Don Shanahan
The hosts of the Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast, sponsored and supported by the Ruminations Radio Network, have tip-toed through a few individual and shared blind spots this summer in the filmography of Ridley Scott. G.I. Jane recently reached their recorded conversations. Hannibal and Legend are on their lists of possibilities. This week, however, it’s 2015 box office and critical hit, The Martian. As said on the show, Ridley Scott made be the most inconsistent great filmmaker.
For their 208th episode, two “Council of Elrond” film critics, two space cadet dads, and two non-botany teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, take a trip to the next planet in the solar system to cover a Ridley Scott blindspot. Don has long loved and celebrated The Martian, a multiple Oscar nominee, in its ten years of film-watching existence. On the other hand, Will had never seen it until prepping for this show, even though he’s read the Andy Weir souce novel.. Enjoy getting space-y with these guys. Come learn more and stay for the mutual love and respect that fun movies encapsulate. Enjoy our podcast!
