This weeks episode is a quick one as Stu and I discuss the trainwreck that is the latest Fantastic Four film. Listen as we don't hold back on our thoughts of the film as we record post screening. Seriously it was almost like therapy recording this episode. Be warned there are spoilers in this review (but honestly we're saving you money watching this film), and also apologies in advance some bad language was used during this episode. As always it would make our day if you could take a couple of minutes to rate and reviews us on iTunes or drop us some feedback below! Really keen to have your input in the show. -Billy This week's discussion topic:  Post Fantastic Four review (Spoilers) Get it from Podomatic here Get it from Itunes here Stu (stu@geekofoz.com) Billy (@aqualec, billy@geekofoz.com)

Mild mannered 30-somethings start proclaiming that their childhoods are being violated as if under an attack from a Viking horde, which of course is utter nonsense.

This may not be the definitive Ninja Turtles experience, but it’s far from the worst thing that has had the Turtles name slapped on it over the years. So New York City is under threat from the evil Foot Clan, a gang of ragamuffins who are running amuck, untouched by authorities. Luckily, the dogged April O’Neil (Megan Fox) is hot on their heels...
