They're the best there is at what they do, but what they do is... discuss films from a few months ago.
That's right, arriving fashionably late to the party we bring you the scintillating cinematic discussion you deserve! Nick and Tom hunt and gather their thoughts on Horizon: Zero Dawn. The Screengrab Returns! Nick and Henry get down with the Get Out. We all Run Through The Jungle as we review Kong: Skull Island. And X marks the spot for the most treasured outing for Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. All this and as well as the usual, ahem, 'bantz'.

It's the first ever Watch If Awards!
Are they Watchifscars? Are they the Watchiffies? We don't know either but what we DO know is that the decisions made by our panel of cinema connoisseurs (it's just Tom, Nick, Henry and Ian) will shake Hollywood to its core. We'll be covering all the traditional categories as well as some awards personally sponsored by each presenter to acknowledge some of the more nuanced successes (and failures) in this latest year of film. The coveted 'Spud Award' is definitely one to follow closely. Unlike some award ceremonies maybe beginning with 'A' and ending in 'cademy Award', we like to lay our decision-making bare. If our discussion over who should win reaches breaking point, we have a series of challenges to break the tie and are definitely not utterly ridiculous, arbitrary ways to avoid killing each other. So don your best duds and join us on the red carpet for what promises to be the most prestigious award ceremony ever held on this podcast ever... Ever.
Y'right listeners?
What you been up to... for just over a week? Well if that obscure reference doesn't clue you in then check out our latest episode. We send Ian and Henry deep into the drug-addled, nostalgic follow up to Trainspotting, T2. Nick and Ian build their case (brick by brick?) for why Lego Batman is the movie the Caped Crusader has been needing for a while. And finally we fire up the Watch If-puter to find who should be sitting in the director's chair for 'The Batman' (yes we know it's Matt Reeves now). So click play, not for the podcast you deserve, but the one you need.
That's no moon, that's a big, massive, review filled episode of Watch If Podcast!
What with it being Awards season, we in the UK find our cinemas packed with competing films every January. But which are actually worth leaving the house for? Watch If is here to help guide and advise you through this busy time. Ian and Henry go fully nocturnal with Live By Night, Nick goes fully pacifist with Hacksaw Ridge, and Tom goes fully loud about Silence. We also have M Night Shyamalan up to his old tricks with the divisive Split, but is that good or bad? We find out if Assassin's Creed is the successful video game movie adaptation we've been waiting for. We have a review for xXx ... because they can't all be awards contenders... And if you want to stay at home, we let you know if Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events is a let down or like literally the best thing Henry's seen in his whole life - like, oh my god. And we top it all off with a heated debate over La La Land, though worry not - we mostly refrain from bursting into song while shouting at each other.
