689. Escape from the Multicurse: Edge of Tomorrow
🕑 Added 2024-02-16 14:00:14 +0000 UTC
Our three co-hosts are stuck in the multiverse and need to get back to their home universe. Clearly, the only way to do that is to explore our cultural obsession with multiverses, alternate timelines and parallel worlds, and tie it all into a conversation about post-modern art, pop culture, and the lessons these stories teach us. Also, each episode, one of them is an asshole who will probably sabotage the whole thing.
This week we discuss 2014’s Edge of Tomorrow.

I didn’t know who Abe was during everyone’s time at Cracked, but now he’s my favorite bean. Thanks for always being a riot!

If time loop movies are on the table then I'd love for you guys to consider watching/discussing the pseudodocumentary The History of Time Travel.

Please fellows, I beseech you, please, please stop saying "Groundhog's Day". I am not even 9 minutes in and I wish to self harm. Thank you Ganz for not saying it that way.

A few observations. I think the reason only she had the sword was because it’s only effective against these things on someone with her insane level of experience fighting the aliens. I also thought while they were generic, it works well when you consider them as cells in a singular organism, which is something I believe they bring up. The aliens are almost white blood cells. Also, I think they brought up that they did try going to the military about it, but they thought it was bullshit, that’s why they had to talk their way into the safe to get the device.

Monday Movie Night is definitely worth checking out, interesting choices and some smart commentary in the Discord as well
