Annihilation
September 24, 2018 23:48 - 2 hours - 87.1 MBWhen 'The Shimmer' threatens titular annihilation the world sends in its very best team of annoying females to drive the creature to suicide by white phosphorous grenade. If that doesn't tell you something about the female species... nothing will. But fear not dear listeners, Jessica joins Matthew and Dean to level out the chick-bashing, and although she is genetically inferior to the lads, she manages some solid points and funny jokes.

Metropolis (1927)
September 17, 2018 02:45 - 2 hours - 78.3 MBTake a deep dive into the darker aspects of Metropolis as the lads consider that all the children in the movie are likely dead by now as it is 91 years later. Additionally, some of those sweet lads were likely mowing down GIs on the beaches of Normandy from their MG-42 bunkers! Yay! It's all connected!

The Guns of Navarone
September 11, 2018 00:21 - 2 hours - 87.8 MBOld men are tasked with a mission that much younger men should have been ordered to do, but that's okay because movies are supposed to be fun - and this movie has fun licked. It's a war flick that plays more like an adventure flick with a couple of moral dilemmas thrown in that were to serve as a criticism of war, but ended up making this one of the most beloved war movies of the era. On the one hand an epic failure, on the other, a massive success. Also, don't forget to subscribe to Dean'...
Underworld
September 10, 2018 02:45 - 1 hour - 62.9 MBSpecial thanks to Benjamin Prugh for offering up the bounty for Underworld (his 5th!) and a heartfelt apology for all lovers of Underworld. The lads brutalize this flick worst than the Lycans brutalized that vampire babe on the train. It's bloody. It's messy. It's serious.

Dr. Strangelove
August 27, 2018 04:00 - 2 hours - 79.2 MBThe lads talk 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and atomic fall-out in addition to tackling all of the pressing themes in 'Strangelove' - you know - the weirdo sexual innuendo, bodily fluids, and of course satirical power structures in the Cold War.

Tremors
August 20, 2018 04:00 - 2 hours - 88 MBMatthew and Dean are joined by Jessie Privett from Countdown to Geektown to talk Tremors. The lads are unabashed in their love for this - now - classic monster flick. Hop in and listen to the lads discuss what they'd rather be killed by: the alien from The Thing, the alien from Alien, or Graboids from Tremors.

Atomic Blonde
August 13, 2018 04:00 - 2 hours - 91.2 MBMatthew and Dean tried something new this week and enjoyed it. Rather than asking listeners for just their thoughts on a film we asked them for questions relating to the film and we got some great questions. These questions lead to some fun conversation about violence against women in film, poor marketing in film, action and the role it will play in future films as well as action as a (perhaps lost) genre. We also do plenty of profane, largely irrelevant, and slightly funny ramblings. Thanks...
The Exorcist
August 06, 2018 04:00 - 2 hours - 85 MBWe aren't sure what your mother sucks in Hell, or if she is in Hell, or if Hell even exists, but we are confident that if you allow your mind to stray into the possibilities of what the Exorcist asks you to ponder, this movie will scare and disturb you.

Django Unchained
July 30, 2018 02:49 - 2 hours - 87.8 MBOn this week's episode Dean and Matthew dance around the liberal use of racial epithets in Tarantino's revenge flick, Django Unchained. The trifecta of Jamie Foxx, Christopher Waltz, and Leonardo DiCaprio top off a star-studded cast, but is it enough to save the last 20 minutes of the film...?

Clerks
February 19, 2018 05:00 - 2 hours - 75.2 MBThe lads go deep in discussing their inspiration from Kevin Smith, from "Tough Sh*t" to "Clerks" and how much effect Kevin Smith indirectly had on the launching of LSG Media. It goes heavy at times, but most of the time is spent laughing about the hilarious, and often too real, characters that Smith was able to put to paper. The lads consider Smith's perspective (and dare we say, "wisdom") at such a young age and how much more introspective he was as compared to them at the same age. As with...
Lethal Weapon
February 12, 2018 05:00 - 1 hour - 63.8 MBIt should come as no surprise that Matthew and Dean were big fans of 'Lethal Weapon', but they both admit that the story is ludicrous (a special forces group selling smack?). They get into Glover's endearing portrayal of a family man closing in on the end of his career which is contrasted against the suicidal and intense hot-head in Riggs. Dean reckons that Gibson would have made a great Wolverine, and Matthew recalls his first exposure to Glover in 'Angels in the Outfield'. The lads also ge...

Pan's Labyrinth
January 22, 2018 05:00 - 2 hours - 74.2 MBThe virtue of defiance is one of the central themes in 'Pan's' and it grabbed Matthew and Dean's attention immediately. They talk about Spanish Hitler, the Spanish Civil War (and its aftermath), and the mirroring of Vidal in all the scary monsters (especially the Pale Man) in the underworld. The lads get into Vidal's desire to consume and destroy and his complete and utter lack of agreeable traits. Is the Captain a true and evil monster? Is the underworld real? Does it matter? A great movie ...

Prepare yourselves for a wild and emotional ride as the lads relive their earliest memories of watching Braveheart in all its bloody glory. The discussion gets into the real William Wallace, the real Edward I, the real Robert the Bruce, and a lot of the politics and strife surrounding the First War for Scottish Independence. The biggest takeaway from this podcast: Braveheart has plenty of historical inconsistencies (like a ton)...
Tombstone
January 08, 2018 05:00 - 2 hours - 74.2 MBMatthew and Dean are back at covering another Western. They go back to their childhoods and discuss their Westerns versus their father's Westerns. There isn't much criticism here outside of making fun of how they imagine Billy Zane's character died at the hands of the cowboys. As expected there is plenty of praise heaped upon the regulars like Russell, Kilmer, Paxton, and Elliot, but the lads get into Stephen Lang, Billy Bob, Biehn, and of course - the great, late Powers Boothe.

Batman Returns
December 25, 2017 05:00 - 1 hour - 69.4 MBDid a movie that was selected by Dean (Staff Poll) in irony end up being better than remembered? Is it still silly and Tim Burtony? How good was Danny Elfman's score? Join the lads as they get into all these questions and more. They also talk a ton about Batman and their first exposure to the Dark Knight from the Adam West rendition to Nolan's and back to the animated series. You don't want to miss the first time LSG Media talks Batman. The episode will make you feel better than the most ski...
Star Wars: The Last Jedi
December 18, 2017 06:00 - 2 hours - 86.6 MBIt wouldn't be the "Science Fiction Film Podcast" if we didn't talk Star Wars, and this week we have a special four-way episode ready to serve up into your hungry ear-holes. Prepare yourselves as all four hosts share some gripes with this installment, but remember that it is all done out of tough love. Fear not: there is plenty to like in this flick, but is it enough to carry Last Jedi into "good movie" territory? Like the sacred Jedi texts, this podcast will unravel all of the mysteries of ...
The Princess Bride
December 18, 2017 05:00 - 2 hours - 85.9 MBOn this week's podcast you will hear about the miss-adventures of Westley who suffered terrible abuse at the hands (and other appendages) of the pirate crew that he served. You will also hear about how this led to Westley becoming White Zorro who has a Rolodex of go-to crimes of oppression that he wields against the "lesser races" in an attempt to maintain the status quo of "white evilness". Matthew and Dean also discuss the reality of Buttercup's decision to run around with a poor farm boy ...
The Departed
December 11, 2017 05:00 - 2 hours - 92.2 MBDean, Josh, and Matthew tackle The Departed, but they mixed it up a little this week. First, they don't go scene-by-scene, but rather they get into the characters, the performances, and the plot. There are comparisons to Goodfellas, discussions on the cinematography, and lots of questions asked by Dean as it relates to: the plausibility of Costello's men murdering Queenan, the level of suspicion for both Sullivan and Costigan in their respective "undercover" roles, and of course Costigan's d...
The Thing From Another World
December 04, 2017 05:00 - 2 hours - 85.8 MBThis week the lads go back to 1951 complete with static camera shots, Trans-Atlantic accents, lots of cigarette smoking, and good ole' fashioned horror. This is the movie that inspired John Carpenter, but does it stand the test of time? Is this a flick that someone will like if they watch it for the first time in 2017? You're in luck - Dean hasn't seen this movie before covering it for the podcast. Matthew grew up with the flick, but has his opinion changed over time? Step in out of the cold...
