  • Lethal Mullet Podcast: Episode #328: Space 1999

    "I'd love to have a beer with Koenig, cause Koenig's me, mate!"

    LETHAL MULLET PODCAST #328 - SPACE: 1999

    Title: #328 - Space: 1999 (1975) - I'd Have A Beer With Koenig

    Tagline: Commander John Koenig is stern, short-tempered, and the only bloke you'd trust to get Moonbase Alpha home. He's also me, apparently.

    Episode Summary:

    In 1999, a freak nuclear accident blasts the Moon out of Earth orbit. 311 souls on Moonbase Alpha are cut loose into deep space. In command — Commander John Koenig.

    This week on the Mullet, we go back to Gerry Anderson's most ambitious live-action epic. We talk Eagles, Explosive Decompression, Barry Gray's epic score, Martin Landau vs. the universe, and why this show still goes harder than most modern sci-fi.

    It was created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson as a UK space series running 48 episodes from 1975-78, starring husband-and-wife duo Martin Landau and Barbara Bain as base Commander John Koenig and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Helena Russell.

    In This Episode We Cover:

     

    • The Setup: Moonbase Alpha as both research center and early warning station for alien attack, until waste Area 2 goes critical and sends the Moon hurtling into the unknown
    • Koenig The Man: Why he works - Mark Bonnar's new reboot describes him as stern and short-tempered leader John Koenig, and Landau plays it exactly like that. No Kirk charm, all command pressure
    • Main Mission & The Crew: Helena Russell (Bain), Victor Bergman (Barry Morse), Alan Carter (Nick Tate - 42 eps), Sandra Benes, Maya in S2
    • The Hardware: Eagle Transporters - the greatest sci-fi workhorse ever built. Hawks, Moonbuggies, and model work by Brian Johnson that still holds up
    • The Look & Sound: Season 1's dark, 2001-esque seriousness vs Season 2's monster-of-the-week under Fred Freiberger. Barry Gray's score, Derek Meddings' SFX
    • Classic Episodes: Breakaway, Black Sun, War Games, Dragon's Domain, The Testament of Arkadia
    • Legacy: From ITC to Apple TV's announced reboot - why Space: 1999 predicted long-form survival sci-fi 25 years before BSG

We here at the Fandom Podcast Network are proud to celebrate Couch Potato Theater's special presentation of REAL GENIUS (1985).

      REAL GENIUS (1985) Plot Description / Details:

      Real Genius is a 1985 American science fiction comedy film directed by Martha Coolidge, written by Neal Israel, Pat Proft, and PJ Torokvei, and starring Val Kilmer, Gabe Jarret, Michelle Meyrink and William Atherton. The film, set on the campus of Pacific Tech, a science and engineering university similar to Caltech, follows Chris Knight (Kilmer), a genius in his senior year, who is paired with a new student on campus, Mitch Taylor (Jarret), to work on a chemical laser, only to learn it will be used for dangerous purposes. The film received positive reviews from critics, and grossed $13 million at the North American box office.

      "Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?" - Chris Knight

      LETHAL MULLET PODCAST #327 - ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 (1976)

      No demands. No negotiation. Just siege.

      At 3:03am, the phones go dead, the lights go out, and a decommissioned police station becomes the Alamo. This week we’re breaking down John Carpenter’s lean, mean, $100k masterpiece that proved you don’t need money, you need nerve.

      It’s Rio Bravo meets Night of the Living Dead, with a synth score that invented dread.

      In This Episode:

      The Film: Assault on Precinct 13 - 1976 - Written, Directed, Scored and Edited by John Carpenter. 91 minutes. Made for $100k in 20 days. Starring Austin Stoker as Lt. Ethan Bishop, Darwin Joston as Napoleon Wilson, Laurie Zimmer as Leigh, and Henry Brandon.

      What We Cover:

      Why Carpenter originally called it THE ANDERSON ALAMO and wrote it in 8 days as "John T. Chance" - John Wayne's character in Rio Bravo

      The ice cream truck scene - how killing little Kathy changed the MPAA forever and almost got the film an X rating

      How to make $100k look like a million: Panavision anamorphic 2.39:1 projected on a bedsheet, real Venice cop shop locations, and a cast of USC mates and neighbours

      The siege mechanics - silenced rifles, no demands, faceless gang, and the most isolated precinct in LA

      "Got a smoke?" - Wilson, Leigh, and why Napoleon Wilson steals the whole movie

      The score - written in 3 days, drums + synth + electric piano. The blueprint for Halloween

      Why it bombed in the US in November '76 and then exploded at the 1977 London Film Festival

      Original vs 2005 Remake - why explaining the gang ruins the whole point

      Lean, mean, and 91 minutes of a guy in a tan uniform who really should not be in charge. The ultimate single-location siege movie. Without it, no Die Hard.
      Directed by: John Carpenter
      Music by: John Carpenter
      Influences: Howard Hawks' Rio Bravo + Romero's Night of the Living Dead
      Fun fact: Tony Burton (Duke from Rocky) got cast because he'd actually done time.

      Where to Watch: Prime & Blu-ray from Shout! Factory.

      Talk to us:

      What’s your favourite Carpenter deep cut? The Fog? Prince of Darkness? They Live?
      DM us @thelethalmullet - best Bishop vs Wilson takes get read out next week.

      Welcome to Couch Potato Theater: 'Fandom Podcast Network Classics', where we celebrate our favorite movies on the Fandom Podcast Network! 

      THE THREE MUSKETEERS (1993): Fandom Podcast Network Classics. We're re-releasing this special presentation of this Couch Potato Theater podcast originally recorded in 2020. Your Couch Potato Theater hosts and Fandom Podcast Network co-founders Kevin & Kyle welcome guest Hayley for this special retrospective. With the recent passing of Tim Curry, we wanted to celebrate one of his best movie roles, the character of Cardinal Richelieu, by re-releasing this fan favorite classic movie podcast. We here at the Fandom Podcast Network are proud to celebrate Couch Potato Theater's special presentation of: THE THREE MUSKETEERS (1993).

      THE THREE MUSKETEERS (1993) Plot Description / Details:

      The Three Musketeers is a 1993 action-adventure comedy film from Walt Disney Pictures, Caravan Pictures, and The Kerner Entertainment Company, directed by Stephen Herek from a screenplay by David Loughery. It stars Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris O'Donnell, Oliver Platt, Tim Curry, Michael Wincott and Rebecca De Mornay. The film is loosely based on the 1844 novel The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas.

      The three best of the disbanded Musketeers - Athos (Kiefer Sutherland), Porthos (Oliver Platt), and Aramis (Charlie Sheen) - join a young hotheaded would-be-Musketeer, D'Artagnan (Chris O'Donnell), to stop Cardinal Richelieu's (Tim Curry's) evil plot: to form an alliance with enemy England by way of the mysterious Countess D'Winter (Rebecca De Mornay). Rochefort (Michael Wincott), the Cardinal's right-hand man, announces the official disbanding of the King's Musketeers.

      The Three Musketeers was released by Buena Vista Pictures Distribution on November 12, 1993. The film received mixed to negative reviews from critics and grossed $111 million against a $30 million budget.

      LETHAL MULLET PODCAST - Episode #326: ARENA (1989) - Man vs Lizard

      Tagline: In 4038, the first human in 50 years steps into the intergalactic boxing ring. We watched it so you don't have to... but you totally should.

      EPISODE DESCRIPTION:

      TONIGHT! MAN VS LIZARD!

      The Lethal Mullet is strapping on the tactical armor and stepping into THE ARENA - the 1989 Empire Pictures sci-fi cheese classic that asked "what if Rocky was a short-order cook in space?"

      We break down Steve Armstrong's underdog run, Quinn's fight stable, crime boss Rogor and his weasely enforcer Weezil (hello future Quark & Gul Dukat), and the final boss Horn the cyborg. Plus practical effects, handicap computers that explode heads, and why this movie is secretly a Deep Space Nine prequel.

      If you love VHS-era sci-fi, alien boxing, and mullets that survive re-entry, this one's for you.

      IN THIS EPISODE:

      [00:00] Cold Open - Championship Grudge Match

      [02:00] Why ARENA? Empire Pictures at its peak
      [04:30] Lore Dump - Year 4038, the space station, and why humans suck at fighting
      [09:00] Full Plot Breakdown - From short-order cook to contender
      [15:00] Fight Breakdown - Sloth vs Steve, Man vs Lizard, and the Horn final
