About
In a nutshell, ’101 Films…’ is a podcast dedicated to the films you probably should have seen, but for some reason never quite got round to watching… plus a few obscure ones that you’ve probably never heard of but should watch anyway.
After dabbling with podcasts on our previous blog, ‘101 Video Games That Made My Life Slightly Better‘, we were keen to make our next project a dedicated podcast, and the idea of ’101 Films You Should Have Seen’ was born. The original notion was to simply create a series of 101 podcasts dedicated to our favourite films, but we quickly realised that would mean us spending the next 2 years re-watching a load of films we’ve already seen. Then we hit on the idea of film recommendations, and came up with a list of films that one of us had seen, but for some reason the other one hadn’t – either because the film is too obscure (e.g. Black Cat, White Cat) or because, for some inexplicable reason, we never quite got round to seeing it when it first came out (e.g. Top Gun).
However, we need your help to complete the list – do you have any films you’d recommend for us to watch for future podcasts? The only criterion for inclusion is that at least one of us should not have seen the film before: simple! Please list your recommendations in the box below, along with the reason why you like each film, and we’ll try to include them in future recordings.
We’ll be posting a new podcast every Thursday, so join us each week as we laugh in the face of each other’s film recommendations and attempt to look knowledgeable by regurgitating stuff we ‘ve just read on Wikipedia.

Dear Ian and Lewis,
Very much enjoying the Podcasts despite you rubbishing my suggestion of Garden State.
I look forward to hearing your review of Zatoichi – but Lewis – please give Ian some extra nihongo classes before you get round to that one.
domo!
cheers
Sam
ps Ian’s laugh is too loud. He should be made to sit in the bathroom and record from there whilst the mike is in the living room.
Your podcasts are addictive. Have listened to most of the ones posted on your old blog (the one about games) and now I’m hooked on these film ones as well.
Keep up the good work! Love your humour.
Thanks oldschool, glad to know someone is enjoying them out there (and even more surprisingly shares our sense of humour!). Will check out your blog.
Thanks for checking out my blog. Much appreciated!
