The Meg
Two decades in the making, The Meg showcases the sheer absurdity of a 75-foot prehistoric shark lurking in the ocean, and this Kaijune we acknowledge that bigger is just always better when it comes to monster movies.Loosely adapted from the novel by Steve Alten, The Meg knows exactly what it is: a fun summer popcorn flick that doesn’t take itself too seriously, delivering PG-13 thrills as the titular Meg terrorises various humans. It emerged as a crowd-pleaser, grossing over half a billion dollars worldwide despite mixed reviews.But there were many false starts for this movie since it was greenlit in the late 90s and the release of Deep Blue Sea in 1999 led to the movie being shelved - the only time Hollywood didn't want a twin films situation! It would languish in development hell, until a partnership with China's Gravity Pictures gave the movie much needed financing, as well as setting the movie off the coast of China.The Meg cleverly invokes nostalgia for classic shark films like Jaws, while carving its own niche as a light-hearted, action-packed adventure that ultimately celebrates the ridiculousness of its premise. It's about the thrill of the chase, the bond of unlikely heroes, and the joy of watching a massive megalodon wreak havoc; just don’t think too hard about the science!Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

(From the Archive) Godzilla (1998)
From the depths of Kaijune comes the King of the Monsters.... GODZILLA!But not the Godzilla many fans were expecting when a US remake was announced in the '90s, and not the first attempt to make a US version of the legendary kaiju.Steve Miner had tried to get a 3D version off the ground in 1983, and then there was the infamous Jan de Bont version in 1994. Both stories are fascinating enough, but always lurking in the background of the 1994 version were Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin.They'd been offered Godzilla in the early '90s but turned it down repeatedly. After the 1994 project imploded due to budgetary concerns, they were offered it again.It would be the combined movies of Armageddon and Deep Impact that changed Emmerich's path, and sent him to accept a US remake of Godzilla, alongside Dean Devlin, with full creative control for the pair.And as we know, full creative control always goes to plan...Episode originally released 8th June 2023Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode.

Three Men and a Baby
When Three Men and a Baby opened on 25th November 1987, few could have predicted that a low-budget remake of a French comedy, shot in Toronto, starring two television actors, a comedy star and a baby girl, would become the highest-grossing film of the year in the US and a genuine turning point in Hollywood history. Yet that is precisely what it did.The film arrived at a specific cultural inflection point. More women were entering the workforce, the feminist movement was reshaping assumptions about domestic labour, and the recession of the early eighties had nudged more fathers into caregiving roles. Against that backdrop, watching Tom Selleck's broad-shouldered leading man coo helplessly over a baby carried real comic charge, and tapped into something the culture was quietly working through: what modern fatherhood might actually look like.But the film's off-screen legacy is arguably more significant than anything on it. Disney in 1983 had nearly gone bankrupt on the catastrophic failure of The Black Cauldron. The creation of Touchstone Pictures and its low-budget, high-concept adult comedies was the rescue plan. Three Men and a Baby was its greatest proof of concept: the studio's first ever $100 million domestic grosser, crowning Disney as the number one studio in Hollywood by the end of 1987. The revenue that film and its Touchstone stablemates generated bought the animation department enough time, talent, and resources to complete The Little Mermaid two years later, and triggered the Disney Renaissance.A film about three hapless bachelors and an abandoned baby, made cheaply and quietly in Canada, may be one of the most consequential comedies Hollywood ever produced.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

Ever After: A Cinderella Story
Few films have done more to reimagine a fairy tale than Ever After: A Cinderella Story, Andy Tennant's 1998 period drama that stripped the magical elements from one of the world's oldest stories and replaced it with real historical characters, and a heroine who rescues herself.Set in Renaissance-era France and shot entirely on location across the Dordogne, the film marked a quiet revolution in the Cinderella canon, arriving at a precise cultural moment between Disney's pastel dominance and the full flowering of girl power that would follow in the late 90s and beyond.The story of Ever After goes from the ancient origins of the Cinderella myth, through the literary transformations of Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, and Rossini's opera, to the cultural watershed of Disney's 1950 animated classic and the Rodgers and Hammerstein television musicals that rewrote what the story could mean for successive generations of young women. Ever After sits in that lineage, and its particular brand of post-feminist revisionism hit hard in the summer of 1998. It broke away from typical fairy tale clichés, offering a fresh take that emphasizes empowerment and self-determination for women in a historical context.Drew Barrymore, working as an unofficial producer, personally cast Anjelica Huston with a phone call invoking their shared Hollywood dynasties, went to bat for a rejected Dougray Scott, and designed the film's emotional core around a character she saw as a manifesto for her own future. For Barrymore, then navigating the transition from dangerous ingénue to bankable leading lady, Danielle de Barbarac was not simply a role, it was who she intended to become.Ever After's place in the broader arc of Cinderella adaptations, its enduring resonance with the generation that grew up with it, leaves it with the everlasting legacy of being one of the best adaptations of the story, loved by viewers, and its cast. Ever After managed to capture the essence of love and resilience, reminding us that true magic lies in our actions and connections with others, not just fairy godmothers and pixie dust.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

Deep Impact vs. Armageddon
In the summer of 1998, Hollywood delivered two versions of the apocalypse within eight weeks of each other, and the story of how that happened is almost as dramatic as either film.Deep Impact, directed by Mimi Leder and released on 8th May, had been in development since the late 1970s, tracing its origins to producers Richard Zanuck and David Brown's desire to remake the 1951 sci-fi film When Worlds Collide. The project was ultimately merged with Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Arthur C. Clarke's The Hammer of God, before Spielberg, occupied with Amistad, handed the director's chair to Leder.What emerged was a deliberately restrained disaster film, one less interested in the mechanics of impact than in the texture of grief: how ordinary people, politicians, astronauts, and estranged families face the end with or without dignity. With scientific consultants including comet co-discoverers Carolyn and Gene Shoemaker, and ILM's groundbreaking digital tsunami, the film earned genuine respect from the astronomical community and grossed a respectable $349 million worldwide on an $80 million budget.Armageddon, released on 1st July under Disney's Touchstone Pictures banner, was a different creature entirely, and was, by most accounts, a direct competitive response to Deep Impact.Michael Bay's film was shot in just sixteen weeks, with unprecedented government and military access, under enormous studio pressure. Where Deep Impact depicted skilled astronomers, Armageddon hired oil drillers and sent them to space. Where Leder's film earned praise for plausibility, Bay's is famously scientifically inaccurate in many ways. Despite this, Armageddon grossed $553 million worldwide, topped the year's global box office, eventually received a Criterion Collection release and four Oscar nominations. Deep Impact did not.Both hinge on sacrifice, on families torn apart by cosmic indifference, on the question of who gets saved and who doesn't. Both were shaped by real cosmic events, which shook the scientific community and governments into action and Hollywood into a race to dramatise the unthinkable. One film aimed for the gut; the other aimed for the conscience.That Armageddon won commercially while Deep Impact won critically, and that Mimi Leder's career faltered, while Michael Bay built a franchise empire, tells you not just about the summer of 1998, but about which kinds of spectacle Hollywood, and audiences, are willing to reward.Everything wrong with Armageddon – Everyday Science StuffSupport Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

Dante's Peak vs. Volcano
In 1997, two movies decided to erupt onto cinema screens at the same time, literally and figuratively. The chaotic rivalry between Dante's Peak and Volcano is one of the biggest examples of Hollywood's twin movies phenomenon, and while both were created organically, their rivalry would lead to condensed timelines and moved release dates, and a lasting legacy of "which 1997 volcanic eruption movie is your favourite?"For its part, Dante's Peak attempted to be more scientifically accurate than its Californian counterpart, showcasing a volcanic threat through a small-town lens, taking inspiration from the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens.Volcano, on the other hand, was filmed on location in Los Angeles, and showed the impossible geological event of a volcano suddenly appearing at the La Brea Tar Pits.Dante's Peak prioritized practical effects, while Volcano went for mostly CG lava flowing down Wilshire Boulevard.There are remarkable similarities between the two: Both centre on a scientist who reads the warning signs correctly and is dismissed by skeptical authority figures. Both embed the disaster within a tentative romance between that scientist and a civic official. Both have children in mild peril. Both have characters that meet untimely and excruciatingly painful ends. Both climax with the eruption vindicating everything the expert said from the start. And most importantly, both ensure the dog survives!The finished films feel like two productions that started from the same idea and then diverged; Dante's Peak going intimate and procedural, Volcano going maximalist and fantastical. Dante's Peak and Volcano were the product of one of Hollywood's most feverish production races, and the competition between them shaped both films in ways that went far beyond schedules and box office returns.The Geology P.A.G.E.: Geological Movie Review of Dante's Peak - OverviewSupport Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

M3GAN
The final episode of AIpril, M3GAN arrived in January 2023 as a modest Blumhouse horror release, and promptly became one of the most talked-about horror comedies of the year. On a budget of $12 million, it grossed over $180 million worldwide, spawned a franchise, and put a ten-second hallway dance sequence into the permanent vocabulary of internet culture.Director Gerard Johnstone insisted from the outset on a practical-effects-first approach, and supervising puppeteer Adrien Morot built a suite of six or seven animatronic puppets capable of different ranges of movement — some with articulated eyes and heads, others with fully computerised motion control. The defining creative rule was simple: animatronic when still, performer when moving. That performer was Amie Donald, a ten-year-old New Zealand national dance champion and brown belt in karate, who wore a static silicone mask on set that was later replaced in post-production with a digitally animated face by Wētā Workshop. The result is a character who occupies the uncanny valley not as a technical failure but as a deliberate aesthetic strategy; M3GAN is unsettling precisely because you can never quite be sure what you're looking at.M3GANs design decision had downstream consequences the production could not entirely have anticipated: audiences, particularly on TikTok and in queer communities, embraced M3GAN as a style icon. Universal's chief marketing officer Michael Moses identified the hallway dance sequence, performed by Amie Donald, and utilised TikTok dance trends and built the campaign around letting it spread organically rather than manufacturing a formal challenge.M3GAN is a genuinely well-crafted piece of genre filmmaking, with a practical effects philosophy rooted in old-school puppetry and a central performance of remarkable physical intelligence, which makes it fun and accessible, but also threads together anxieties about outsourced parenting, emotional dependency on technology, and the ethics of designing companion AI for children — themes that give the film considerably more thematic density than its campy surface might suggest.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

Her (2013)
This AIpril, what is love, if not AI persevering? Spike Jonze's Her asks that question with such sincerity and precision that it never feels like a provocation; it feels like it's holding up a mirror to today's society.Her has become of one of the most quietly radical and prophetic films of the 21st century: a love story with no villain, no third act betrayal, just the aching reality of two beings in love, but evolving at different speeds.Released in 2013, Her imagined AI companions with emotional intelligence, fluid personalities, and an unsettling capacity to outgrow the humans who depend on them, years before anyone had heard of a large language model. But Her was never really about technology. It was about loneliness, intimacy, and the stories we tell ourselves about connection.From Jonze's years-long development of the script, rooted in the breakdown of his own marriage, and an early-2000s encounter with primitive chatbot technology, to the radical decision to recast Samantha Morton with Scarlett Johansson deep into post-production, this is the story of how a film in the 2010s about artificial intimacy became about actual intimacy in the 2020s.‘I felt pure, unconditional love’: the people who marry their AI chatbots | The GuardianSupport Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?
