This year we celebrate the spooky season with a look back at “The X-Files: Fight the Future,” the groundbreaking 1998 movie that expanded the iconic ‘90s TV show. We also look at the wider themes and spooks of the show, which were always overseen by its creator, Chris Carter. Carter’s influence is an underrated force in modern media. Aliens, plagues, vaccines and the matchless chemistry between David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. This one has it all.

In our latest LIVE conversation, we sat down with "Dr. Richard Tahvildaran-Jesswein, SMC Public Policy Institute co-director and Dr. Amber Katherine, SMC philosophy professor", to discuss how The Creator draws visual parallels to Vietnam era images, and how late stage capitalism may lead to unregulated use of AI. But most importantly, does this major studio movie present a cinematic propaganda piece, or a utopia for our future? Find out and more on our latest BREAKING THE CONVO!

In our latest discussion, we look into the divisive "Civil War", the latest feature hailing from British writer-director Alex Garland, who has made a reputation for innovative, impactful, yet deeply meaningful films. We look into his four film tenure, as well as the impact of war photography, some films which tackle the subject matter, and the many differing response to Garland's latest work.
And while we are at it, let's play a drinking game: Take a shot [use whatever appropriate substance for your age], every time Sebastian uses the world FILM.
