Busy Dads Do Sci-Fi

"Does a spaceship make it sci-fi?"

Come along with us for an episode that was originally recorded in January of 2021, deep in the throes of the pandemic.  So, does this mean The Busy Dads are back?  More will be revealed.

What it DOES mean is that we had a few episodes "in the can" and there is no way we couldn't just thrust them upon the world.

Join Kevin & George as we wonder on whether ET:  The Extra-Terrestrial is more of a fairy tale or a science fiction movie.

You know how you like a movie and then you dislike it and then you like it again?  No?  Only me?  Ok.

The Busy Dads take a weird transparent worm out the chest to Donnie Darko, the only good movie that Richard Kelly made.

Enjoy!

I can't tell if Brad Pitt is a great actor or a terrible actor.

It doesn't matter, because the Busy Dads are taking a trip from the not so distant future to the not so distant past.  And, once again, Bruce Willis is along for the ride.

Join us for TWELVE MONKEYS from genius Terry Gilliam.

Oh, so he is like playing Bruce Willis but Bruce Willis ISN'T playing Joseph Gordon Levitt?  Hm.  That hardly seems fair.

In this episode, a continuation of our EPIC time travel suite, the Busy Dads take a look at the only good movie that Rian Johnson has made.  Oh, wait.  This wasn't good either.

Ok.  Well, we are talking about Looper.

When you've got a movie that has been consistently billed as the smartest time travel movie ever made, what else can you do but make fart jokes about it?

The Busy Dads tackle the monster that is PRIMER in an episode that is sure to go down in history as being the most realistic and smartest, just like PRIMER.

What do you get when you cross Robert Patinson, outer space and a baby?  Sounds like a fever nightmare I once had in 2006.

Surprisingly, you get HIGH LIFE, a fantastic piece of meditative science fiction.  Listen along as The Busy Dads step into the fluidy box with Robert and his glittery gang.

Come on now!  I'm pretty sure that we've ALL slept with our own mothers at some point.

Well, perhaps not to THAT extent.  However, in this episode Kevin and George take a look at the amazing facts, incredibly coherent and occasionally incestuous timeline presented in the German Netflix series DARK.

Remember that movie about the remnants of humanity stuck on a train and they had to constantly move on the train or they'd all freeze to death and Captain America and John Hurt and Ed Harris and Tilda Swinton were in it?  What was that called?

SNOWPIERCER?  No.  That can't be right.

Wow.  Winter Break seemed extra long this year.

Kevin and George (and Producer Vic) are BACK...from the dead?  Maaaaaaaybe.  More specifically, they are back with the brand of mediocre podcast that only two busy dads can bring you.  Sit back, relax and enjoy as we discuss the absolute brilliance of MAD MAX.

Which is, apparently, NOT Road Warrior.  Huh.
