Episode 20: Time After Time


Corinne, Rosie, and Tim hop into their stylish steampunk time machine to chat about Nicholas Meyer's Time After Time from 1979. Listen as they compare the film's depiction of  H.G. Wells to the real man, attempt to reconcile the film's lapses in spatiotemporal logic, and wonder what the hell is with Mary Steenburgen's accent. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a problem with the Heisenberg compensators.

Episode 19: Movie Monsters


This time Tim and Moviebob himself, Bob Chipman, discuss the real movie stars: the often scary, sometimes goofy, and generally awe-inspiring characters that put the creature in creature features. What makes a great movie monster? Why are they so appealing? And as we run down our list of the greatest beasties ever to invade a movie screen, which critter will come out on top? Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a whole lot of kaiju.
