90 Under 90

Okay, folks.  Prepare yourselves.  It's going to be a controversial episode!  We're joined once again by Ian Simmons to talk about a movie that just recently celebrated its 30th anniversary: "Ghost Dad' starring Bill Cosby and directed by Sidney Poitier.  And we won't bury the lead.  This is going to get rapey.

It's our first official crossover episode of 90 Under 90!  We are joined for a fantastic cussin' discussion about Wes Anderson's 2009 movie "Fantastic Mr. Fox" based on the novel by Roald Dahl.  The stop motion animated movie remains pure Wes in this comedy starring George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Jason Schwarzmann, and Willem Dafoe.  We're joined this week by Micah and Jordan McCaw from the "McCaw Podcast Universe" to talk about one of their favorites.  Though where does the movie rank in everyone's full Wes Anderson rankings?  Listen to find out!

We're back in the studio this week, so Jer asked Mike to pick a movie for a good old-fashion trashin'.  Was it worth it?  Because this week we're discussing the 1999 beginning of Brendan Fraser's downfall with "Dudley Do-Right", yet another animated adaptation that doesn't know its audience.  Based on the Jay Ward cartoon, the movie is directed by Hugh Wilson and also stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Alfred Molina, Eric Idle, Robert Prosky and Alex Rocco.

Every time we get to talk with our oldest buddy Rick Schuler feels like we're stepping back in time.  So it's appropriate that we talk about a time travel-ish movie with him.  We step back to 2012 to talk about a movie full of nobodies who went on to become big somebodies.  We're discussing Colin Trevorrow's "Safety Not Guaranteed" starring Aubrey Plaza, Jake Johnson, Mark Duplass and Karan Soni.  The conversation is flippin' pinpoint, okay?

Romantic comedy?  Relationship drama?  This movie is neither of those.  Charlie Wein returns to the show to talk about the Blumhouse--er, excuse me BH horror movie "Sweetheart" directed by JD Dillard and starring Kiersey Clemons, as well as an actor Jer didn't know he was capable of hating so much!

Since No One Asked, Dan felt very strongly about "Tenet" and its box office potential.  But then they changed the release date.  Recorded before the release date was pushed back to August.

The nostalgia for this week's movie makes no sense at all.  We're celebrating the 30th anniversary of a movie released in 1990, which reeks of 1980's, based on a cartoon from the 60's.  Ken Palmer joins us to talk about "Jetsons: The Movie", a film that quite literally killed its star.  Directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera and featuring the voice talents of George O'Hanlon, Penny Singleton, Patric Zimmerman, Jean Vander Pyl, Don Messick, the legendary Mel Blanc and...Tiffany for some reason?

Jer and Dan are joined IN STUDIO with their closest friend Kevin Kirchman to discuss a movie that is "Pure Kevin" in the best ways possible.  We're discussing the  ultra-low budget horror drama "Coherence" written and directed by James Ward Byrkit.

Since no one asked, Dan shares his assessment on two overinflated forces in the entertainment world: Titanic and U2.
