We kick off with a 3 hour fan edit of Dune (1984) and barely make it through unscathed - but we did it so you wouldn’t have to. Joe watches the original cut of Johnny Mnemonic (1995), Dee watches the Japanese cut and we compare and contrast them with the William Gibson short story. We stand in defence of John Carter (2012) as the source material originated a lot of what we consider sci fi tropes today. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) has wonderful galaxy-building but thin plotting and really should have been called Valérian and Laureline. Also: #PERL the cat does some free ASMR. Is Jürgen Prochnow Joe’s dad? Dee can’t pronounce Kwisatz Haderach. Captain Picard plays the space mandolin. We ask where our testicles are, Summer. Dee checks Traci Lords’ age again. Joe is clearly jealous of naked James Purefoy. We try and encourage #PERL the cat to dispense pearls. Multipass! We play a game of “Factions”. Nerd Fight this week is about gun fetishism in movies.
