So you guys liked Pandorum? I think that’s a hell of an underrated movie. I’m pretty bummed out that it did so bad considering they had a trilogy planned.
Spencer Fornaciari

Yeah, I thought Pandorum was a fun film. It is sad it didn’t get more exposure. I think it was a tough film to advertise though, very difficult everything that was going on into a two minute trailer.

I hadn’t hurt that it was planned to be a trilogy, that is crazy to think about. Never give up on it though, they are making another Chronicles of Riddick film and that series looked dead there for many years.

Yeah, I think they were going to do a prequel and then a sequel to the original movie. The screenwriter wrote some of his ideas on his website for it and it seemed pretty cool.
Spencer Fornaciari

Generally I’m not a huge fan of prequels since you know where everything ends, but that could’ve been a good story since so much has happened before the movie began.

It is funny though that everything is set as a “trilogy” though. Nothing can be designed with two films in mind…or four…always seems to be three.

Another wonderful sow from you guys. Great how you manage to focus now and again on the smaller actors rather than just the A-List. This Dennis Quaid show was a great trip down memory lane with films like Innerspace. . Great work, keep it up!!!!

Breaks my heart that when talking Dennis Quaid that you skipped over The Big Easy. That was probably his highest profile leading man role and ever since it’s made me have impure thoughts about Ellen Barkin. Love it.
Spencer Fornaciari

To be fair we have to cut down his filmography to about 10 films to keep it flowing so there are definitely important films that we leave off. That being said I can’t say The Big Easy left much of an impression on me, but maybe I’ll revisit it now.
