Goyer, the creator and executive producer of Foundation, to ask him some of the questions we’ve had about the show thus far, as well as the questions you submitted to us.

Dune (2021)

Well, the verdict is in from the USofA (as it already has been from the rest of the world) and Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Dune appears to work, even on skeptics like Jim who have been resistant to it’s Lynch-tainted charms for decades. But it is any wonder? When a movie looks this good and displays such an overwhelming amount of creativity, you just can’t help but enjoy it. Check out our spoiler-free thoughts on the movie and then, if you’re a club member, stick around for our full spoiler review.

S01E06 – Death and the Maiden

This episode is more action-heavy than the previous ones and the potential consequences for Terminus are frightening. But maybe only half as frightening as the consequences that a certain artificial life form might experience after bowing to her moon goddess right in front of her clone god. Join us for the full discussion on the podcast.

S1E05 – Upon Awakening – Feedback

For some reason we’re incapable of talking less. We tried to talk faster. Nothing worked. So, going forward, we’re going to be splitting off the feedback from the main discussion and analysis. It remains to be seen if that can get our episodes under 2 hours. Respect and enjoy the podcast.

Psycho (1960)

There’s almost certainly nothing left to say about a 60+ year old movie from the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, but that won’t stop us from saying our piece. If you haven’t seen Psycho, it’s absolutely worthy of a watch. If you have seen it, join us for a podcast that attempts to properly appreciate the cinematic mastery on display.

Mulholland Drive (2001) 20th Anniversary re-release

Oh boy… What can I say about this week’s big anniversary that won’t piss off the general public who apparently respects and admires the works of David Lynch? Well, I can say that we’re re-releasing our podcast on Mulholland Drive for its 20th anniversary. I can also say that the opinions expressed in the podcast are now 5 years old and I’ve seen exactly 1 David Lynch movie that I’ve enjoyed in that time. 

But hey, A.Ron’s here too, and he loved it. From the weird dumpster monsters to the strange musical interludes, he’s down to clown on any wavelength Lynch chooses to broadcast. At least half the podcast will be from that perspective.

So enjoy this now-20-year-old movie and what we had to say about it 5 years ago.
