Geek Bytes Episode 21 - 2036 Origin Unknown

Image
Geek Bytes Episode 21 is what happens when you send an AI to do a human's job. Or is it? Perhaps it's just Rich and Stu philosophising about a sci-fi movie. We'll let you be the judge. Available on all good podcasting apps. https://archive.org/download/2036-origin-unknown/2036OriginUnknown.mp3

Geek Bytes Episode 17 - Code 8

Image
This episode, Rich and Stu go through Code 8, Stephen and Robbie Amell's Indiegogo-funded superpowered romp through the near future. Does it live up to their Arrowverse heritage, or is it more like the DCEU? Check it out in the latest episode of Geek Bytes - available on all good podcasting apps. https://archive.org/download/geek-bytes-ep-17-code-8_202005/Geek_Bytes_Ep17_Code8.mp3

Geek Bytes Episode 14 - How It Ends

Image
Rich and Stu are back in your time of need with a road-trip through the apocalyptic wasteland that is the American Midwest. Oh, did we mention that it's the end of society and the world as we know it? How It Ends stars Theo James and Forest Whitaker. We won't pretend that it's the perfect antidote to our current situation, but give our review a listen anyway. It's all here in the latest episode of Geek Bytes. https://archive.org/download/geekbytesep14howitends/Geek%20Bytes%20Ep%2014%20-%20How%20It%20Ends.mp3

Geek Bytes Episode 13 - Birds Of Prey

Image
Rich and Stu review the latest movie offering from DC. The original title was a bit of a mouthful - did the film ultimately live up to it? Did they miss the Joker? Was it a good ensemble cast? What does this mean for The Suicide Squad? All that and more is in the latest episode of Geek Bytes - available on all good podcasting apps. https://archive.org/download/geekbytesbirdsofpreymixdown/Geek%20Bytes%20-%20Birds%20of%20Prey_mixdown.mp3

Geek Bytes Episode 11 - V For Vendetta

Image
In an alternative future, the United Kingdom under the control of fascists and isolationists. Only one man can lead a revolution. No, it's not that Justin Bieber, it's Hugo Weaving in a mask. Join, as always, Rich and Stu as they go through one of Stu's favourite films of all time.  Will you get Fingered or will you join the Warner Bros-sponsored revolution? Find it all out in the latest episode of Geek Bytes, available on all good podcasting apps. https://archive.org/download/geekbytesep11v/Geek%20Bytes%20Ep11%20V.mp3

Geek Bytes Episode 10 - Hellboy (2019)

Image
Is it a reboot? Is it a sequel? Well, whatever it is, it's got a suspiciously ripped David Harbour. Rich and Stu go through the dense plot of this comic book adaptation from Neil Marshall and share their plans for a genre-spanning Harbour-verse. If you're lucky, there might just be time for a little bit of spoiler-free Picard chat at the end.

Geek Bytes Episode 6 - Replicas

Image
Perhaps, like most of us, Keanu Reeves's Replicas passed you by on release. Well, Rich and Stu have got your back. There's a lot to like about this film, but also a fair amount to dislike. Listen in to see what the lads thought of it, discussion of morality, zombies, cloning, robotics, and a Bill And / Or Ted impression. It's all here in the latest episode of Geek Bytes.

Geek Bytes Episode 3 - I Am Mother

Image
Rich and Stu are back, taking a whistle-stop tour through the aftermath of the AI apocalypse in I Am Mother. There are two ways to interpret this film, and they're almost as different as Kant and Comte's respective world views. It's all here in the latest episode of Geek Bytes. https://archive.org/download/geekbytesiammothermixdown/GeekBytes_I_am_Mother_mixdown.mp3
