  • Ep.50 – The Matrix
    The Matrix

    The Matrix is a 1999 American science fiction action film written and directed by the Wachowskis, and produced by Joel Silver. It stars Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, and Joe Pantoliano and is the first installment in the Matrix franchise.

    Episode 50 is a big one and so we chose a big classic. We do not doubt that The Matrix was and still is an amazing film full of everything that makes sci fi great. The effects, style and themes of The Matrix have influenced film and television for the past two decades and will surely continue to do so into the next two.
    In this episode we discuss some of the many homages to great sci fi of the past, the way plot and story are used to tell a tale as old as tales are and we talk about the philosophy behind The Matrix.

    The FifthElement

    The Fifth Element is a 1997 English-language French science-fiction action film directed and co-written by Luc Besson. It stars Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Milla Jovovich and Chris Tucker.

    This is a classic movie that broke boundaries and excelled at world-building and dividing audiences. Space Brains discuss their response to the world and characters, talk about the particular editing style used in several scenes to achieve compression of story and introduction of humour and tension. We also explore the pseudo-scientific theory of Nibiru and the end of the world caused by planetary or inter stellar visitors.
