  • Episode 136: The Boyfriend School (1990) // Classic 90's rom-com or Lifetime movie of the week?....
    2024/09/10

    You choose.

    Gus (Steve Guttenberg), a nerdy cartoonist recovering from a serious illness, gets a little help from his romance-novelist sister Lizzie (Shelley Long) to reinvent himself into a hunky biker heartthrob to win the affection of journalist Emily (Jami Gertz). We’ll discuss the film’s hilarious makeover montages, romantic hijinks, and why this under-the-radar gem captured the lighthearted spirit of 90s rom-coms.

    Expect plenty of laughs as we talk about Steve Guttenberg’s transformation from lovable geek to irresistible "Lobo Marunga" and the comedic dynamic between the cast. We’ll also delve into the movie’s unique take on romance and the classic "ugly duckling" trope, along with its signature 90s flair—from fashion to flirtation.

  • Episode 135: North (1994) // Is it as bad as people say?
    2024/09/03

    The short answer is no.

    We will break down the unusual plot where young North (Elijah Wood) decides to "divorce" his parents and embarks on a globe-trotting adventure to find new ones. We’ll discuss the film’s blend of fantasy, humor, and life lessons, all wrapped up in a series of zany vignettes featuring an all-star cast, including Bruce Willis, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Dan Aykroyd, and many more.

    Get ready for laughs as we recount North’s encounters with bizarre potential parents, from Hawaiian kings and Texan oil barons to Amish farmers and over-the-top showbiz families. We’ll dive into the film’s satirical take on cultural stereotypes, its surprising cameos, and the sometimes controversial reception it received upon release.

    Join us as we share behind-the-scenes stories, including how the film came to be under the direction of Rob Reiner, the critical backlash it faced, and why it remains a curious piece of 90s cinema. We’ll also debate whether North is a misunderstood gem or a product of its time, providing plenty of laughs and nostalgia along the way.

We’ll discuss the film's edge-of-your-seat action sequences, from the flying cows to the epic finale, and why Twister became a summer blockbuster sensation.

    Get ready for an in-depth discussion on the movie’s memorable moments, including the intense tornado chases, the chaotic flying debris, and that unforgettable drive-in movie scene. We’ll also explore the chemistry between the cast, the film’s depiction of extreme weather phenomena, and how it brought storm chasing into the pop culture spotlight.
