So they put Deadpool and Nick Fury in a film together but they're not playing Deadpool or Nick Fury... kind of. Georgia's wild card pick brings us to 2017 and "The Hitman's Bodyguard": a film that wanted all the James Bond with all of the Deadpool 2 different actors doing their best Samuel L. Jackson impression (hint: one of them is Samuel L. Jackson). Join your favourite transatlantic film review crew – Ian, Liam, Ellie, and Georgia – as we head to Amsterdam and pretend it's England. It's a Triple A rated 29th episode as we discuss:
- The recent casting buzz about Tom Hardy and Ian makes a case for a 1-off Idris Elba Bond film.
- What was the budget for Hitman's Bodyguard and why did they shoot in Amsterdam
- What key decision was made about the script 2 weeks before shooting
- What's the swear count on Samuel L. Jackson in this film
- Is it accurate to call Ryan Reynolds the straight man in this film?
- Can anyone recall the actual story?
- Who has given Michelle Pfeiffer competition for a special place in Liam's heart
- Is the correct term inoffensive or unoffensive
- We pull double duty on media theorists this week
- Whether or not The Hitman's Bodyguard is the best film ever
