It's time to get art-house up in here with Paul and Wayne!
Join the fellers for an achingly poignant yet somehow penis-joke-laden review of Guillermo del Toro's latest artistic offering, The Shape of Water. The boys also wax lyrical on their most anticipated releases this year before getting straight up nostalgic on the top ten hidden gems of the noughties! How many have you seen?
Then they peer into their crystal balls (no, it's not a testicle reference) and sound off on their most anticipated films of 2018.
You'll laugh at the wisecracking dumbasses, you'll cry at the petty infighting, and you'll pee at some stage during this episode because it's slightly longer than normal!
