PROBING THE MINDS BEHIND PROJECT HAIL MARY!! Coy Jandreau of sits down with the creative team behind the new sci-fi odyssey “Project Hail Mary,” in theatres March 20th, adapted from Andy Weir's bestselling novel. Known for his hard-science storytelling in The Martian, Weir's story follows Ryland Grace — a lone astronaut tasked with saving Earth from an extinction-level cosmic threat — who forms an unexpected bond with an alien ally while racing to solve a universe-spanning mystery. Coy speaks with directors Phil Lord & Chris Miller (The LEGO Movie, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, 21 Jump Street) about the challenge of bringing the film's unusual friendship between Ryland Grace and the alien Rocky to life, including the use of puppetry and performance to create an emotional connection with a character who speaks in musical tones. The interview also features screenwriter Drew Goddard (The Cabin in the Woods, Bad Times at the El Royale, The Martian adaptation) discussing the six-year process of adapting the novel's massive scale and emotional core for the screen. Author Andy Weir shares insight into the optimistic philosophy behind his sci-fi writing and how seeing his creations realized onscreen — including the alien Rocky — became “retroactively canon” once the film's designs were brought to life. The conversation also includes stars Ryan Gosling (La La Land, Blade Runner 2049, Barbie) and Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest), who discuss building the film's human relationships and themes of resilience, discovery, and what humanity is capable of when faced with the impossible. From ambitious sci-fi spectacle to deeply personal storytelling, Project Hail Mary aims to blend the wonder of classic space epics like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar, and Gravity with a heartfelt story about friendship, survival, and humanity's ability to solve impossible problems together.

Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein at nineteen. Cinema has been retelling it ever since - and mainly getting it wrong.Hosts Laura Gommans and Tom Ooms dig into the big question: is Frankenstein the story of a misunderstood outcast, an abandoned child who never asked to exist, or a cautionary tale about scientists who should really know better? More importantly, why is Frankenstein always so ugly?They trace the monster on screen through James Whale's Universal original in 1931, Hammer Horror's gloriously excessive franchise — essentially the Marvel Universe before Marvel existed — and into modern Frankenstein-by-another-name films like Ex Machina and Blade Runner. Plus reviews of the two new adaptations, Frankenstein and The Bride, putting the myth back in the spotlight.Also: Laura confesses to having seen Fifty Shades Darker in the cinema three times and to watching Arrival at the gym.

In this episode, Jaime, Patrick and Micah discuss what's happening in our world through the lens of the Blade Runner films. This conversation proved to be riveting, sobering and challenging. We try our best to serve author Philip K. Dick's intentions when he wrote Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. We discuss everything from why a system would develop a version of people without empathy to how immigrants are similar to Replicants.

W/C 23rd February 2026It's been a long time since I have watched Pulp Fiction, but it came up in conversation when I was asked by my eldest if I could suggest something for him to watch.At the beginning of lockdown I began the process of ripping my DVD collection and having everything available as easy playback and sharing, and having got about 80% of the way through it before getting bored, it meant I had a lot to peruse and ultimately recommend.Along with the cool-as-you-like Tarantino classic I offered up Grosse Pointe Blank, I Am Legend, Inception, Phone Booth, The Usual Suspects, Seven, Birdman, Blade Runner and Unbreakable.Oh, and Phoenix Nights.Stay safe.You Never Can Tell - Chuck BerryTherapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.

Tread Perilously concludes its month of TV movies with The Night Stalker. When his editor cancels his vacation, Karl Kolchak finds a seemingly standard Las Vegas murder is just the beginning of a killing spree. But odd details -- like certain puncture wounds on the victims' necks and the complete loss of blood -- lead the intrepid reporter to suggest law enforcement is dealing with a man who thinks himself a vampire. Kolchak's current girlfriend, who works at a saloon, goes one step further: maybe the killer is a vampire. Can it be true? Will Kolchak accept that possibility? Will it change the course of his life forever? Erik and Justin return to one of their favorite TV characters in his first appearance. The early '70s Las Vegas setting gives them a lot to chew on, as does star Darren McGavin's irresistible charm. They also clarify the connection between the title and certain real-life killers. Erik finds an unlikely new role for David Duchovny. Claude Akins makes his triumphant Tread Perilously return. Nuances about vampires are explored. Alternate casting choices for Blade Runner emerge. The pair try to figure out why Kolchak had to leave New York and a wild Bob Whiteman appears.

Send a textExplore the chaotic and visionary mind of Philip K. Dick, the legendary author behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report. In this episode of The Day's Grimm, Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm dive deep into a life that was arguably weirder than the science fiction stories it inspired.From the tragic infancy of his twin sister to his final days on the cusp of Hollywood fame, Philip K. Dick (PKD) lived on the edge of reality. We examine the "amphetamine-fueled" writing sessions where he produced up to 11 novels in two years, his five failed marriages, and the deep-seated paranoia that led him to believe the FBI was monitoring his every move.A central focus of this deep dive is the bizarre 1974 "2-3-74" event, where Dick claimed a pink beam of light transmitted divine information directly into his brain. This experience sparked an 8,000-page journal known as the Exegesis, where he wrestled with questions about ancient Rome, Gnosticism, and the nature of our reality—decades before "The Matrix" made these concepts mainstream.Whether he was a prophetic genius or a man struggling with substance-induced psychosis, PKD's influence on modern pop culture is undeniable. Join us as we break down the drugs, the delusions, and the legacy of the man who dared to ask: "What is real?"

The full scale invasion of Ukraine began four years ago today. Ukraine Unbroken is an evening of five new plays written in response to the war. David Edgar talks about his, Five Day War, which imagines the puppet government waiting to move in when Kviv falls, and the other dramas. Between the plays Ukrainian musician Mariia Petrovska sings and plays the bandura. She talks about her involvement and the bandura, the national instrument that was once banned. And Mariia plays and sings live in the studio.As Oscar-winning British cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins looks back at his career through his visual memoir Reflections: On Cinematography, he talks to Samira about his practical and inventive approach to working on many iconic films such as 1984, O Brother Where Art Thou, 1917, tackling sci fi on Bladerunner 2049 and Bond with Skyfall. The government has announced the introduction of new legisation to introduce monitoring by Ofcom of streaming services. Front Row explores the implcations of this.And we consider the novels selected for the International Booker Prize longlist, announced today with writer and head judge Natasha Brown.

What if the loudest stories about the future—AI gods, Mars colonies, digital immortality—aren't science at all, but science fiction masquerading as inevitability? In this episode of The Radical Candor Podcast, Kim Scott and Amy Sandler are joined by science journalist and astrophysicist Adam Becker (PhD in computational cosmology), author of More Everything Forever. Adam breaks down the “big three” myths that dominate Silicon Valley's imagination: space colonization, superintelligent god-like AI, and the singularity. He explains why both the utopian and apocalyptic versions of AI stories often share the same assumption—unimaginable AI power—and why that assumption doesn't match reality. They also explore the deeper pattern underneath these myths: the belief that every problem can be solved with technology (usually computer technology), even when the barriers are political and social—collective action, persuasion, solidarity, and power. Along the way, Adam shares how he stayed sane while writing about “seriously disturbing ideas,” and why reconnecting with the natural world (and real human relationships) is a necessary antidote to screen-mediated life. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the “AI will save us” vs. “AI will doom us” debate, this conversation offers a clearer, more grounded frame—and a reminder that being human matters.

Joanna Cassidy has never fit neatly into one lane, and that is exactly why she is unforgettable. In this episode of Still Here Hollywood, Joanna takes us from Syracuse University as an art student to a cross-country leap that landed her in Los Angeles and changed everything. She talks about her first film set experience with Walter Matthau and Bruce Dern, the shock of realizing she could actually act, and how her creative life has always lived in two worlds, performance and painting. We also dive into the legacy roles that keep getting rediscovered. Joanna shares what it was like stepping into Blade Runner as Zhora, working with Ridley Scott's meticulous vision, and why that film's impact only grew with time.

Kristi Lee, Dr. Rob Shumaker and guest Josh Arnold break down Oscar season, including best picture, best actor, best actress and best director debates. The conversation covers award show fatigue, movie reviewing culture, streaming versus theaters, and why the big-screen experience still matters. Films discussed include The Golden Compass, Marty Supreme, One Battle After Another, Hamnet, Sinners, Frankenstein, Zootopia 2, Blue Velvet, Basquiat, Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049, The Godfather, The Wizard of Oz, Lost in Translation, Mamma Mia, Road House, Begonia and Perfect Days, along with reflections on IMAX, movie etiquette and seeing films with an audience.
Episode 122 - Welcome back to DePalma month. This week we are joined by one of our old friends OOTim. If you enjoyed OOTim's analytical breakdown of Blade Runner, then you are sure to enjoy his breakdown of a less analyzed film; The Fury (1977). The Fury is DePalma's lesser known psychic supernatural thriller film that came out in the mid-1970's. The more well-known version of this would be Carrie (1976). We do have a supplemental style discussion of Carrie towards the end of this one, but do tune in for our explosive discussion of The Fury.And tune in next week for our discussion of Blow Out (1981) and the supplemental Snake Eyes (1998). You know how much we love Nick Cage here at MRAC so a discussion could pop up.We also may be joined by another special guest!email us at mracfilmclub@gmail.com

Four Play begins a brand-new Cyberpunk Arc with a deep dive into Blade Runner: one of the most influential science-fiction films ever made. Released in 1982, Blade Runner didn't just define cyberpunk aesthetics, it also reshaped how cinema explores identity, consciousness, artificial intelligence, capitalism, and what it means to be human. Decades later, its themes feel more relevant than ever. Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/FOURPLAY and use code FOURPLAY and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup!

In this episode of the show we are transitioning from discussing 80's fantasy to our February deep dive into 80's dystopian science-fiction. And you couldn't really ask for a better movie to kick off this series than the Ridley Scott-directed Blade Runner. Over the course of our conversation, which was just as ethereal and meandering as the movie itself, you will hear us talk about the many troubles this iconic cult classic faced when released, how the movie stacks up against the book, and where it brings novel material to the table. We also discuss Harrison Ford as a noir detective who wonders if he is real, Rutger Hauer as a haunting presence, the perils of listening to Vangelis while falling asleep and also how the movie prompted some of us to question the fabric of reality and wonder if we are all replicants after all.

This week, we review Blade Runner (1982), Ridley Scott's neo-noir sci-fi masterpiece that redefined the genre. Harrison Ford stars as Rick Deckard, a weary “blade runner” tasked with hunting down rogue replicants in a dystopian Los Angeles. With a haunting score by Vangelis, groundbreaking visual design, and existential themes at its core, the film explores what it really means to be human.Is empathy a glitch in the code or the essence of the soul?

In our first episode of 2026, we return to one of Blade Runner 2049's most quietly devastating moments: K's memory of the Morricole orphanage, and what that memory actually means within the larger story at play. On the surface, we're watching a synthetic being (whatever a Replicant ultimately is) recount a memory he knows to be false to his superior officer. But this retelling doesn't happen freely. It happens under pressure. Under surveillance. Under the constant threat of erasure. And in that moment, the scene crystallizes something essential about K's existence: the psychic cost of obedience in a world governed by deeply unhappy, emotionally stunted humans. What begins as a test of authenticity becomes something far more unsettling. A performance of belief. A ritual of submission. A reminder that even false memories can carry real emotional weight and that belief itself may be more dangerous than truth. In this discussion, we peel back the layers of that scene and uncover implications that reach far beyond the orphanage. We talk about memory as control, trauma as programming, and why Blade Runner 2049 insists that meaning doesn't come from whether something is “real,” but from how it changes the one who carries it. This conversation surprised us. It took us places we hadn't anticipated, and it reshaped how we understand K, Wallace's world, and the fragile boundary between human suffering and manufactured experience. We hope you enjoy the discussion, and as always, thank you for listening. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support.

Brand expert, author, internationally recognized designer, and TEDx speaker Kevin Finn joins the show to talk about Blade Runner starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, M. Emmet Walsh, Daryl Hannah, Brion James, and Joanna Cassidy. Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, is brought back to an elite unit that hunts and retires rogue Replicants, bioengineered beings virtually identical to humans but often used for slave labor. We also discuss the movies Alien and Aliens, as well as Blade Runner 2049 and Barry Lyndon.-Kevin Finn is a brand expert, author, internationally recognized branding designer and TEDx speaker. Having begun his career in Dublin, he later moved to Sydney, where he became Joint-Creative Director of Saatchi Design, part of the Saatchi & Saatchi global network. From 2003-2018 he wrote, edited, and published the independent design journal, Open Manifesto, which included interviews, essays, and conversations with some of the most influential designers and global thinkers, including: Michael Bierut, Milton Glaser, Jessica Walsh, Edward de Bono, Noam Chomsky, ex-CIA operative Larry J. Kolb, and Neil Harbisson, a real-life cyborg, among many others. During a time when weblogs and Tumblrs had overtaken the design landscape Open Manifesto's print publication was a refreshing approach. In 2022, Open Manifesto, An Anthology was published by Formist. In 2007, Finn founded his independent design practice, TheSumOf, in remote Australia before moving to Brisbane in 2010, where he now lives and works. His award-winning book Brand Principles: How to be a 21st Century Brand was published in 2022. He is also founder and creator of DESIGNerd, the trivia app where the most influential designers test your knowledge and share theirs.

MONSTER PARTY POWERS UP AN OLD TOPIC! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD revisit one of their earliest talking points! It's a celebration of mechanics, synthetics, and cybernetics, certified to scramble your circuitry called… ROBOTS REBOOTED!!! During the first year of MONSTER PARTY, when the show was recorded on a stone slab with a live pterodactyl beak, we did an episode simply titled… ROBOTS!!! The show was quite a bit shorter than our current entries, but displayed a primitive charm that would soon morph into what can only be described as a juggernaut of charisma. But now, with over a decade of experience under our belts, and robots and A.I. on the verge of making the world of TERMINATOR a reality, we knew this was the right time hit this subject again. Aside from discussing some of the most beloved robots from film and TV history, like Robby from Forbidden Planet, B-9 from Lost In Space, Gort from The Day The Earth Stood Still, and C-3PO and R2-D2 from Star Wars, we'll also focus on the world of androids and cyborgs. We're talking Data from Star Trek: Next Generation, the replicants of Blade Runner, The Daleks from Doctor Who, Bender from Futurama, Robocop, The Terminator, and more! And by more, we mean toys, of course. Joining us for this robotic rager is a guest making his MONSTER PARTY debut! He's an amazingly talented comedian, writer, actor, columnist, and activist, who also happens to be an award-winning hip-hop artist and juggler. Please welcome to the show… NGAIO BEALUM!

Last time we took a diversion to talk about Blade Runner after Kojima talked it up in the Creative Gene, so of course it'd be foolish of us to not talk about it's surprisingly great, years later sequel: Blade Runner 2049. And we have so much to say about it, from it's many great performances (and one notable bad one), it's amazing production, our various feelings about the ending, and the one universal truth: Dave Bautista is the man.Episode 77: If Only He Tried Acting

This week, the boys head back to 1982 to discuss Ridley Scott's “Blade Runner: The Final Cut”. Dave shared his thoughts on whether he prefers this or the original theatrical release (with or without the voice-over???), and Jeff and Dave debate how much, or how little, went into Harrison Ford wondering if he was still frozen in carbonite! Star Wars joke, we really discussed whether or not he was a replicant, of course. Jeff also got us started with a mini-review of “Song Sung Blue”.

Mark Mangini is a six-time Oscar-nominated, two-time Oscar-winning Sound Designer. He won his Oscars for Dune and Mad Max Fury Road. Mark's also well known for designing sound for numerous films, including: Blade Runner 2049, Star Treks I, IV and V, Beauty and the Beast, TheFifthElement, Space Jam, Poltergeist,Gremlins, Aladdin, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, among many more.Mark has spent his 49-year career in Hollywood imagining and composing altered sonic realities for motion pictures. He's a frequent lecturer, an outspoken proponent for sound as art, and a guitarist/songwriter with compositions that can be heard in sex, lies and videotape, Star Trek IV, and more.Mark believes that all organized sound is music. He sees his work in movies as every bit a composition as those of Beethoven and the Beatles. He just happens to use dissonance, melodic content and arrhythmia to its fullest advantage. His work is no less considered, designed, created or manipulated. It just isn't usually what we think of as hummable.His first job in the entertainment industry was at the age of 19 in the sound department of Hanna Barbera Studios making funny noises for children's cartoons. His ears have been keenly trained by years of language study and playing guitar, which suited him well for a career of critical listening and creating unimagined aural worlds and fabricating sonic realities for motion pictures.Mark founded and ran the successful post-production sound company, Weddington Productions, for 25 years. Today he works at Formosa Group in Hollywood, continuing his work as a Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Designer and Re-recording mixer.
