Revenge of the 90s: A Movie Podcast

In 1995, the James Bond franchise went in a new, modern direction with 'GoldenEye,' which served as the first - and best - of Pierce Brosnan's four movies as everyone's favorite secret agent. This one really had it all - a great Bond, a great theme, an insane (and insanely named) villain - and it SHOULD be in your top ten of the best Bond movies of all time. 

We might be living in the golden age of superhero movies now, but the '90s were... not that. However, while the big-name heroes weren't often on the big screen, plenty of smaller ones were, and that includes The Shadow, a hero with an absolutely insane backstory. For a superhero movie from 1994, 'The Shadow' does a lot of things well, especially in the effects department, and Alec Baldwin is great...

Now here is an underrated gem of the '90s disaster movie craze. 'Daylight' stars Sylvester Stallone as a former (and disgraced!) New York City EMS chief who enters a collapsed tunnel to save a small group of survivors inside. Though it lays on the cheese pretty thick at times, it's worth viewing for the special effects and a reliable Stallone performance.

In 1998, we were blessed with not one but two asteroid-on-a-collision-course-with-earth movies, starting with 'Deep Impact.' While most people often think more of 'Armageddon,' this one still has plenty of disaster-movie goodies to offer.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, we're talking about Jennifer Aniston's feature film debut: Leprechaun! This 1993 horror-comedy spawned what would become an EIGHT-MOVIE series, which is... wild. Word has it you're guaranteed the Presidential Medal of Freedom if you manage to sit through all eight without your eyes and ears bleeding.

Political movies in the '90s were REALLY good at predicting what would happen to the country, and 1997's 'Wag the Dog' was no different. This political satire - starring Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman - about a fake, manufactured war used to cover up a presidential sex scandal was eerily prescient, as the Monica Lewinsky scandal would break just weeks after the movie was released. This movie wa...

If you've got serious fears about a virus wiping out humanity, this is the movie for you. 'Outbreak' is a 1995 blockbuster featuring an all-star cast that features a deadly virus that kills you in a matter of hours and the U.S. military desperate to nuke an American city. It also features the same monkey that played Marcel in 'Friends,' which probably gets top billing over Dustin Hoffman for most...

Happy Valentine's Day! To celebrate, we've picked a romantic comedy starring Nicolas Cage and Bridget Fonda that is loosely - and we mean LOOSELY - based on a true story in which a New York cop splits his winning lottery ticket with a waitress. If you only know Cage from his more recent work, this movie will shake you to your core, because he's basically Jimmy Stewart in this romantic leading man...

Cowabunga, dudes! If you grew up in the '80s and '90s, there was simply no escaping the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And why would you want to? These mutated, pizza-eating turtles kick butt, and their first live-action movie was the perfect hybrid of the cartoon show out at the time and the far more serious comic book series that kicked off this ubiquitous brand. This movie has a little something...

If you're in search of some high-quality H2O, have we got the episode for you. We're diving into 1998's 'The Waterboy,' which remains one of Adam Sandler's biggest box-office hits to date. This is also arguably one of the most quotable movies of the '90s, and while it was quoted to such a degree that it eventually became nauseating, a rewatch proves that this one holds up - provided you could hand...

In this episode, we revisit Michael Bay's directorial debut - and it's as insane as all Michael Bay movies that came after it. 'Bad Boys' also featured Will Smith and Martin Lawrence when they were both best-known as sitcom stars, but the success of this film catapulted them to superstardom. Michael Bay is about as divisive a director as there is in Hollywood, but if you like action movies and abs...

Here's a movie that tries to imagine a crazy world where the U.S. government aims to pass legislation that gives it the ability to spy on American citizens whenever, and however, it wants. Boy, wouldn't that be nuts?! In today's episode, the boys talk about 1998's 'Enemy of the State,' featuring Will Smith at the height of his box office powers and Gene Hackman, as always, at the top of his game.

Look, we're not going to say that the 1990s was the very best decade when it came to Christmas movies, but hey, there are some all-time gems in here! Specifically some movies about a kid who gets left at home and then accidentally takes a trip to New York by himself and has to fend off some criminals who want to kill him. Ever heard of them?! 

Depending on who you ask, 'The Cable Guy' is either a colossal failure or a misunderstood gem in Jim Carrey's absurd run in the '90s. Featuring just about every single comedian from that era, and showcasing early movie work from names like Judd Apatow and Ben Stiller, 'The Cable Guy' is a perfect comedy time capsule.

This episode is going to hit you harder than a Fulton Reed slapshot to the face! In today's episode, we're talking about 1992's 'The Mighty Ducks,' which influenced an entire generation of hockey players and, really, all kids in general. What millennial doesn't know "The Flying V" at this point? Join Steve and Fabs as they go in on everything about this sports classic.

What's in the box?! How about a new episode covering 1995's 'Se7en,' the movie that served as a true breakthrough role for Brad Pitt and further solidified Morgan Freeman's status as one of the best actors in Hollywood? Be sure to tune in as we also induct 'Se7en' into the inaugural class of the '90s Bro Movie Hall of Fame.

It's 1997's Air Force One coming in strong, starring Harrison Ford, Gary Oldman, and Glenn Close.

Just in time for Halloween, it's our first episode, covering the glorious Scream from Wes Craven
