Welcome back to We Needed Roads, where this episode we take two films with the exact same plot… and force them into a death match until only one crawls out covered in bloody carnage and in desperate need of a trip to the hospital!This week: two films, one mission — save your sister from a satanic cult.One does it with dark comedy, ridiculous violence, and rich people getting what they deserve…The other? well basically the same but with a bit more directorial flair and groovier music It’s Ready or Not 2: Here I Come vs They Will Kill You.Same premise. Very different vibes.Neil and David are joined by Clare from @W-Rated as only one film can survive If you love movies, TV, geek culture or listening to four people passionately argue about things that haven’t even released yet… give us a LIKE, drop a COMMENT, and hit SUBSCRIBE so we can lurk in your algorithm foreverFollow We Needed Roads Podcast on the socials:🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://twitter.com/NeededRoads📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/weneededroads🎵 TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@weneededroadspodcast🎧 Follow us on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0E31ucDQy7Ha5PRdtahAjb?si=50a97260f09f4ad7👤 Our SocialsNeilhttps://bsky.app/profile/neilg78.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/neil_gregory78Neil’s Substack:https://substack.com/@greggors78Davidhttps://bsky.app/profile/llongd.bsky.social@llongd.bsky.social🎙 Our GuestClare Ellen Hope📸 https://www.instagram.com/clareellenhope🐦 https://x.com/clareellenhope🎵 https://www.tiktok.com/@clareellenhope1?lang=en-GBHer podcast – W Rated:🐦 https://x.com/WRatedPod🎧 https://open.spotify.com/show/2x7Ag7oDjg1e9mKOw9eGDO?si=5706fc78b32e41fa🚗 Fund Our Quest for a DeLoreanhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/Weneededroads

Welcome back to We Needed Roads, the podcast that proves you don’t need qualifications, training, or even basic emotional stability to be an astronaut...sorry review films on the internet, just a mic, a take, and the confidence of a man explaining astrophysics after two small beers.

This week, we’re diving headfirst into Project Hail Mary—a story about a guy who wakes up alone in space, confused, terrified, and wildly underqualified… so basically, Jose on a Monday morning.J

ose is here, ready to latch onto any weird alien creature like it’s his new best mate—or potential pet—and honestly, we’re one episode away from him trying to fire him into space.

Marie’s here too, and look—statistically speaking, there’s a very high chance she’s about to emotionally imprint on something in this film. Could be a character, could be a concept, could be a rock spider with backstory—we’ll find out together.

We’re talking science, survival, loneliness, existential dread, and whether humanity’s best hope is really just “send one bloke into space and hope for the best?'

Yes, it is especially if that mans Ryan Gosling So grab your space suits, question your life choices, and remember—if this mission fails… it’s probably Jose's fault.

Bold move watching a whole season hours before recording—so let’s not pretend this episode isn’t powered by caffeine, chaos, and Neil desperately trying to keep things on the rails.Welcome to our Star Trek: Starfleet Academy spoiler special, where the syllabus includes: deep lore dives, unhinged takes, and Jose and Marie trying to remember character names like they’re cramming for an exam they absolutely didn’t revise for.Neil is, of course, in his element—our resident lore master, ready to break down everything from Federation politics to the tiniest canon detail like he personally helped write Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.Jose has technically finished the show… but emotionally? Spiritually? Debatable. Expect vibes, chaos, and at least one take that makes Neil briefly reconsider doing this podcast.And Marie—let’s be honest—only showed up because Neil promised heated Klingonry. Was it worth it? Did she get what she came for? Or has she just accidentally made another sci-fi obsession her entire personality? History suggests we already know the answer.We’re talking best moments, worst decisions, standout characters, questionable plot choices, and whether this is a worthy addition to the Star Trek universe—or one that should’ve stayed in the holodeck.⚠️ FULL SPOILERS throughout ⚠️Drop your thoughts in the comments—did you love it, hate it, or are you still trying to figure out what Neil was on about?Subscribe for more reviews, rants, and absolute nonsense from We Needed Roads
