Please Don’t Send Me into Outer Space

You know that guy George Lucas? He made other things besides Star Wars. Actually, that is a terrible way to introduce this episode. The kind of hardcore sci-fi fans that subscribe to this podcast no doubt are aware of the movie THX-1138, they probably have strong opinions about said film! Well QUIET DOWN. It’s our turn to talk about this particular science fiction PICTURE. Joel here. I had not seen this movie before I recorded this episode. Along with special guest Martin Kessler (Writer for The Pink Smoke and guest on Shoot the Piano Player among other great podcasts), who had seen this movie before, we managed to scrape away at the the surface of this surprisingly deep movie. One watch and I walked away with so many references that I had seen in other movies. I had no idea how much of an inspiration this movie served for the sci-fi filmmakers that came later. James Cameron, Ridley Scott, some other people I am forgetting (reminder: My brain is not a sponge but rather a pitcher of knowledge in that it overflows and things spill out). I highly recommend THX 1138. The visuals alone are worth the watch.

Hello everyone. We're back. Well... to be more precise, I am back. This is the new version of PDSMiOS. One guest with me (Joel) talking about a sci-fi movie we decided on together. An Important WARNING for those with young ones or those sensitive to cursing, I AM NO LONGER BLEEPING OUT THE CURSE WORDS. This decision is based on feedback from a few listeners. I imagine most people won't notice, but for those of you who do, reach out to me on Twitter or at [email protected]. We can probably figure something out. Anyway, enough house keeping. My guest on this episode is someone I can now call an old friends of mine. He has been my recording partner on Shoot the Piano Player, We Cut Heads, and High and Low. He has been part of the perfect trio that performs on The Arbitrary Indiscriminate Movie Podcast. He is the one called Spencer Seams and he has picked an amazing movie called Burst City from 1982! It is difficult to describe Burst City in terms of subgenre. Let me just say it is part Repo Man, part Fury Road, part A Hard Day's Night, and the rest is some of the most interesting stuff put on film. I hope you enjoy the discussion we had. I have 4 more episodes ready for me to edit, so keep an eye on your podcast feeds. It's going to be wild.

This time, we are joined by our pal Spencer to talk about a Spanish movie about two people who love death and sex. That's all its about. There is definitely not a psychic Antonio Banderas in it. Uhhh... The movie is Matador from 1986!   Email: [email protected] Facebook: facebook.com/pdsmios Twitter: @outerspacepod Donations: ko-fi.com/pdsmios www.pdsmios.com   zbDovOzI3f7aSIn4OccH

Listen to me. This is not really an episode. Have you heard of Aaron Cornelius? He wrote a book. A book about us recording an episode of Please Don't Send Me into Outer Space on the movie In the Mouth of Madness from 1994. But everyone, please, it isn't true! Its just a story! Don't listen to this episode!   Email: [email protected] Facebook: facebook.com/pdsmios Twitter: @outerspacepod Donations: ko-fi.com/pdsmios www.pdsmios.com

This week, we finally escape the prison planet we were stuck on! Just in time to release a new episode! Hope nobody brought anything with them! Alien 3 from 1992!   Email: [email protected] Facebook: facebook.com/pdsmios Twitter: @outerspacepod Donations: ko-fi.com/pdsmios www.pdsmios.com
