It occurred to me yesterday that this podcast may contain spoilers for forthcoming Steven Spielberg film 'The Fabelmans' but I don't know as I haven't seen it yet.

SOMETHING HAS SURVIVED! Back in Spring 2020- the early days of the pandemic- Kieran, Paul and I sat down to record a 'DVD commentary'-style episode on Steven Spielberg's 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' and- just under two years later- here it is for your ear-holes. You can expect us to dwell on the strengths and weaknesses of both this film and the series as a whole (we are not kind to this film's third act, for example), to think ahead on 'Jurassic World: Dominion', as well as talking about Pete Postlethwaite only taking two bullets to the island, dinosaurs and dog-houses and much, much more.
In this episode, featuring very special guests Daryl and Jeanette from Sudden Double Deep, I wrap up my Marvel Phase 2 coverage with a fantastic episode on Peyton Reed's 'Ant-Man'.

Join me later in the year for Marvel Phase 3 coverage!
