Is Vine Cinema?Well, it is? Actually, what is "cinema" anyway? CORRECTIONS: At one point in the video, the film “The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat Station” has been incorrectly labeled as “Captain America: Civil War.” We apologize for the error.

For All Mankind: Is the Moon Landing Cinema?Yes it is. It was a documentary, shot on location. But what did that One Giant Leap actually do for "mankind" anyway? This is not a "debunking" video, but a review of a Criterion-released documentary. Conspiracy theories about the landing will be treated with all the respect that conspiracy theories deserve. Which is none ???? CORRECTION: MOON by Duncan Jones is dated 2001, when it came out in 2009. Whoops. Moon Landings Faked?

STARSHIP TROOPERS, Part 1: HEINLEINLISTEN UP YOU APES! This is the first of a three part series. CORRECTIONS: - Heinlein's Navy isn't all female, the positions of starship pilot were prioritized for women. - during the lead-in to the Fanon part I say "Juan Rico" when I meant to refer to Ramon Magsaysay-likely the inspiration for the character - I fail to mention that the 3rd act of Stranger in a Strange Land is about Smith founding a sex cult - I also don't mention the 2nd alien race from the book, The Skinnies, because they seemed pretty irrelevant to the topic - I didn't show enough of Michael's cats. So sorry. More information to follow. DISMISSED. - STARSHIP TROOPERS, Part 3: KALLGRENE8

Mr. Burns: a Post-Electric Video EssayA breakdown of the themes and apocalyptic implications of Anne Washburn's 2012 play, "Mr. Burns: A Post Electric Play" and why this wasteland passion play shows both the triumph of humanity over adversity, and that maybe we need to end The Simpsons before The Simpsons ends us.
