Growth happens near the edge of failure—but so does danger. How do you know when to push and when to escape? From June 7, 2026

Evan, Rémy and Marcus go one f'n hour on Stanley Kubrick's DR. STRANGELOVE, the unsettling Cold War masterpiece that confronts the specter of nuclear annihilation through absurdist satire and institutional madness. Along the way, they explore the culture of atomic anxiety that shaped the film, its disturbing parallels to our modern world, and the thematic connections it shares with Sidney Lumet's FAIL-SAFE and Michelangelo Antonioni's RED DESERT, two other 1964 classics grappling with humanity's fragile relationship to technology, power, and catastrophe.

Today on the 5: For the third film in our final week of "May-be It Won't Suck", Lando and I watched 1964's Fail-Safe. A cautionary tale about the involvement of computers in war as well as the inevitable result of human distrust, this movie is a remarkable triumph of intense storytelling across minimal scenes.

Jace of The Comic Source is joined by Rocky from Comic Boom! for this week's DC Spotlight as they break down a lighter but still varied week of DC releases. Batman/Superman: World's Finest #50 gets discussed for its Dr. Destiny dream story, Superman's dream Supermobile, and a backup featuring Robin, Supergirl, Batgirl and Jimmy Olsen in a rivalry-fueled mystery. Batman/Static Beyond #5 continues to build around older Static mentoring a younger Batman Beyond while Failsafe and the larger Q-energy conflict move the story forward. Adventures of Superman: Book of El #7 delivers another dense chapter in the House of El saga with Otho-Ra, the future descendants of Superman and the larger science fiction mythology continuing to expand. Batman #8 is a slower setup issue centered on Bruce Wayne's conversation with Alan Scott, the threat of Vandal Savage, and Gotham's mayor Poison Ivy turning the city against Batman and Robin. Absolute Superman #18 stands out with Lois Lane confronting Talia al Ghul over her father's death, Ra's al Ghul showing the effect Superman has had on him, and the issue introducing Absolute versions of John Henry Irons and King Shazam while also hinting at the Phantom Stranger. Poison Ivy #43 continues G. Willow Wilson's character-driven run with Pamela Isley using her position as mayor to go after Gotham's corruption, while also advancing the fallout with Harley Quinn, Janet from HR and the consequences of Bob Venus. Bizarro: Year None #1 offers a different take on Bizarro through a Jimmy Olsen and Perry White focused story that sends them to Bizarro World, with the Daily Planet itself playing into that world's creation. JSA #18 wraps up the Year One material while also including more of the Search for the Spectre backup and its focus on the newer generation of Justice Society characters. Mad About DC #1 serves as a full Mad Magazine-style send-up of DC characters, creators and fandom with multiple standout gags and a tone both hosts found genuinely funny. Batgirl #18 leans deeper into the Spirit World mythology, Cassandra Cain's growing connection to the Wu clan, and the question of whether Lady Shiva is capable of redemption. The episode also includes a rundown of the week's collected editions along with rankings for the books discussed and selections for Book of the Week.

Send us Fan MailPaper Discussed in this Episode: High-Sensitivity Pan-Cancer AI Assessment of Lymph Node Metastasis via Uncertainty Quantification. Wang X, Chen Y, Liu X, et al. npj Digit. Med. (2026).Episode Summary: In this episode, we explore a groundbreaking 2026 study that tackles the "black box" problem of medical AI. We dive into UPATHLN, a pan-cancer AI platform for detecting lymph node metastases that doesn't just try to be right—it explicitly knows when it might be wrong. By using an innovative "uncertainty" fail-safe, this system achieved an unprecedented 100% sensitivity while drastically cutting down pathologist workload.In This Episode, We Cover:• The Needle in the Haystack Problem: Why finding cancer in lymph nodes is crucial for patient survival and therapeutic decision-making, and why the sheer volume of rising cancer cases is overwhelming human pathologists.• The Danger of "Overconfident Errors": How standard deep learning models stumble on rare, "long-tail" tumor variants. Standard AI is prone to making incorrect predictions with high certainty on data it hasn't seen before, leading to dangerous missed diagnoses.• Meet UPATHLN - The Unified AI: Moving away from fragmented, organ-specific AI to a single, foundation-model-powered platform trained and validated on a massive dataset of 26,229 lymph nodes across 14 distinct primary organs.• The "Fail-Safe" Mechanism (Uncertainty Estimation): How the researchers built a decoupled module that acts as a clinical safety net. Instead of forcing a guess, the AI flags "High Uncertainty" (HU) regions—like atypical cells or distracting elements like anthracotic pigment—and routes them directly for mandatory human review.• The Results - 100% Rescue Rate: In independent testing, relying on the AI's diagnostic probability alone would have missed 60 metastases. However, the uncertainty module successfully intercepted all 60 of these initially missed cases, achieving a 100% conditional sensitivity, even on 7 rare cancer types the AI had never seen before during training.• The Future of the Lab: How UPATHLN safely eliminated 73.2% of negative lymph nodes from manual review. By liberating pathologists from routine triage, the system frees up time for advanced, multi-dimensional precision oncology that goes beyond simple staging.Key Takeaway: The key to safe clinical AI isn't just raw accuracy—it's failure awareness. By teaching AI to explicitly model its own uncertainty, the system intercepted all missed diagnoses, handled rare biological variants safely, and established a trustworthy, workload-efficient partnership between human experts and artificial intelligenceSupport the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!

Nach langer Pause setzen Christiane und ich unsere Weltuntergangsreihe fort. Mit den 60ern tauchen wir in die Angst vor dem Atomkrieg ein, die – wie wir feststellen müssen – plötzlich wieder topaktuell ist, denn der Film verhandelt vor allem auch Automatisierung und was passiert, wenn Menschen Computern die Kontrolle überlassen. Es geht viel um Ethik, um die Frage, ob das überhaupt ein Weltuntergangsfilm ist und um die Parallelen zu House of Dynamite. Der Torero!

Failsafe are proof that age has nothing to do with impact. The Sydney trio are only 18, yet they carry themselves with the confidence, humility and purpose of a band far beyond their years (oh yeah and they have a whopping three releases under their belt already!). Formed while still in school, Failsafe began as three friends jamming in a bedroom in Sydney's Inner West, chasing connection and catharsis rather than polish or hype.Those humble beginnings quickly spilled into local bowlo shows before snowballing into a relentless run of gigs across the city. In just two short years, Failsafe have become familiar faces in their local music scene, earning a loyal following through sweat-soaked, bleeding-heart rock performances that feel urgent and alive. They're not just playing punk and rock, they're actively pulling it back to what it was always meant to be: community, expression and somewhat-controlled chaos.Their fiercely DIY ethos defines everything they do. From generator-powered skate park and park pop ups to all-ages gigs, Failsafe prioritise inclusion, even inviting fans to be part of one their music videos. Musically, Theo Fernandez's fast-footed pulse drives the momentum, Anna Morrow's groovy bass anchors it, and Liam Elwing's screeching guitar and raw vocals cut deep.As Anna explains, “Growing up I felt like I could really understand what other people put out, but not really express myself verbally… being able to do that through music is an entirely different skill… it's being really vulnerable and also incredibly dangerous and exciting.” It's that intelligence and drive to take hold of goal after goal that sets Failsafe apart from all the garage bands that never get beyond the garage.They may be young, but these guys are mighty.

“If the salt that is to add taste to the world loses its savour, who then will restore it?” (Matthew 5:13) He explained that one major issue Jesus came to address is a religious mindset without true repentance and a sincere heart for God (Matthew 5:24; 1 John 4:20). We learned that love is a filtration system that makes our prayers clear to heaven (1 Corinthians 13:1–4). Hence emphasizing the need for love as a fruit of the Spirit. Here are key truths we learned about God's kind of love from today's sermon:

2 Peter 1:10 - 11 The post A FAIL SAFE 2026 appeared first on Calvary Chapel Chino Hills.

As always there are spoilers ahead!   You can follow the podcast on social media on Threads, Instagram and Bluesky.    If you would like to be a patron of the podcast you can join Patreon and for £3 or $3 a month you can get ad free version of the show. https://www.patreon.com/everyscififilm   In 1958 the Peter George novel Red Alert was published about the dangers of nuclear war. A few years later when Stanley Kubrick was looking to make a (serious) film about the topic he was recommended the book.   Dr Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb was the resulting film. The film takes aim at military strategy, rhetoric and the people involved to give us one of the most famous satires in cinema.   It would be quite easy to double the length of this episode, but we've tried to fit as much as we can into the hour with my two remarkable guests.   Mark Bould is a professor of Film and Literature at the University of West England, Bristol. He has written/edited extensively about science fiction cinema.   Rodney F Hill is a Professor of Film at the Lawrence Herbert School of Communication at Hofstra University and has written extensively about film.   This is the article I mention by Eric Schlosser: https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/almost-everything-in-dr-strangelove-was-true   Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:12 Source material 03:12 The threat of Lumet's Fail Safe 05:35 Herman Kahn, winnable nuclear war and the doomsday machine 08:25 Nazi scientist Wernher von Braun and Operation Paperclip 13:55 Nuclear policy and the Cold War 17:23 Doomsday comedy 25:51 Masculinity, techno-eroticism and bodily fluids 33:21 Peter Sellers 38:04 1960s satire boom 40:11 Production design of Ken Adam 41:25 Music 43:27 The changes to the film 46:32 Legacy 54:34 Recommendations     Recommendations: 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) and Fail Safe (1964).   NEXT EPISODE!

It is is available to stream and rent from Apple. The Just Watch website can give you a list of where the film is available in your region.    

Science fiction movies force us to face a multitude of end-of-the-world scenarios. Whether the final curtain is dropped by rampaging aliens, killer rocks from space, or virus-infected zombies, these big screen glimpses of a dystopian future are as tantalizing as they are frightening. But one American city seems to be a favorite backdrop for stories of mass destruction. We speak with a cultural critic about why New York City is often the chosen setting for disaster films, and what dystopian fiction reveals about our shifting anxieties about humanity's future no matter where we live. Movies discussed include Deep Impact, Escape from New York, Planet of the Apes, King Kong, Cloverfield, Deluge, Failsafe, The Day After Tomorrow, AI: Artificial Intelligence, Contagion, I Am Legend, and Seth's very own short film: The Turkey that Ate St. Louis Guest: Dan Saltzstein – Deputy Editor for Projects and Collaborations, New York Times Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network. Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com to inquire about advertising on Big Picture Science.

As always there are spoilers ahead! We've discussed Czech scifi before with Karel Zeman's gorgeous steam punk offering from 1958 Invention for Destruction (dubbed into the English language The Fabulous World of Jules Verne) and we've also covered Communists in Space with 1960s The Silent Star (AKA First Spaceship on Venus). The Czech Ikarie XB-1 (1963) has connections to both of those films but also offers an aesthetic that seems to directly inspire Kubrick for 2001: A Space Odyssey. The year is 2163, communism has won, and a crew of 40 are sent to find life on the white planet in Alpha Centauri with a journey fraught with sociological, psychological and physical challenges. I have two amazing academics to help give insight into the film. Evan Torner is an Associate Professor of German Studies and Niehoff Professor of Film & Media Studies at the University of Cincinnati. Simon Spiegel is a lecturer of Film Studies at the University of Zurich. He has written extensively about Science Fiction and Utopia and has just released the book The Fear of Knowing about spoilers in film and media.

I will be taking a detour next episode to talk about Afrofuturism which I've been wanting to discuss since the very early days of research before I launched the podcast. Almost two years late but I hope you enjoy it. After that we will be discussing Dr Strangelove and I would recommend you also watch Fail Safe (also 1964) if you have time.  

The film writers Robert Rubsam and Corey Atad join the show for a discussion of two apocalyptic nuclear thrillers, Sidney Lumet's Fail-Safe (1964) and Kathryn Bigelow's brand new Netflix production A House of Dynamite.Both Dr. Strangelove and Fail-Safe were released by Columbia Pictures within months of each other in 1964 (as the result of a lawsuit stemming from the respective novels the films were based on). The two films depict an accidental nuclear crisis from the perspective of command-and-control rooms helpless to prevent the impending bombing but Lumet's version is a serious critique of Game Theory from a humanist perspective, with the participation of creatives who had been caught up in the Hollywood Blacklist during the Cold War.Bigelow's modern version of such a tale of nuclear crisis, by contrast, has a lot less to say about the subject. We compare its structural shortcomings to Lumet's stark masterpiece, a film more plugged in to its zeitgeist than this new Netflix production is.Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

I've popped up on a movie podcast, War Movie Theatre with Rob Hutton and Duncan Weldon. Here is what they have to say about the show: "A 1964 film about accidental nuclear war from a legendary director and featuring a German scientist with homicidal ideas? That's right, it's Dr Strangelove… hang on, no, it's Fail Safe. Overshadowed on release because of a lawsuit from a rival film (you can guess which), this parable from Sidney Lumet has come to be regarded as a classic, with fans including George Clooney. "The Ocean's 11 star couldn't be with us to make the case for it himself, so we're joined by a man known to many as the Clooney of British politics, Mark Pack: polling expert, Liberal Democrat member of the House of Lords and Total Nerd."

A House of Dynamite is a movie designed to generate dread, but do we need something else right now, a picture that points to solutions instead? This question is asked in today's episode as Gareth Higgins and Jett Loe discuss the current political situation in the U.S., A House of Dynamite as a lament and wonder what to do if a train is heading towards us at full speed.

A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE is built on an undeniably hooky premise — a nuclear missile originating from an unknown source is heading right for us — but is that premise enough to support a successful movie? We're joined once again by critic and author Jason Bailey to unpack that question, particularly as it applies to the film's triptych structure and nervy ending gambit. That ending comes back into play when we reintroduce 1964's FAIL SAFE for Connections, to see how Sidney Lumet's Cold War thriller compares to Kathryn Bigelow's modern-day nuclear scenario in their respective depictions of human connection — personal, professional, and adversarial —amid humanity-threatening catastrophe. Then we keep it in the nuclear family for Your Next Picture Show, with a recommendation for the 1983 TV movie THE DAY AFTER, as well as some of its pop-cultural fallout. Please share your thoughts about FAIL SAFE, A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Kathryn Bigelow's new A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE games out a scenario that filmmakers have been grappling with since the mid-20th century, in particular the year 1964, which saw the release of two very different classics of the nuclear-catastrophe genre: DR. STRANGELOVE, followed a few months later by the other half of this week's pairing, FAIL SAFE. If the bleak realism of Sidney Lumet's nuclear thriller made it a tougher sell to audiences back then, though, it also makes FAIL SAFE feel like a more fitting companion to Bigelow's film than its satirical predecessor. We're joined this week by critic and author Jason Bailey to discuss why FAIL SAFE still feels so immediately chilling decades removed from its Cold War context, and how Lumet makes a story that plays out mainly in a series of small rooms feel both grand in scope and human in focus. Then, in honor of our second Lumet feature in a row on this show, we turn Feedback over to a discussion of some of the prolific filmmaker's lesser-known works.

On this episode of Word Balloon, I sit down with writer Chip Zdarsky to dig into his bold, current run on Captain America. Chip explains his vision for the Star-Spangled Avenger, including the introduction of a new Cap born in the wake of 9/11, during the years when Steve Rogers was still frozen in ice. We also dive into his celebrated DC work on Batman, where he created the relentless Failsafe, repositioned Vandal Savage as a core Gotham villain, and shook up the city's status quo with a brand-new police commissioner.But that's just the start—Chip and I explore his Marvel catalog as well, from the gritty, character-driven drama of Daredevil to the cosmic and family-centered Marvel Two-In-One with the Thing and the Human Torch. And of course, we talk about his creator-owned stories, where he continues to push boundaries and surprise readers with inventive, personal storytelling.

In this episode, Adrian is joined by Renaud Anjoran to explore fail-safe design principles: essential thinking for anyone developing most kinds of products. Through real-world examples ranging from Tesla doors to Boeing and consumer electronics, they highlight how designers must ask: “If this fails, what happens to the user?” They break down why it matters, what trade-offs exist, and how structured risk analysis, simplification, redundancy, and error-proofing can dramatically reduce hazards and costly failures.   Episode Sections: 00:00:03 – Introduction 00:01:00 – Tesla door handle fail-safe issue 00:02:32 – Building lock systems vs. car safety 00:05:55 – Structured thinking in fail-safe design 00:07:21 – Designing with users in mind 00:09:02 – Risk analysis methods: FMEA & fault tree analysis 00:11:10 – Catastrophic failures & extreme examples 00:12:18 – Everyday product applications 00:14:21 – Principle: Simplification in design 00:16:13 – Redundancy in critical systems 00:20:30 – Battery management & safety logic 00:20:34 – Human error and mistake-proofing 00:23:09 – Error-proofing examples: tables & plugs 00:23:41 – Trade-offs and cost considerations 00:26:03 – Testing, regulations & standards (UL, ETL, etc.) 00:27:11 – Summary & wrap-up 00:28:07 – Final thoughts & listener takeaway 00:28:19 – Outro   Are you designing a new product?

Mutual Doomsday: Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove/Sidney Lumet's Fail Safe  Recording a mere two days before Donald Trump fired on Iran, Mr. Chavez & I sit down to discuss nuclear war and the incredible self-destructiveness of humankind. In 1963 Stanley Kubrick would direct one of his earliest masterpieces. With a ridiculous and hilarious George C. Scott, frighteningly honest Sterling Hayden, and a briliant Peter Sellars in a trio of roles that stands as one of the (three) greatest comic performances in cinema. There is a great deal going on in this film, however much of it's power has been dismissed as mere comedy. Surprisingly, a second film from 63 would provide an even more powerful statement of the danger of nuclear war. Sidney Lumet's film would die in the shadow of Kubrick's great comedy. On this episode Mr. Chavez & I are thrilled to do our part to bring light to this criminally neglected film. Take a lesson and let us know what you think - gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many, Many Thanks.  For those of you who would like to donate to this undying labor of love, you can do so with a contribution at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/watchrickramos - Anything and Everything is appreciated, You Cheap Bastards.

What does a doomsday drama about nuclear annihilation have in common with a breezy adventure set on the Greek isles? Just the year they hit the big screen. We explore why Fail Safe feels eerily prophetic in the age of AI, and whether or not Eli Wallach should have been doing brownface so much (he shouldn't have). It's Sidney Lumet's tense Cold War thriller Fail Safe, starring Henry Fonda and Walter Matthau, and Disney's sun-drenched mystery The Moon-Spinners, directed by James Neilson and featuring Hayley Mills and Eli Wallach.

Send us a textStepping into the spotlight this week is our very own Max Fosberg, fresh from his graduation at Seattle Film Institute. In this deeply personal conversation, Max opens up about the transformative journey of pursuing film education in his mid-thirties—a decision that initially felt "almost silly" but ultimately proved profoundly rewarding.The discussion reveals fascinating insights into the practical realities of student filmmaking, where location often dictates creative direction. "I think the first thing that I figured out for each idea was location," Max shares, explaining how his vampire film "Nightstock" grew from having access to a park, while other projects emerged from available spaces like a brewery. This resourcefulness represents the true spirit of independent filmmaking.Beyond technical skills, Max reflects on how film school reshapes one's relationship with cinema itself. He now studies lighting with particular fascination, noting how flat lighting in CGI-heavy productions often diminishes visual impact compared to the masterful shadow work in classics like Sidney Lumet's "Fail Safe." The conversation explores the vulnerability required when sharing creative work, the collaborative magic of production days, and how acting experiences enhanced his ability to communicate with performers.Perhaps most moving is Max's recognition that the relationships formed during this journey matter most. From his Film Institute cohort to the broader Seattle film community, these connections have become the true measure of success. "It's not about the movies," he reflects. "It's really about the relationships." As Max prepares for new adventures in Los Angeles, his story serves as powerful inspiration for anyone considering their own creative leap—regardless of when in life that call comes.What makes a truly successful filmmaker? Listen as we explore how passion, persistence, and people create the foundation for meaningful work in this challenging industry.Support the show
