385: Avatar: Fire and Ash/Aliens with Guest Connor Stewart
This episode of Beer and a Movie goes full James Cameron—twice.
Joined by comedian Connor Stewart, we dive into Avatar: Fire and Ash and the sci-fi horror classic Aliens. One is a sequel for the ages. One… frankly, isn’t. We break down blue aliens, big budgets, space marines, flamethrowers, and Cameron’s lifelong obsession with raising the stakes—sometimes brilliantly, sometimes questionably. Along the way, we compare how his storytelling, action, and world-building evolved across decades, and which franchise actually earned its legacy.
Then we crack open Lagunitas Brewing's Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’ and Saint Arnold's Christmas Ale, pairing hop-forward chaos and holiday nostalgia with Cameron’s cinematic excess. Expect strong opinions, beer-fueled tangents, and Connor Stewart doing what he does best—calling it like he sees it.
Grab a beer, pick a side, and stay frosty—because in space, no one can hear you crack open a Christmas ale. 🍺🎬
