S3 Ep2 "Game Over Man, Game Over!" Aliens
Daniel, Ben and Tanya discuss the seminal Sci-Fi horror Classic “Aliens” 1986, Directed by James Cameron. This successful sequel film followed the lone survivor of the Nostromo Ripley, played by the extremely talented Sigourney Weaver.
The gang talk about how the ensemble crew lead to a palatable storyline and the dramatic tension was ramped to extreme levels by the story pacing, ambience, and uniqueness of the aliens themselves.
Join us as we take a drop ship into Hadley’s Hope to find out what happened to the settlers on LV-426 but you’d better hang on “were in for some chop”. It could get rough but if we can survive it, we’ll be “in the pipe, five by five.”

"O Face Space" and the Adventure of the Swingline Stapler
Daniel, Ben and Tanya clock in to review the 1999 box office flop yet CULT cable/video hit classic Office Space written and directed by Mick Judge (Beavis and Butthead, Idiocracy).
Their Guest Hosts join them from the Australian based Yum Yum Podcast (YumYum5, YumYumTrek), a show where Daniel and Tanya preciously guested to discuss Babylon 5. Rachel and Ryan bring their unique insights to the office desk and discuss the parallels of American and Australian corporate realities, how Office Space's corporate ennui metaphorically works for any job you hate. They also talk about their favorite characters, quotes, moments, elements of the film that didn't resonate with them and the virtues of the American Dining experience.
Will Rachel and Ryan be able to express themselves? Show off their flair and break free from a black & white rating system of their own design?
Don your thirty-seven pieces of flair ... fifteen is the minimum ... grab your coffee cup, and get ready for a consultant to grill you to find out just what it is that you DO at your job.
okay? ... yeah ...

Customer Reviews
The Chameleons of Movie Analysis Podcasting
Tanya, Ben and Daniel offer great discussion of movies and have a laid back vibe that makes you feel as if you’re hanging out with old friends.
Daniel is the consummate moderator. He get things going in the right direction with themes, tidbits about a movie to look for and the occasional unpredictable wit to keep his cohosts on their feet.
All three have unique insights and have amazing conversation chemistry which keeps the listener engaged.
Loved their “top 5 teen movies” podcast!!!
They got three of mine:
Breakfast Club, Rebel Without a Cause and Pretty in Pink, but didn’t get “Can’t Hardly Wait” or “Twilight” which I had on my list.
Hmmmm..might need to downgrade my rating of this podcast from 5 to 3!!!
Just kidding!!
Whether it’s Ben sexy whispery deep radio DJ voice, Tanya’s unflailing loyalty to Zombies or Daniel’s spectacularly hilarious voice impersonations, you will not find pockets of monotony here if you’re a movie buff.
Love them and you will too if you give them a test listen: be warned: you will get hooked!!!
A fantastic delve into classics and niche films
This show has me sitting in my car long after ive reached my destination, just to get a few more minutes in. The gang all provide their own unique insight into nostalgic titles, and really do their research. I’ve had to take time to watch a few classics they recommend and it was well worth it. I would love to hear their thoughts on a personal favorite, Hook, with Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman.
Love the show, keep it up!
A real panty dropper!
I’m moist with anticipation for episode 3!
