It's our TOTALLY '90S season finale here at CABBAGES and we needed to go out with a bang—blockbuster-style. So we invited New York City rap star BUB STYLES, fresh off the release of OUTERWEAR SZN 5, to join us in a death-defying discussion of the hit movie / multiple Razzie nominee CLIFFHANGER (1993, dir. Renny Harlin, starring Sylvester Stallone and John Lithgow).

So for this penultimate episode, we brought on JAY CINEMA, the Harlem-based rapper behind be a better friend, to help us break down Michael Crichton's jungle adventure CONGO (1995, dir.

Here at CABBAGES, we don't like to repeat ourselves. Yet this TOTALLY '90S season demands a repeat performance from one of that decade's biggest stars: Bruce Willis. So with Bronx rapper Bloo Azul as our special guest (and his latest albums Déjà Bloo and Sacré Bloo in heavy rotation here), we get into the Hollywood remake mess that is The Jackal (1997, dir. Michael Caton-Jones, co-starring Richard Gere and Sidney Poitier).
