    Episode 6: Wing Commander — Stars, Ships & 90s Sci-Fi Swagger

    🚀 New Episode: WING COMMANDER — Stars, Ships & 90s Sci-Fi Swagger 🌌 This week on The Silver Screen Sessions Podcast, we’re blasting off to the year 2654 for a nostalgic dive into Wing Commander (1999) — the space combat adventure starring Freddie Prinze Jr., Matthew Lillard, and Saffron Burrows. Before Battlestar Galactica came back and long before Mass Effect existed, this movie tried to bring a hit video game universe to the big screen — complete with starfighter dogfights, Cold War tension, and 100% pure 90s attitude. 😎 In this episode, I’ll cover: 🎬 The story behind the Terran–Kilrathi war 💡 Behind-the-scenes facts (including how a Star Wars trailer overshadowed the movie!) 🎮 Why it’s one of the earliest — and weirdest — video game adaptations ⭐ My honest verdict: flawed but fascinating sci-fi nostalgia It’s got heart, hyperspace, and a whole lot of ambition. 🎧 Listen now wherever you get your podcasts — and remember, in space, there’s no pause button. #TheSilverScreenSessionsPodcast #WingCommander #FreddiePrinzeJr #MatthewLillard #90sMovies #SciFiMovies #MovieReview #FilmPodcast #VideoGameMovies #CultClassics #SpaceOpera #RetroCinema
