RoboCop captured the hearts and imaginations of people around the world in 1987 but 35 years later, it can’t possibly still hold up, right? There’s no way that the special effects could still be good, right? The gruesome violence probably isn’t as bad as we thought it was as kids, right? We probably hate Bob Morton the most out of any of the bad guys, right? This might go a little different that w...

Last Action Hero was considered major FLOP when it debuted in 1993. It could have been that it was just ahead of it’s time and people weren’t ready for it. It also could have been that Jurassic Park came out right before this. Regardless, we take a look back on this film with a modern eye to see how we feel about it. Enjoy! •0:00:00 - Introductions •0:03:00 - Memories of first viewing •0:07:15- Pe...

Compared to Christmas, there are not many movies that take place around Thanksgiving. But of all the turkey day movies, Son In Law is usually ranked among the best. Does this movie still make us laugh? How long is it acceptable to wear a letterman’s jacket? Why didn’t we get a Patrick Renna/Paulie Shore spin off movie later in life?

Spooky season continues with our review of Scream. It was the highest grossing slasher film of all-time until 2018 and revitalized the horror movie genre, along with being responsible for the most overused and unoriginal halloween costume of the late 90s and early 00s. We dive in deep for a modern-day review. Who is the most punchable face? Did you see all the cameos in this movie?
