Total Recall 2012 movie review is mostly the Salty Nerds talking about how many times they fell asleep while watching this extremely boring action movie. This "reimagining" of the classic Arnold Schwarzenegger film from Paul Verhoeven comes to us from the creator of the Underworld franchise, Len Wiseman. Starring Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, and Bryan Cranston, Total Recall is the story of Douglas Quaid who may or may not be a secret agent that's forced to choose between his hot wife and his hot girlfriend in order to save the world from evil corporate interests, all while never going to Mars. Though this movie is visually stunning (with lots of lens flare!) and the actors are all very good looking, it's missing the charm and fun of the original film, and is the epitome of a "slacktion" film.

Get your ass to Mars!In this episode, we dive into the sci-fi classic Total Recall starring the Terminator himself: Arnold Schwarzenegger.

With a budget of $50–60 million, Total Recall was one of the most expensive films made at the time of its release, although estimates of its production budget vary and whether it ever actually held the record is not certain.Remembrances2 June 1785 – Jean Paul de Gua de Malves - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Paul_de_Gua_de_MalvesFrench mathematician who published in 1740 a work on analytical geometry in which he applied it, without the aid of differential calculus, to find the tangents,asymptotes, and various singular points of an algebraic curve. He further showed how singular points and isolated loops were affected by conical projection. He gave the proof of Descartes's rule of signs which is to be found in most modern works. It is not clear whether Descartes ever proved it strictly, and Newton seems to have regarded it as obvious. De Gua de Malves was acquainted with many of the French philosophes during the last decades of theAncien Régime. He was an early, short-lived, participant, then editor (later replaced by Diderot) of the project that ended up as theEncyclopédie. Dennis Diderot called him "profound geometrician" at his funeral. He died in Paris.2 June 1970 – Albert Lamorisse - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_LamorisseFrench filmmaker, film producer, and writer of award-winning short films which he began making in the late 1940s. He also invented the strategic board game Risk originally released as La Conquête du Monde (The Conquest of the World) in France in 1957. Lamorisse's best known work is the short film The Red Balloon (1956), which earned him the Palme d'Or Grand Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, and an Oscar for writing the Best Original Screenplay in 1956. In the mid-sixties Lamorisse shot parts of The Prospect of Iceland, a documentary about Iceland, which was made by Henry Sandoz and commissioned by NATO. He died in a helicopter crash in Karaj while filming the documentaryLe Vent des amoureux (The Lovers' Wind), during a helicopter-tour in 1970 at the age of 48.2 June 1990 – Rex Harrison - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rex_HarrisonSir Reginald Carey Harrison, known as Rex Harrison, was an English actor of stage and screen. Harrison began his career on the stage in 1924. He made his West End debut in 1936 appearing in the Terence Rattigan play French Without Tears, in what was his breakthrough role. He won his first Tony Award for his performance as Henry VIII in the play Anne of the Thousand Days in 1949. He won his second Tony for the role of Professor Henry Higgins in the stage production of My Fair Lady in 1957. In addition to his stage career, Harrison also appeared in numerous films. His first starring role was opposite Vivien Leigh in the romantic comedy Storm in a Teacup . His other roles since then include Cleopatra as Julius Cesar, My Fair Lady ( reprising his role as Henry Higgins which earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor), and the title role of the English doctor who talks to animals, Doctor Dolittle (1967). Harrison was not by any objective standards a singer (his talking on pitch style he used in My Fair Lady would be adopted by many other classically trained actors with limited vocal ranges); the music was usually written to allow for long periods of recitative, or "speaking to the music". Nevertheless, "Talk to the Animals", which Harrison performed in Doctor Dolittle, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1967. He died from pancreatic cancer in Manhattan,New York City at the age of 82.2 June 2017 – Peter Sallis - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_SallisEnglish actor, known for his work on British television.

He also voiced Rat in The Wind in the Willows animated series, appeared in Danger Man in the episode "Find and Destroy" as Gordon; the BBCDoctor Who serial "The Ice Warriors" as renegade scientist Elric Penley and in an episode of The Persuaders! "The Long Goodbye" . While a student in 1983, animator Nick Park wrote to Sallis asking him if he would voice his character Wallace, an eccentric inventor. Sallis agreed to do so for a donation of £50 to his favourite charity. The work was eventually released in 1989 and Aardman Animations' Wallace and Gromit: A Grand Day Out went on to win a BAFTA award.Sallis reprised his role in the Oscar- and BAFTA Award-winning films The Wrong Trousers in 1993 and A Close Shave in 1995. His last role as Wallace was in 2010's Wallace and Gromit's World of Invention. Sallis then retired due to ill health, with Ben Whitehead taking over the role. He died from natural causes in Denville Hall, London at the age of 96.Famous Birthdays2 June 1774 – William Lawson - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lawson_(explorer)English-born Australian explorer, land owner, grazier and politician who migrated to Sydney,New South Wales in 1800. Along with his close friends and colleagues Gregory Blaxland and William Wentworth, he pioneered the first successful crossing of the Blue Mountains by European settlers. Lawson commenced his exploration of the Blue Mountains alongside Blaxland and William Charles Wentworth on 11 May 1813. He kept a journal of the expedition titled, 'W Lawsons Narrative. Across Blue Mountains'. After the crossing, Lawson, like Blaxland and Wentworth, was rewarded with a grant of 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land by Governor Macquarie. He selected his land along the Campbells River, part of the Bathurst settlement for which he was appointed Commandant until his retirement in 1824. Whilst Commandant he continued to undertake expeditions, and in 1821, with Constable Blackman, discovered the Cudgegong River and further explored Mudgee and its outlying regions. In 1963 Lawson was honoured, together with Blaxland and Wentworth, on a postage stamp issued by Australia Post depicting the Blue Mountains crossing. He was born in Middlesex.2 June 1904 – Johnny Weissmuller - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_WeissmullerAustro-Hungarian-born American competition swimmer, water polo player and actor. He was known for playing Edgar Rice Burroughs' ape man Tarzan in films of the 1930s and 1940s and for having one of the best competitive swimming records of the 20th century. Weissmuller was one of the world's fastest swimmers in the 1920s, winning five Olympic gold medals for swimming and one bronze medal for water polo. He was the first to break the one minute barrier for 100-meter freestyle, and the first to swim 440-yard freestyle under five minutes. He won fifty-two U.S. national championships, set more than 50 world records (spread over both freestyle and backstroke),and was purportedly undefeated in official competition for the entirety of his competitive career. After retiring from competitions, he became the sixth actor to portray Tarzan, a role he played in twelve feature films. Dozens of other actors have also played Tarzan, but Weissmuller is by far the best known. Weissmuller's distinctive Tarzan yell is still often used in films in his legacy. His acting career began when he signed a seven-year contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and played the role of Tarzan in Tarzan the Ape Man (1932). The movie was a huge success and Weissmuller became an overnight international sensation. The author of Tarzan, Edgar Rice Burroughs, was pleased with Weissmuller, although he so hated the studio's depiction of a Tarzan who barely spoke English. In a total of 12 Tarzan films, Weissmuller earned an estimated $2,000,000 and established himself as what many movie historians consider the definitive Tarzan. When Weissmuller finally left the role of Tarzan, he immediately traded his loincloth costume for a slouch hat and safari suit for the role of Jungle Jim for Columbia. He made 13 Jungle Jim films between 1948 and 1954. He was born in Szabadfalva (Freidorf).2 June 1961 – Liam Cunningham - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liam_CunninghamIrish stage and screen actor. He is known for playing Davos Seaworth in the HBO epic-fantasy series Game of Thrones. Cunningham has been nominated for the London Film Critics' Circle Award, the British Independent Film Award, has won two Irish Film & Television Awards, and shared a BAFTA with Michael Fassbender, for their crime-drama short film Pitch Black Heist. Cunningham came to international prominence with his role as Captain Ryan in the critically acclaimed, independent horror film,Dog Soldiers. Cunningham was producer Philip Segal’s first choice to portray the Eighth Doctor in the TV movie of Doctor Who (1996), but was vetoed by Fox executives. He was born inEast Wall,Dublin.4 June 1950 – Clifford Stoll - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifford_StollClifford Paul "Cliff" Stoll, American astronomer, author and teacher. He is best known for his investigation in 1986, while working as a systems administrator at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, that led to the capture of hackerMarkus Hess, and for Stoll's subsequent book The Cuckoo's Egg, in which he details the investigation. Stoll has written three books, articles in the non-specialist press and is a frequent contributor to the mathematics YouTube channel Numberphile. In 1986, while employed as a systems administrator at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Stoll investigated a tenacious hacker—later identified as KGB recruit Markus Hess—who stole passwords, pirated multiple computer accounts, and attempted to breach US military security. After identifying the intrusion, Stoll set up a honeypot for Hess, eventually tracking him down and passing details to the authorities. It is recognized as one of the first examples of digital forensics. In his 1995 book Silicon Snake Oil and an accompanying article in Newsweek, Stoll called the prospect of e-commerce "baloney". Stoll also raised questions about the influence of the Internet on future society, and whether it would be beneficial. Stoll sells blown glass Klein bottles on the internet through his company Acme Klein Bottles. He stores his inventory in the crawlspace underneath his home and accesses it when needed with a homemade miniature robotic forklift. He runs the company out of his home. He was born in Buffalo, New York.Events of Interest2 June 1835 – 1835 – P. T. Barnum and his circus start their first tour of the United States - https://www.historyandheadlines.com/june-2-1835-pt-barnums-circus-starts-first-tour-us-business-may-21-2017/On June 2, 1835, American showman and huckster Phineas T. Barnum began his first tour of the US with his circus, later called “The Greatest Show on Earth,” and then “Barnum and Bailey’s Circus,” “Barnum and Bailey’s Greatest Show on Earth,” and finally “Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Circus.” Barnum became a showman in 1835 after his lottery business was shut down, ending a lucrative racket. He went to New York and started showing his first exhibit, an elderly, blind, black woman he touted as being 160 years old and formerly the nurse of George Washington. (The woman died the following year, age about 80.) He is widely credited with coining the adage "There's a sucker born every minute",although no proof can be found of him saying this. Barnum sometimes toured with his prize acts, including Colonel Tom Thumb, a diminutive midget Barnum claimed as the World’s Smallest Man.2 June 1910 – Charles Rolls, a co-founder of Rolls-Royce Limited, becomes the first man to make a non-stop double crossing of the English Channel by plane. - https://www.aircraftinteriorsinternational.com/features/remembering-royces-pioneering-flight.htmlAt 6.30pm on 2 June 1910, aviation pioneer Charles Stewart Rolls took off alone in his flimsy biplane from Swingate aerodrome, near Dover, to achieve the world’s first non-stop double crossing of the English Channel by aeroplane. According to a report in the Daily Telegraph newspaper, Rolls reached an altitude of 900ft and a speed of “quite forty miles an hour” as he approached the coast of France. By 7.15pm, he was flying over the small French town of Sangatte, where the present-day Channel Tunnel emerges. Leaning out of his aeroplane, he threw overboard three weighted envelopes, each containing the message: ‘Greetings to the Auto Club of France He was over Sangatte, France, at 19.15 and back in Dover at 20.00. The journey had taken 95 minutes and he circled the Castle in triumph! Over 3,000 people witnessed the event, after which Charles was carried through the town shoulder high. The Aero Clubs of both England and France presented him with special awards. London’s Madame Tussauds even began making a waxwork of him.2 June 2003 – Europe launches its first voyage to another planet, Mars. The European Space Agency's Mars Express probe launches from the Baikonur space center in Kazakhstan. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Express#LaunchThe mission, called Mars Express, will map the planet, use a powerful radar to probe its surface for evidence of water, and measure water concentrations in the atmosphere. The spacecraft was launched on June 2, 2003 at 23:45 local time from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, using a Soyuz-FG/Fregat rocket. The Mars Express and Fregat booster were initially put into a 200 km Earth parking orbit, then the Fregat was fired again to put the spacecraft into a Mars transfer orbit. The Mars Express was the first Russian-launched probe to successfully make it out of low Earth orbit since the Soviet Union fell. The space vehicle, which cost $350 million was initially put into Earth orbit, and about 90 minutes later was given the final push to send it on a six-month journey to Mars — the ESA's first interplanetary mission. Mars Express is to remain in its Martian orbit for at least one Martian year, 687 Earth days.IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes -https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS -http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/General EnquiriesEmail - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comRate & Review us on Podchaser - https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/nerds-amalgamated-623195

Our pairing of sci-fi action films with a side of meditation on memory and identity brings in the new CAPTAIN MARVEL to see how Carol Danvers’ journey of lost and reclaimed memories looks next to the very different (and much bloodier) journey taken by Douglas Quaid in Paul Verhoeven’s TOTAL RECALL. We share our reactions to CAPTAIN MARVEL and its choice to center its narrative on an amnesiac hero, then bring in TOTAL RECALL to compare the two films’ approaches to their central ideas about memory, how they function as science-fiction stories, how they treat their female characters, and more. Plus, Your Next Picture Show, where we share recent filmgoing experiences in hopes of putting something new on your cinematic radar.

This week we can remember it for you..for free! Douglas Quaid dreams of a beautiful woman, another world and another life in Total Recall. Loosely based on the Philip K. Dick story "We Can Remember it For You Wholesale" Director Paul Verhoeven takes Arnold Schwarzenegger from Earth to Mars alongside Sharon Stone, Michael Ironside, and Ronny Cox. Although maybe that was the dream Verhoeven had in 1990 and Director Len Wiseman's 2012 remake is the real deal. There is no Mars, but Colin Farrell, Kate Bekinsale, Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston, John Cho, and Bill Nighy will take you on a wild ride from one end of the planet to the other. Was it the vacation of a lifetime or did it all really happen for Quaid? Invasion of the Remake will try to find the answers for these sci-fi, action films in this week's episode.
