Two True Freaks

"Now you can call me "cyclops", because I have one good eye."

On this episode of Bots, Bugs, And Babes, my father (Al Jaconetti) and I, turn the clock back 80 years to talk about Dr. Cyclops (1940). We explore all the different aspects of the first sci-fi film ever shot in three-color Technicolor, including the special effects and production. We also discus how this film, which was nominated for the Academy Award in Special Effects, would go on to influence other later B-movies. So grab your pit-hat, your best jungle gear, and join us on a journey to the deep jungles for a film might just leave you with a glowing green mist when it is done.

So what have you done with your Corona Virus lockdown free time?

Me? I have cleaned the house, the cars, my Fridge and that little flap in the freezer that holds the ice cubes in the ice cube maker.

I got bored, did my toes. I will not, I repeat, I will not be showing pictures. Bunions are not cute.

So while Tim Elliott is still in moving mode, it is time for Brian Hughes to shine. Ok, maybe not shine, but he will talk a lot, and I mean a lot. Seriously, can this guy shut up and let other people talk?

Well, he did bring back Intern John Hyatt, and John gets a word in edgewise. He even gets the word “Pashmina” in there. Who would have thought that?

Also, we do talk a bit of John Byrne and take a good look at all the current issues of X-Men: Elsewhen John Byrnes Fan Fiction that he is publishing on his own website.

You can find it here: http://byrnerobotics.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=6

So go to that link and follow along or read on your own. Your choice.

If you are a member of the Byrne Victims Facebook group, you can download each issue as they have been compiled as CBRs. Just look in the “Files” section of the FB group.

John and Brian do discuss their thoughts on the lockdown and how they have been spending their time, British comedy and the older offerings of PBS. They talk McDonalds and documentaries and how they make them hungry.

All this and it is for free!

So get that large drink you picked up at the drive through while wearing a mask, relax and enjoy as 3rd Degree Byrne talks through the first four issues of “X-Men: Elsewhen”.
