We watched something so convoluted and weird that I still don't understand it. There were pretty colors, the proto-ghost from the game Destiny, and lots of almost action on the game grid. At least Jeff Bridges is always waaaaay cool.
Dead or alive, you're coming with me! Pete and Brian watch one of the highest body count movies, except for Commando, in our list. So much good stuff here. Extra long arms of Dick Jones when he falls out of the window, ED-209, Flat face skin of Peter Weller.... all the good stuff. Red Forman is an awesome bad guy!
Pete and Brian put on their shoulder pads and play all the synthesizers and then get their Glow so they can reach the final level. The Last Dragon might be our best episode ever. Holy crap!
Get the Glow
Put on shoulder pads
Become ShoNuff! (That's Mr. Nuff to you, kid!)
Kiss my Converse!
I wonder where Jack Black ripped off the idea for Kung Fu Panda?
We love Eddie Murphy so much we decided to watch him not acting in this wonderful romp down memory lane. We wanted to like this one soooooo bad. Thankful that at least Tywin Lannister and Charlotte Lewis were in this.
Do you remember a world where Eddie Murphy was funny? I do too. This is the place where it happened. Back when Duke & Duke were at the top of their game and had all the orange juice! This movie was definitely a win for us!
Not to be confused with the steaming pile of horsesquabble from 2010, this Kraken is straight out of Monster Squad "Creature from the Black Lagoon". One of Brian's favorite movies from childhood and Pete owned the metal lunchbox, this movies had all the greatest hair from none other than Mr. Luscious Locks himself... the alliterative Harry Hamlin.
A dimwit quarterback, a crazy scientist, and a travel agent travel across the stars to do battle with a merciless galactic emperor and they derp their way to winning.
Pete bought this movie because he was so excited to see it. He has to live with that now....
If you want a two and a half hour movie that presses on at a breakneck pace so you don't have a moment to pause and breath and it leaves you so utterly exhausted and mind numbingly paralyzed that you forget what most of the movie is about (unless of course you're in college and about to take a test on the Arthurian legend... then this is perfect for you...).... We were so excited when we started this movie. so blissfully ignorant of the weight and gravitas...
OMG did we get to watch another Arnold movie?!?! YASSSSS! All the grunting, all the spandex, all the plot holes! Join Pete and Brian as they joyfully romp into the real reality show of the future! Just when you thought Arnold couldn't get more Arnold....

Three dads watching movies from our youth and trying to figure out if they hold up, should they be rebooted, and... should we force our kids to eventually watch them.
