Science Fiction Rating System

It’s Christmas Day so what better way to celebrate than putting your headphones in and watching a bunch of trailers with your chums from the SFRS? Its our 2nd annual Christmas show!

We discuss our favourite sci-fi (and non sci-fi) films of 2018, look forward to the year ahead, see how well we predicted the year in film and make more predictions for the coming year. We also help Chris work out what exactly Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is…

Fill out your 2019 predictions here for a chance to MAYBE win something and DEFINITELY make us look silly next Christmas: http://bit.ly/SFRS2019

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all of us at SFRS!

We end 2018 with a bang, the second (and fifth) Star Wars, which is also the third we’re rating. Predictably we can’t stop talking about it in this bumper episode. How do you make a sound like a Mynock? Is Lando a secret clothes thief? And is there a better Star Wars film? Join us as we see out the year in a galaxy far, far away…

This week its all Chris’ fault. We watch his choice of science fiction films, 1993’s Knights, a messy, cheap and Lance Henriksen starring post-apocalyptic tale of cyborg knights, kickboxing slaves and Kris Kristofferson not really being aware what film he’s in.

If you can face it you can watch the whole film here! And if not, let us tell you why you should really click that link. Oh and listen till the end to hear whether Chris will make a similar mistake again…

Next week we see out the year with a classic – Its only The Empire Strikes Back. Blimey!

This week its back to the ’90s for Waterworld, Kevin Costner’s flopping wet fish of a blockbuster. In depth plot discussion, Kevin Costner’s casino, ideas for a better film, we dive so deep into Waterworld we come up screaming for air. And a better film.

Next week its Chris’ fault we’re watching Knights! What?

This week we take the red pill and ask the question: What is The Matrix? In a bumper episode we meticulously work our way through the film, discuss Keanu’s acting ‘style’, moan about how things were better in the ’90s (again), discuss the fast approaching singularity and fill plot holes as fast as Chris can create them. And there’s even time for a quiz!

Next week we keep this blockbuster train rolling with, er, Waterworld

Our (late) horror season concludes with science fiction slasher and tenth entry in the Friday 13th franchise Jason X. 400 years in the future Jason is set loose aboard a school/military/research(?) ship and goes about his business killing dudes. We look for the positives in a seriously flawed film and even manage to coax Chris into saying a few nice things.

Next week a sci-fi classic- The Matrix!

This week we continue our horror trilogy and things are getting creepier. Sam Neill and friends go to hell aboard the Event Horizon! We dissect the grisly events that ensue, whilst trying not to remember how scared we were as kids.

Next week its Jason X

This week Chris hosts as we take a look at Danny Boyle’s Sunshine, the first of a loose (and late) horror trilogy of shows. Disagreement is rife about whether this is a good film, half a good film, or just rubbish all the way through. Does Sunshine have one of film’s worst villains? Does anyone know whats up with Cillian Murphy? And which nation do we manage to accidentally offend this week? All the answers and more within!

This week Chris is back so we return to the business of ranking films, not trailers. Timecrimes is the latest addition to the list, with Alex hosting as we pull apart the complicated plot that inevitably comes with a time paradox. We also get quizzed on famous crimes, what Americans think about time travel and probably add another country to the list of places we can’t go any more.

Next week its Escape From New York!
