Today I sit with good friend Corey "Task" Pruitt about his latest dive into "High" Fantasy Afro Punks. A contrast of Final Fantasy 7 and Battle Chasers, we see Task put together a Horde of different personalities all while utilizing a sense of comedy throughout the book. I ask about his affection in creating teams as with his past book Leaders of the Free world and the melding of having multiple character temperaments to write for as opposed to a singular Protagonist. We speak on each Character in detail- Auxillary, Danny Deadass, MDSA, Genevieve, and Think Tank. We also discuss his repeated trait in sonically using music in his stories and subjects.

When the Devil drops by to convince a regular Joe to "sell his soul," the young man -- familiar with the tired old Faust routine -- suggests a different sort of deal. A Fantasy Comedy (From "The Theater of the Midnight Sun" audio drama podcast. Ad-free) (Includes mild profanity) With a cast of, oh, had to be thousands... Written, directed, and produced by Michael McGee Running Time:  26:32 Music by: Clouseaux Justin Gordon and the wonderful Juggernaut Jug Band    

Barbie is a 2023 Fantasy Comedy directed by Greta Gerwig who has a fantastic acting career and has also directed Little Women and Lady Bird.  Barbie is the story of Barbie, played by Margot Robbie. She's living in Barbie land (Margot is ‘Stereotypical Barbie') with all the other Barbies and of course the Ken's. Mainly played by Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu. Oh, and Allan played by Michael Cera. But something goes wrong with Barbie, somethings not quite right, and after gaining some sage wisdom from another Barbie played by Kate Mackinnon, Barbie realizes she must travel into the real world to find the person playing with her. We also have America Ferrera and Will Ferrell in this film. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the world of the undead, one name reigns supreme and sends a shiver down the spines of all who dare whisper it aloud: Renfield? After 90 years, the Dracula mythology continues to fascinate audiences, and now the cursed manservant of the granddaddy of all vampires is finally getting his due. Putting yet another spin on everyone's favourite bloodsucker, the 2023 movie Renfield focuses on the toxic relationship between a centuries-old vampire and his put-upon right-hand man with a blend of horror, action, and humour all served up by Chris McKay, the visionary director who brought us Lego Batman. Join your intrepid hosts over at the Reel Film Chronicles as we dissect Renfield and the titular character's attempts to exorcise his demons - both literal and metaphorical - amidst a blood-fuelled rampage of undead ghouls, abusive ex-boyfriends, coked-up crime families, corrupt police, and an unhinged Nicholas Cage, in a blend of on-screen insanity that gives Joe Carnahan a run for his money.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- My name is Chris Herron, and I narrate audiobooks. In 2015, poor control of my diabetes left me legally blind for the better part of a year. The doctors predicted an 80% chance I would never see again, but I changed the way I was living and through sheer willpower beat the odds. During this time I couldn't read or write. Two things that I had been turning to for comfort since I was a small child. With the sheer amount of stress I was under, this was devastating. My wife took me by the arm, lead me into the local library, and read out titles of audiobooks to me. I chose the audiobook versions of books I had loved such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more. They brought my favorite stories to life in ways I never thought possible and helped me through the darkest time of my life. Once my vision recovered, I maintained a love for audiobooks. I decided I would turn my focus from being a writer to becoming a narrator. I devised Tall Tale TV as a way to help out all the amazing authors in the writing communities I had come to love before my ordeal. I created Tall Tale TV to help aspiring authors by providing them with a promotional audiobook video. A way to showcase their skills with the written word. They say the strongest form of advertisement is word of mouth, so I provide a video to a platform of readers to help get people talking. Help them spread the word.

Episode five of SKATCAST with Zaq Flanary (the Script Keeper) is ready for your cranial consumption.  If you choose to let us in through your ear-holes, this episode will try to impregnate your mind with things like brain science, classical literature,  sportsmanship and space science.  Or more accurately the Script Keeper will throw a bunch of dick jokes at you while we dredge through the depths of the human experience via four bite sized (and R-rated) radio movies.  Today's Bullshit:Inside My Mind |  This week the scientists record Zaq's thoughts as he interacts with social media.Liam the Monster Hunter |  Liam and his men (and horse) get lost and find themselves in a field of "Frozen Faces."Man Hunt | A new one-time skit (probably) called Man Hunt.  What would it look (sound) like if the most powerful people hunted random poor people for sport and televised it like golf?  That is the essence of this skit.  We're sorry.The Adventures of Gunner Halifax |  Closing out the Droknol Saga (we think), Captain Halifax and his crew of mercenary space assholes are once again faced with a powerful foe in "Revenge of the Droknol."Visit us for more episodes of SKATCAST and other shows like SKATCAST presents The Dave & Angus Show plus BONUS material at https://www.skatcast.com  Watch select shows and shorts on YouTube: bit.ly/34kxCneJoin the conversation on Discord! https://discord.gg/YmDG4gF8agFor all show related questions: info@skatcast.comPlease rate and subscribe on iTunes and elsewhere and follow SKATCAST on social media!!Instagram: @theescriptkeeperFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/scriptkeepersATWanna become a Patron?  Click here: https://www.patreon.com/SkatcastSign up through Patreon and you'll get Exclusive Content, Behind The Scenes video, special downloads and more! Prefer to make a donation instead?

SKATCAST is like old-timey radio theater but with curse words, violence and the mind of the Script Keeper Zaq Flanary behind it. This week on the fourth edition of SKATCAST we continue our scientific endeavors to record the inner voices of the Script Keeper's dumb mind.  We're all embarrassed for him.  Then we move along to another installment of Liam the Monster Hunter, the hero Middle-Narnia-land neither deserves nor wants.  Then to end the show, SKATCAST presents another episode of the Adventures of Gunner Halifax.  This clusterf*ck continues the story line (sort of) of the last three weeks and is called "Pirate Moon."   Visit us for more episodes of SKATCAST and other shows like SKATCAST presents The Dave & Angus Show plus BONUS material at https://www.skatcast.com  Watch select shows and shorts on YouTube: bit.ly/34kxCneJoin the conversation on discord.gg/YmDG4gF8agFor all show related questions: info@skatcast.comPlease rate and subscribe on iTunes and elsewhere and follow SKATCAST on social media!!Instagram: @theescriptkeeperFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/scriptkeepersATWanna become a Patron?  Click here: www.patreon.com/SkatcastSign up through Patreon and you'll get Exclusive Content, Behind The Scenes video, special downloads and more! Prefer to make a donation instead?

This week on episode three of SKATCAST, the Scriptkeeper Zaq Flanary has concocted four bits of horseshit he thinks people might want to allow into their ears.  We're not sure why either.  This show is essentially the voices in Zaq's head run amok set to music and sound effects.   We start the show once again with a sciency segment called "Inside My Mind" where this week Zaq is petting his dog.  It's riveting!  Then we take off into a bit from Zaq's sketchy past.  Did you know Zaq wrote and voiced cartoons for Henry Kissinger's short lived children's program called "Kissinger's Kids"?  It sucked!  Then we'll really get stupid and introduce our newest mini-series...Liam the Monster Hunter.  It's even dumber than it sounds!  Then to close it off, we head to space to check in with the worst alien in the known Universe in another installment of "The Adventures of Gunner Halifax".  For more episodes of SKATCAST and more stupid sh*t that Zaq has made like THE DAVE & ANGUS SHOW, visit SKATCAST.com.No voice actors were harmed in the making of SKATCAST.  ------------------------------Visit us for more episodes of SKATCAST and other shows like SKATCAST presents The Dave & Angus Show plus BONUS material at https://www.skatcast.com  Watch select shows and shorts on YouTube: bit.ly/34kxCneJoin the conversation on Discord! https://discord.gg/YmDG4gF8agFor all show related questions: info@skatcast.comPlease rate and subscribe on iTunes and elsewhere and follow SKATCAST on social media!!Instagram: @theescriptkeeperFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/scriptkeepersATWanna become a Patron?  Click here: https://www.patreon.com/SkatcastSign up through Patreon and you'll get Exclusive Content, Behind The Scenes video, special downloads and more! 

'Und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier' - Die Eskapisten Denny Connors, (Mrs.) Melanie Leincester und Daniel Ryerson besuchen den großen Murmeltiertag in Punxsutawney, Pennlvania und erleben beim Kult-Klassiker "Groundhog Day" von Harold Ramis (und Danny Rubin) mit einem fabelhaft ambivalent aufspielenden Bill Murray ein und denselben Tag (samt Podcast-Aufnahme) immer und immer wieder. Die drei Realitätsflüchtigen stellen sich dabei nicht nur jeden Morgen den Radiowecker auf 6:00 Uhr, um "I got you Babe" von Sonny & Cher nicht zu verpassen, sondern graben sich tief in die Entstehungsgeschichte der Fantasy-Comedy ein, decken bisher unbekannte Skandale hinter den Kulissen und beim Dreh in Ersatz-Punxsutawney a.k.a. Woodstock, Illinois auf und geben detaillierte Insights, warum Bill Murray nach diesem Film über lange Jahre kein Wort mehr mit seinem einstigen Freund und "Und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier"-Regisseurs Harold Ramis mehr geredet hat. Natürlich nehmen wir auch wieder alle relevanten Schauspieler*innen unter die Lupe, diskutieren Timeloop-Filme im Allgemeinen und die physikalische Logik hinter der Zeitschleife in 'Groundhog Day' im Speziellen, klären nach all den Jahren endlich die konkrete Ursache für den Timeloop im Film und - ach, es ist so viel und so geil geworden, hört's euch einfach an gä! Bei unserem rund 4,5-stündigen Aufenthalt am Gobbler's Knob kommt uns Außenreporter Crazy Dave sehr gelegen, der direkt vor Ort noch einige Stimmen zum Kultfilm bei den Anwohner*innen einfängt - vielen lieben Dank auch hier wieder dafür gä! Natürlich hamma auch wieder "Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst" aufm Beifahrersitz unseres Übertragungswagens: Denny hat den Pixar-Film "Luca" mit dabei, Melanie und Daniel sprechen vor allem spoilerfrei über "Spider-Man: No Way Home", "Arcane" und noch irgendwas anneres, an das ich mich gerade leider wieder net erinnern kann und zu faul bin, die Datei nochmal anzuhören - wobei ich des auch in der Zeit, in der ich das hier so ausführlich schreib, hätt mache könne - habter ja recht gä. Aber genuch der vielen Vorworte: Wenn ihr wisse wollt, warum Denny so schlecht auf Versicherungsvertreter wie Ned Ryerson zu sprechen is, warum Melanie keine Geschichten über Golfbälle mehr hören kann und warum für Daniel mittlerweile der Weg das Ziel ist, dann klatsch euch unser neuestes Audio-Feuerwerk in die Gehörgäng! 00:00 Intro 00:38 Begrüßung und Quatschgesabbel 06:47 Organisatorisches 11:13 Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst 25:50 Und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier (Groundhog Day) 64:20 Außenreporter Crazy Dave am Gobbler's Knob 114:28 Eskapisten-Geballer 267:53 Abmoderation und Tschüüüüß "Hast du schon was vor? - Ja, was anderes." - Phil Connors Eure Eskapist*innen Melanie, Denny & Daniel (und Markus, Lukas und Sascha im Geiste) Checkt Saschas "Radio Beutelsend: https://radiobeutelsend.podcaster.de/ Checkt Crazy Daves "TubeYou": https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuaS0jYcEjbTtk2kaDRvmbA Checkt Spectral Radio: https://spectralradio.podigee.io/ Wir freuen uns natürlich riesig über Feedback, Kritik und Anregungen auf https://www.facebook.com/dieEskapisten/ und bei Instagram jasonpvnk/DieEskapisten !

Rusty is coming back to Doctor Who. No, not that one. It's Russell T Davies, back to regenerate the greatest show on TV with his old production team. It remains to be seen whether he can recapture the magic, but the BBC must be desperate. Gaming PCs are incredibly rare, and they're likely to get even rarer. This means people will pay a massive premium, and that entry level parts don't really exist anymore. This makes us sad. Everyone should have the opportunity to build a PC and learn about electronics. Maybe in the post apocalyptic future there will be enough supply to meet demand. An Aussie team has created a significantly cheaper and easier to make solar panel that outperforms traditional panels. The sunniest place on Earth could really use some of those. They still need to scale up, but it's great to see Aussie scientists making huge strides.

While many gamers might not know McGinty by name, those that grew up in the '90s will immediately recognize his art. The artist contributed some of the most iconic images in all of gaming, telling stories that immediately captivated players. McGinty was an immensely talented artist, as is evidenced by the impressive collection of work on his personal site, but for gamers of the '90s, his output will be almost synonymous with video game covers. He is perhaps most famous with Nintendo fans for creating the western cover artwork for the SNES version of Street Fighter II. While many people took issue with the 'westernisation' of the artwork at the time, it was very common practice for companies like Nintendo to commission entirely new artwork which was better suited to a particular region. McGinty's cover – which features Chun-Li fighting Blanka over the prone body of Ryu – has gone down as one of the most recognisable video game covers of all time. McGinty's association with Street Fighter would continue with Street Fighter II: Champion Edition on the Mega Drive / Genesis, Street Fighter II Turbo on the SNES and Super Street Fighter II.21st September 2021 – Endangered South African penguins killed by swarm of bees near Cape Town - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-58622482Sixty-three endangered African penguins have been killed by a swarm of bees in a rare occurrence near Cape Town, bird conservationists in South Africa say. The protected birds, from a colony in Simonstown, were found on the shore with multiple bee-stings. They had no other physical injuries. National parks officials told the BBC this was the first known attack at the world-famous Boulders Beach, which attracts up to 60,000 visitors a year. "Usually the penguins and bees co-exist," said Dr Alison Kock, a marine biologist with South Africa's national parks agency (SANParks). "The bees don't sting unless provoked - we are working on the assumption that a nest or hive in the area was disturbed and caused a mass of bees to flee the nest, swarm and became aggressive," she added. "Unfortunately the bees encountered a group of penguins on their flight path." Post-mortems found that the birds had been stung around the eyes and on their flippers. That is because "those are the parts that are not covered by feathers," Dr Katta Ludynia, from the Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (Sanccob), told the BBC. Penguins have pink sweat glands around their eyes and "that area is particularly thin - similar to human fingers," explained Shanet Rutgers, senior penguin keeper at Cape Town's Two Oceans Aquarium. One of the penguins had been stung 27 times. African penguins are distinctive for their small size, and live on the coast and islands of South Africa and Namibia - though some have been spotted as far north as Gabon.Their populations are rapidly declining, the International Union for Conservation of Nature says. The national body said in a statement on Sunday that it was still conducting toxicity and disease checks on the birds, and would continue to monitor the situation.22nd September 2021 – 10th Anniversary of Dark Souls - https://www.glitched.online/landmark-rpg-dark-souls-celebrates-its-10th-anniversary-today/ Ten years ago to the day, Japanese video game developer From Software released the critically acclaimed dark fantasy action RPG, Dark Souls, which would go on to change the gaming landscape forever. Refining the formula already established in Demon's Souls while introducing a bevy of new mechanics that have been adopted and replicated by other titles, Dark Souls would spearhead an entirely new sub-genre of gaming. Today, Dark Souls officially celebrates its 10th anniversary. Dark Souls‘ history is relatively straightforward in comparison to many other success stories in gaming. From Software first dabbled in the dark fantasy setting with Demon's Souls, showcasing their ability to tell epic but narratively mysterious tales featuring fantastical beasts, ambiguous NPCs and deceptively challenging gameplay. The last part has remained the foundation of all From Software games since, increasing their difficulty in newer titles like Bloodborne and Sekiro while still retaining their creative power for captivating and immersive stories, worlds and characters. Dark Souls was well-received by fans, often cited as their favourite game of all time. It's success went on to spawn two sequels, Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III; two creative spiritual successors in Bloodborne and the upcoming Elden Ring; and a Tenchu-styled action title Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice that heavily borrowed elements from From Software's trademark style. Demon's Souls may have been the first, but it was really Dark Souls that put the Japanese studio on the map, leaving behind a legacy that has been the source of inspiration for a number of games like the Nioh series, The Surge, Lords of the Fallen, Mortal Shell, and numerous others. Dark Souls is not only remembered for its staple difficulty, but inspired world design, creative boss encounters, a plot that simply begged to be dissected and explored further, and a blueprint for a new style of game that bounced off the success of this defining RPG.24th September 2021 – 20th anniversary of Ico - https://www.nme.com/en_au/features/gaming-features/ico-minimalist-masterclass-in-cinematic-and-emotional-storytelling-3051674 Released between those two films in 2001 and 2002, Ico (pronounced ‘ee-ko' – but don't worry if you get it wrong, I did so too for a very long time) is a single-player action-adventure game developed by Sony's Japan Studio. This game kicked off the career of Fumito Ueda. It was the first in a series of games that featured similar themes, including beloved titles like Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian. Ico is special in the way it handles abandonment and isolation. Devoid almost entirely of all dialogue, Ico essentially works like a silent film. There's a clear sense of loneliness that's present throughout the entire game. But there's also a feeling of hope. Ico's soundtrack is almost suffocating at times, though it also presents a number of beautiful pieces. “Heal,” for example, is one of the best save themes in any game. Ico's soundtrack is almost suffocating at times, though it also presents a number of beautiful pieces. “Heal,” for example, is one of the best save themes in any game. One of the game's fans is also Hidetaka Miyazaki of FROM Software. Miyazaki, the creator of Demon's Souls, and in turn the Souls series, is one of the biggest game industry figures of the last decade. Much in the way the game would inspire Straley and Druckmann, Miyazaki cites Ico as a game that showed him the different possibilities that video games as a medium had to offer.Remembrances21st September 1954 – Mikimoto Kōkichi - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikimoto_K%C5%8DkichiA Japanese entrepreneur who is credited with creating the first cultured pearl and subsequently starting the cultured pearl industry with the establishment of his luxury pearl company Mikimoto. He was inducted into the house of peers by imperial decree and posthumously awarded the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Sacred Treasure. On April 18, 1985, the Japan Patent Office selected him as one of Ten Japanese Great Inventors. The company was ranked as one of the world's most luxurious brands by Women's Wear Daily Magazine and Mikimoto was considered one of the best Japanese financial leaders of the 20th century by Nihon Keizai Shimbun. He is also known as the founder of Mikimoto Pharmaceuticals, a company specialising in beauty products containing pearl calcium. Mikimoto Pearl Island is named after him. In addition, the "Phoenix Mikimoto Crown" used by Miss Universe winners as well as the pageant crown used by Miss International is credited to his patented work. Mikimoto began his search of an alternative method to produce pearls as the chairman of the Shima Marine Products Improvement Association. At this point the demand for pearls had severely outweighed the supply, prompting the consideration of an effort to protect the oysters. In 1888, Mikimoto obtained a loan to start his first pearl oyster farm at the Shinmei inlet on Ago Bay in Mie prefecture with his wife and partner Ume. On 11 July 1893, after many failures and near bankruptcy, he was able to create the hemispherical cultured pearls. The pearls were made by seeding the oyster with a small amount of mother of pearl. In 1927, Mikimoto met with inventor, Thomas Edison, who was in awe of Mikimoto's cultured pearls as it was "supposed to be biologically impossible". He died at the age of 96 in Japan.Famous Birthdays21st September 1902 – Allen Lane - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_LaneA British publisher who together with his brothers Richard and John Lane founded Penguin Books in 1935, bringing high-quality paperback fiction and non-fiction to the mass market. In 1967 he started a hardback imprint under his own name, Allen Lane. He rose quickly at Bodley Head, becoming managing editor in 1925 following the death of his uncle. After conflict with the board of directors who were wary at first—for fear of being prosecuted—of publishing James Joyce's controversial book Ulysses, Lane, together with his brothers Richard and John, founded Penguin Books in 1935 as part of the Bodley Head. Penguin Books became a separate company the following year. The legend goes that on a train journey back from visiting Agatha Christie in 1934, Lane found himself on an Exeter station platform with nothing available worth reading. He conceived of paperback editions of literature of proven quality which would be cheap enough to be sold from a vending machine; the first was set up outside Henderson's in Charing Cross Road and dubbed the "Penguincubator". Lane was also well aware of the Hamburg publisher Albatross Books and adopted many of its innovations. Most booksellers and authors were against the idea of paperbacks. They believed that paperbacks would result in individuals spending less money on books. Lane was a person that was very stubborn when it came to his company. He operated mainly on intuition and imagination. "He thrived in an atmosphere of crisis and came most fully alive under the challenge of great dilemmas." He was a creative genius that once he had an idea he would not stop until it came to fruition. Once he decided on creating paperbacks he set about in deciding what the books should look like and finding a name. He had decided that the books would be reprints so he also needed to approach other publishers to see if they and their authors would be willing to sublease the rights of the books. He was quoted as saying, "I have never been able to understand why cheap books should not also be well designed, for good design is no more expensive than bad." He was born in Bristol.Events of Interest21th September 2003 – The Galileo spacecraft is terminated by sending it into Jupiter's atmosphere. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_project#End_of_mission_and_deorbit When the exploration of Mars was being considered in the early 1960s, Carl Sagan and Sidney Coleman produced a paper concerning contamination of the red planet. In order that scientists could determine whether or not native life forms existed before the planet became contaminated by micro-organisms from Earth, they proposed that space missions should aim at a 99.9 percent chance that contamination should not occur. This figure was adopted by the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) of the International Council of Scientific Unions in 1964, and was subsequently applied to all planetary probes. The danger was highlighted in 1969 when the Apollo 12 astronauts returned components of the Surveyor 3 spacecraft that had landed on the Moon three years before, and it was found that microbes were still viable even after three years in that harsh climate. An alternative was the Prime Directive, a philosophy of non-interference with alien life forms enunciated by the original Star Trek television series that prioritized the interests of the life forms over those of scientists. Given the (admittedly slim) prospect of life on Europa, scientists Richard Greenberg and Randall Tufts proposed that a new standard be set of no greater chance of contamination that that which might occur naturally by meteorites. Galileo had not been sterilized prior to launch and could have carried bacteria from Earth. Therefore, a plan was formulated to send the probe directly into Jupiter, in an intentional crash to eliminate the possibility of an impact with Jupiter's moons, particularly Europa, and prevent a forward contamination. On April 14, 2003, Galileo reached its greatest orbital distance from Jupiter for the entire mission since orbital insertion, 26 million km (16 million mi), before plunging back towards the gas giant for its final impact. At the completion of J35, its final orbit around the Jovian system, Galileo impacted Jupiter in darkness just south of the equator on September 21, 2003, at 18:57 UTC. Its impact speed was approximately 48.26 km/s (29.99 mi/s).21st September 1994 – Dinosaur Island premiered in Japan - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109627/ On this day in 1994 in Japan, Dinosaur Island enjoyed its premiere on home video. The Fantasy/Comedy feature starred Griffin Drew and Michelle Bauer, and here's the premise: "An army captain is flying three misfit deserters home for a court martial when the plane has engine trouble and they must land on an uncharted island. There they find a primitive society of cave women who routinely sacrifice virgins to appease The Great One, the top dog dinosaur on the the island. Mistaken for gods, the men must destroy The Great One or face death, but meanwhile they fall in love."The cavewomen's ranch was constructed on a remote portion of David Carradine's ranch.Shot in 12 days.Almost every day was extremely hot during the shooting of this film except one.A sequence with a stop-motion animation dinosaur attacking people on the beach was changed to a hand puppet dinosaur in post-production.The filmmakers paid an additional four thousand dollars for the poster art used to advertise this film.Antonia Dorian said she was nervous filming her first love scene in this film, especially since she was going to be topless. She'd danced topless in Vegas shows and in videos, but that wasn't the same as being on a small set surrounded by male actors and crew just a few feet away, all staring at her. Jim Wynorski gave her wine to calm her nerves. He also limited how many people would be on set. That and the wine helped her finally get through the scene.When the female warriors are chasing the dinosaur towards the ocean, you can see Malibu homes in the background hills.Wynorski said that Roger Corman asked he and Fred Olen Ray to make the film after Jurassic Park came out. "It wasn't so much a Jurassic Park rip off as a cavewoman movie", Wynorski said.Wynorski and Ray said they rewrote the script entirely. They knew who they were going to cast, employing actors they had worked with before, and tailored the script accordingly. They based the characters of the soldiers on characters in Stripes. Another influence was The War that Time Forgot, part of the Star Spangled War Stories comic book series.The movie was shot at Vasquez Rocks and David Carradine's ranch at Sun Valley over ten days. Wynorski says he and Ray made it "on a wing and a prayer".Wynorski later said, "I'd never co-directed a movie before, but it was smooth sailing all the way. When one of us got tired, the other would take over. I'd usually go back to the comfort of the air-conditioned motor home and hang out with the girls. You really can't beat that."Wynorski says he was at a party when he met Joe Pesci who told him he loved the film, saying "everytime I watch it I feel like I want to go there."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/id1347661094Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/Email - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comSupport via Podhero- https://podhero.com/podcast/449127/nerds-amalgamated See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
