The second reel of the monthly magazine style podcast for film nerds, as the Adamsons close out their last regular episode of 2022 with a discussion of the Lord of the Rings franchise. Early false starts and the 1970s animated version are followed by Peter Jackson's peerless original trilogy, the Hobbit follow up, the new TV series and what it all means for cinema and the fantasy genre as a whole.

Reel 1 is available to download now, and a special bonus episode will be out soon to finish the year.

2022 A Kubrick Odyssey: The Complete Stanley Kubrick Filmography

The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd.

James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So is James Adamson, his imaginatively named son and co-host. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we're fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into tall tales of potentially great films that never got made, overlooked classics you need to see, and rants about remakes that should never have been made at all.
