    An episode for Tim Curry fans, and Tim Curry fans only! Today on the FFR podcast we are revisiting one Ebony’s childhood favorites, Ridley Scott’s 1985 glorious, florid, Baroque banquet of a film: Legend.

    FFR 188: Titanic with special guest Caitlin Durante Jan 19, 2022
    Show notes

    For over 20 years, both Anita and Ebony have successfully refused to watch James Cameron’s 1997 mega-blockbuster Titanic, but today they’ve finally relented in order to have a discussion with returning guest and Titanic super-fan Caitlin Durante. Can Caitlin’s sincere love of this disaster movie/period romance warm the waters of Anita and Ebony’s icy reception? Or are two decades worth of parody, memes, and replays of “My Heart Will Go On” too much to keep them from never letting go?

    FFR 187: Benedetta with special guest Carolyn Petit Dec 22, 2021
    Show notes

    In our final episode of 2021, we welcome a very special guest: Carolyn Petit herself! Along with Anita and Ebony, the original FFR trio are discussing Paul Verhoeven’s Benedetta—the premiere of which faced protests by Catholics upset with the film’s depiction of illicit attraction between 17th century nuns. Does this ecstatically portrayed story of Sister Benedetta—a fervently devoted Renaissance nun consumed by the force of her transcendent visions—qualify as a Very Caro Movie?

    FFR 186: The Terminator Franchise with special guest Caroline Heldman Dec 15, 2021
    Show notes

    Along with their special guest—Caroline Heldman, chair of critical theory and social justice at Occidental College and the executive director at The Representation Project—Anita and Ebony are taking on the entirety of the Terminator franchise. From the 1984 original and “T2” a decade later, to the (perhaps less memorable) follow-ups from the two-thousands and beyond, the Terminator franchise catalyzed the careers of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton, and Michael Biehn and launched a pop culture juggernaut that to date includes 6 films, novels, a tv show, video games, comics, and a web series. Just what is it about the characters and concerns of this dystopian nightmare that has proved so compelling for audiences over the last 40 years? And what could it look like in the future as stars age and technology catches up to the AI promise of Skynet?

    FFR 185: Terminator: Dark Fate - FFR re-release Dec 08, 2021
    Show notes

    This episode of the podcast was originally meant to be a look at the Terminator franchise as a whole, but there’s only two things that can stop a podcast: (1) the fall of civilization at the hands of our robot overlords, or (2) laryngitis. We’ll let you guess which took down this week’s attempt.

    Our Terminator meta-take will be out in a few weeks, but in the meanwhile we’re re-releasing our episode on 2019’s Terminator: Dark Fate. Below you’ll find our original show notes for the episode which aired November 20, 2019. Enjoy!

    —

    Terminator: Dark Fate is the 6th entry in the wibbly-wobbley timey-wimey cinematic universe originally brought to life by James Cameron in 1984. The franchise has taken a lot of detours over the past 35 years — some more successful than others — but the supporting infrastructure of the story has never really changed: sometime in “the future,” “the machines” turn on us and wage an all-out war that leaves billions dead and the planet a devastated wasteland. But there’s a brave human resistance lead by an incredibly inspirational white dude! So in a truly bonkers effort to eradicate those pesky humans once and for all, the machine intelligence — called Skynet — sends killer cyborgs into the past to kill that human leader before he can grow into his destiny. The resistance is like “chill, bro” and sends their OWN dude back in time to prevent Skynet from succeeding.

    In this latest film, a lot of the accumulated mythos that was developed over the past 3 or 4 movies has been jettisoned entirely and we’ve gone back to the beginning, and all our old friends are along for the ride. But this time around, the protector sent back to save humanity is a woman, and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator has relaxed into a comfortable semi-retirement when he’s not running his drapery business. Oh, and Sarah Connor is back and she is still kicking ass!

    But perhaps the most important thing about this film is that the hero that we’re invested in? The one that must be protected at all costs? It’s not a white woman who will birth the future leader of the human resistance. It’s not the white dude himself. It’s a young Mexican woman.
