Remember how good The Matrix was? Well, this isn't as good despite grabbing a lot of the same movie ideas. Even so...there are lots of liberal minded themes to discuss here.

Chris Wade from Chapo Trap House and Commie Trucker dive into the intricacies of Dune: Part 2. They discuss the challenges and successes of the adaptation, explore unexplained mysteries in futuristic narratives, analyze iconic sci-fi movies, and share insights on recent sci-fi readings and adaptations.

Rebroadcast in anticipation of Dune: Part 2 coming April 4, 2024 Frank Herbert's Dune series has long been considered an impossible series to bring to film. We saw David Lynch try and fail, but in 2021, Denis Villeneuve accomplished the unthinkable. Dune Part One, the first half of the first novel, is a stunning film that really does an excellent job bringing the story to life. I'm joined again by Commie Trucker, co-host of the ⁠Left without Borders podcast⁠, to discuss how it does the book justice, the themes embedded in the movie and why it's so beloved among the right wing.

This week I'm joined by Thomas (Leftist Squidward on TikTok) to discuss a film with a historical perspective: Oliver Stone's Salvador. The film went mostly unnoticed at the time and even since has little resurgence. There is however, a lot to going on in the 1979-1980 period in El Salvador and we delve into the film as well as the history.
