  • #11 Jurassic Park
    Feb 11 2026

    Join Martin, Adam, Luke, and David on the Four Takes Movie Podcast as they travel back to 1993 (and 65 million years ago) to discuss Steven Spielberg’s masterpiece, Jurassic Park. In this episode, the guys spare no expense in breaking down the classic, covering everything from the terrifying kitchen scene to the questionable 90s fashion. You’ll hear the tragic tale of a young Martin abandoning his chatting parents in a Great Yarmouth cinema to watch the movie in peace, and join the crew as they investigate why Richard Attenborough’s Scottish accent disappears, reappears for monologues, and drifts into London territory depending on his ice cream consumption.


    The team also uncovers Dennis Nedry’s secret wardrobe choices, revealing that the computer hacker is wearing the exact same outfits as the cast of The Goonies in every scene. They marvel at Lex’s ability to hack a Unix system while holding a computer mouse like a giant joint of ham—a technique dubbed the "meat fist"—and take a fond look back at the cinematic history of getting eaten while hiding in a bathroom. Finally, the crew catches up on what they've been bingeing (from Fallout to Marty Supreme) before firing up the DeLorean for next week's discussion on Back to the Future.

    Dec 30 2025

    This week on the Four Takes Movie Podcast, the team trades the high-speed nostalgia of seeing Back to the Future in IMAX for the rain-soaked, soul-crushing popcorn movie that is David Fincher's 1995 masterpiece, Seven (or Se7en).


    Recorded on November 5th, the discussion is punctuated by the sound of fireworks—or "gunshots," depending on how much the film has already rattled your nerves—as the hosts endeavour to record audio while the great British public are outside celebrating Bonfire Night, the annual tradition where we celebrate a man who tried to blow up the houses of Parliament.


    You can expect to hear Adam’s emotional crisis unfold in real-time as he realizes that Morgan Freeman playing a world weary detective is significantly less upbeat than his usual God-like roles.


    Adam is quite certain the film has permanently harmed his soul, while the others dismiss it as mere mainstream light horror. The team dive deep into the seven deadly sins, featuring a sloth-related jump scare that nearly forced caused a trouser emergency and a debate on whether Gwyneth Paltrow’s work in a box might actually be her finest performance to date.


    The conversation also takes a nostalgic turn as the hosts reminisce about the horrors of 1995 internet, where one would stay up all night just to see half a boob, and why the nameless, gritty city featured in Seven is basically Gotham but worse.


    You will hear the tale of how Brad Pitt actually sliced his arm to the bone during a chase scene, only for the take to be scrapped anyway, and learn why the FBI tracking your library books is the original Big Brother move.


    From the world's most nervous actor making everyone sweaty to the Nine Inch Nails remixes that set the bleak tone, the sources show the group eventually agreeing that the film is a near-perfect masterpiece.


    Stick around until the end to hear the lads pivot from severed heads to prehistoric predators as they announce their next film for review


    Whether you are here for the cinematic misery or just to hear Adam be a jittering wreck, this episode has it all.

  • #9 The Running Man
    Oct 27 2025

    It's time to start running! Get ready for an 80s overload as the Four Takes team tackles 1987's The Running Man!

    Join Martin, Adam, Luke, and David as they dissect a dystopian future where Arnold Schwarzenegger is forced to fight for his life on a violent game show, all while dodging excessive product placement and helicopter footage lifted straight from other movies.

    They dive into why author Stephen King (or, Richard Bachman, depending on who you ask) wanted his name scrubbed from this high-octane spectacle. Marvel at the amazing practical special effects, including a prison break where a character's head explodes so realistically, it was hard to figure out how they achieved it without CGI.

    Richards, the accused Butcher of Bakersfield, unleashes a barrage of catchphrases, confirming he’ll be back, but only in a rerun. Meet the flamboyant professional killers, including Professor Subzero (who isn't really a professor) and Dynamo, the opera singer who looks like a milk float with lights.

    The team also discuss how the protagonists manage to solve the resistance’s biggest dilemma in about 30 seconds, Killian’s shockingly sensitive bodyguard, and how the Film itself is linked with the 80's Christmas classic "Scrooged" in more ways than one.

    Tune in to find out why this simple, fast-paced action flick is pure 80s fun and which 1995 psychological thriller the Team will be taking on next time.
