That's a mouthful! Today, Secret Movie Club programmer talks about the wonders and possibilities of the fantasy, sci-fi, and horror genres and how those wonders/possibilities are beautifully realized in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy. To narrow it down, Craig explores 1939's The Wizard of Oz (fantasy), 1972's Solaris (sci-fi), and 1974's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Then Craig takes an element from each genre and how it affected or was expressed through Peter Jackson's genius in LOTR. This podcast was a lot to bite off and chew so Craig decided to focus in on three movies.

Subscriber-only episodeSend us a textEp 572: In Scarlet's House, Chapter 5, SCARLET, Dark Fantasy Erotica, A Dark Fantasy Fiction Series. Written by Ruan Willow, Narrated by Ruan Willow and David MyersStory Blurb:Scarlet had become a powerful witch. She also had beauty and brains, but what she was missing was a grand house and some wealth to her name, so she sought George. He blubbered his way through their marriage until he was as annoying as a bug, or an overripe houseguest. That didn't take long. She had plans for him though, big plans.  When Scarlet invited Arianna, her secret love, over to her new husband George's mansion, the girl's night she had promised turned out to be quite decadent indeed. It was complete with a much-needed reconnection for the women, a barely clothed muscle clad chef to ogle, and enough servants, with the promise of extra benefits, to satiate even Cleopatra.  But it turns out having everything doesn't sit well with a dominant witch, until she's truly satisfied with everyone where she wants them.  Tropes: Femdom dark fantasy & sci fi, dark romance, forced proximity, shrinking and growing woman, magic, HEA, humiliation, degradation, explicit scenes and language, LGTBQ, elements of horror.Stay tuned for more of Mallory and Derek's story, and the next installment of "In Scarlet's House" as well!Subscription Process:Join now for access to all the padlocked episodes!

Based on recent trends, we can anticipate several hundred thousand new fiction novels will be published in 2025, in the United States alone, accounting for both traditional and self-published works. But how many of these will be MUST-READ novels? That's going to widely depend on your genre preferences, your preferred authors, and your taste for trying things that are fresh and new. For me? Of everything in fantasy and science fiction I reasonably expect to see in 2025, there are few that I've got my eyes on, books that will definitely hit the TBR. I'm revealing them here.

EARLY ADOPTER, 15min., USA Directed by Matt Szymanowski After a tech junkie's addictive research into a new technology that probes the deepest realms of consciousness nearly kills her, her partner decides to do something drastic to prove just how fragile their relationship and life really is. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12937582/ https://www.instagram.com/mattszy Get to know the filmmaker: I was inspired by the question about whether the great answers of the universe are either outside of us or within us. Most often people look outside, and their pursuits are even noble and true. And looking outside leads to great discoveries. But paradoxically these discoveries could be external manifestations of the knowledge and wisdom that is also in us. And I wanted to convey this idea in two people who stand on opposite sides of the matter, and these two people are also lovers and partners, and they accept each other regardless of there differences, however difficult it is.

He's best known for his work on 2000 AD (home of Judge Dredd), Star Wars, and for legendary horror director John Carpenter. He's one of those really annoyingly talented people, with an eye for story and an ear for dialogue. You know the ones. He's also a dead nice bloke.

Total Recall stands apart from our other 90's action films in this Four Play cycle through its cutting satire, intriguing themes on the nature of reality, and genuine intelligence. Paul Verhoeven's 1990 science-fiction banger was frequently misinterpreted upon its release but has aged beautifully in spite of the gratuitous violence and cheesy acting by Arnold Schwarzenegger. The film toys with its main character's reality through his memory implants and leaves interpretation to the audience as to whether the film's plot happened on Mars or in Quaid's head. Total Recall injects gratuitous violence and action as a send-up of American cinema while raising intriguing questions on the manipulations of mass media and authoritarianism.

In this thrilling episode of Wize_N_Nerdy, we embark on an adventure filled with fantasy, sci-fi, and humor! We kick things off with our beloved "Question of the Week," asking our audience about their favorite iconic fantasy and sci-fi weapons. Joe and Charles bring their unique perspectives, leading to an entertaining discussion where Charles hilariously stumbles on the name of his deep-cut favorite. The Dice of Fate, as mischievous as ever, roll the dice and set the tone for the episode with "Daddy Tell me a story." Charles spills the beans about his exciting new studio, sharing his creative journey with the listeners.  As the dice continue to dictate, we delve into "Let Daddy Decide," where we engage in a friendly debate about sick days and the hilarity of malicious compliance. Laughter ensues as we share anecdotes and opinions on these quirky topics. A well-deserved break arrives with our lively "Commercial Dance Break," allowing our listeners to stretch their legs and minds before we roll the dice once more. This time, it's all about "Bad Dad Jokes" — brace yourselves for some cringeworthy humor that'll make you groan and laugh simultaneously. Thankfully, Joe rescues us from the dad joke torment, uplifting spirits with the segment "What are you Nerding out about?" We take a wild ride through various exciting topics, from Demon Slayer and Temu to Audit the Audit and Driver Defense Team, exploring the vast realms of entertainment and knowledge. However, fate has one last twist in store for us: "Can you dig it: Sarcastic humor?" The dice bestow upon us the challenge of weaving sarcastic humor into the mix, and although it's not what Charles anticipated, the result is a delightful surprise, delivering laughter and wit. Finally, we conclude the episode with our signature tagline: "They may not be your father, but they will always be your daddies!" A heartwarming reminder of the unique bond we share with our listeners. Join us for this incredible journey as we celebrate all things fantasy, sci-fi, and laughter on Wize_N_Nerdy podcast.

Fantasy/Sci-Fi Author Talks Third Book In Series#scifi #fantasy #author #books #bookseries #warminster #jvhilliardDiscussing pop culture and the new book in the Warminster seriesBorn of steel, fire and black wind, J.V. Hilliard was raised as a highlander in the foothills of a once-great mountain chain on the confluence of the three mighty rivers that forged his realm's wealth and power for generations.His father, a peasant twerg, toiled away in industries of honest labor and instilled in him a work ethic that would shape his destiny. His mother, a local healer, cared for his elders and his warrior uncle, who helped to raise him during his formative years. His genius brother, whose wizardly prowess allowed him to master the art of the abacus and his own quill, trained with him for battles on fields of green and sheets of ice.Hilliard's earliest education took place in his warrior uncle's tower, where he learned his first words. HIs uncle helped him to learn the basics of life—and, most importantly, creative writing.Hilliard's training and education readied him to lift a quill that would scribe the tale of the realm of Warminster, filled with brave knights, harrowing adventure and legendary struggles. He lives in the city of silver cups, hypocycloids and golden triangles with his wife, a ranger of the diamond. They built their castle not far into the countryside, guarded by his own two horsehounds, Thor and MacLeod, and resides there to this day.Website: https://www.jvhilliard.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jvhilliardbooks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JVHilliardBooksTwitter: https://twitter.com/JVHilliardBooksGoodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/jvhilliardcomVimeo: https://vimeo.com/jvhilliardThanks for tuning in, please be sure to click that subscribe button and give this a thumbs up!!Email: thevibesbroadcast@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/listen_to_the_vibes_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thevibesbroadcastnetworkLinktree: https://linktr.ee/the_vibes_broadcastTikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMeuTVRv2/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheVibesBrdcstTruth: https://truthsocial.com/@KoyoteAnd Now!!!
