Xtinction Agenda

Xtinction Agenda isn"t for everyone. It"s a book club and a movie club and a place for people to talk TV and comic books. But nothing too new. It"s a rough place where tired old dads tackle pop culture artifacts of the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s (mostly). Not a lot of hand-holding as a consequence. These are not introductions to pop culture but discussions about it. As such, we expect the audience to have some degree of experience. Basically then, if you"re a hotdog and you"re looking for a mustache

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/02/13

Why do you believe something? Ask yourself. Ask yourself about light. Ask yourself about light asking about light. Why do you believe? What is it, that underlying certainty? Is that love?

Garth Ennis - The Punisher MAX #37-49

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/02/07

Love walks in the desert. Love holds your hand. Love has missile lock. Love means taking revenge. Love, the mother of all bombs, is a mirror, looking back at the horror you might have been.

The Matrix

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/01/31

Thinking about how the red pill/blue pill metaphor was co-opted by racists and shitheads, the blame has to be laid at the feet of David Icke, doesn't it? If he wasn't the first to steal the idea, his online and in-person popularity must have opened the door for all sorts of peddlers of conspiracy ideation. From the Matrix to reptilian infiltrators to FBI crime statistics and great replacement theories. A shameful trajectory that dishonours this great film.

2026/01/24

Exit the generals, spooks, and games of chicken missile. Enter horror. The things that man does to woman. The things that power does to us all.

Jet Li - Fist of Legend

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/01/18

Little disrespect to Gordon Chan in the title of this episode, I admit. Jet Li did not direct this one. But, really, no one showed up to this event for Gordon Chan. He did a good job, don't get me wrong. But this is a Jet Li movie. And what a Jet Li movie it is.... "So, it's about energy. But tell me something, does a rock have as much energy as an opponent would?" [Slices a leaf floating in air with hand]

Yuen Woo-ping - Tai Chi Master

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/01/09

Witness the film that PROVES that George Lucas traveled into the future in order to steal the secrets of martial arts success. He brought it back to the past and profited. With his ferocious nature, he bent the fabric of space/time, all so that Jet Li could become Luke Skywalker. From then to before and now to now.

Tsui Hark - Once Upon a Time in China

Xtinction Agenda ·

2026/01/03

Hinged wooden tripod flashes, fire capturing flame, the fall, the blurred chaos of love and family and loss, a trouble-making box that, once opened, refuses to hide its promise, bodies be damned. "Whenever there's trouble, we Chinese suffer."

Shane Black - Iron Man 3

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/30

Aristocrats and royalty wear armour and carry swords. They buy and sell what they need and lie about the rest. Our hero was once on track to aristocracy but gave it up in a fit of conscience and a brush with mortality. Not so our villain. Like all established royalty, he wants to sit upon a throne of fear and desire. "You know what keeps going through my head? Where's my sandwich?"

Alan Moore - Watchmen #4

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/27

Gender and Apocalypse. Hear me out. Laurie's mom pushed her into it, right? And Jon, that guy was pushed around by pops so badly, he didn't even have an 'h'. Both waltz around like binary stars. But neither collapses. Instead, centre lost, they hurtle outwards, yin and yang, and then back together. Up until the end. "I--I'm scared. I feel like there's big invisible things all around me."

Garth Ennis - The Punisher MAX #13-24

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/22

The gloves removed hit the floor like lead, puncturing lungs, bleeding red, untold bodies left for dead. All this, despite the concussive rounds, remained unsaid, silent infrared exploding heads. The gloves removed hit the floor. The world changed forevermore. "Roth, don't get sentimental on me, okay?"

Stanley Kubrick - Fear and Desire

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/18

Why should we not gamble, we at the bottom whose lives are without glory? "Well, we have nothing to lose but our futures."

Adrian Lyne - Jacob's Ladder

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/15

Behold the rattling swaying snake that chases and swerves along the spine, from shakra station to shakra station towards the eye, dropping passengers, like memories, at the end of the line, where darkness-light divine incinerates the lonely weeping mind. "This shit's something else."

Vertigo-Era Weird War Tales

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/12/06

Oh God, don't let those harsh flames and sleepless nights touch me. Don't let them destroy my world. Don't let that grim, waiting horror come upon my life. Let all those ghosts live elsewhere, away from me. Let me have peace. "New toys are coming!"

curious object in my hand, woman/teenager gone, bizarre instrument foreign land, disappearing liaison; far-off frozen sand, I demand save me from this isle of man. "Just shadows in the fog."

Doug Moench - Batman: Red Skies - Part Two

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/11/30

Incremental loss unnoticed. Ignored. Red slurpee disaster. Bedside love revealed. Dance club heat enjoyed. Man lost in hurt. Desire given wide berth. "No amount of study or research can stop whatever it is that's destroying the sky...."

American Ninja

Bright bright James Dean daylight katana blade fight, slash flip throw all in plain sight, machine gun bursts, explosions galore, man oh man, do I want more. "Listen to what I'm saying. With your skills, we could make some easy money."

Frank Miller - Daredevil #174-177

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/11/14

Frank heaves the dusty, splintering crate from the flatbed of the truck. He breathes weakly, his body skinny as a chicken bone. Never been good at anything else, he thinks, sweating in the New York heat. No one who counts notices the daring daylight theft. "I can see it!"

Chuck Norris - The Octagon

Xtinction Agenda ·

2025/11/08

Hair-soaked, standing before the bag, he is an unimposing sharpness, a body forged to figure and spin and strike. Inside, his red intuition whispers and questions. Something has long haunted his life. Black sheet ghosts of the past. "That's the kind of girl I'd like to settle down with, pretty but not too pretty." Note: For a moment, Doc James confused Karen Carlson with Carol Bagdasarian. He feels badly about this.
