Episode 18 - Alien³ (1992)

Send us a text

It's the definitive Alien³ podcast! This is a deep dive, featuring a dissection of this exponentially-titled film's themes, comparisons between the original and assembly cuts, thoughts on its place in the Alien franchise...and also Nic breaks out into a 20-minute monologue about nihilism. For those who wish a podcast that covers films like Wild Wild West would give their movie selections a deeper analysis, these two hours comprise our longest non-bonus episode, and reference, in short, the works of Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, Jean-Paul Sartre, Alan Pratt, Martin Heidegger, and early 20th century Welsh poetry.
Also, Jordan reports back on 1992's Nemesis, which he was made to watch because he lost last episode's trivia battle. Will he ever win? Or is life just a cold, meaningless void?
