Happy Belated Independence Day, or as I like to say, "Happy Birthday to My Favorite Sibling Co-Host!"  Yes, that's right, our own Annie Pruitt was Born on the 4th of July and we still totally let her think that the fireworks are all for her!   We had a couple of weeks off, ish, while Annie was in Europe with her family, but we have a HUGE new list of amazing topics coming down the pike soon, AND I promise that Doug Ferguson and Heather Zeitzwolfe will be back as well.   So - this character actor thing...Annie and I both approached our research a little differently and found some "rules" on what qualifies as a character actor role.  A fairly standard definition, like this one from Studio Binder, states, "A character actor is a film or television performer who specializes in portraying unique, offbeat, colorful characters in supporting roles. The term can be applied to actors who excel in one specific type of character or those who transform themselves for each role and take on a wide range of character types."  However, I found myself trying desperately to stay within the lines of these particular rules, as stated on New York Magazine's VULTURE site: ➼ The Jenkins Rule: If a performer has been nominated for an Oscar, that performer is ineligible. ➼ The Dowd-Martindale Rule: If a performer has won a lead or supporting actor Emmy, that performer is ineligible. (Winners of an Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor are permitted.) ➼ The Hahn Rule: If a performer currently works primarily as a lead, that performer is ineligible. Well, you will notice that Annie and I tried to yield to those "recommendations," and it's easier said than done, let me tell you.  Our list primarily consists of contemporary actors who are still with us, but I do pull one very classic actor out of the mix for my list.  and having said that, not only will we be bringing out a list of our Top Five Favorite Female Character Actors, but we'll be throwing out a few additional mixes because I'll be damned if we're going to have a character actor conversation which does not include Gary Oldman (come to think of it, he might even get his own show!).   Anyway - enjoy!!

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Camel es un grupo de rock británico, formado en Londres en 1969 y consolidado en 1971. Es uno de los pioneros del rock progresivo, y uno de los pilares fundamentales del género, junto a bandas como Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, o King Crimson. También participó en la Escena de Canterbury. Considerada como una de las mejores bandas inglesas surgidas en la década de 1970, Camel combinó elementos tomados del jazz, la música clásica y barroca, el blues e incluso la música electrónica, para crear álbumes de notable creatividad y precisión técnica. Los inicios de Camel se sitúan hacia 1964, cuando los hermanos Andrew e Ian Latimer se unieron a sus amigos Alan Butcher y Richard Over para formar un grupo llamado The Phantom Four. En 1969, Andrew organiza otro grupo, The Brew, junto a Doug Ferguson en el bajo y Andy Ward en la batería. El trío se unió al solista Phil Goodhand-Tait para la grabación del disco "I think I´ll Write A Song" y su posterior gira a principios de 1971. Para diciembre de 1971, Camel ha adquirido ya su nombre definitivo y la formación clásica del grupo, con Peter Bardens (teclados, voz), Doug Ferguson (bajo, voz), Andy Ward (batería, percusiones) y Andrew Latimer (guitarra, flauta, voz). En agosto de 1972, firmaron un contrato con MCA Records y grabaron su primer disco. En medio de las grabaciones, el productor Dave Williams les sugiere que contraten un cantante. Tras realizar una audición a casi 30 candidatos, deciden cantar ellos mismos. El timbre peculiar de las voces de Latimer y Bardens se convierte en uno de los rasgos distintivos del grupo. Su álbum homónimo de debut lanzado en 1973, Camel, obtiene poco éxito. Sin embargo, con el tiempo se convertiría en uno de sus trabajos más representativos. Canciones como Slow Yourself Down o Never Let Go y números instrumentales como Arubaluba o Six Ate fueron perfilando el sonido de la banda. La exigencia y falta de éxito comercial les lleva a romper con su discográfica, tras lo cual recalan en Decca, con la que permanecieron durante los diez años siguientes. El primer disco para Decca, segundo de su carrera, fue Mirage. Álbum grabado noviembre de 1973 y lanzado en marzo del año siguiente. Aquí Latimer se estrena ejecutando la flauta, dándole un nuevo sonido característico a la banda. No hubo sencillo de promoción, ni tampoco entró en las listas inglesas, pero la respuesta de los medios de comunicación en general con el disco acabado era muy prometedora. La prestigiosa revista Sounds fue una de las primeras en alabar el trabajo y Andy Ward y Doug Ferguson fueron descritos como una máquina bien engrasada. Aún más lejos fue la revista musical Beat que declaró a Mirage como Álbum del Mes, y finalmente llegó la sorpresa cuando el disco entró en los Billboard Top 149 y permaneció visible durante nada menos que 13 semanas. Hoy, Mirage está considerado como uno de los discos imprescindibles dentro del rock sinfónico de todos los tiempos. La revista Rolling Stone lo incluyó en el puesto 21 de los 50 grandes discos de Rock Progresivo de todos los tiempos.​ En abril de 1975 editan el álbum The Snow Goose, enteramente instrumental, que está basado en la novela homónima de Paul Gallico. Aunque el propio escritor mostró su descontento, pues los relacionó con la marca de cigarrillos —Gallico los detestaba— se trata de una obra magistral que se convertiría en el álbum clásico del grupo. El 17 de abril de 1975 el álbum fue presentado en un concierto en el Royal Albert Hall de la capital inglesa junto a la Orquesta Sinfónica de Londres . Fue el paso definitivo de Camel a la escena internacional. Por vez primera entra en las listas inglesas de los álbumes más vendidos alcanzando el Top 20 y manteniéndose en listas durante más de tres meses , alcanzando el honor de revistas prestigiosas como Melody Maker y participaron en el programa de televisión "Old Grey Whistle Test" de la BBC (donde actuaron junto a una pequeña orquesta de cámara). En 1976 editan Moonmadness, reclutando al saxofonista Mel Collins para su presentación en vivo. El baterista Ward empujaba el sonido de la banda hacia el jazz y eso trajo las primeras tensiones en el grupo, que dieron como resultado la marcha de Ferguson. En 1977 se edita Rain Dances, con varias colaboraciones de músicos como Brian Eno, y entra al grupo Richard Sinclair, ex-Caravan. En 1978 sale el álbum Breathless, tras cuyo lanzamiento Peter Bardens abandona Camel. Como sustitutos para la gira correspondiente contrataron dos teclistas: Dave Sinclair, primo de Richard Sinclair y ex-Caravan, y a Jan Schelhaas, que más adelante acabarían uniéndose a Caravan. Estos cuatro últimos trabajos discográficos les dieron el éxito tanto en Europa como en Japón. Al finalizar la última gira, los Sinclair se fueron y les relevaron Kit Watkins y Colin Bass. Esta formación grabó su álbum más comercial hasta la fecha, I Can See Your House From Here (1979). El grupo inició la década con el álbum conceptual Nude (1981), basado en la historia del soldado japonés Hiroo Onoda, que se mantuvo oculto durante varios años después de acabada la Segunda Guerra Mundial, sin saber que ésta ya había acabado. Para este disco Latimer tuvo que recurrir a los teclados de Duncan MacKay, ya que Watkins y Bass andaban inmersos en otros proyectos, si bien participaron en la gira de presentación del LP. Comenzó a colaborar en las letras la esposa de Latimer, Susan Hoover. Ya en 1981 la compañía discográfica celebra los diez años del grupo y la cifra de 1.500.000 copias vendidas de sus discos anteriores y edita "The Chamaleón" un recopilatorio con canciones escogidas por Latimer y Ward. A mediados de 1981, Andy Ward abandona la banda por problemas con las drogas y el alcohol y Camel se disuelve. Sin grupo y presionado por la discográfica para sacar un nuevo disco, Latimer se rodea de músicos invitados para sacar The Single Factor. Luego saldría Stationary Traveller, álbum en que Latimer buscó la colaboración de Ton Scherpenzeel, teclista del grupo neerlandés Kayak, y el baterista Paul Burges. Este trabajo fue muy bien recibido por la crítica y Colin Bass volvió para la gira, junto con Chris Rainbow y Richie Close. A partir de este momento, Bass estaría presente en todas las formaciones de Camel. Tras la publicación de Pressure Points, concierto grabado durante la gira de 1984, la banda desapareció por un largo periodo. A inicios de la década de 1990 Latimer volvió a usar el nombre de Camel, aunque él era ya el único miembro fundador que permanecía en el grupo. Decide vender su casa en Inglaterra y se muda a Estados Unidos, donde funda el sello discográfico Camel Productions. En el año 1991 el grupo edita Dust and Dreams, un álbum conceptual basado en la novela Las uvas de la ira de John Steinbeck. Dust and Dreams fue escrito a mediados de los ochenta pero Andy Latimer reescribió gran parte del álbum ya en California incorporando músicos estadounidenses. Tras siete años sin salir de gira el grupo se pone en marcha como cuarteto con Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Paul Burgess más la inclusión de Mickey Simmons (ex-Mike Oldfield, Fish) en los teclados. Tanto la gira como el disco fue muy bien recibido por la crítica, especialmente en el Norte de Europa, lo que en cierta manera significaba un éxito para el grupo tras apostar por su independencia del mainstream. Ahora, con la total libertad artística consolidada Camel comienza una producción discográfica de los años siguientes que comprende numerosos álbumes en directo de anteriores giras y nuevos álbumes y colaboraciones con otros artistas. El siguiente álbum en estudio concebido entre Andy y su esposa Susan, fue Harbour of Tears (1996), dedicado al puerto de Cobh (Irlanda), desde donde embarcaron muchos emigrantes hacia EE. UU. durante la gran hambruna irlandesa de 1845-1849. Tras ello realizaron una gira por Estados Unidos, Europa y Japón, tras la cual editaron Coming of Age en doble CD y DVD grabado en directo en la misma. Harbour of Tears recuperó a muchos de los seguidores de Camel y entra en las listas Neerlandesas devolviendo al grupo el interés de los seguidores del rock progresivo. En 1999 la banda formada por Latimer, Stewart, Bass y Scherpenzeel grabó Rajaz, un retorno a sus raíces de rock progresivo, inspirado en el rastro dejado por los dromedarios en desierto que sirve de guía a los nómadas. Álbum diferente en composición a los dos anteriores en el que predominaba la música más sinfónica y compuesta desde el piano, en este nuevo disco la guitarra se convierte en centro de la mayoría de los temas. Ese mismo año, Colin Bass edita un álbum en solitario, el fabuloso "An Outcast of the Islands" que contaba con la participación de sus compañeros Andy Latimer y Dave Stewart. Pero tras la grabación del disco, Stewart deja la banda y se muda a Escocia, y para la gira de ese año, fue sustituido por Denis Clement, incorporándose también a los teclados Guy LeBlanc. Quedando la formación de la siguiente manera: Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Denis Clement y Guy Leblanc. A mediados del año 2000 emprenden una serie de conciertos y en 2001 por primera vez, el grupo realiza una exitosa gira por Sudamérica. En el 2002 lanzan un nuevo álbum de estudio titulado A Nod and a Wink, como homenaje a Peter Bardens, fallecido en enero del mismo año, y en 2003 emprenden una gira mundial a la que denominan "The Last Farewell" con la que comunican el fin de giras mundiales y centrarse más en giras más limitadas en espacio y tiempo. Luego de un tiempo, el grupo desaparece de escena durante un largo período, dando a conocer pocas noticias de Camel. Andy Latimer y Susan Hoover anuncian que retornan a Inglaterra donde establecen nuevamente la base de operaciones de Camel Productions en el futuro. En el año 2006 aparece la noticia de una colaboración de Andy Latimer con Roger Waters de Pink Floyd para unirse a la gira de Dark Side Of The Moon, pero finalmente no se lleva a cabo. En el año 2008 publican en su sitio oficial que una grave enfermedad había afectado la salud de Andrew Latimer. Este mismo año recibe un trasplante de médula ósea acompañado de un intenso tratamiento, con el cual logra recuperar casi el total de su salud. Tras esta conmovedora noticia para Camel, la banda se toma una pausa indefinida, esperando la recuperación completa de Latimer, y tampoco dan a conocer nuevas noticias. Finalmente en el año 2010 se publica el DVD The Opening Farewell, perteneciente al último concierto dado en su última gira, y Andy comienza a reaparecer como músico sesionista en varios álbumes y colaboraciones con distintos grupos. Camel regresa en 2013 a los escenarios con una extensa gira por Europa y Reino Unido de conciertos celebrando los 40 años del mítico álbum The Snow Goose, del cual se publica una reedición. Bajo la nueva formación compuesta por Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Guy LeBlanc, Jason Hart y Denis Clement, el grupo vuelve a surgir en escena. Durante la gira se graba el concierto en el Teatro Barbican de Londres y editado posteriormente en DVD In From The Cold, que se divide en 2 discos. Andy Latimer recibió en 2014 el premio Lifetime Achievement de mano de la prestigiosa revista musical Prog de teamrock.com y una nominación en la categoría de Evento en Vivo por la gira The Snow Goose. Para 2014-15 el grupo gira nuevamente por Europa presentando esta vez un repertorio de los temas más emblemáticos de su larga trayectoria, con especial atención al álbum Moonmadness el cual tocan casi al completo. La formación sigue siendo la misma excepto la incorporación de Ton Scherpenzeel en sustitución debido a grave enfermedad de Guy LeBlanc, fallecido en 2015. En mayo de 2016, Camel extiende sus actuaciones a Japón y Andy Latimer afirma tener grabado material casi para cinco discos, pero sin confirmar si al menos algo de ese nuevo material será editado. El puesto de teclista lo ocupa el joven Pete Jones. El 17 de septiembre de 2018 Camel inició su gira "Moonmadness Tour 2018" en el Royal Albert Hall de Londres, donde grabaron su último material audiovisual. El 29 de noviembre de 2021 Camel anunció en su sitio oficial una gira por Reino Unido para junio de 2023, motivo de celebración por sus 50 años de carrera. Camel ha sido citado como influencia por artistas y bandas como Opeth, Rick Astley, The Alan Parsons Project, Brian Eno, Steven Wilson, Dream Theater, Änglagård, etc. Pagina Oficial: https://www.camelproductions.com/Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal - (Recopilation).

Hey everyone!  We are totally not kidding - we ARE going to be spoiling some movies for you today.  If you're someone who gets easily pissed off at stuff like this, you can scroll down to the bottom and see the list of films we cover so you can watch them before listening to the show.  Or not.  But don't say we didn't warn you.   My buddy Doug Ferguson is back again for this episode and I'll tell you right now that Doug is going to be a regular.  He and I share the same brain and I'm so totally stoked to explore more Top Five lists with him as we continue to develop this show. Simply put - what is a spoiler alert?  A spoiler alert takes place when a warning that important detail of the plot development is about to be revealed.  And in this case, there are some amazing surprise endings that we're going to talk about - but it's because these surprise endings are so iconic that we can't help but dive right into them.   A couple of these films are a little bit "off the beaten path," so Doug and I are hoping that we give you some new entertainment to pursue AND that you'll shoot us an email about our lists (hello@thetopfivepodcast.com). And just in case you, too, happen to be a Higher Education Professional in the advancement and development area, we hope that you'll come to hang out with me and Doug at the CASE Conference for Community Colleges in Anaheim this coming October 26-28.  Doug and I fully intend to do a LIVE episode during cocktail hour.  Come hang out with us! P.S. Here are some of the movies we discuss in this episode:  Unbreakable, No Way Out, The Usual Suspects, Psycho, Frailty, Primal Fear, Halloween, The Crying Game, and a few others.

Firestone Country Club has played host to professional golf tournaments since 1954, including three major championships, the former World Series of Golf and the current WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. But this weekend, the world's best golfers will tee it up in Akron for the final time before the tournament moves to Memphis next year. Doug Ferguson has covered golf for the Associated Press for 20 years, and he has been on hand for nearly every big moment at Firestone over the past two decades. On a special episode of The Nail, Ferguson shares some classic tales from Firestone's storied history—many of which prominently involve Tiger Woods, who has won in Akron eight times and will play Firestone for the first time since 2014 this weekend. From the “Shot in the Dark” to Sunday showdowns to an approach shot that rolled off the clubhouse roof and ended up in the cart of a guy delivering crunchy cream pies, if you've ever been to Firestone, this is an episode you won't want to miss. *** Don't forget: Travis is once again riding in Pelotonia to raise money for cancer research.

As a grand introduction to Chambers by Chilly Gonzales, we properly thank Doug Ferguson of the Music A to Z Podcast for recommending it, we talk a bit about their podcast, a bit about Chilly himself, and for our topic we address our own experiences with classical music over the years and reflect on the nasty habit of classical "avoidance".

Help support The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast by becoming a Patron! Hosted by Remi Lavictoire, Bonnie Beyea and Mr. Blahg Get the Sci-Fi Movie Podcast Archive for 5 Bucks! This week on The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast, Jonathan and Rem are joined by Bonnie from TableTop Setup and Mr. Blahg from Under The Comic Covers to dig deeper into the three 'The Thing' movies, based on the 1938 Novella 'Who Goes There?', written by John W. Campbell Jr. The PositiveAll three films succeed in different ways to tell a creepy story of an Alien invader who literally absorbs and imitates its victims. The first version in 1951 strays somewhat from the original story, but presents a story with strong dialogue, good character development and leaves the viewer with a sense of optimism once the credits roll. John Carpenter's version from 1982 goes into much darker material with gore and creature effects that still make a lasting impression. Carpenter also built a strong sense of fear and paranoia, making it impossible to know who to trust. The 2011 Prequel gave us the backstory of the Norwegian station that was discovered by the crew of the 1982 version.  Staying pretty close to the Alien from 82 and the Novella, we have slightly more Female representation in the roles of Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Kim Bubbs. The NegativeIt's difficult to feel any sense of fear of James Arness as The Thing in the 1951.  Granted, it may have been terrifying in the 50's, but a big plant creature (described as an 'Intellectual Carrot') certainly won't be scaring anyone.  Since the film is over 60 years old, we can forgive that. It was tougher to find fault with the Carpenter version, since it told the story so well, and really swung for the fence with creature effects.  Mr. Blahg didn't like MacReady's hat...so there's that. With the 2011 Prequel, we thought the end sequence at the Alien craft was a bit Hollywood, and the story would have been best resolved at the Norwegian camp, but again not much wrong here. The VerdictWe all agreed that the 82 and 2011 should be watched, the 82 is certainly required viewing, and the 2011 will give good background on the events that transpired before the 82.  You can watch in either order. Mr. Blahg and Bonnie suggest watching the 2011 and then go back to the 82.  We all concluded that the 1951 can be watched for fun, but it's not essential. Watch "The Thing from Another World" free on YouTube! Visit "Does The Dog Die?" (https://www.doesthedogdie.com/) to find out if a dog is harmed or killed in a movie.   Listener Feedback   Jennifer RobertsonI have not seen the first, and I barely remember the remake. But the Carpenter version I love. Being a horror and sci-fi fan, I love it when the 2 are blended successfully, but they are not often as successfully fused as they are in this version of The Thing. Rewatching the movie for the podcast I was impressed that although old, it is not any less watchable because of it's age. The tension is there, the atmosphere is there, and Wilford Brimley is there.Too often horror tries to set itself in a sci-fi environment, with disastrous results that just come off as cheesy and very weak. While these disasters are almost an insult to true sci-fi fans, please understand that for us horror fans it is nice to have the catalyst of a story NOT be from the bible, a burial ground, an eclipse, a curse or a crypt….sometimes having the monster come from outer space is a refreshing change, even if the science part of the fiction is bad.It was interesting to see the interaction between the men in the group once the fear and mistrust set in. I think when horror is done well it strips us down to our core, to our primal emotions and selves, not our contrived “civilized” selves and in that sense it can complement the mirror on humanity that good sci-fi does so well (to quote you guys!!). Mike GorhamI have never seen the original sadly. I thought the prequel was done very well even with the CGI syncing up to the Carpenter movie. The Thing is my favorite movie. Its a shame we won't see a sequel from Carpenter. The PS2 sequel game did a great job telling a story and Carpenter(quite the gamer himself) even said the game is a perfectly sequel so he won't make one himself Kevin McVeyI've only seen the Carpenter version but I think it is one of the best horror films and a very underrated film in general. Many things stand out in this film for me: think the special effects are some of the best EVER in a movie because they have not aged at all. Even after 33 years the visuals look (to me) as good as they did when I saw the film 15 years ago Nick JensenI have not seen the original, interested to hear your opinion of it, but Carpenter's The Thing is a classic and one of the best sci-fi movies around; definitely an essential. When you think of sci-fi/horror movies The Thing and Alien are the movies that come to mind, and the suspense and tension that Carpenter builds in this movie is amazing. I liked the idea of the prequel explaining what happened prior to Carpenters movie, but I never got around to seeing it, I hope it doesn't ruin any of Carpenters work and eager to hear if you recommend watching it. I have read the story this was based on, 'Who Goes There?' by John Campbell, and recommend it if you're interested in the source material for these films. Can't wait to hear your thoughts! Seth HeasleyI actually like all three. The first is a very 50s version, the Carpenter film is fantastic with all those gorious (not a typo) effects, and the third one, while not a great film, hit some of the same beats without taking anything away from the Carpenter version. Michael SimshauserI've seen all three and I can recommend two out of the three. The 1951 version is a Science Fiction classic with all the pitfalls of being a 50s SciFi movie but being one of the first of that decade. The 1982 version is one of the only movies I can think of where the remake is better than the original. From Carpenters direction, Ennio Morricone's haunting score, Rob Bottin's great effects and fantastic cinematography by Dean Cundey it all comes together as a masterpiece, that was unfortunately released at the same time as ET. This movie is the pinnacle of Science Fiction/Thriller/Horror and is absolutely essential viewing. Doug FergusonHaven't seen the 50's version, but I've seen the other two. The 80's version is the clear winner, but I also feel that the 2011 one is dismissed too quickly. It's actually a pretty decent prequel to John Carpenter's version.You guys should dig up the video of the practical effects they were initially going to use for this latest version. They looked incredible and I think it's a shame that they opted out for standard CGI. Wasn't bad CG, but those original effects were incredible and in the same vein as the 1982 movie. Would have linked them up better in my opinion. Thanks to Doug Ferguson for the link to a clip on the creating of some of the creatures... Josh AdamsI haven't seen the original, but Carpenter's version is still my favorite horror movie. I still have a hard time watching it for whatever reason. I actually really enjoyed the prequel as well. It's not nearly on the same level as the 1982 film, but still very moody and jarring. It doesn't hurt that Mary Elizabeth Winstead is in it. Oh my. Ton de WitteSeen all three, the best in my opinion is the 82 version. The 82 version was of course a remake of the first version but added stuff and changed enough to make it a far better and original movie. The first version is a good movie but a true child of its time with an arrogant scientist and other things of the era. The 2011 movie is almost a step by step remake of the 82 one even if the lead is female this time. This does not mean it is a bad movie and it has a few original things but it doesn't have the surprises of the 82 version if you saw that one first. I did like that the 2011 version stops where the 82 began. Overall I would rank them 82, original, 2011. 82 and original are essential viewing 2011 is not essential but still an enjoyable movie.Jordan Bonaparte from The Night Time Podcast (http://nighttimepodcast.com/)I'm a huge fan of Carpenter's #TheThing , had no idea it was based on a book/ prior movie #Mindblown now I got weekend plans! Tony ArnoldiSecond was the best! Heather McAlendin-KendallWatched all three. I enjoyed the 82 version the best but certainly got a charge out of the original for it's time period it was entertaining.

This week on The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast, Rem, Ian and Jonathan welcome Doug Ferguson from 'The Music A to Z Podcast and Checking The Gate Podcast to help us discuss "Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace" from 1999 and directed by George Lucas. The PositiveDoug enjoyed seeing familiar characters such as R2D2, Yoda and a somewhat incomplete C-3PO, which added an anchor point to the story. Great costumes and outstanding sound design, but that's about it! The NegativeWhile the  problems with The Phantom Menace are too long to list completely, we highlighted a weak and non engaging storyline with wooden and uninteresting characters.  As Roger says in the comments, this is a movie that just didn't need to be made. The VerdictIf by some wonder happenstance you've not seen The Phantom Menace or the two movies that followed, good for you.  Do yourself a favor and avoid this prequel series at all costs.    Listener Feedback Brian Campbell Is this being reviewed this weekend? If so, here's my comment: Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is the perfect example of what happens when a producer becomes so powerful that no one around him is willing to say "Hey, that's not such a great idea.". I guess the same could be said for Episodes 2 & 3. I believe, in my heart, that Empire Strikes Back Lucas would have talked Phantom Menace Lucas out of Jar Jar Binks. Roger CousineauWhat could have saved this movie and made it better? Forget saving. I don't think it was required at all! We didn't need a Darth Vader origin story. But if the itch to make a prequel was something George Lucas absolutely needed to scratch, then may I suggest he could have taken the way-way back machine at ludicrous speed and made a wholly original movie set a long, long time ago in the past. For instance, I could have gone for a crazy origin story about the Jedi Order. Cheers! Victor DraxWHERE DID IT GO WRONG: Right in development. the first question we should ask ourselves is "Do we need this movie?" And I mean, why not start at the story shown in Episode II, or mix I & II? I know the real reason is "because that way we'd sell less", but the biggest fault in Episode I is a lack of protagonist (if we have Obi Wan, why do we need Qui Gon?) that we like, with a goal that we care about. WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER: Forgetting about this and Episode II and starting at the story in Episode III, which is where the real important events happen. Everything before could be referenced briefly. I know, George, that you want to sell those toys, but think about your body of work. We asked how Phantom Menace could have been made better?Bonnie suggested fire Wayne HendersonAll of the visual effects just looked so sterile and fake, even when it was first released. The music was good, though. Jason CabassiI just watched this again recently. It was worse than I remembered! Sterile acting, boring, confusing, contrived plotting. Horrible jokes. But yeah, the lightsaber battle with Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Darth Maul was fantastic. And Ian McDiarmid is a great villain. And the pod race was pretty fun, too. BTW, my 4-year-old son sat through all three original movies in the days prior. He was transfixed. But with the prequels, he got bored and lost interest. For ROTS he just said "Can we skip to the part where Anakin turns into Dark Vader?" Ton de WitteThe big problem with prequels in a franchise as big as star wars is the expectations they generate and the impossibility to fulfill those expectations. Now Jar Jar Banks should have stuck his tongue in the race pod the whole movie, and a better young actor to play Anakin would both have been a big improvement. Having said this the light sabre battles and the pod race were good as was McDiarmid. To conclude I don't care which universe you came from, some parts of the movie had to hurt. Erik FetenPoo-doo jokes have no place in my SW universe.   The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast is a member of the Podcastica Network, visit Podcastica.com The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast is partially funded by Patreon.
