This week we investigate The Brothers Strause's "Aliens vs. Predator Requiem" (2007) with Warren Chao (Pop Culture Party People), and search for the scene at its center.This is a podcast about movies, and the scenes that make them special. Usually on our show, we explore a film we love, a new release, or ask our guests to bring a movie they can’t wait to talk about. But this week, and throughout the summer, we’re devoting our show to 20th Century Fox’s Alien Franchise.Show notes: (all timestamps are approximate)
