    AML: The Master Of The Podcast Rope-A-Dope
    2025/08/30


    Gary, Terry, and Graham are back with another edition of Action Movie Landfill. This time, Gary has dragged out John Woo’s 1996 nuclear heist thriller, Broken Arrow.

    Woo arrived in Hollywood with a reputation for high-octane Hong Kong action movies, and just a year later he’d cement his legacy with the classic Face/Off, once again teaming up with John Travolta. But how much does Broken Arrow serve as a warm-up for Face/Off — or is the stronger link to screenwriter Graham Yost, the man who wrote the script for Speed?

    For just over an hour, the gang rummage through desert chases, pantomime villainy, Hans Zimmer guitar riffs, and the question of whether this film belongs in the landfill.

  • Old gags and deadbeat dads - Casino Royale (1967)

    Old gags and deadbeat dads - Casino Royale (1967)
    2025/04/29


    After reacting to the news that control of the James Bond movies franchise we spend some time on the 1967 screwball comedy adaptation of Casino Royale, a film that sits outside the official franchise and is not received with universal acclaim.

    Gary, Graham and Terry reflect on the film's troubled production which featured an all star cast but has 5 (five) directors.

  • Action Movie Landfill - The Rock

    Action Movie Landfill - The Rock
    2025/02/08


    The Oddjob Pod returns with another edition of the Action Movie Landfill.
    On each episode of the Landfil, Gary, Graham and Terry fish out a DVD from the vast, imaginary pile of action movies from the sell-thriugh era and decide of they shoud be placed on the shelf or returned to the Landfill.
    In this edition we have unearthed Michael Bay's The Rock starring Ed Harris, Nicholas Cage and Sean Connery. Many Bond fans have looked at Connery's character, John Mason; a retired SAS officer incarcertaed in the US for 30 years and wonder if this Mason is an alternative unuverse James Bond. The film makers have been at pains to deny this.
    In any event it is a film with much to admire and the Oddjob Pod trio spend a happy hour and a half ruminating on this 90s classic.

  • The Five Stages of Grief - No Time To Die

    The Five Stages of Grief - No Time To Die
    2024/06/30

    Our film-by-film review of all the Eon-produced James Bond films comes to a close with the latest release, the 2019 film No Time To Die, which was delayed until 2021 due to the pandemic lockdown.

    Given its denouement, this film takes a somewhat darker tone the closer it gets to the conclusion. As Graham says, "It's not your typical ITV4 James Bond film." Like all Daniel Craig Bond films, this one has an emotional depth that is usually absent in earlier entries.

    Given the uncertainty of the future of the character and the longevity of the intellectual property, we find ourselves wondering what will become of the franchise and ask ourselves: will James Bond return?

    2024/04/15


    The Oddjob Pod crew are back at the Action Movie Landfil. This time is was Gary's turn to fish out a dusty VHS, slot it into the machine and see if it's worth keeping or chucking back on the pile.

    His choice? An absolute doozy: Paul Michael Glazer's distopian sci-fi actioner, The Running Man starring Arnold Scwarzenegger.

  • The name's Brown, James Brown - Spectre

    The name's Brown, James Brown - Spectre
    2024/03/14


    In this particularly brown episode of The Oddjob Pod, Gary, Terry and Graham don their colour corrected glasses and ceremonial Blofeld wigs and take a close look at Spectre.

    This film was hugely anticipated after the success of Skyfall but doesn't quite land in the way it should despite being a beautifully shot film and a fine example of the Brown genre.
