  • Fan-flipping-tastic

    A brilliant and easy to listen to podcast for film fans. I initially skipped a few interview episodes when not familiar with the guests themselves, but once I was eager for more content, I realised how great every single episode is. It doesn’t matter if you know the guests themselves, just listening to the interviews can prompt you to re-examine films you may have previously loved, hated, or never even heard of

  • Unequal Sequel is my Podcast 'FIND' of 2025. Having exhausted and caught up with all my favourites, including Kermode & Mayo's Take, Empire, Film Stories, You Must Remember this and more, I was running out of options...until I stumbled on these boys. What a back catalogue! My earpods are now set for the foreseable. Cheers guys! 📽

  • Great Podcast

    A great podcast, looking at guests Best, Worse and Dream sequels in movies. Also I enjoy the box set mentality series as they talk about a movie series, film by film.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Nick Helm The Prequel
Q: What is your dream prequel?
He imagines a Jaws prequel centered on Matt Hooper aboard the Aurora, potentially a spy-adventure style film with high-concept set pieces like car chases and underwater sequences, tying back to Jaws lore.
Nick Helm The Prequel
Q: What is your worst ever prequel?
He argues Prometheus is the weaker of the two Alien prequels because it's style over substance and Coventant has an even more downbeat and unsatisfying arc, despite moments of strong visuals.
Nick Helm The Prequel
Q: What is your best ever prequel?
Nick Helm says Pearl is his best ever prequel due to its originality, strong lead performance, and how it expands the story of the original while standing strongly on its own.
Nic Sampson
Q: What sequel seemed like a bad idea, but you ended up liking?
Fast and Furious 5 was a revelation.
Nic Sampson
Q: What is your most disappointing sequel?
I was really disappointed with Jurassic World.
