90 Under 90

We're joined by Megan Easter to talk about a movie that is possibly a bit more beloved than its original, at least by this group of podcasters. We're talking "An American Tail: Fievel Goes West" from 1991, NOT directed by Don Bluth (and thus, Don Bluth does not appear in this episode.)

It's a movie that takes "The Blair Witch Project" to the next level technically speaking, but does it hold up as well? Spawning myriad sequels that apparently get way too deep into the lore, "Paranormal Activity" is today's title. One that Dan saw in the theaters (and nearly ruined a sketch comedy show) and one that Jer only saw for the first time a couple years ago.

Sometimes it's important to recognize a comedy's place in history...because that's all it has going for it anymore. "The Kentucky Fried Movie" is a 1977 John Landis-directed sketch movie that's aggressively horny and sometimes downright pornographic. Film at 11:00! And this month on Patreon, in honor of Mother's Day, we're celebrating with one of the worst mothers...

By no means a GREAT movie, "Ladybugs" is one of those titles from our childhood that we'll always kinda like. Starring Rodney Dangerfield and the late Jonathan Brandis, this 1992 movie gets at least a little respect from us!

Dennis Rodman and Dane Cook (together at last?) star in the 1999 action comedy "Simon Sez." It's a movie that raises the question: Is Dennis fucking Rodman a better actor than Michael Jordan?

Happy High Holiday to those that partake! We discuss the anti-marihuana propaganda film "Reefer Madness" from 1936, which would go on to spawn a stage and screen musical of the same name.

Cass Quinn joins the brothers Eden for what Rotten Tomatoes considers to be one of the worst movies ever made: "One Missed Call" from 2008, which currently rocks a whopping 0% score!

Phil Platakis joins us to talk about a movie that was even worse than anyone remembered, despite all of us having seen this movie in our youth. We talk about the 2001 cinematic disaster that is "Corky Romano" directed by one time director Rob Pritts.

In 1971, Monty Python brought the best of their sketches to the states in the form of "And Now For Something Completely Different." It failed to capture the full magic of the original Flying Circus sketches, and Jer and Dan have no trouble dissecting why that is.

Charlie Wein joins us to talk about "The Autopsy of Jane Doe" from 2016. Expect plenty of Brian Cox impressions.

It's a pretty unlucky St. Patrick's Day for the Brothers Eden as they talk about one of the most egregious misuses of a franchise's good name. 'Tis "Leprechaun: Origins" from 2014 which, for some ODD reason is NOT about actual leprechauns.

IMDb's error and Jer's lack of cross-referencing lead us to talk about this week's title "Saving Silverman" from 2001 starring Steve Zahn, Jason Biggs, and Jack Black.  A Comedy Central staple back in the day, does this mid-level comedy hold up over 20 years later?

Joel Schumacher directs this 2002 thriller starring Colin Farrell, which, flimsy as it may be, would perhaps make for a better stage play?  We're talking about "Phone Booth" also starring the voice of Kiefer Sutherland.

A movie whose cast is knocking it out of the park even if the movie didn't light the world on fire.  We talk about a favorite from our childhood: "Dunston Checks In" from 1996, directed by Ken Kwapis and starring Jason Alexander, Eric Lloyd, Rupert Everett and an orangutan.

Jer and Dan have never seen a Rambo movie, so what better place to start than at the very end of the franchise?  We discuss the shockingly recent "Rambo: Last Blood" starring Sylvester Stallone. And over on Patreon this month, we talk about what we consider to be the greatest comedy movie ever made: "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" www.patreon.com/90under90

Jer proves what an ignorant fool he is pretty much right away as the Eden brothers discuss Robert Rodriguez's indie calling card "El Mariachi" from 1992.

Celebrating its 70th anniversary this week, we discuss the 1953 Disney classic "Peter Pan" with guest host Katie Eden. And this month on our Patreon, we'll be discussing "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." www.patreon.com/90under90

The crap comedies continue with 1993's "Mr. Nanny" starring Hulk Hogan in an incredibly challenging role to tackle: a former wrestler.

There was a period in the late 90's and aughts when Disney brought us several live action adaptations of cartoons no one had much affinity for.  They would continue this practice 15 or so years later with their own movies, but before THAT...there was "Inspector Gadget" starring Matthew Broderick and Rupert Everett (AND his face!) Check out our Patreon for our monthly 90 OVER 90 episode: www.p...

The "Westworld" franchise begins HERE with THIS movie written and directed by Michael Crichton and NOT as a book, which seems...almost wrong?  We're talking the 1973 original movie starring James Brolin and Yul Brynner. And over on Patreon, we're talking about the Ted Demme/Johnny Depp collab "Blow."  Check out www.patreon.com/90under90 for all of our bonus content!

Jer and Dan kick off the new year with Sacha Baron Cohen's "Bruno" directed by Larry Charles, the less necessary follow-up to the much more successful "Borat." This month on 90 Over 90, we'll be discussing the 2001 crime drama "Blow" starring Johnny Depp.  Join for only $1 at www.patreon.com/90under90

It's Christmas.  You've earned a little bonus.  Jer and Dan discuss the third entry in the H&K trilogy: "A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas," which is surprisingly good for a third entry/Christmas departure.

On our final episode of 2022, Ken Palmer joins us to talk about what WOULD have been a 90 Under 90 RIGHT NOW episode, if only Jer had been in a better headspace.  "Beavis and Butt-head Do the Universe" (upgrading from just America) in a movie that kinda scores, even if it doesn't feel as cinematic as its predecessor.

Megan Easter joins us to talk about the original, minimally-musical "The Producers" from 1967? '68? It's debatable apparently! Also this month, you can hear our episode on the original Weird Al movie "UHF" in honor of the release of his totally true unexaggerated biopic.  Available exclusively at www.patreon.com/90under90

"Mr. Show with Bob and David" was a great alternative sketch comedy show from the mid 90's.  The spin-off movie "Run Ronnie Run" from 2002, directed by Troy Miller, is not.  So Sam Carr joins us to talk about David Cross's version of Joe Dirt. Check out the "90 Under 90" Patreon!  This month, in honor of the release of "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story," we'll be talking about the 1989...
