In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

Stephen Fry's 7 Deady Sins - I will take each one of the Seven Sins in turn, lay them out on the surgical table and poke, prod, pry and provoke in an attempt to try to anatomise and understand them; I hope and believe it will be, if nothing else, delicious fun and something of a change from the usual run of podcastery.

Ep 139: Phenomena!
Manage episode 498379304 series 2534342
Content provided by Alyce and Laura and Laura Love Star Wars.

If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://ppacc.player.fm/legal.
In Episode 139, hosts Alyce and Laura forgot* what happened in Ahsoka, and Keeve Trennis is all up in her feelings.
- The History of the Mandela Effect and how it relates to Star Wars (via GoodHousekeeping)
- In a follow up to last week’s episode, more about the award-winning dog balls
- Prop Watch! Prop auctions are interesting to us. So we’re gonna talk about it. (via Yahoo)
- Star Wars’ 50th anniversary is coming up… in two years. But Disney wants you to mark your calendar now to make sure you have no conflicts, I guess?
- Maul looks like Maul and live-action Ezra had a shower (via IGN)
- Hopefully everyone who attended the publishing panel at SDCC had fun, but it seemed like the news was uh…. slim pickins.
- Sounds like George Lucas’ museum is gonna be cool as hell (via IGN)
- Movie rumor roundup! Is the guy from Not Another Teen Movie gonna be in Star Wars? Where are things with the Rey movie?
- More Hayden in S2 of Ahsoka, or is everyone reaching?
- If anyone at Hulu asks, Alyce lives in a giant mansion.
- Everything comes full circle with movie ratings
- Recap on Tap: The High Republic goes out with an emotionally-muted bang in the comic, The Beacon. This discussion includes SPOILERS for the comic AND spoilers for Trials of the Jedi. Skip 35:40-46:35 to avoid. Plus, Alyce’s initial, spoiler-free thoughts on The Acolyte: Wayseeker.
Helpful links referenced in this episode:
- Upcoming guest spot alert! Keep an eye on the Rogue Rebels feed for Sal, Alyce and Laura’s review/discussion on The High Republic: Trials of the Jedi!
