Can we make doing some adaptation of A Christmas Carol a yearly tradition? Maybe, ‘cause this is now two years in a row!

1948: the year Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope was released, and also the approximate number of homosexuals featured in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope. Ah, we kid, we kid…there’s five at the most. Two at the least. Three at the most likely. But hey, three homosexuals in a 1948 movie? And one of them is Jimmy Stewart?? What more could you hope for???

Welcome to November, aka Classic Movie Month on That Aged Well! We’re kicking it off with another Billy Wilder film, 1959’s Some Like It Hot…has this man ever made a bad film? If so, Erika and Paul haven’t found it yet.

Well, it’s everyone’s favorite time of year…that special Monday where Paul watches a slasher film! But still, he just got through Jaws, so surely a silly little lark like I Know What You Did Last Summer couldn’t be too scary, right? After all, Sarah Michelle Gellar is there, and what is Buffy Summers if not a comfort, right? In any case, come listen to Erika and Paul take you through the plot of I...

Okay, we had our fun last week and now we are back to horror classics with 1975’s Jaws, a film that Paul swore up and down he would never watch. Well, the thing about Paul is that he’s easily swayed by public opinion. A bunch of requests combined with Erika’s enthusiasm got Paul to watch Jaws! Did he like it? Is he furious with Erika?? Is the podcast over??? Listen for all of That Aged Well’s opin...

We came back hot with a classic and followed up with…well, I don’t think anyone is going to confuse this film for a classic. But it features classics! Classics like Gene Wilder and Dom DeLuise and GILDA RADNER! So who could complain? It’s possible you’ve never even heard of this film, but fear not…Paul and Erika will do their level best to explain it! You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@Tha...

Well, WELCOME BACK!! The long September break is over! Erika and Paul have returned just in time for Spooky October, and they have brought with them a horror classic: 1976’s Carrie! It’s not just that Sissy Spacek, Betty Buckley, Amy Irving, Nancy Allen, PJ Soles, and Piper Laurie are SERVING, it’s that the film raises so many important questions. How many slaps in the face is too many slaps in th...

Y’all, it’s finally time…Paul and Erika are watching Can’t Hardly Wait, a film about a high school graduation released the very same year that your hosts graduated high school! We like to think that the hosts have aged beautifully, but how about this movie? The jury is out, the opinions are flying, and your hosts are headed out on vacation after this…see y’all in October!!

The year is 1986, the film is Rob Reiner’s Stand By Me, and the hosts are crying (again). Seriously, are Erika and Paul crying a lot more lately? Do they both need to toughen up, or should they be celebrated for letting their emotions run so freely? In any case, enjoy this episode on the movie that gave us Jerry O’Connell, Corey Feldman, Wil Wheaton, and River Phoenix! You can follow That Aged Wel...

We asked for summer vacation movies, and y’all answered, and y’all agreed on one film and one film only. Paul and Erika are nothing if not eager to please their listeners, so they are diving into the Carl-Reiner-directed, Mark-Harmon-starring, reality-defying production that is 1987’s Summer School!

It’s August, and all August That Aged Well is taking on Summer Vacation movies! Erika and Paul kick it off with Nancy Meyers’ 1998 remake The Parent Trap, which introduced the world to Lindsay Lohan.

It’s the finale of Action July and we are celebrating by revisiting the oeuvre of Arnold Schwarzegger!

We’ve done Die Hard, we’ve done Speed, aka Die Hard on a bus...it’s time to take a gander at Air Force One, aka Die Head on a plane! As always, opinions are flying left, right, and center, but don’t worry…there’s also time for Paul and Erika to pitch a way to make this movie 8,000 times better by mashing it up with another 90s classic!

Warning: probably not a good episode to listen to while hungry, particularly if you enjoy Chinese cuisine. But, hey, you do you! Action July carries on with 1998/s buddy cop comedy adventure Rush Hour! We’ve got Jackie Chan! We’ve got Chris Tucker! We’ve got Tom Wilkinson!

Moulin Rouge! - Depression Beards, Parisian Geography & a Huge Talent : Does anything do more for a movie title than an exclamation point? This is not your parents’ Moulin Rouge…this is Baz Luhrmann’s MOULIN ROUGE! The patrons have spoken, so Paul and Erika are rounding out this month-long theatrical celebration by discussing 2001’s instant classic, where they get to swoon over Nicole Kidman,...

Theater Month continues with 1988’s Hairspray, and this time both Erika and Paul actually saw the musical that grew from it! They’re here to take you through the John Waters classic, and to celebrate Ricki Lake, Divine, and, of course, early aughts pop princess Vitamin C…not sure why the “Graduation” singer is being mentioned?
