Joined the gang at Fulcrum for this, which was great fun.

Lots of talk about why the film stands up as a scifi film on its own, and Meyer's belief that at heart Star Trek is a human stories in a seafaring setting. Which is why the even films are better than the odd ones (they're all his ones)

A little hint of what John Bull will be sharing with us this week when we record an episode on Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan
"The Royal Navy, during the Napoleonic Wars, was the springboard for my imagination. Particularly the novels of C S Forester... I remember thinking: Star Trek is Hornblower in space. That analogy informed my whole approach to Wrath of Khan."

- Nicholas Mayer, Director and writer of Wrath

Slightly different release days for us the next week or so. Two of those will be Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and 12 Angry Men! Keep an eye out for (hopefully) more episodes than usual - to aide your journeys home and if Christmas/families get too much 😬

Been on the Millennium Fulcrum podcast talking about one of my favourite films of all time:

It's Wonderful Life.

A great, considered episode from the gang on why this is a film that hits harder now than it did on release.

Bonus chat from me as to why this is a war film. People just don't spot it.
