  • And we are back with another special theme to keep y'all excited for our full return later this year. For the next four episodes, we have former guest and video editor at TRIM, Lorna Searl joining as co-host alongside Jabriel, The Newbie. On this episode, we chat about what we've been up to this summer, the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes and the next theme; Summer Blockbusters. For the first time ever, we're going to be reviewing films that are still in cinemas across the world, so be aware that there WILL be spoilers.


    So we're going to be tackling this summer's best 3 films:

    Missions Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1

    Barbie

    Oppenheimer


    Get ready because this one was amazing to do, and also a bit of a challenge.


    Love y'all

  • YO WHAT IS UP FRIENDS!


    So remember how we promised a little bit of content between seasons. Well here's a (not so) little episode Oliver and Jabriel recorded recently. On this episode we chat about a multitude of different things from superhero fatigue to cinema fatigue, not-so-good movies we kind of want to watch again, and yeah, basically just shooting the shit.

  • On this episode, we head outside to record in the sunny greens of Talacre Gardens (we apologise for the drop in audio quality - we don't apologise for the lols). On this one, we recap the last few weeks including attending The Podcast Show 2023, a few updates for what's going on with The Movie Newbie and where we want to take it from here, and the usual segment of what we've been watching. We'll be back with Season 5 very very soon, but until then..


    Tchau tchau for now my people.

    We are The Movie Newbie and we are here make you think about Scott Pilgrim and get sad and stuff! That’s right, for the third and final entry in our Bad Romance, our merry little band of podcasters is joining forces with musician Nico Baviere to discuss Edgar Wright’s 2010 cult favourite Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, the Michael Cera-starring adaptation of the beloved Bryan Lee O’Malley graphic novels. This was a (Sex) Bob-omb of giggles and riffs and we had a blast recording it, so we hope you enjoy! 


    P.S. As soon as you’re done listening to this episode, be sure to check out the new EP One Eye'd Hound by Nico

  • "It is a restless moment. She has kept her head lowered... to give him a chance to come closer."


    Can you hear the sound of raindrops on the tin rooftops? Can you smell the broth from the corner noodle bar? Can you see the steam rising from the wet pavement? For the second episode in our Bad Romance series, The Movie Newbie is joined by a friend of the show Ahmad Aboushagor to dissect one of the most critically acclaimed films of the 21st century, Wong Kar Wai’s In the Mood for Love, a tragic period drama set in 1960s British Hong Kong. Driven by two star-making performances from Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung, it’s a sensuous story about quiet suffering, unspoken attraction, and the universal languages of love and desire. 
    Join us, won’t you?

  • “Please let me keep this memory, just this one.”


    The time has come. The children have been put to bed and the adults are back in business. Oliver is finally returning to his rightful place picking out the next theme for The Movie Newbie. For this final series in our latest season, we’re getting lovesick with BAD ROMANCE — a study of toxic, frustrated romances depicted on the silver screen. 


    In this episode, we’re talking about one of Oliver’s favourite movies of all time (he’s serious this time)… Michel Gondry’s 2004 gonzo sci-fi masterpiece Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, starring Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet in the unforgettable roles of Joel and Clementine. To make the proceedings even spicier, we’re delighted to be joined by two outstanding guests, directing duo Jordan Sellers and Manu Ausin of the London-based production house Soup of the Day Pictures (check out their content in the link below). So get your tissues ready and let’s meet in Montauk for this very special episode.
