Sunday Pick....William Gibson v. Stanley Kubrick.

My favourite USian independent political podcasters and longtime single-shingle bloggers extraordinare, Driftglass and Bluegal, have a (relatively) new offshoot, spin-off non-poli pod.

It's called 'Science Fiction University' wherein they pair a different SciFi book and movie based each episode based on a theme.

This week it's William Gibson's 'Neuromancer' and Stanley Kubrick's (and Arthur C. Clark's kinda/sorta) 2001'.

Dig it!

Can you guess the theme that binds?....I couldn't either, except to wonder if maybe they were going to have Keir Dullea  morph into an old man version of Mr. Gibson's Case...But I was totally wrong about that.
Speaking of Mr. Dullea...I re-watched Paperback Hero not long ago and it actually almost held-up...Tube skates and all.
