Deja Review

We’re back for 2019 and, like a failed lift, we splash head-first into 1987’s ‘Dirty Dancing’. We discuss juggling watermelons, how the film almost never was, and generally gush over the wonder that is Jennifer Grey.

Also: we know Mike got the Sarah/Sandra Bernhardt connection wrong (there is no connection). Don’t @ us.

Our buddy Mark Wilson joins us because, by some weird twist of fate, he had never seen the 1988 cinematic masterpiece, Die Hard. I mean, how could this happen? It’s Die Hard.

Anyway, we discuss the many marvels and the (very) few blemishes of this Christmas Classic. Twinkie, anyone?

The excellent Alex Heath returns to talk all things Robocop (1987). Aside from some reasonably interesting Dutch accent work, we discuss who can ‘get it’, boob quotients, and an astonishing amount of trivia from the documentary, ‘Flesh + Steel - The Making of Robocop’.
