Final Picture Show Podcast Ep 2: Battlefield Earth (2000)
from The Final Picture Show Podcast: Where the End times are Alive! · host Matthew Poland
Disco fever’ Disco fever, yeah yea yea—we got that disco fever, join us in what was a lost episode as we delve into the world of Sci-fi legend L. Ron Hubbard as we, simple humans, look at the John Travolta led disaster of a film Battlefield Earth. We will look at the movie itself, the lore surrounding it getting made, what it was supposed to be—how badly it bombed, late night cinemax from the 90s, and if the film is actually that bad, and how Tarantino could have saved the day. The audio was really bad for this episode as the software decided to record a different mic then intended. It’s not the best, but it only gets better from here!
