In this episode of the show we are opening our May triptych of JCVD collaborations with Peter Hyams and we begin our deliberations by travelling back in time to 1994 to talk about Timecop. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about Van Damme's drive to establish himself as an A-list action star, Ron Silver's villainous take owing a lot to Blue Steel and Peter Hyams leaning into inspirations drawn from James Cameron and Ridley Scott. We also talk about reasons why you want to put a wall in front of your time machine on rails, doing splits in the kitchen, how a police officer could afford a massive mansion, or how it seems that watching VR porn at work is not a firing offense in this version of the future.
Tune in and enjoy!
