Episode 64: Demolition Man

We're police officers! We're not trained to handle this kind of violence! A first time guest has joined us, Bob Callahan is here to talk about the movie Demolition Man and how this futuristic looking town looks like the perfect utopia at first, but very quickly you find out that it's quite the opposite in fact. That's just San Angeles, but what about the other states in the US in this universe, are they living the same dystopia that San Angeles is? Plus, we go over the weird relationship that Dr. Raymond Cocteau and Simon Phoenix have in this movie and what Dr. Raymond's intensions truly are with the cryogenic prison device, why some people are evil and some are good while they're frozen and since this movie is set in 2032, we get to go over what the movie has gotten right about the future so far and the ones they "accidentally" got right as a result of the pandemic. Did this movie predict 2032 better than they predicted 1996?
