February 20, 2023 Twister
On-set jet engines, temporary blindness, and hepatitis shots - three signs you might be in the “suck zone”! This week Chris & Lizzie get carried away by Jan de Bont’s Twister and learn how he threw everything including the kitchen sink (literally) at Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton to get this movie made.
*CORRECTIONS:
*According to screenwriter Terry Rossio, De Bont was actively considering Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton for the lead roles in his ill-fated Godzilla film (which pre-dated Twister).

November 22, 2022 Blade Runner (Part 1)
Carbon monoxide poisoning, an on set "T-shirt war" and a very, very grumpy Harrison Ford are but a few hurdles Ridley Scott and company ran into while making this 1982 sci-fi classic. This week Chris fills Lizzie in on Rutger Hauer's sex appeal, the downsides of writing a script set entirely at night, and that one time Harrison Ford told Darryl Hannah to fish hook his nose just so he could feel something.
