Description
In this episode, I spoke with author Chris Nashawaty about his recent book "The Future Was Now: Madmen, Mavericks, and the Epic Sci-Fi Summer of 1982". In the summer of 1982, eight science fiction films were released within six weeks of one another. E.T., Tron, Star Trek: Wrath of Khan, Conan the Barbarian, Blade Runner, Poltergeist, The Thing, and Mad Max: The Road Warrior changed the careers of some of Hollywood's now biggest names―altering the art of movie-making to this day.
