Ep 144: Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Welcome to our review of Sonic the Hedgehog. Or the one in which Rob Daniel discovers an echidna is a real animal... In a bumper episode, Rob D & Rob Wallis deliver their verdict on this year's Oscars (spoiler: the term "trainwreck" is used), and Rob D reveals his thoughts on the 1978 version of Death on the Nile, and how it compares to the Branaghvision version. Then onto the review of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, a follow-up that arrives only two years after the first instalment, but because part one was released as the world went into lockdown it seems aeons ago. What do the pair make of this follow-up? Listen in to find out. Rob Wallis also mentions an article he had previously written on the Poirot movies. That excellent read can be found by clicking here.
