Movie of the Year: 1996Mars Attacks! (feat. Paul from Waiting For Doom!)In this episode of the Movie of the Year podcast, the hosts dissect Mars Attacks!, Tim Burton's star-studded, darkly comedic, and satirical take on alien invasion movies. Released in 1996, Mars Attacks! blends sci-fi with Burton's unique quirky style, creating a cult classic filled with humor, horror, and biting social commentary. This deep dive covers everything from Burton's vision to the film's eccentric ensemble cast and the cynical undertones driving the plot.Tim Burton's Unique Vision for Mars Attacks!One of the key points discussed in this Movie of the Year episode is Tim Burton's distinct creative style and how it shapes Mars Attacks!. Known for his darkly whimsical films, such as Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice, Burton was at the peak of his career in the 90s. Mars Attacks! fits squarely into his love for campy, exaggerated B-movies, while offering a modern take on the classic alien invasion genre.The hosts examine how Burton's practical effects and early CGI create an otherworldly yet campy aesthetic. The exaggerated character designs of the Martians, along with their chaotic behavior, reflect Burton's signature blend of the grotesque and the humorous. His direction adds layers to what could have been a simple homage to 1950s sci-fi, transforming it into something both original and absurdly chaotic.The Star-Studded Ensemble Cast of Mars Attacks!The podcast explores the impressive ensemble cast of Mars Attacks!, which includes big names like Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan, and a young Natalie Portman. Each actor embraces the film's bizarre and comedic tone, with Nicholson standing out in dual roles as the U.S. President and a sleazy Las Vegas developer.The Movie of the Year hosts analyzes how Burton uses this all-star cast to subvert genre conventions, frequently dispatching major characters in surprisingly brutal ways. This decision to “kill off” so many stars adds to the film's unpredictable, chaotic nature. The ensemble cast also highlights the sheer scale of the film, with each actor bringing their unique energy to the outrageous situations they find themselves in—whether it's running from Martian lasers or trying to reason with the alien invaders.Exploring the Cynicism in Mars Attacks!Beyond its absurd humor and visual chaos, Mars Attacks! is filled with a biting cynicism about American politics and culture. The podcast delves into how Burton uses the film's comedic violence and caricatured characters to comment on human arrogance, particularly the overconfidence of government officials, military leaders, and scientists. Despite their resources and plans, humanity is powerless against the relentless, nonsensical violence of the Martians.This layer of cynicism gives Mars Attacks! its satirical edge, mocking the ineptitude of leadership and blind nationalism. The Movie of the Year hosts discuss how Burton's portrayal of politicians and military figures, who are often more concerned with appearances than solutions, resonates with modern audiences. The film becomes not only an homage to sci-fi but also a darkly humorous critique of societal institutions, offering relevant commentary on government incompetence and human folly.Guest Star Spotlight: Paul from Waiting for DoomA special treat for this episode is the appearance of Paul, co-host of the Waiting for Doom podcast, which is dedicated to all things Doom Patrol and comic book culture. Paul brings a wealth of knowledge about pop culture and superhero media, making his contributions to the discussion of Mars Attacks!...

Suspiciously Unsolid Wall Hello, and welcome to episode 197 of The Fantasticast. Each week, Steve Lacey and Andy Leyland guide you through every issue, guest-appearance and cameo of The Fantastic Four. In an unusual move, we're throwing our regular titles to the side, and spending this week in the weird world of Marvel's premier non-team, The Defenders. Issue 20 brings to a conclusion the plot line involving the harmonica, the Valkyrie and Destiny that has been running through the last two issues of Marvel Two-in-One, and because The Thing is along for the ride, we are too. Guided by the hands of Steve Gerber, Sal Buscema and Vince Coletta, we follow The Thing, Valkyrie, Doctor Strange and Nighthawk into the town of Cobbler's Roost, where great old ones are waiting to burst into our dimension, trapdoors are waiting to be sprung, harmonicas are waiting to be blown, husbands are waiting to be revealed, and plots are waiting to be wrapped up. Not all of these things actually happen in this book... You can find Andy's recent appearance on 90s Comics Retrial here, Steve's recent appearance on Waiting For Doom here, and we'll both be appearing on Views From The Longbox very soon.
