Sci-Fi Party Line #182 Snowpiercer

scifipartyline_snowpiercer_650px

“I did not expect the cinematic experience that was ‘Snowpiercer’.”
– Cat (@fancyfembot)

“That movie is off the rails!”
– Carl (@robominister)

“‘Snowpiercer’ was size 10 chaos!”
– Carl (@robominister)

“It’s a nice goulash of allegorical sci-fi.”
– Eric (@BullittWHO)

“Generational train; Powered by kids? THIS IS NEW!”
– Carl (@robominister)

“‘Snowpiercer’ is my ‘Moon’ of 2014.”
– Eric (@BullittWHO)

The first 20 minutes of this episode is spoiler free!

This week’s crew is Eric, Carl, and Cat and we discuss Snowpiercer. Carl’s obsessed with the stratification of society. Cat’s obsessed with the gratuitous snowflake. After we’ve kinda faded out of talking about Snowpiercer (@1:28:30), Eric becomes disgusted that Cat quit Game of Thrones and hasn’t seen Children of MenAt the end of the episode we have some great outtakes due to Skype issues; we suffer Groudhog’s Day (or is it Edge of Tomorrow) right here on this very episode!
