Elliott puts on his greasy overalls to look under the filmic hood, as we figure out what makes a good “robot movie,” ask why Heartbeeps was a bad one, and see if we can pull out the robot defibrillator to restore its cinematic heartbeep.

Episode #445 – Star Trek: Section 31, with Ben Harrison and Adam Pranica

há 5 weeks

—

Wow! The first new Star Trek movie in eight years! What’s that you say? Oh. TV movie? And it’s less a “movie” and more a “we were going to develop a new series and that fell through so we made it a one-off, 90 minute thing?” Huh. Well, Star Trek: Section 31 may not be a “movie” in the same way we’ve used that word for most of its existence, but it was still a good excuse to hang out with our friends Adam and Ben from Max Fun’s terrific Trek shows Greatest Gen and Greatest Trek , so every cosmic cloud has a silver lining, we guess.
