90 Under 90

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/25/2020 Jer and Dan are joined IN STUDIO with their closest friend Kevin Kirchman to discuss a movie that is "Pure Kevin" in the best ways possible.  We're discussing the  ultra-low budget horror drama "Coherence" written and directed by James Ward Byrkit.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/23/2020 Since no one asked, Dan shares his assessment on two overinflated forces in the entertainment world: Titanic and U2.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/18/2020 On what would have been their late father's 60th birthday, Jer and Dan are without a guest host to talk about one of Ron's favorite movies and whether it would still hold up for him today.  So welcome to 1996's "Joe's Apartment" written and directed by John Payson and starring Jerry O'Connell, Megan Ward, and Robert Vaughn.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/11/2020 We reach a new milestone on our show this week.  For the first time ever, we watch a movie so bad that Dan completely abandoned taking notes!  We discuss the doozy of an adaptation "Gretel & Hansel" directed by Osgood Perkins.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/09/2020 Today we introduce a new segment we will be dropping periodically between episodes.  We present to you "Since No One Asked," a series of mini-sodes dedicated to our unsolicited opinions on Hollywood. When the Snyder Cut was announced for HBO Max just a couple weeks ago, fanboys and fangirls were ecstatic to learn that Zack Snyder's "Justice League" will finally...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 06/04/2020 Madalyn breaks away from her rom com roots on our show to talk about a PG-13 horror movie that is surprisingly effective, albeit a bit familiar and flawed.  We're talking about the 2016 movie "Lights Out" directed by David F. Sandberg and starring Teresa Palmer, Gabriel Bateman, Alexander DiPersia and Maria Bello.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 05/28/2020 We are joined by our THIRD new guest host in THREE weeks!  We chat with Neal Fischer (Triviality Podcast) to talk about the 2004 remake of "Walking Tall" directed by Kevin Bray and starring The Rock and Johnny Knoxville.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 05/21/2020 We are joined by another new guest host this week!  Charlie Wein Skypes in to talk about one of his all time favorite movies (despite a few elements not aging as well).  We're discussing "Mean Creek" from 2004, directed by Jacob Aaron Estes and starring Rory Culkin, Josh Peck and Trevor Morgan.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 05/14/2020 We're joined by new guest host Ken Palmer to talk about a movie that certainly isn't very good, but one that is beloved by all of us.  We covered the first movie in our first season, so we're talking about "Problem Child 2" directed by Brian Levant and starring the late John Ritter and Michael Oliver.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 05/07/2020 Killer Klowns From Outer Space? Holy shit. Mike brings this movie to the table at the request of a dude he worked with over 15 years ago.  John Vernon is really the only recognizable performer in this B-movie cult classic satire directed by Stephen Chiodo. (You know. Of the Chiodo Brothers.)

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 04/30/2020 Patrick Lewandowski is back to once again jump into the middle of a series we haven't actually started.  This week we discuss the live action/animation hybrid "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel" directed by Betty Thomas and starring the unrecognizable voice talent of Justin Long, Amy Poehler, Anna Faris, Christina Applegate and featuring the live action p...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 04/23/2020 Not many actors have their own film genre, but Jason Statham sure as shit does!  Katie Binkley is back to talk about Transporter 2, a movie that's as fun as it is ridiculous.  Directed by Louis Leterrier and also starring that shitbird Matthew Modine.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 04/16/2020 Social distancing provided Kevin Kirchman with the opportunity to watch a movie he's been putting off for quite some time.  Now he's back on the show to talk about the lower tier John Hughes romp "Career Opportunities" directed by Bryan Gordon and starring Frank Whaley (for some reason) and Jennifer Connelly. This episode is NOT sponsored by Target, but ma...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 04/09/2020 In 1995, Chris Farley and David Spade made a modern comedy classic in "Tommy Boy".  In 1996, they made another movie. Madalyn Mattsey joins us via Skype to talk about "Black Sheep" as we continue to social distance.  If only we could have distanced ourselves from this poor man's version of "Tommy Boy".  Penelope Spheeris directed this bomb when she wa...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 04/04/2020 Look, in 1969 Americans didn't have access to the internet or the collective knowledge of all of humanity at their fingertips, so they relied on self-help books like David Reuben's "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex *But Were Afraid to Ask" to guide them.  And like all great works of literature, a feature film adaptation was inevitable.  And w...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 03/10/2020 Kaitlin Eden is finally back on the show to talk about a movie we've been saving for two years!  It's finally time we discuss the cult classic "Zoolander" starring Ben Stiller, Owen WIlson and Will Ferrell, directed by Stiller himself.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 03/12/2020 We are joined by our newest guest host Casey Freund to talk about the prototypical 80's cop movie (and one of Casey's all time favorite genres) "Cobra" starring Sylvester Stallone and Brigitte Nielsen.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 03/05/2020 Katie is back to talk about a movie from one of her favorite genres: a good old fashion Western.  But does this movie hold up when compared to other modern Westerns?  "Slow West" is the story of a young Scotsman in search of his lady love.  Directed by John Maclean and starring Michael Fassbender, Ben Mendelsohn, and some kid named Kodi Smit-McPhee.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 02/27/2020 For some reason considered to be a cult classic, this week we sit down with Tom Zarnowski to talk about the 2001 bomb "Bubble Boy" directed by Blair Hayes and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Marley Shelton, Swoosie Kurtz, Danny Trejo and Verne Troyer.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 02/20/2020 Well ain't this appropriate? It's our 101st episode, so naturally we had to talk about the 1961 Disney animated classic "One Hundred and One Dalmatians."  Featuring what may be the best villain of the classic Disney period and the first use of the xerox animation method they would implement for the next 20 years or so, the movie was made during the last stretch...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 02/13/2020 It's our 100th official episode of 90 Under 90 this week, which means absolutely nothing for a show based on the number 90! Patrick Lewandowski returns to the show to talk about the elusive "Revenge of the Nerds" directed by Jeff Kanew, a movie that is NOWHERE to be found (as of this recording).  Back in 1984, before nerd culture was all the rage, nerds were th...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 02/06/2020 Madalyn Mattsey is back on the show to talk about a rom com that none of us have seen before, quite possibly because it's simply awful.  Director Gary Winick leads the charge for the annoying (but APPARENTLY super hot) Kate Hudson and the always amazing Anne Hathaway.  Featuring supporting roles by an unlikable Chris Pratt, a show-stealing Kristen Johnston...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 01/30/2020 Hey kids! Remember 2002? Well, in case you've forgotten and need a large dose of '02 nostalgia, we present this week's title: the Jake Kasdan-directed "Orange County" starring Colin Hanks, Jack Black, and Schuyler Fisk.  This Mike White-written comedy helped catapult Hanks and Black (while leaving Fisk to figure it out on her own), and features a deep pool of c...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 01/23/2020 Kevin Kirchman returns to talk about a cult classic that all of us hold dear to our heart.  It's the movie that launched the careers of Brendan Fraser, Pauly Shore, and...I guess director Les Mayfield?  You don't have to be a cro-magnon man to see the writing on the wall.  We're talking about 1992's "Encino Man" starring Sean Astin, Fraser, and the We...

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 01/16/2020 A new year means new guest hosts!  Jer and Dan welcome Phil Platakis on his inaugural show.  Originally intending to feature a completely different movie that has mysteriously disappeared over the ages, the guys instead shift their focus to the 2007 CG animated (and somehow still in-continuity with the live action movies) "TMNT" written and directed b...
