 Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:45:50

This week we are discussing "Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country", which is the last movie with the original cast and our first Star Trek sequel. I hope we don't piss off Trekkies with our lack of knowledge.  So grab yourself some Romulan ale and listen to us discuss Klingons being bald, the lack of seatbelts in the future, Kirk fighting Kirk, the political and racial undertones in the movie, Kurtwood Smith looking like a dog, and so much more.   This is a video review you can watch at sequelsonly.com/startrek6 The next sequel has us finally doing the boxing sequel we always wanted to do (sorry Teen Wolf Too), well maybe not exactly the sequel in the franchise we REALLY wanted.  I am talking about Rocky V, you know the one where Rocky loses all his money because he had a crooked accountant and his voice reverts to Rocky 2.  I guess money equals better speech. For this, I got to interview Cinematographer Steven Poster.  Throughout his career, Steven worked as a cinematographer and camera operator which had him working on everything from Strange Brew to Blade Runner to Big Top Pee-Wee to Rocky V to Baseketball to Donnie Darko to even Maddona’s "Like a Prayer" video.  Great chat.
