Old Movies For Young StonersS4E4.2 Gene Hackman Tribute feat. Lennie Loftin w/ The Quick and the Dead (1995)Gene Hackman left us in shocking and tragic circumstances on February 18, 2025. With his signature intensity, he may be one of the least stony actors of all time, but he was one of the best. To pay tribute to him we have his trippiest movie this side of CISCO PIKE (1971) with the quick-cut, dolly-shot, bullet-hole-cam madness of Sam Raimi's THE QUICK AND THE DEAD (1995).
In this tribute to Sergio Leone's ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST (1968), Gene Hackman delivers one of his most villainous performances as old west tyrant John Herod, who draws every shootist to his desert town...2025-05-0849 minSAFCOcast - a Traveller RPG PodcastSAFCOcast 38: Return from the Event HorizonWe’re back!

More specifically, we discuss and ponder about what makes a Traveller adventure a Traveller adventure.
