Welcome to The Omniplex! We are your hosts Austin, Albert, and Zephyr, here to show you a world of films and culture with guests, topical discussion, and celebration of our favorite mediums. Come on in, we're open!

OPX 14: Meanwhile in Pepperland..

Pepperland is open! This episode we turn to a unique animated classic starring (sort of) The Beatles. From the psychedelic style to personal influences to music, to the ill-fated, ill-concieved cancelled 2009 remake, we take a deep dive into the universe of Yellow Submarine!

You can find all the leaked test footage of the cancelled 2009 remake here. It’s… quite something.

OPX 13: CoVid: Delta Force

Ugghhh… Welcome to the… FIFTH… Covid watch cast, where we spill on what we’ve watched in the quarantine. In this one, we’re a tad more pissed off, but still going and absorbing media to cope. We talk everything from Marvel to Soderbergh to Columbo to Netflix reality dating shows, to The Faculty, it’s a WIDE range. So get yourself vaxxed if you haven’t (especially now that the Pfeizer vaccine is officially FDA approved), mask up for others’ protection, and stay safe out there everyone.

OPX 12: With Pride Part II, Beyond June

The Omniplex is open! We’re coming at you with Pride a little late this year, but with the question: why shouldn’t it go beyond June? With that in mind this week we talk themes of representation, who gets to play queer characters onscreen, and what is gender anyway? So sit back and enjoy this extension of Pride Month.

Opening Monologue by Zephyr. You can read the full transcript with source links here.

OOTS 6: Alien Ant Farm‽ (Braindead)

Why did it have to be ants? Welcome to this, our 6th meeting of the Order. This week we will be squirming at the brain-infesting bugs of the CBS 2016 political satire Braindead. Listen as, with Max’s help, we navigate the craziness of mind control ants (while Max attempts to fight off some ants of his own, if you know what we mean). Also join us as we recount the D&D exploits of our party,  P.U.R.P.L.E. as we start a new campaign and face almost certain death.

You can watch Braindead on Paramount+ (which only has 12 of the 13 episodes as of this posting) or free with commercials and in full on Tubi.

P.U.R.P.L.E. intro/outro music “Medieval Kombat” by stantough on Youtube. Max/Theo Bard Kombat remix by Albert Wiltfong.

OOTS 5: Jesk? (What We Do in the Shadows)

Velcome! Ve invite you in to this, the fifth meeting of.. the order. This episode we venture into the world of the FX comedy vampire series created by Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, What We Do in the Shadows. More than any other series we’ve covered thus far, we uh… guys, we geek out over this one. Be prepared for us to bounce around indiscriminately from episode to episode. We also go on a nice tangent on the rules of death in tv and movies and Soap Opera logic. And our latest commercial break will make you feel like a QUEEN.

Watch Drama Bug here!

Zephyr, Austin, and Al dig into their playlists as try out some of their favorite bands’ more experimental works. Come on the first of many musical journeys with us!

OOTS 4: Purple Pepis? (WandaVision)

This, our fourth session of The Order of the Snoot, has begun! This week Tab, Al, and a VERY active Max take a peek at WandVision, Marvel’s first Disney+ direct-to-MCU tie-in show. (Do NOT ask us to dissect that all those qualifiers, we’re begging you..) Our conversation takes us from 90’s nostalgia (aka the best nostalgia), to arguing over the complexities of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, to the fact that DVD’s can’t be that old (they are), and really just lamenting over the passage of time in general. Come for the Wanda, stay for the sexy commercial break!

OPX 10: Only Millennium Kidz Know!


Ready for some semi-recent nostalgia? (We like to think it’s semi-recent since the era we’re covering is technically in this millennium, but GOD, just humor us..) This week at the Omniplex, we’re covering the strange transitional era between 1996 and 2006. We examine the trends as well as the ups and downs of each. So strap in for this wild Disney ride (a few of which were made into movies) through an age of sequels, remakes, book films, and tv adaptations.
