Movie Meltdown: The Litany of Cinematic Crimes and Triumphs
Movie Meltdown – The Litany of Cinematic Crimes and Triumphs
This episode our host is virtually reunited with one of his favorite people – a character by the name of Sam Drog. Sure he’s an enigma and a potential threat to humanity… but he’s also a film lover and a hell of a lot of fun. So join us as we see what he’s been up to lately and just what he’s been watching.
And while we both expel a screaming, psychic cry for help, we also cover… Nope, going back to conventions, Firestarter, going up to a random stranger, a screen-accurate Highlander sword, social anxiety, The Crow: Stairway to Heaven, John Waters, the initial promise of the internet, old people explaining anime to each other, I’m in The Thing right now, Captain Harlock, hey chainsaw man, punching a moose, doughnuts make that all go away, Keith David, telekinetic powers, Battle of the Planets, someone who has trouble reading the room, on team calls, stressed-out high school kids, our WALL-E future, lockdown messed up kids, an office frozen in time, degenerate weirdo losers, Speed Racer, the elder gods of Valhalla, being bulletproof, trying to put all these pieces together, set your bar real low, Jordan Peele and the general geek vibe.
“Maybe you caused the freak-out for humanity?”
We are a movie-themed podcast!
