Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.

Richard Oliver, from the Chasing Tone Podcast, returns to discuss one of his favorite 80s Science Fiction classics.
George hasn't seen The Fly. In fact, he hasn't seen the old one, either. Heck, he hasn't seen Jeff Goldblum in anything since Jurassic Park (and hasn't seen that movie in years!) He wasn't ready.
Oddly enough, Dan hasn't seen The Fly either. He's seen the original from the 50s but held off on watching this until we could cover it for the show. He... also wasn't ready. But for different reasons.
Will George make it through the birth scene intact? Do the contents of the medicine cabinet top the beauty of that one effect in the movie Se7en? Is Dan offended or impressed by "the Fly sci-fi but it is AIDS" plot? Will Richard ever watch Leave it to Beaver? Tune in to find out!
