Bald Move Pulp

Andrew "The Commissioner" Mount "strikes" again from his hidden rebel base, this time forcing us to watch Episode V of the Star Wars saga, "The Empire Strikes Back." Which, incidentally, depending on the age of the A.Ron you ask, is either his favoritist movie of all time, or top three. Either way, it's a treat. Once again, Jim and I try to sort through our childhood and adult memories of this holiest of trilogies to give it the treatment it deserves. If you missed in the first time, or would like to listen again, you can check out our coverage of A New Hope, also brought to you by The Commish.

Thanks again Andrew, we appreciate all of your support.

Today's commissioned podcast is on 1994's Stargate -- brought to you by Dr. Brandon Devito, official dentist of Bald Move and international man of mystery. Directed by Roland Emmerich and starring Kurt Russell and James Spader, it is a star spanning intergalactic tale of ancient Egyptian themed aliens, slip-shod archaeology, and gun toting shepherd boys. The boys ponder how movies change as we age, Emmerich's professional toolkit, the massive flaws in both Ra's and team Stargate's (SG-1?) plans. A good time is had by all.

Thanks again Dr. Devito! Hope you enjoyed your trip down our memory lane with Stargate.

Jim and A.Ron went out over the long weekend and treated themselves to the latest James Bond flick, Spectre. After discussing the experience itself, in which we review our hometown's newest theater experience, the Eastgate Brew and View, we dish on the few charms and big disappointments in Daniel Craig's latest outing on Her Majesty's Service, Craig's place in the 007 pantheon, and our relationship with the series as a whole. Massive spoilers incoming, so if you want to see this unsullied, put this pod on the back burner until you've had a chance to experience it yourself.

Jim and A.Ron watched some fun television this week that they want to talk about! First up is the horror / comedy on Starz Network, "Ash vs Evil Dead". Does Bruce Campbell's shtick hold up all these years later? Second, the amazingly funny Cartoon Network Adult Swim sci-fi comedy, "Rick and Morty", co-created by Dan Harmon and the Earl of Lemongrab.

Special thanks to Robert Packnett who commissioned us to take on Netflix's 2015 series, "Daredevil", with a particular emphasis on the episodes "Cut Man" and "Shadows in the Glass". This was a particularly shrewd selection, as they both deal with the duality of the main hero and villain of the series, and their histories, similarities, strengths, and weaknesses. "Daredevil" is a series that is so much better than it has any right to be, and it's a magical combination of the writing, direction, and incredible charisma of the main cast that holds it all together and keeps it on track, making it even greater than the sum of it's parts.

Thanks again, Robert! That was a lot of fun, and has us hungry for season two and to see what else the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Netflix have cooked up for us in the future.

Jim and A.Ron saw Ridley Scott's "The Martian" last night, starring Matt Damon, and have a lot to say about it. Note, the first part of the podcast is spoiler free, but then when we say we're about to spoil things, that's your cue to get out while the getting is good. Along the way, we talk about the trailers we saw for The Revenant, The Big Short, Joy, and Concussion.

If you are still hungry for more Martian goodness, might I recommend reading Andy Weir's original book (The Martian) the film is based on? Then, I'd proceed to reading Robert Zubrin's A Case For Mars, upon which most of the science of the book and film are based upon. And if that's not enough, check out the Red/Green/Blue Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson.
