#22; Star Trek : Generations (Star Trek Arc)

This week’s episode is dedicated to Alban Pelland, a veteran on Earth who’s now exploring the Final Frontier.
This episode takes John D. and Gen from the Enterprise B to D in Star Trek Generations. We discuss the introduction of Whoopi Golberg as Guinan, Captain Picard and his rituals for promotion, how Tuesday is indeed a magic day, the ever-changing uniforms, Data’s emotion chip and the ever-growing tradition of Shakespearean actors guest starring in Star Trek. We also go through the Enterprise-D crew, Picard’s catchy lines, how well Diana Troy crashes the ship, how Captains of the NCC-1701 are destined to be miserable that they can’t accept the Nexus and of course, the death of Kirk.

#21; Star Trek : The Undiscovered Country (Star Trek Arc)

This episode takes John D. and Gen into the neutral zone between the Klingons and the Federation in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.  We are more than happy that Sulu finally got promoted to Captain of the Excelsior and are surprised that Chekov didn’t kill Gorkon. We watch as the Scooby Star Trek Gang must solve their biggest mystery yet – why the Federation keeps sending Kirk on diplomatic missions. As we go down this quest for peace, we discover that Earth literature is obligatory reading in most Klingon schools, that not every alien keeps their organs in the same place and that Romulan Ale is more and more common in the universe. We brush upon the Walking dead, the Green Lantern, Fallout New Vegas and the numerous bugs that plague it. Join us for the last movie of the original Star Trek series cast.

#17; Raw Deal (Arnold Arc)

This episode takes John D. and Frank back to their roots as we publish a new entry in the Arnold Arc, Raw Deal (1986). We note that Raw Deal is almost a movie adaptation of Grand Theft Auto, that Arnold doesn’t have enough one liners and that the plot is impossible to follow. We touch upon the Mortal Kombat movies with a promise of a video game arc and we recommend Garth Ennis the Boys Comics (but not to children). We also discuss Jean-Claude Van Damme’s career, how we customize our characters in video games and our drinking habits.

#16; Star Trek : The Search for Spock (Star Trek Arc)

This episode takes John D. and Gen back to the Genesis planet in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. We noted that the bar scene looks like the Star Wars Cantina, arcade games are still made with vector graphics and Doc Brown is one mean Klingon. We also discuss the political implications of Klingons as well as their dangerous sense of honor. We tangent all over the place and explain why The Lion King is a perfect date movie, the relevance of a theatrical trailer that shows all the best scenes and why Gen is not playing Fallout New Vegas yet. This is our craziest podcast EVER. We ask the question: With which SF character would you have a beer?

#15; Star Trek : The Wrath of Khan (Star Trek Arc)

This episode takes John D. and Gen aboard the Enterprise as we launch the Star Trek arc starting with a double feature including an episode from the Original Series: “Space Seeds’’ and ‘’Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan’’! We of course talk about Ricardo Montalban’s chest, the Shat’s acting abilities and the introduction of the Kobayashi Maru. We tangent all over the place, talking about John D. meeting Kevin Smith, Gen’s Halloween costume, Leonard Nimoy’s career, why we are afraid of teleportation and the arrival of Netflix in Canada. For some reason we can’t stop screaming ‘’KHHAAAANNNN’’ and wonder how many fans stop the Shat in the street while screaming it.
We officially changed our podcast format; we no longer do a chronological recap of the movie, we now let the magic happen on its own and we go with the flow. Let us know what you think of the new format.

#14; Back to the Future Arc, Part 3

This episode takes John D. and Gen back to a 1885 Hill Valley in Back to the Future III. We discuss Marty’s incredible strength in his capacity to carry Doc on his back, the weird DNA heritage of the McFly lineage and the need for a clock tower in a town with only about four houses. We establish that Marty has his priorities straight by going directly to the saloon and getting a “smoking wisky’’ when he gets to town. We also try to understand why 1985 Doc doesn’t remember what his 1955 version found out about his future, which actually happened in the past… and we lose ourselves in the fourth dimension. This brings an end to our Back to the Future arc. Hopefully no remakes are in the works.

#13; Weird Science (80’s Style)

This episode takes John D. and Frank into the world of John Hughes as we revisit Weird Science. We share stories from our teenage years, remember what a VHS was and try to understand how this movie got a PG-13 rating. We comment on Kelly LeBrock as the perfect computer-made woman, her 80’s style clothing and how she would not be the kind of woman a Mac would create. God bless the 80’s for some of the most beautiful haircuts we’ve ever seen.
