It's the most glittering evening of the year! The red carpet has been laid out, Stig is already slaughtered on cheap champagne and everyone is dressed in the finest evening attire. It's THE BIGGIES!

In the summer of 2020, a man called Oodles called out for compatriots to start a new podcast. Several people said yes. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? This week, we're talking about the stupid, boneheaded, utterly astonishingly ridiculous things that have been done or released in the media over the years. Bad movies, stupid business decisions, terrible sequels, the whole gamut. It gets ranty. But before all that, we talked about: Ryukahr The Terror Monster Hunter: Rise CONTACT

2017's Justice League was one of the biggest cinematic turkeys of the 21st Century. It was an absolute mess. So after a significant fan campaign, 2021 brings us the original director's vision for the film in Zack Snyder's Justice League, a 4 hour long retooling of the original film he intended to make. But is it any good? Well Stig has brought Oodles and Gadget along to find that out for ourselves. We go through in significant detail the plot of the film, what we liked, what we disliked and how we
