Buckle up, fans — this week we're blasting off to a galaxy of laser swords, warp drives, and worlds beyond imagination! Host Jamie Ray is joined by first-time guest Chris from the Longbox Crusade's "Best Under 5" podcast for a conversation that's out of this world.

The 1980s were truly the golden age of Science Fiction and Sword & Sorcery on the big screen. It was a decade where anything felt possible — where audiences lined up around the block to watch rebels battle empires across the stars, barbarian warriors clash with sorcerers in ancient lands, and everyday kids stumble into adventures that were anything but ordinary. Practical effects, synth-heavy scores, and pure storytelling ambition made '80s genre films unlike anything before or since. From the gritty darkness of Blade Runner to the thundering heroics of Conan the Barbarian, from the swashbuckling fantasy of Willow and Labyrinth to the pulse-pounding thrills of Aliens and The Terminator — Hollywood was firing on all cylinders, and genre fans were eating it up.

Together, Jamie and Chris dig into their Fave Five Sci-Fi & Fantasy Films from this legendary decade. They'll compare lists, defend their picks, and maybe spark a debate or two along the way. From epic space adventures to sword-and-sorcery classics, the '80s gave us movies that defined childhoods, launched franchises, and still hold up decades later.

Was your favorite film left off the list? Let us know! And be sure to check out Chris and the crew over at the Longbox Crusade's "Best Under 5" podcast for more great content from a fellow fan.

So grab your flux capacitor, fire up the hyperdrive, and hit play — this is one episode you won't want to miss!

We're taking it to the floor of Louisiana Comic Con 2026 — and things got loud! This week, I'm joined live on stage by Nelson Gonzales, host of the fantastic Average Home Theater Reviews podcast, for a wild, crowd-fueled conversation about our five favorite time travel movies… that are absolutely, definitively, not Back to the Future.

That's right — we're leaving the DeLorean in the parking lot. 🎬⏱️

From mind-bending paradoxes to pulse-pounding action, heartbreaking twists to total cinematic chaos, Nelson and I dig into the time travel films that had us on the edge of our seats, rewinding (pun intended) scenes just to wrap our brains around them. The crowd at Comic Con had plenty of opinions too — and trust me, they did NOT hold back.

Whether you're a die-hard sci-fi nerd, a casual movie lover, or someone who still loses sleep over plot holes, this episode has something for you. Expect laughs, spirited debates, a couple of strong hot takes, and maybe a mild argument or two about what actually counts as a "good" time travel movie.

Grab your popcorn, strap in, and let's jump through some cinematic wormholes — Convention Hall style!
