the Periodic Table of Awesome Podcast - Cult Classic Megaforce
Season 10 Episode 423
Megaforce
From the deepest darkest corners of the 1980s comes a film that most will never have heard of… And for pretty good reason: it’s ridiculously cheesy, utterly misogynistic, completely ridiculous and it may well be the reason camping chain Kathmandu is going out of business: because its just THAT camp! But it’s Dion’s cult cinema choice, and its hard to look past its godawful costumes and insane vehicle designs… But if you do you’ll find something quite fascinating: you’ll find te core text that informed such properties as G.I.Joe, MASK, The A-Team and in later years Team America: World Police.
The movie is called Megaforce and it is the absolute definition of cult cinema. some will love it, many will hate it. but it’s sure got something to say.
All of the team are here, though some more begrudgingly than others and Peta’s “But Why’s?” are so numerous and loud, that we though we’d actually broken her.

As always, a huge thumbs up with a kiss to those great guys and begrudging gals who join in with the conversation on the Twitch stream, live each Tuesday night at 7:30pm AEDT. And an especially huge thanks to any of the generous motor biking mad-men and buggy driving crazies who are kind enough to support us by smashing a tip in our jar via Ko-Fi, or subscribing on twitch… every bit helps us to keep the bikes fueled up and the skin-tight bodysuits polished….
If you feel so inclined drop us a sub we really love them, The more subby mc-sub-faces we get, the more Emotes You get!
