Episode 77 - "I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle"

Well, our intended guest for this episode got lost in the time stream so this episode you're left with the podcast veterans "Mike-800" and "DK-1000" (Cyberdyne Podcaster Models 101). But if you thought it would be a lighter, shorter episode then whoo boy are you in for a surprise. We're following up last year's review of 'The Terminator' by looking at the hugely famous and influential sequel 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day', and our dynamic duo have a LOT to say about it. There's a miniature deep dive into the making of the film, a thorough review, an examination of the groundbreaking effects, the deep science-fiction plotting, the moral lessons, the iconic lines and so much more including a look at the various special editions. So "come with us if you want to listen" to a discussion of arguably the greatest sequel ever made. "Hasta la vista, baby!"

Cinema Classics Number 4 - "It's a madhouse! A MAAAADHOUSE!!!"

With the Kingdom having just opened it's gates to cinema patrons we here at Cinema Classics felt it was a good time to look back at the original 1968 classic 'Planet of the Apes'. Our regular Cornelius and Taylor (aka Mike & D.K) are both here sharing host duties. They're joined by first time Silver Screen guest and Planet of the Apes superfan Nita from Sci-Fi Queens Podcast. Our wise trio will discuss cultural impact, underlying themes, origins, personal opinions and much more, including a whole lot of quoting from both the movie and a particular classic Simpsons episode (you know the one, I'm sure). So obey the Lawgiver and step with us into the Forbidden Zone as we dissect this iconic science-fiction classic.

"Get your stinkin' paws off me you damned, dirty ape!"

D.K's Cult Classics Episode 17 - "Ah, they're young: young people don't have too much fear..."

This month DK is joined by returning guest Nigel AKA the Kaiju Whisperer, as they take a look at arguably the most respected, yet undicovered gem from the world of Toho: The War of the Gargantuas. What will the Cult Classics team make of Gaira and Sanda... or Russ Tamblyn, for that matter? Hopefully their words won't get stuck in their throat.

"I don't feel guilt. I don't think they do either..."

Episode 74 - "Three hidden challenges test worthy traits, revealing three hidden keys to three magic gates. And those with the skill to survive these strengths will reach the end, where the prize awaits."

Welcome "Gunters" to another new episode of this here Silver Screen Podcast. If you didn't infer from the reference, this time we're looking at Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Ernest Cline's ode to geek culture 'Ready Player One'. D.K is our Parzival this episode, alongside co-host Mike (who's recovering from an Oasis-esque geek experience at North-East Comic Con). They're "clanning up" with two guests; returnee and Gundam fan Tobi and first-time guest (and another self-proclaimed 80s "anorak") Glenn. They'll be talking Easter Eggs, references, writing, direction, pop culture, how the film relates to the source novel and much more. So pause your copy of 'The Shining', strap into your X1 haptic bootsuit, grab your Zemeckis cube, dress your avatar like Buckaroo Banzai and join us in The Distracted Globe. No Sixers allowed!

Series 5, Episode 7 - "It looks like a Soundgarden video!"

We've been away for a little while but we're back with the next in our series of Romulan-themed reviews. Although if you're director Stuart Baird you may wish we weren't. Yes, this time around we're heading to the big screen. Mike and D.K are joined by first time guests Justin and Nita to discuss the critically reviled movie that some claim killed off the franchise for a while; Star Trek: Nemesis. Talking dune buggies, Nosferatu rip-offs, a young Tom Hardy and so much more. So have Troi take the helm and prepare for ramming speed, it's going to get bumpy...

"The future is not a straight line. It is filled with many crossroads. There must be a future that we can choose for ourselves."

Series 5, Episode 6 - "I'm just going to be sneaking over here."

Oh no, those dastardly Romulans have finally gotten D.K. They got sick of his insults and now he's off for "re-education", or at least sitting this episode out. This is also the last episode before we take a short mid-series break. But worry not, Captain Mike has recruited two fine guests; returning from our earlier "Unification I & II" review is Allison. She's joined by first-time guest, long-time fan and epic "audience response" contributor Justin. They'll be discussing, this can't be right, a nice, honourable & three-dimensional Romulan? Oh, D.K is gonna be mad he missed this. That's right, we're talking Telek & much R'mor (I see you groaning) as we peek through Harry Kim's micro wormhole (behave) to examine the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Eye of the Needle". Ignore that weird suspace variance and beam over to us now for an enjoyable, in-depth episode.
