Left of the Projector
Evan, Bill, Ward
On Left of the Projector we discuss from film from a leftist perspective. Episodes will feature guests who will offer their thoughts on films from a shared interest in class consciousness and personal experience. While everyone can take something different from a movie, LotP will provide discussion and analysis from an anti-capitalist and Marxist point of view.

Superman (1978) with Collective Action Comics and Legendary Black Lion
Up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no it's three leftists talking about the original Superman movie. Christopher Reeves, for many, is the Superman. This movie built on decades of Superman comics and brought him the man of steel to the big screen. I'm joined by Superman expert Nat (Collectitve Action Comics) and Legendary Black Lion.//Collective Action Comics: IG: // Patreon: // Listen: // Twitter //Legendary Black Lion:Instagram //Left of the Projector Links:Patreon // Podcast Stream Links // Merch Store // YouTube Channel // Instagram // TikTok --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leftoftheprojector/support

The Running Man with Dang We Stole This Podcast
This week on LotP I bring you The Running Man with Arnold Schwarzenegger (he's in the movie, not a guest). A perhaps somewhat forgotten film from the 1980's that depicts a dystopian future where people are forced to compete on a TV Game show while being hunted by stalkers. The movie is loosely based on a novel by Richard Bachman (Stephen King) and takes some liberties to make it into an Arnold classic.

Uncut Gems with Matt Christman (Chapo Trap House) and Commie Trucker
Uncut Gems is a thrilling romp through the mind of Howie (Adam Sandler) and how he manages multiple bets, debts and much more. Take some blood pressure meds and strap in.

The Hobbit Trilogy with a bunch of Tolkeinists
Order is back to the shire. For those that had issue with the ep at 1:09:55, it's fixed!If there ever was any doubt that capitalism has major impacts on movies, this is the ultimate evidence. A wonderful kids book, 250 pagse in length was turned into a trilogy of movies over 8 hours long. There are pointless battles, characters, love triangles and other revisionism.I'm joined by my LOTR companion, Hungry Rye (who you may remember from the LOTR Trilogy of episodes), Mike (turn leftist podcast) and Nick (Intervention podcast) to discuss.The Intervention: //https://www.instagram.com/intervention_pod/ //https://theinterventionpod.buzzsprout.com/ //Turn Leftist: //https://linktr.ee/turnleftist //https://instagram.com/turnleftist //https://twitter.com/turnleftistpod //Hungry Rye: //http://tiktok.com/@hungryRyehttps://instagram.com/hungryRye //Left of the Projector Links:Patreon // Podcast Stream Links // Merch Store // YouTube Channel // Instagram // TikTok --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leftoftheprojector/support

Rollerball (1975 & 2002) with Matt Bors & Ben Clarkson (Justice Warriors Comic, The Nib)
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.

Escape from L.A. with a bunch of comrades
Escape from LA, John Carpenter's sequel to Escape from New York is the only sequel he's directed and despite awful CGI, this campy movie rules. Kurt Russell makes his triumphant return from Cleveland to star in this movie in L.A.

12 Monkeys with Steve (Intervention podcast) and Costume Whimsy
Time loops, the Florida Keys, eco-fascism, and a performance for the ages by Brad Pitt. All of these made for a great discussion. I was joined again by Steve from the Intervention podcast and Costume Whimsy to chat about this 90s film.

Patriot Games (1992)
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
