Sci-Fi Party Line #340 10th Annual 2019 TURD OFF! Part 1 of 2 💩

Cat (@fancyfembot) and Carl (@robominister) due their yearly “dooty” and push out the sci-fi turds of 2019! Listen to part 1 as we sort through the stinky contenders that are striving for the brown💩!

Turd Criteria:
1) Squandered Effects: Did they have a big budget and use special effects in a meaningful way to advance the story or were the special effects not compelling and misused/underutilized given the budget of the film?
2) Acting?: Did the acting contribute to the enjoyment of the film or was it painful to watch? Did the casting make sense for the film?
3) Turdage Per Dollar: Was there a big budget and nothing to show for it? Did they use the budget to create an effective film or was it wasted?
4) Fury Upon Exit: Were you pissed off when you were done watching this film? Do you still have residual fury when you talk about it?
5) Which Sequel Would Offend the Least?: Do you want a sequel? Could you tolerate a sequel?

Films of Turds Past:
2010 Last Airbender vs. Skyline*
2011 Cowboys & Aliens vs. Transformers: Dark of the Moon*
2012 Branded* vs. Lockout
2013 After Earth* vs. RIPD and The Host vs. Gallowwalkers
2014 The Signal vs. Transformers: Age of Extinction*
2015 Fantastic Four* vs. Jupiter Ascending vs. Terminator: Genisys
2016 Arrival vs. Morgan vs. Independence Day: Resurgence* vs. X-Men: Apocalypse
2017 Transformers: The Last Knight vs. Geostorm* vs. The Mummy vs. Beyond Skyline
2018 Occupation vs. Cloverfield Paradox* vs. Future World vs. The Predator
 (Listen to find out!) 

*Bold denotes the winner for the year.

Fancy Fembot’s 2018 Sci-Fi Manfest

It’s that time of year where I do my sacred duty of objectifying men in a tireless effort to balance the objectification scale. This is a protest; a sexy, glistening protest. It is a burden – A BURDEN I SAY – to search endlessly for images of shirtless, chiseled, well-oiled men. It is a sacrifice I am willing to make ALL FOR YOU!

Sci-Fi Party Line #262 2016 Film Review + TURD OFF Part 2

PART TWO!


It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

It’s part 2 of the SEVENTH ANNUAL SCI-FI PARTY LINE TURD OFF!
Cat (@fancyfembot) and Carl (@robominister) continue our yearly tradition coaxing out the yearly sci-fi turd. We start out Captain America: Civil War. Cat was impressed that Cap kicked a whole bunch of ass in a pair of khakis. Carl merely ‘enjoyed’ the film. We, of course, mention Black Panther and its casting choices. We wrap up the show with X-Men: Apocalypse – Carl’s turd-, and Ghostbusters.

Sci-Fi Party Line Podcast #237 Seventh Anniversary Episode Part 1

marvel-avengers-age-of-ultron

This is a wild episode and it put the Party in to Sci-Fi Party Line. It is our 7th anniversary and we have the whole crew together: Cat (@fancyfembot), Carl (@robominister), Eric (@BullittWho), Hanako (@hmrpotter), and Stephanie (@stephbystereo).

For the first 15 minutes we reminisce about how we all first came together and go down memory lane with one of our most memorable voicemails. We do have actual voicemails from long-time listeners @Roddykat and @hal2814 who put us in check about the most recent Fantastic Four film. After that we discuss Avengers: Age of Ultron, Antman, Marvel Studios, Fantastic Four, Legends of Tomorrow, and bizarrely end up talking about the classic song ‘Float On’.

Stay tuned for part two!

The band is back together for an epic THREE HOUR EPISODE! Today’s crew is Carl, Eric, and Cat. Today we discuss the BBC Doctor Who Webisode “Night of the Doctor”. Next, we talk about Gravity (@15:48) and get into a cool discussion about realistic space movies. I got those guys to stop blahblahing about space and WE WENT TO THOR! (@51:11). Cat takes a moment to rant about Christopher Eccleston and his BAD decision to not join the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who. We talk The Walking Dead, Carol’s dark turn and resulting exit (@1:20:43). We also voices our concerns about Agents of SHIELD (@1:15:01). Eric compares it to Arrow. Cat is the only one excited about the new Robocop trailer (@2:14:48). Carl discusses his reaction to the pilot of The Tomorrow People. Later, Cat squees about the X-Men: Days of Future Past trailer and there’s some Star Trek: First Contact confusion. Finally, we read some of the feedback we’ve received on Twitter and thank the listeners of the show. Cat hopes @stefanlashley is a good sport because there’s some clowning going on. Thank you @MarkCockram, @crisklages, @AstralAudio, @hal2814, @starsnrain07, @Bluezfan1987, @dougrapson, and @DwightWho.

Sci-Fi Party Line #127 Ladies guide to The Avengers; Birdemic


“Everyone had different incarnations of Nicolas Cage’s hair.”
-Stephanie (NiNi) (@stephbystereo)

“When I was looking at Captain America the LAST thing I was looking at is his hair.”
-Cat (@fancyfembot)

“They were Windows 95 screensaver birds.”
-Stephanie (NiNi) (@stephbystereo)

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ SPOILER ALERT ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

This episode of Sci-Fi Party Line is INsane! Today’s crew is Cat and NiNi. We discuss The Avengers from our own unique perspective. We get a little raunchy and discuss everything from meow, meow to Scarlett Johansson butt needing her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. To temper the geek girl stroke fest we go from discussing the best movie of 2012 to the worst movie of ALL TIME, Birdemic (51:10). We get wacky and can’t stop our gigglefest. We try to give this movie a fair review but… well, just listen.
