We've hit the big 6-0, and to celebrate we go on a pun-ridden journey of The Lovely Bones, A Single Man, The Crazies, Leap Year, and Micmacs. We also muse on the BAFTAs, the Odeon/Alice in Wonderland saga and the pluralisation of mathematics, plus of course This Week in Movie History. Desert Island Flicks this week is best French film.

The Duncan Jones acceptance speech we refer to towards the end:

From werewolves to the World Cup, from Harlem to harmless romcoms, our 59th episode is packed full of The Wolfman, Invictus, Precious (based on the novel 'Push' by Sapphire), Valentine's Day and It's Complicated. Plus a look at the Oscar nominations, proper film critic Andrew Collins recommends his favourite undiscovered gem of a film from last year, In This Week In Movie History, and Desert Island Flicks features the best Clint Eastwood films.

A bumper episode - we cover New Moon (terrible), The Box (weird), and Law Abiding Citizen (more fun than it should be). Paul somehow conjures up the idea of giant mechanical spider porn, Jon turns an intended compliment into something a bit creepy, and Jen gets worked up over vampires, but probably not how you expect. We've also got an interview with journalist and podcasting legend Andrew Collins, This Week in Movie History, and Desert Island Flicks covers "best box movie" because the idea amused us.

Paranormal Activity comes under the MB spotlight this week, together with discussing the Twilight phenomenon (proper review of New Moon next time), and the second half of our interview with screenwriter David Bloom. We also narrowly skirt a libellous discussion about Silvio Berlusconi, talk about Crank 2, Tropic Thunder, The Prestige, and Stuck, plus This Week in Movie History, and Desert Island Flicks covers best "found footage" movie.
