I Remember Liking That Movie
We chose a movie we haven’t seen in decades. I mean, we’re talking 20 to 30 years. First, we examine the box office, the poster, the trailer, and our wildly inaccurate memories of this long-lost relic. Then we watch it again and review it. Sometimes it still slaps. Sometimes it faceplants. Hard.

Send us a text Remember Die Hard, the perfect Christmas Action Movie? Well, it had a brother called Die Harder, and it too was a Christmas Action Movie.

Send us a text Remember Jaws 3 from 1983? We remember this technical marvel from the 80s as being completely awesome. But seeing that the biggest argument between Jaws fans is which film is the worst, Jaws 3 or Jaws 4, what do we know?

Send us a text Do you remember 2011's The Thing? We do. We remember it wasn't as good as the 1982 version but we remember liking it. It takes place in Antarctica, Just like the 82 version.

The Thing (1982) Does This 80s Cult Classic Still Hold Up Today? 29.08.2025 1:17:42
Send us a text Do you remember The Thing from 1982? We do, sort of. We remember that this movie was reviewed unfavorably by critics and audiences back in the day. Then it became a cult classic. We haven't seen it in a while, but we remember Kurt Russell trying to figure out who is human and who is the alien. We remember an abundance of gore and fantastic, practical effects.

Send us a text Remember Critters? The "Not A Gremlins Rip-off" but the best "Gremlins Rip-off".

Can...

Send us a text Remember "Predator" starring 80s Action Hero Arnold Schwarzenegger? This was a childhood favorite that was rented on the regular from the local video store when hanging out with friends. From what we remember, this was the definition of 80s Sci-Fi Action.
