Description

Welcome back film fans! This is episode 98 of Not A Bomb, the podcast where we reexamine movies that flopped at the box office or were panned by the critics. On this week’s show, Troy and Brad are once again joined by John Nance to discuss Walt Disney’s first PG film - The Black Hole.What do you get when you mix Star Wars with a disaster film? You get one of the weirdest movies from the House of Mouse with an A+ cast and a D- script. You also get robots with googly eyes and the love child of Darth Vader and a Cylon (lots of sci-fi references in that sentence). The gang reminiscences about their favorite live-action Disney films, sleeping with your multiple-universe self, the art of matte paintings, and the lack of true science in most science fiction films.Timestamps Intro (01:00)Favorite Live Action Disney Films (6:17)Box office results and Critical Response (21:43)Behind the Camera (28:21)In Front of the Camera (32:29)The Black Hole Discussion (46:17)Is it a bomb: (105:01)Outro (114:09)The Black Hole is directed by Gary Nelson and stars Maximilian Schnell, Anthony Perkins, Robert Forster, Joseph Bottoms, Yvette Mimieux, Ernest Borgnine, Roddy McDowall, Slim Pickens, and Tom McLoughlin.
