When it comes to the building blocks of modern science fiction, for at least people our age, in their 40's, it all starts with 2001 A Space Odyssey. Join Carlos at GeekFest Rants as we dip our toe into the ocean that is 2001. From the film by Stanley Kubrick, to the novel by Arthur C. Clarke, to the comic book adaptation by Jack Kirby, how are they the same and different. And lest we forget the cinematic sequel 2010 The Year We Make Contact. Does this Roy Scheider vehicle live up to the monolithic original? Pun intended. Does this 50 year old film still hold up?

Today on GeekFest Rants, Carlos looks at both sides of the Star Wars fandom coin, the positive fan gatherings like Star Wars Celebration and the flip side with the ugly newer toxic fandom incidents. This non traditional Star Wars fan behavior seems to have been gathering steam most recently with the new Disney/Lucasfilm films like The Force Awakens and culminating with The Last Jedi and Solo.
Instead of traditional thoughtful story and character analysis we now have a new wave of hatred towards this franchise rooted in racism, sexism, and general intolerance. What's at the root of this behavior? And, can we ever get back to the open, inclusive, safe environment that Star Wars has always been?

Hey kids! This time around on Reel Wisdom we take a look at the 2nd film in the 3rd trilogy of Star Wars Films, The Last Jedi. I really dug this flick and thought that there was lot of wisdom contained in the story which was penned by Rian Johnson who directed and wrote one of my favorite movies, a flick called Brick.
In the scene that we are going to listen to this time around Yoda breaks down a few important tidbits of learning to good old Luke Skywalker about living in the moment and about learning from our mistakes. From there I talk a bit about what he said to Luke and what I think that he means when he says "We are what they grow beyond".
Thanks for giving us a few minutes of your time and I hope that you had an awesome May The Fourth!

Today on GeekFest Rants we are looking at two very different films. One is the documentary Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Dr. Moreau, the story of a film that did not get made. However, this story is better than the actual film that was made. The other is Mother!, the latest mind-bender from Darren Aronofsky. Which means, as a film viewer, you will have some homework to do after watching the film.
Then we lighten things up with the original Kenner 12 inch doll of Indiana Jones from Raiders of the lost Ark. Another Holy Grail item Carlos can now cross off his toy collecting list.

The Hey kids. This week we have something super fun! An all new/all exciting episode of The Audio Handbook Of The Marvel Universe! This time around we are going to take a look at The Immortal Iron Fist, Danny Rand.
I am a huge fan of Iron Fist but have to admit that his origin was something that I was not an expert in. I knew some of the rough details but making this episode helped me to fill in some of the gaps that I had. I feel like I know Danny Much better now..
There are ninjas, and Kung-Fu and Fists made of Iron and all sorts of other fun things contained within! It's a super fun episode and I hope that you have a good time checking it out while also leaving a bit more enlightened on the subject of The Lost City of Kun-Lun and Kung-Fu stuff in general.

Then we examine current films on Netflix. How good are those suggestions that Netflix offers when you are done watching a film. Some are hidden gems, and some are not.
