We brush upon the Walking dead, the Green Lantern, Fallout New Vegas and the numerous bugs that plague it. Join us for the last movie of the original Star Trek series cast.

Sun, 31 October 2010
This episode takes John D. and Frank back to their roots as we publish a new entry in the Arnold Arc, Raw Deal (1986).

This episode takes John D. and Gen back to the Genesis planet in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.

We tangent all over the place and explain why The Lion King is a perfect date movie, the relevance of a theatrical trailer that shows all the best scenes and why Gen is not playing Fallout New Vegas yet.

Sun, 17 October 2010

We of course talk about Ricardo Montalban's chest, the Shat's acting abilities and the introduction of the Kobayashi Maru. We tangent all over the place, talking about John D. meeting Kevin Smith, Gen's Halloween costume, Leonard Nimoy's career, why we are afraid of teleportation and the arrival of Netflix in Canada. For some reason we can’t stop screaming ‘’KHHAAAANNNN’’ and wonder how many fans stop the Shat in the street while screaming it. |
Mon, 11 October 2010
This episode takes John D. and Gen back to a 1885 Hill Valley in Back to the Future III. We discuss Marty's incredible strength in his capacity to carry Doc on his back, the weird DNA heritage of the McFly lineage and the need for a clock tower in a town with only about four houses. We establish that Marty has his priorities straight by going directly to the saloon and getting a "smoking wisky’’ when he gets to town. We also try to understand why 1985 Doc doesn’t remember what his 1955 version found out about his future, which actually happened in the past... and we lose ourselves in the fourth dimension. This brings an end to our Back to the Future arc. Hopefully no remakes are in the works. |
Sun, 3 October 2010
This episode takes John D. and Frank into the world of John Hughes as we revisit Weird Science. We share stories from our teenage years, remember what a VHS was and try to understand how this movie got a PG-13 rating.

God bless the 80’s for some of the most beautiful haircuts we’ve ever seen. |

This episode takes John D. and Frank into the setting of The Gamers: Dorkness Rising. |
Sun, 19 September 2010
This episode take John D. and Frank to the explosive island of Vilena in the film The Expendables. We are impressed to see how buff Stallone is versus the governator, how useless the women are and how wood is about to replace C4 as portable explosive material.

This episode takes John D. and Gen to the future Hill Valley as we travel with Doc Brown Back to the Future (part 2). We are amazed at the traffic Jam of the SKYway, concept of policewomen/strippers coming in 5 years and that we are actually talking about Dustbusters and LaserDisc.

This episode takes John D. and Gen back to 1985 as they try to get Back to the Future. We wonder about what has changed since 1985, if Eric Stoltz would have been a good Marty and how much money was made by product placement. We are puzzled by the way alcoholism, drug abuse, bribery, gunfire, incest, sexual assault and terrorism are portrayed in this family movie. Once again we draw parallels to Star Trek, but this time it’s not our fault: Darth Vader brought it up. You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

We discuss the flying car that’s coming in 9 years, the implications of wearing saran wrap as a coat and the 3rd degree of science fiction where everything goes back to Star Trek. We lose ourselves in multiple Trek stories referring to Tasha Yar’s death, Klingon Gagh and how Dr Martin Luther King convinced Nichelle Nichols not to quit the show.
