This is a wild one. We’re joined by House of the Dragon S3 director Loni Peristere and the creator of John Wick, Derek Kolstad! We cover Lee Marvin’s 1967 classic, Point Blank! Other topics include a S3 HotD update, that one time when Loni REINVENTED modern sci-fi visual effects with his revolutionary approach on Firefly (and then Battlestar Galactica!), and creating a legendary modern action hero.
