Nick and Alastair descend into the dark side of tech, just for a change, with new black-comedy drama movie Companion and technothriller comic W0rldtr33.
But first, Nick’s read a huge wedge of comics from Marvel’s new Ultimate line, while Alastair’s finally seen Oscar-dominating movie Anora, not to mention having some thoughts on the award results as a whole.
And then they head off into the mountains for Companion (20:34), a new movie somewhere on the cross-section of Get Out and Black Mirror. One major aspect of the premise is spoilt (although it’s also in the trailer) so if you want to see the film completely pure, don’t listen yet.
Last of all, they catch up with the first two volumes of W0rldtr33 (33:14), a dark internet thriller comic by James Tynion IV and Fernando Blanco. How has the series shaped up since they covered the first issue back in 2023?
