Ridley Scott’s Film Blade Runner, 1982 erschienen, spielt im November 2019 – und ist somit in der Gegenwart angekommen. Eine zentrale Problematik des Films: Die unheimliche Ähnlichkeit von Mensch und Roboter – ein Thema, mit dem sich auch die Wissenschaft aktuell intensiv befasst.
Julia Grillmayr spricht mit Johann Cas vom Institut für Technikfolgenabschätzung und der Soziologin und Robotikforscherin Astrid Weiss über Zukunftsvisionen, Robotik und darüber, wie Mensch und Technik zusammen funktionieren.

This episode has Jonathan (@berkreviews), Corey (@coreyrstarr), and Michael (@servermonkey) joined with Matt Hudson (@wiwt_uk) and Craig Sybert (@MusicMusing_) to draft the 2018 Summer movies. This works a lot like a fantasy football draft where each person picks one movie for five rounds that will represent their team. Each player earns points for their movies based on the Domestic Summer Box Office from Boxofficemojo.com and the movie's Metascore from Metacritic.com used as a percent. We drop the excess zeroes to keep the point totals relatively simple.

The second episode of our February theme of Romantic Comedies continues with the 1993 classic Sleepless in Seattle. Neither Corey Starr (@coreyrstarr) nor Jonathan Berk (@berkreviews) had seen this, at least not as adults, so it made sense to add it to the list. The film is directed by Nora Ephron and stars Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan, and Ross Malinger with some strong support from Bill Pullman and Rosie O'Donnell. Both were surprised at how the story unfolds in this film and mainly enjoyed it. But to find out exactly how much...
