Marooned! On Mars With Matt And Hilary

In the thrilling conclusion to our conversation about ALIEN: COVENANT, the final (so far) installment of the ALIEN franchise, Matt, Hilary, and Bill talk about Walter, David, and robots that (mis)quote poetry and Ridley Scott's placement of himself in a line of artists stretching from Milton to Shelley to David Lean. More on empire and settler colonialism, automythopoesis and Old Hollywood, the "perfect" organism, love and disappointment, the diversity of forms and difference, good and bad Christians, science vs. luck, and rudely interrupted shower sex. We'll be back eventually to cover ALIEN VS. PREDATOR, and soon to talk about some books! Thanks for listening!
