Dick story "We Can Remember it for You Wholesale". We discuss the film's long gestation period under several different producers and directors, most notably as a project for Hit Factory fave David Cronenberg. Then we go long on the film's startling prescience, it's themes of revolution against the extractive brutalist of an imperialist force, and Verhoeven's metatextual commentary on filmic reality as psycholgical mirror and wish fulfillment fantasy. Elsewhere, we discuss the dire 2012 Len Wiseman remake starring Colin Farrell and how it betrays and insults its audience by stripping away any and all subtext. Check out Matt & Ben's graphin novel, Justice Warriors.Follow Matt Bors on Twitter.Follow Ben Clarkson on Twitter. ....Our theme song is Mirror by Chris Fish.

Phillip K. Dick wrote two incredibly prophetic stories of technophobia with The Minority Report(1956) and We Can Remember it For You Wholesale(1966). It doesn't hurt that they also led to two Sci-Fi classics carried by leading men Arnold Schwarzenegger and Tom Cruise.

"Total Recall" (1990) is more than a sci-fi action movie because its concept melds reality, false memory, and real memory. Directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett, it stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sharon Stone, Michael Ironside, Rachel Ticotin, and Ronny Cox. But did you know its based on the 1966 short story "We Can Remember it for You Wholesale" by Philip K. Dick? Tune in as we discuss some movie trivia, dig into some info about author Philip K. Dick, and discuss the main plot points of the short story. Plus, Arnold Schwarzenegger comes on the show to talk about his childhood. Or does he?Created by Drew HellmichWritten by Drew, Matt, and Bryan HellmichProduced by Drew HellmichMusic by Bryan HellmichEdited by Drew HellmichFollow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/screenplay_junkie/Check out Bryan's music here:https://soundcloud.com/pheelsmusichttps://www.instagram.com/bheat.beats/

It's not too often that we examine a major Hollywood blockbuster on this show, but it's not too often that the studios release something as baffling as TOTAL RECALL, and by that we mean the original 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger–Paul Verhoeven sci-fi schlockfest. Is it all a dream? Did he read Word Up! magazine? Did Quaid ever get his ass to Mars, or is he lobotomized in the chair at Rekall? We may never know for sure, but in this first episode of our ninth season, your hosts Renan and Bill go long to discuss the film's vision of the future, its context in our recent past, Ahnold vs. The Rock, Philip K. Dick's posthumous Hollywood takeover, the long adaptation process and many almost-was versions, and other big-budget mind-benders. Also: prefacing our discussion of the film, a conversation about how the films we watch for this show might reflect on the mind-bending real world we live in.
