#020 - Terminator: Dark Fate
Monday Sep 07, 2020
Monday Sep 07, 2020
Baron and The Doc vowed to take on an action-packed, explosive, car-chase-filled, as brainless as possible, mainstream film after two weeks of festival films. And boy, did they find their film.
Terminator: Dark Fate. Starring Linda Hamilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mackenzie Davis and Natalia Reyes. Directed by Tim Miller.
It's just been released for streaming in Australia. This film is right up Baron's alley, but Doc had to do a little research first, and it was obvious from the get go that this was going to be a fun conversation!
Tune in to hear what Doc and Baron thought of the latest instalment in the Terminator franchise.

#019 - First and Last Men (The last MIFF 68½ edition)
Friday Aug 28, 2020
Friday Aug 28, 2020
This is the last film of Melbourne International Film Fest! Baron and Doc started with First Cow, and they have ended with First and Last Men. It just feels right, doesn't it?
First and Last Men is the creation of the late and great Jóhann Jóhannsson, Baron's favourite composer. He also directed and adapted the script for this film, which is narrated by Tilda Swinton.
The Doc and Baron mostly agree on the strengths and weaknesses of this film, but the unusual approach and subject matter takes them down some unexpected paths. Tune in to hear what they think and what the film reminds them of.
As usual, spoiler alerts abound and any criticisms come from a place of love for film.
