Next week we take our annual trip to a galaxy far, far away - it's The Last Jedi!

Halloween but really not season continues with Cube! Join us as we hear more about Chris' exploits abroad, run out of plot to talk about very quickly, then Sam learns that films are shot in order (but still doesn't believe it), Alex is interrupted by some late night DIY, and we hallucinate a film like Cube, but it's in a balloon.
Next week, some super old-dude sci-fi, it's Cocoon!

We're back! It's been a while, but we're here and we're still ranking! Keeping up with tradition, we miss halloween by almost a month and bring you sci-fi horror with Lifeforce! Join us as we hear about Chris' trips to film festivals with Time Travel is Dangerous (coming to a cinema near you next year!) and then enjoy some absolutely bonkers '80s fun.
Next week - and it really will be next week this time - we watch Cube!

This week, we watch Ikarie XB-1, a film that is 'influential', or maybe actually influential, it's hard to tell! Join us as we discuss the reach of this film, enjoy people laughing at a robot, and get our vertical integration sorted, just in time for the debut of Chris' film.
Next week (or some point soon anyway) we're watching Lifeforce! I think...?

This week, it's a bumper episode as we accept the podcast will NEVER END by watching the 'final' film, Blade Runner! Join us as we learn about Chrismas, deep dive into different versions of the film, Sam can't shut up about Vangelis, we gush over the production design, and Sam really can't shut up about Vangelis.
Next week, we watch '60s Czech sci-fi oddity Ikarie XB-1

Hi! Remember us? After a month off, we're back! We accidentally deleted an episode and we're doing the films in the wrong order, but we're here! This week, It's Chris' birthday pick, our 2nd, 3rd, 4th viewing of the Devlin/Emmerich career highlight. Join us as we hear about Chris' holiday to Washington, consider shift patterns aboard motherships, and discuss (probably not for the first time) how aliens having a Firewire port is still the most ridiculous thing about this film.
Next week, it's Sam's birthday pick: Blade Runner (The Final Cut)!

Alien fever continues as we watch the second AvP film. Chris hosts as we try and see what's going on, the problem with Detective Predator, muppet aliens, and then all hell breaks loose as we get to the rating in a way it hasn't in a long time. Alien Vs. Predator? More like Alex Vs. Sam. Also, secrets of the rating system are revealed!
Next week, it's Wing Commander only it kind of isn't...you'll see...

Alex shares his experience of his trip to the premiere, Sam gets to enjoy some free beer, and Chris sent us some texts. Join us for a spoiler-free discussion until 17:55 and after that we go hard and heavy with a spoiler-filled breakdown of our thoughts on the film.
Next week we stick with the xenomorph, it's AVPR: Alien Vs. Predator Requiem!

This week we go all the way back to 1936 to watch a slice of very early British sci-fi, it's Things to Come! Join us as we revel in the bombast of the script, marvel at the special effects, and discover how moaning is eternal.
Next week, we 'celebrate' the release of Alien: Romulus by watching AVPR: Alien Vs. Predator Requiem - it's literally the only Alien thing we have left to watch :\

This week we watch Kevin Costner's big budget post-apocalyptic flop Waterw- no, the other one, The Postman. Join us as we slog through three hours of people not sending the post, and then people really REALLY sending the post. It's a film we've watched so you don't have to, cos we're nice like that.
Next week, it's Things to Come!

This week we belatedly celebrate the release of Furiosa with the last Mad Max we can watch for now. Join us as we head back to post-apocalyptic Australia, discuss some super deep lore, play a game of Max or Martin, and marvel at how terribly this film craters halfway through.
Sam's audio is a mess again, but will be better from next week, so that's good! And next week will be Invasions of the Body Snatchers (1978)

This week we watch Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, a film so monumentally misguided that it managed to kill an entire company. Join us as we discuss high quality bad CGI, the concept of 'virtual actors', and what 3 things we would save on an asteroid.
Also apologies for the audio quality on this one - Sam had some sort of insane crackle on the recording and some shitty kid screaming outside, and chris' recording was inexplicably 20 minutes shorter than the rest so has had to be chopped back in, hopefully seamlessly! I blame the heat.
Next week it's Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome!

It's a bumper episode as we head back to a galaxy far, far away, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Episode I. Join us for a predictably in-depth discussion of the making of the film, how our opinion of the film has changed over a quarter of a century, what a genuine child thinks about the film, and much more!
Here is Jenny Nicholson's incredible 4-hour Galactic Starcruiser video which Sam mentions at some point

We return to discuss Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow! But first, Alex makes the executive decision to discuss other films, so we briefly discuss Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, Furiosa, Atlas, and You Can Call Me Bill. Then we sadly have to watch the film we're here to see. And it ain't great. But at least it's a good excuse for Alex to tell his story about his copy of Horton Hears A Who...
Here are the far superior cutscenes from Jedi Knight - Dark Forces 2
Next week, prepare for a bumper pod as we give Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace the full SFRS 2.0 scientific treatment.

This week we take a trip back to the Riddickverse (one of many verses) and watch Chronicles of Riddick! Join us as we marvel at two films existing at once, chart the rise and fall and rise of Vin Diesel, chat a lot about mongers monging, and alienate anyone who likes metal. Sorry.
Next week, it's Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, which we said last time, but it genuinely is this time!

Next week, get your annoying steampunk tat at the ready - it's Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow!

Accidental post-apocalypse/Fallout season with Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. But first, Alex has a random newsblast? Join us as we take our usual detour into mourning the death of practical effects, ponder if this film invented the post apocalypse, and generally just enjoy a well-made film. We watch them occasionally.
(When Sam keeps saying 'The man with no name' he means A Fistful of Dollars, obvs.)
Next week, it's Annihilation!
