Also features annoying kids, the worst superhero ever and that fella that looks like a melted Steth Mcfarlane.

As a little break before we plough back into the fetid quagmire of our usual subject matter, we decided as per the tradition to have a small break and play James' Quiz of the Year which relies on us being able to remember things about the films we have reviewed this year.It goes about as well as you would expect really (that is, James tries his best and everyone else just mucks about like daft kids)

We are heading into Christmas season and with that in mind we bring you the 2013 classic "Mr Scrooge to See You" starring David Ruprecht as some kind of Scrooge who has to go into the future to stop Bob Cratchits offspring from being a Neo-Miser or something. Its very long and nothing happens for a lot of it.You'll hear all about Zammo's calculator, homeless teeth, terrible business sense, the worst santa in the world, EDM soundtracks, oil drum fires and James best Only Fools & Horses impression ever!

Look at this! An almost proper film. Some might say that we have lost our way somewhat but those people would be liars who deserve to be swung about by a Mahar captain.We are of course talking about the 1976 classic At the Earth's Core starring Doug "Doug" McClure and Peter "Whoopee" Cushing in a tale about blokes drilling erm.. to the earths core. There they meet strange pig faced men and strange rubbery beasts as well as ladies with not many clothes on!You will hear so many Simpsons jokes, the sounds of prehistoric monsters, Sexy Eggs, important field advice for drilling and James' favourite banner in a film so far!

As we wend our way deep into autumn (or fall if you are like that) we bring to you 2013s The Thanksgiving house, the simple story or a law lady who inherits a house with a mysterious secret.

Robin Hood: Beyond Sherwood ForestWe may have been away for a little while but we are back now, to take you through the most accurate Robin Hood film since that one with the snake voiced by Terry Thomas. and that had a talking snake.You'll hear all about poor arrow technique, the songs of Space Sting, James suffering from a malady and Mark defending his beloved hometown through the traditional jokes.

We are joined this week by a familiar voice to take you through the 2020 classic Palm Springs starring Jake Peralta and that angry guy from the Spiderman films. Yeah, we know its not a Hallmark film but we think we have earned this as a treat.As usual its the normal mix of time travel, confusion and wondering what is it that makes a name.

We are back dipping our toe into the world of '80s sword and sorcery this week with the classic Deathstalker. A film about a man who...stalks death? Not in a creepy 'stealing your underpants' type way but a scary stabbing way. You'll hear all about reusable wax heads, the perils of jogging, houses made of wigs, strange boy-men, how to walk about boobily and a concise history of UK shot putt legend Geoff Capes!Mark is walking 1 million steps over the next 3 months to raise money for Diabetes UK.

Its that but with chocolate. I don't kno what to tell you really. Sorry?

We finish our Half-Christmas special with the heart-warming classic Alone for Christmas or Bone Alone as its also known. The simple story of Home Alone but with talking dogs in it.
