  • 405: RoboCop (1987)
    Jul 30 2025
    Freeze scum! On today's all-new episode of pcmc, host, Mike Bongiorno, is joined once again by friend of the pod, Peter Marsh. Today Mike and Pete are discussing the 1987 dystopian classic RoboCop. A movie that's as funny as it is exciting, and as smart as it is dumb. The guys love this movie and gush about all their favorite scenes and characters. The guys also compare RoboCop to Superman (2025), which is in some ways the polar opposite approach to superhero storytelling.

  • 404: Dark City (1998)
    Jul 23 2025
    Sleep now! On today's all-new episode of pcmc, host, Mike Bongiorno, is joined once again by friend of the pod, Peter Marsh. Mike and Pete sat down to discuss the spooky and fun cult classic Dark City (1998). Dark City is a late 90s mind-bendy scifi about false realities. It is very much a cousin to The Matrix and eXistenZ. Like the film itself, this episode of pcmc gets deep and philosophical. If you like this episode, check out episode "387: The Crow (1994)", where Mike and Bill discuss another dark film by the same director as Dark City.
