The Omega Beam Orren Merton

We watched all three parts, 53 episodes, of Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia, the first show in Guillermo Del Toro's Netflix animated "Tales of Arcadia" trilogy. We keep spoilers to a minimum, so if you've seen some, all, or none of the episodes, you're good to go!

Orren picks one for Golden: the 2009 indie sci-fi film Moon, the first film by Duncan Jones. Spoiler alert: it's an 11 year old film, so we discuss the entire movie. If you haven't seen it yet (and it's a masterpiece!) then please see it first, unless you truly don't care about spoilers!

Golden picks one for Orren: the 2011 sci-fi thriller Source Code! It's a nine-year-old movie, so we're not as worried about spoilers, but in the end of the episode there are some serious spoilers; don't worry, we let you know in advance so you can avoid them if you want.

After years of hesitating to see it because of how much I loved the original 1982 Blade Runner, Golden finally convinced me to watch the 2017 sequel, Blade Runner 2049. We share our thoughts with some, but minimal, spoilers.

The Omega Beam has reached a milestone: our 100th episode! To celebrate, we have a wide-ranging conversation with friend of the show, special guest David Raiklen, covering our thoughts on the future of genre (sci-fi, fantasy, superhero, etc) film and television production. Enjoy!

Do you love the 1980 sci-fi cult-classic Flash Gordon as much as we do? Or at least are you curious about it? A brand new 4K UHD Collector's Edition has been released, which we took as an opportunity to rewatch the movie and discuss both the film and the new edition!
