RoboCop 3 - Caravan Of Garbage Aug 31, 2023

Show notes

By RoboCop 3 the good people at Orion knew what kind of audience the franchise solely appealed to, children. This obviously wasn't true but for this final entry in the original RoboCop saga things take a PG turn with toned down violence, satire and the disapperence of Peter Weller for Robert John Burke. Sure he has a jet pack and a flame thrower now and there's a Japanese Cyborg ninja but none of it really comes together. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review!

A new Star Wars series has landed and let me tell you it's better than The Book Of Boba Fett but not as good as Andor we reckon.

RoboCop 2 - Caravan Of Garbage Aug 24, 2023

Show notes

RoboCop 2 was inevitable after the succcess of the original. And you know what? It could have been much worse. With a more compotent cyborg enemy, some solid comedic moments and Peter Weller being at the top of his game in terms of RoboCop sequels this remains the best case scenario despite some obvious shortcomings. Thanks for watching!

RoboCop - Caravan of Garbage Aug 18, 2023

Show notes

The original RoboCop from 1987 is incredible. Directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring Peter Weller as the titular RoboCop/Alex Murphy it remains one of the best sci-fi films of all time. With its retro futuristic, satirical and hyper-violent aesthetic it truly is a one of a kind experience that will never be replicated. Despite RoboCop 2, RoboCop 3, the 2014 reboot, the two tv series, multiple games and upcoming legacy sequel. Thanks for watching!

Grand Admiral Thrawn will make his live action debut in Ashoka play again by Lars Mikkelsen. So in preperation for that we revisit the two part finale of Star Wars: Rebels Family Reunion and Farewell. Setting the scene with space whales, the disapperence of Ezra Bridger and Thrawn, Captain Rex on the Endor strike force and a time travel tree this series is considered some of the best Star Wars ever created.

Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows - Caravan of Garbage Aug 03, 2023

Show notes

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 turned out to be the biggest box office hit from the length of the franchise so naturally the green light was given to it's 2016 sequel. This time we get all the things kids loved from the 1987 series, Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady, the Technodrome, Casey Jones and more! But it didn't land in the same way as the first. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review!
