The car wrecks are already here! You're next! YOU'RE NEXT!
Hipster & The Nerd takes you inside the Rocketship Roulette once again to discuss two sci-fi franchise starters, Mad Max and Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)! Join Chris and Brian as they discuss the impressive action sequences, dystopian reality, and uncomfortable presence of Mel Gibson that make the original Mad Max what it is. Then, stick around as they dive into the groundbreaking effects work, strong use of tension, and political themes that make the original Invasion of the Body Snatchers such a classic. Also, there's more ridiculous space opera nonsense if you're into that. Either way, you should definitely rev up your engines and give this episode a listen!
Note: The prior description was written before Callie Hanna's public coming out as a transgender woman and thus refers to her by her dead name. Though this is no longer in line with her gender identity, the description has been left as is for the purposes of historical preservation.
