In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

It's Christmas in July in the 80s Cult Movie Lap, so it's time to talk about Scrooged, starring Bill Murray! We talk about the tone deaf response from Paramount executives about working on Christmas, get Joe's thoughts on this movie (given that he is famously anti-Christmas), and wonder if this in-movie TV special would re-air every Christmas... or never again. We admire the casting, create a sliding scale to determine how "Christmas-y" this movie is, and debate which F&F family members love Christmas. We ask: would you want to watch your life like this? Our Scrooge hates on Friends, Netflix, and Christmas before Joey makes him name three good things about Christmas.
