It's Time for Filmshake's Alien³ Episode!

"LIFE IS MEANINGLESS, RIPLEY!!! EXISTENCE PRECEDES ESSENCE!!!"

My 90's movie podcast with Jordan Courtney doesn't often get the chance to deeply analyze a film--after all, there's not much in 1999's Wild Wild West or 1998's Godzilla that deserves a deeper look. Maybe because of this, for our new episode on 1992's Alien³, we went hard...really hard. If you want to listen to me relate a 28-year-old overlooked science fiction film to the writings of Nietzsche, Sartre, Heidegger, Alan Pratt, William Shakespeare, and Dylan Thomas, look no further. This episode is it!
It's uh...it's got some funny bits too. You can't say we're not diverse!

That photo and its caption are hilarious! "Existence precedes essence" rang through my head many a times in undergrad ... not sure if that makes me cool or just cliche. Lol.
That alien got up in your face too, huh? Lol.
