  • Ep. 075 - Ghostbusters

    For July 18th, 2016, Mike, Red and Scott meet in the Nostromo lounge and discuss the extremely moody synth flavoured Spielberg experiment STRANGER THINGS recently released on Netflix, show favourite Alex Proyas absolutely blows our minds with the revelation that his Nicolas Cage picture KNOWING is a prequel to DARK CITY, Scott finally has a chance to experience William Dear's TIMERIDER: THE ADVENTURE OF LYLE SWANN to slight disappointment despite a pretty solid grandfather paradox, Red completes his Nicolas Winding Reftrospective with a viewing of THE NEON DEMON at the rowdy Rio Theatre and realizes that he may be under the spell of NWR, we discuss whether or not Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (or anyone for that matter) deserves be crowned as the highest paid actor in the world, and much, much more before our featured review of GHOSTBUSTERS from director Paul Feig.

  • Ep. 076 - Star Trek Beyond
