We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

In March I think of Green and with that said, it makes sense to compliment our last episode of The Mask with another crazy and wacky character in green DROP DEAD FRED. Who didn't want an imaginary friend when they were little and if you didn't, this movie watching as a child definitely made you want an instant best friend. Watching this as an adult now, whoa, what a change and that is where this conversation stems from. Such a serious approach when taking all of this in, Suzy and I couldn't help but dive real deep into what was going on with Elizabeth and determine if this is a universe with imaginary friends or is this a metaphor for mental illness, trauma, depression, or maybe even both.
"There are no such thing as a guilty pleasure film. F%$# the haters and be proud of your taste in film."
Enjoy this episode of Movie Geek & Proud. See you at the movies...Someday
