We've lost count of how many times we've seen The Two Towers, a film Rob reckons he could recite beginning to end (especially the Gollum scenes). As before, there's no fandom experiment going on here - we're simply watching something we all love, occasionally delving into the books and mentioning the Appendices too much.
Enjoy the episode and join us next week for The Return of the King!

Welcome, listeners, to a very expected journey - we’re finally taking on Lord Of The Rings.
Since The Fellowship Of The Ring was released in 2001, no Christmas has been complete for our hosts without a touch of Tolkien’s world. We’re not trying to convince one of us to like something, or to see if we’re still fans - this is an indulgent way of rewatching something we love dearly and then to babble on about it for ages. It is, as Boromir would say, a gift - a gift to ourselves.
Merry us.
This episode starts with a short history of director Peter Jackson’s pre-Rings career, after which we go through the film act by act and just enjoy the heck out of it.
See you next week for The Two Towers.

You asked for it, and we did it - we've watched Galaxy Quest, and we'd like you to join us as we talk about it.
In a welcome departure from the bleakness of the Alien universe, in this episode of Redshirt Cinema Club we've delayed our departure for Middle-earth by a week and watched what has been by far our most requested film the affectionate Star Trek parody, Galaxy Quest.
All three of us are officially Star Trek fans now, so Galaxy Quest has a lot to live up to. Can this satire deliver in an era when the Next Generation movies were struggling? Will we get all the in-jokes? Is Sigourney Weaver just going to be in every film we watch now? Listen on to find out!

This week - excitement at the return of Ridley Scott as our Alien adventure takes us up to 2012’s origin story, Prometheus. Can it live up to Scott’s spectacular original? Or is it actually quite a lot like Alien Vs Predator? To paraphrase Lawrence of Arabia, "Certainly it's bad... the trick is not minding that it's bad".

Join us as we continue our journey through the Alien series with Alien 3.
David Fincher's 1992 film is dark and divisive. Following a difficult production, the film reviewed badly and disappointed fans of the more cohesive Alien and Aliens. Over time the film has developed a sympathetic cult following of ardent supporters - but will Nath, Rob, and Dave be among them? Listen to find out!

After the meticulous horror of Ridley Scott's Alien comes the muscular genre perfection of James Cameron's Aliens. Have we had two better films in a row yet on Redshirt Cinema Club? Ahaha, no, we have not.
Join us as we battle past simply enjoying the heck out of this movie and try to say something meaningful and worthwhile. How does Aliens expand the horizons of Alien while remaining consistent to its core ideas? What gives the film its slick momentum and intensity? And look - LOOK - at how cool everything is! Just look at it!
Are we still Alien fans? Yes we are, but join us anyway!

A new chapter dawns as Redshirt Cinema Club returns both to the silver screen and to space with the Alien series - a set of movies we'd all consider ourselves fans of despite acknowledging lots of them are a bit rubbish. As we take this journey through one of cinema's most iconic franchises we'll be repeatedly asking ourselves the question - are we still Alien fans? Let's find out!

It's Dave's last chance. One final double bill of Doctor Who. One last attempt at drawing out the Whovian we're convinced lurks within. Can Jodie Whittaker's Doctor swoop in and save the day? This Bond-inspired romp is unlike any Who we've watched so far, featuring car chases, globe-trotting set pieces and Lenny Henry. What will Dave make of it?

Dave's Doctor Who enjoyment rollercoaster took a plunge last week thanks to the Weeping Angels unforgivably breaking both necks and rules - can we get him back on track with today's episode, 'Heaven Sent'? A mature, challenging fan-favourite from the Capaldi era, this surely has the makings of something Dave will love. Let's find out what he makes of it!

Rogue Time Lord Rob continues his daring journey across time and space (or more accurately: through Dr Who, chronologically) by showing bewildered human companion Dave perhaps our favourite single episode of the whole show - the David Tennant-starring 'Midnight'.
How will Dave take to having a new Doctor in the Tardis? Will he understand JUST HOW GOOD THIS EPISODE IS? And will it make Dave a Whovian? Let's find out!
SPECIAL NOTICE - we have our first ever Patreon-only bonus episode arriving this week on Wednesday 18th September, where we'll be watching the first appearance of the weeping angels in 'Blink'!

It's Dave's turn! After three months of forcing Rob to watch Star Trek the eye of fandom turns on our former captain - it's time to show Dave some Doctor Who. We're starting this week with two episodes from the Christoper Eccleston era - 'Rose' and 'Dalek'. It's a big leap from cutting edge sci-fi cinema to Saturday nights on the BBC in 2005, so can this most iconic of British institutions win a new fan? Can we make Dave a Whovian? Let's find out!

It's over! It's just beginning! Join us to celebrate the completion of our original mission with an Official and Scientific ranking of every Star Trek movie, before discussing our SECRET PLANS for the future.
Which aren't secret at all. We're going to carry on making Redshirt Cinema Club! Watching and rewatching our favourite film series and sharing the journey with you. We're starting with a few weeks of Dr Who (which OK is television but which Dave has NEVER SEEN - sound familiar?) before taking on the world of Alien, and then, as a Christmas special, The Lord Of The Rings.
We've also started a Patreon if you'd like to support us in making the podcast. Members at the $5 Commander tier will get access to two bonus podcasts every month, and we're also making Redshirt Cinema Club available on YouTube and starting a monthly newsletter, The Civilian Observer. If you'd like to join there are more details at patreon.com/RedshirtCinemaClub
Thank you so much for your support so far! We're very excited about what the future holds.

This week the team - including official Star Trek Fan™ Robert Pearson - are discussing Star Trek Into Darkness (NO COLONS) the second film of the JJ Abrams-led Kelvin timeline.
Everyone agrees this is a pretty good action movie, but is it good Star Trek? Join the redshirts as they debate the rebooted timeline's reluctance to seek out new anything, the disputed merits of Benedict Cumberbatch, and why the holy trinity seems to be down to just two...
Is Rob still a Star Trek fan? Listen to find out!

It's all change on the Enterprise (and the entire timeline, actually) as a new cast and crew take the helm of our beloved franchise. But change isn't necessarily good, and neither are some of the accents...
Will the redshirts see past all the lens flare? Can Leonard Nimoy fulfil the needs of the many? And is Karl Urban's Dr McCoy inspired or merely an imitation? We'll be hotly contesting all of the above AND MORE in this episode, before broaching the most important question of them all - is Rob a Star Trek fan yet?

It's the end of an era! But is it any good? The Redshirt Cinema Club team are divided, but their discussion includes the virtues of young Tom Hardy, where the Remans have been hiding all this time, and whether Star Trek has any big ideas that aren't crashing the ship or killing off the second-billed star of the franchise.
