Earth-2.net Presents...

HAA's favorite Danish-American is, of course, Christian Honore. But, as he isn't a movie actor, attention has turned instead to one of the lynchpins of the Lord of the Rings trilogy: Viggo Mortensen. The Brothers Wilson feature his literal crowning glory in Return of the King, whilst ignoring his pre-Tolkein career in favor of an atypical comic book movie, A History of Violence, and his part in th...

After a botched intro, Dan and Mike gush about Hawkworld, the 1989 miniseries that attempted to do for Hawkman what The Man of Steel and The Dark Knight Returns did for Superman and Batman. Then they look at a Silver Age classic: The Brave and the Bold #34. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.

We all know that the odd-numbered Star Trek films are trash, right? Not so much, actually. While Star Trek III: The Search for Spock might not be the most exciting Trek film ever made, it does introduce Christopher Lloyd as the ruthless Klingon Commander Kruge, lays groundwork for future films, and sees the destruction of the beloved Enterprise. It also begs some hard-to-discuss questions pertaini...

We would like, if we may, to take you on a strange journey. The Flickchart Forum sees Ian (a paralegal), Dan (a geriatric), and Chris (a professor) take note of and rank all the films name-checked in the song "Science Fiction / Double Feature" from The Rocky Horror Show. It is a veritable time warp focusing on cult horror and science fiction movies from many years ago. So just how does the discuss...

The hosts look at his pre-franchise career hits of The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert with Weaving as a drag queen, and The Interview, with Weaving as a murder suspect in police cus...

Stepping outside of his usual arena, The Flying Danishman, Christian Honore, goes three rounds with The Fierce Chicken of Bristol, Tom Stavros Hemmings, over sports. Between bobbing and weaving through their favorite fictional sports, pummeling their least favorite ones, and promoting the greatest sports matches, the two podcasting pugilists also lay down some dubious baseball metaphors, confront...

Along...
