O.K. Video

If this week's film had come out in 1989, maybe it would have found more love out there. Then again, why would Ice Cube and his Mars Camo pants be in it if it came out before NWA broke big? John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars is the subject of this week's O.K. Video, thanks for joining us. As Mars is in space, this qualifies as space horror, even though it is kind of more of a space western.  If you want to send questions that will be answered in the distant future, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We can also get tweets @okvideopodcast -N Ghosts of Mars

Welcome to O.K. Video's sixth batch, SPACE HORROR! We kick things off with a movie Nathan and Ryan have been curious about for years, Pandorum . Will this tale of space madness and mutant murderers appeal to the former video store clerks? You'll have to listen for two or three minutes to find out. Then there will be more discussion. If you want to contact us, it is easier than utilizing a giant satellite dish, you just need a computer and an internet connection, or a phone and an internet connection, or a smart TV and an internet connection. I'm not as certain that last one will work, but email ryan@okvideo.ca or tweet @okvideopodcast. -N Pandorum

It is our first experimental episode! We wanted to talk about the Alien franchise but couldn't figure out how to do it without flooding our Superior Sequels category with several films, so Ryan and Nathan decided to pit Aliens and Alien 3 against each other! They looked at the theatrical cut of each film and talked at length about the franchise, then weighed in on the veracity of the Auteur Theory. Enjoy! If you want to contact us, do so. There are several ways. -N

It is hard to believe, but effectively the same thing happens to the same guy again in Die Hard 2: Die Harder . John McClane was just trying to pick up his wife from the airport when terrorists decided to ruin Christmas for a whole lot of people. And our guy John is there, ready to do whatever he can to stop it. Welcome to O.K. Video's look at Superior Sequels.

Just in time for Christmas,  Scream 2  stormed into theatres in 1997, bullying releases like  Titanic  out of its way to a box office haul basically equivalent to that of its predecessor. But does that make it a Superior Sequel? Ryan and Nathan discuss Dewey's moustache, theme song and all-around excellence in this week's episode of O.K. Video, thanks for joining us. If you want to celebrate Dewey with some thoughts or anecdotes, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca You can also tweet moustache grooming tips to us @okvideopodcast  - N Scream 2

Despite Steven Segal's DICEY history, O.K. Video takes a fond look back at Under Siege 2: Dark Territory  in our survey of Superior Sequels. Thanks for joining us. This 90s techno-thriller set on a train has some bright spots and low points and Ryan and Nathan dig through it all, then try to puzzle out David Gordon Green's depth of feeling for Segal's filmography.  If you want to email us a question, ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca will get the job done. We are on Twitter @okvideopodcast and instagram minus the @ symbol. Thanks for Listening -N Under Siege 2: Dark Territory

Just a tad late to commemorate its record-shattering Memorial Day Weekend back in 1997, but still hot and ready to serve, O.K. Video brings you The Lost World: Jurassic Park , one of the few sequels in Sir Steven Spielberg's career. (O.K. Video considers itself a monarchy capable of bestowing Knighthood to filmmakers who have made sufficient "Dope" films in their career). Nathan and Ryan discuss the dinosaur franchise at large and pay respects to Eddie, the hardest working supporting character to be mauled to death in gruesomely unfair fashion. Is this also Spielberg's darkest film since Temple of Doom ? I'm going to say...no. Think about it. Anyway, if you want to email us some questions, ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca will do the trick. Or tweet us @okvideopodcast  Thanks for listening! -N The Lost World: Jurassic Park

Ryan and Nathan take a trip to Kevin Smith's View Askew Universe (the VAU) in this weeks look at Clerks II , a potential Superior Sequel.
