90: Shanghai Noon, Cowboy Nonsense and Jackie Chan’s charm

This week we saddle up for the limp 2003 action buddy comedy Shanghai Noon. There’s East meets West, there’s the ever watchable Jackie Chan and hit-and-miss charmer Owen Wilson. There’s some buddy movie chat and every excuse is made to discuss anything but this dull dross.
Plus: Joe gets waylaid by a call to the RSPB.

The best Forgot You Forgot offerings make it onto the sacred Communal List - who knows, one day, fate (or our deeply flawed selection process) might smile upon your Forgot You Forgot.

You can also follow Adam @errorofways on Letterboxd; he rates and reviews the films he watches. The comments section is a very cool place to be.

Also, be a pal: tell your chums, rate us, review us, shout our name into the void - whatever helps spread the word.

Welcome to the home of forgotten films. Each week, Joe Devine & Adam Richmond discuss a different film that they’ve seen before, but forgotten existed. They discuss cinema, memory, culture and history - as well as play silly games about cheese, budgets, and re-casting.

Listeners needn’t have seen the film, but are welcome to watch (or re-watch) before episodes for a different perspective. And at the end of each show, Adam & Joe read out forgotten film lists to each other, to find the film that becomes the focus for next week’s episode.
