November 20, 2017 0033: Emmerich/Devlin Axis of Destruction Preview Show
We're back! Out of chronosleep, back from the nth Dimension, season 2 of SFRS starts with not one bang, but ALL THE BANGS as we get into three films from Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin that involve the world blowing up. And space Egypt. We also definitively decide that Alex isn't as into this stuff as Chris was, Chris was all the way into Indepedence Day, and Sam is definitely not a racist.

This week Chris and Sam get to talk about Star Trek, something you'll have to get used to as there are at least another 12 Star Trek films to watch! Yay!

(also we discuss Serenity and Thunderbirds, which are both a little rubbish).

October 16, 2017 0031: TV to Film Week Preview Show
Chris celebrates his birthday by hosting his first show! This week we discuss the new Star Trek series Discovery, have a Star Trek quiz and then preview three films that made the transition from TV to cinema. I mean really we are just starting a journey through 13 Star Trek films, and watching two other things that don't look too great...

October 08, 2017 0030: Close Encounters of the Third Kind, War of the Worlds (2005), A.I. Artificial Intelligence
Close Encounters is re-released on 4K blu-ray so we rate it, along with two other Spielberg sci-fi joints. Its a rare week of unity in the pod as we unanimously agree on a ranking straight off the bat for (i think?) the first time ever, and generally enjoy a week with three actual competently main films.

Next time we preview three franchises that started life on tv, so tune in for that.

This week we celebrate the 4K re-release of Close Encounters of the Third Kind by taking a look at trailers for three of Steven Spielberg's forays into sci-fi!

(There's also a quiz that took ages to come up with that doesn't go down very well :\ )

September 25, 2017 0028: The Guyver, The Rocketeer, Terminator 2: Judgment Day
The year is 1991, and science fiction is big business. Arnie comes back, Mark Hamill's career hits rock bottom, and Disney fail at making a billion dollar franchise. This week's films are a diverse selection of sci-fi and there's something for everyone. Probably.

PS when Sam keeps saying 'The four horsemen' he meant 'The Lone Gunmen' !

Join us next time for a Spielberg special!

September 18, 2017 0027: 1991 Week Preview Show
Terminator 2 is back and released in 3D, which is a good enough excuse to go back to 1991 and see the original again! Also The Guyver and The Rocketeer came out that year, so why not watch those too!

September 15, 2017 0026: The Lawnmower Man, The Andromeda Strain, I Am Legend
Computer disease and human disease can slow us down, but it can't stop us from ranking three more films. We're late but we're here and worth the wait, as we dive in to three book adaptations, with our most diverse collection of films yet. Andromeda Strain is old, I am Legend is ruined by rewrites, and Lawnmower Man is just ruined.

He was my best chimp!
