Rollerball is a forgotten classic of the 1970s. The 2002 remake of Rollerball should simply be forgotten. The former is a classic dystopian film that delves into so much more than a made up sport. Matt Bors and Ben Clarkson, authors of the comic Justice Warriors join me to discuss both movies and dystopian film.

It's July 4th, so this week we bring you a movie the CIA fighting the IRA (or a faction of it). This 90's Tom Clancy classic is one of those movies that was a product of its time. Clancy's character Jack Ryan has spawned countless movies and a TV Show. If you're anything like me...you were rooting for the IRA and against the CIA.Commie Trucker: ⁠https://twitter.com/commie_truckerLeft of the Projector Linkshttps://www.patreon.com/LeftoftheProjectorPodhttps://boxd.it/5T9O1https://leftoftheprojector.comhttps://instagram.com/leftoftheprojectorpodhttp://tiktok.com/@leftoftheprojectorpodhttps://www.threads.net/@leftoftheprojectorpod

Exploring the challenges of adapting Dune to film, the themes of imperialism and environmentalism, the intricate narrative style, and the clash between greed and cultural exploitation on Arrakis. Delving into the testing and breeding plans, the escape to the desert, encounters with the Fremen, and the adaptation challenges faced in portraying the dense plot progression.

The Hunger Games trilogy made over a billion dollars and is often seen as a work of revolution in a dystopian future. What if the movie wasn't so revolutionary afterall? What if they entire thing was a counter revolution or a bourgeoisie revolution? I dive in with friends of the show Hungry Rye and Donttagrob. The episode includes book differences and discussion of all 4 films.

John Carpenter's The Thing stands the test of time as one of the greatest horror movies of all-time.

Saved! is one of those early 2000's films that kind of flew under the radar. The movie stars Jena Malone, Mandy Moore & Macaulay Culkin as a parody of what it's like to be in a Christian community and high school. The premise being Malone become pregnant and all of the drama that ensues. I am joined by friend of the show Smirk Gently as well as James Doonquah (Legion of Doom on socials).
