New @UnclearPod episode is on the 1995 movie 12 Monkeys podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unc… Good discussion in 2nd half by @jbouie and @lionel_trolling on the often accidentally right wing politics of dystopian fiction, and the connection between artistic solipsism, nihilism, and boredom.

@UnclearPod WHM is doing 1994's Terminal Velocity tomorrow and it's basically White Sands meets Drop Zone. Plot even involves ex-KGB gangsters including James Gandolfini. Would make a good episode to add to the list.
@jbouie a movie that truly understands politics
@default_friend @lionel_trolling having read some of his reviews, that wouldnt be for a lack of trying. in fact, that seems to be his specialist subject - positively reviewing anti-woke literature with the general caveat that these books have overlooked an aspect of 'wokeness' that he alone has picked up on.
@UnclearPod @UnclearPod Love the show! I’ll subscribe to Patreon if it goes towards funding a good microphone for @lionel_trolling

just dont get any ideas jeffrey
Epic donuts. Fork is for scale
@UnclearPod Lincoln works better than American President because Kushner and Spielberg - while pretty good analogs for Sorkin and Reiner - are not just better artists (they are) but liberals who can imagine a revolutionary solution even if they are Hollywood libs. FDR vs Clinton.
@jbouie I've never forgotten old Jonah asking if any of his fans had read Hegel I think and could send him some easy to read breakdowns of his ideas, since he had no intention of reading himself and didn't think the book really required that he do so.
@jbouie If you think "Jamelle and John riffing on American Revolution alt history" would make us tune out, you don't know your audience.
@jbouie Enjoyed the episode, but was surprised you didn’t really talk about the 12/31/99 setting. One thing about the 90s was how much of it we spent freaking out about the Year 2000 — they even call it “2K” in the movie, a couple years before the term “Y2K” was widespread
@swolecialism It just boils down to Americans not being able to conceive of any action thisn't done by them or to them. Everything is one of those two.
@CoreyAtad Yes--it owes a debt to the kind of movie they discuss on @UnclearPod. It's a throwback in many ways but the choice to make the bad guy basically digital technology itself feels very current--though as I get into in the review, I wish the villain(s)' motives were better developed.
@jbouie @UnclearPod I made my parents watch this before they watched Andor and it got them very upset.
@jbouie @UnclearPod Director Gillo Pontecorvo's brother Bruno was a well-known and important particle physicist who worked with Fermi, was an expert on neutrinos, and defected to the USSR after WWII.
@jbouie Oh yeah. I highly recommend the documentaries included with the box set. Harrowing and eye-opening. The French were far worse in Algeria than the film showed.
A splinter group of the Russian military is threatening to seize control of nuclear weapons? I recall this exact scenario in, oh, every single 90s action movie. Paging @UnclearPod.
@NickTagliaferro too bad he's also the paradigmatic example of a guy who will never read anything because he's convinced that he's already figured it all out from first principles
@lionel_trolling They’re also narrowly educated, overly impressed with their own shallow opinions, annoyed by people with greater expertise than themselves, and as such prone to conspiracy theories.
@jbouie I was surprised you guys didn't mention the Schwarzenegger Presidential Library gag.
