Eating After Midnight episodes

  • Get your Hot White Privilege: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)

    The debate is on: Is Ferris a cool, charismatic guy with a 'living in the moment' philosophy that we all can learn from or is he a narcissistic bitch boy sickeningly stuffed with so much privilege that he sees manipulation as a way of 'helping' poor Cameron have a good time? It's hard to dismiss a classic, especially one with such brilliantly iconic scenes, but damn Ferris...why you got to be such a dick sometimes? Special Guest Leslie Graves provides excellent insight and deep cuts on this very divisive episode of EAM.

  • Get Your Hot White Privilege: Sixteen Candles (1984)

    Sixteen reasons that Sixteen Candles (1984) really is the worst of the worst. Sexist. Racist. Rapist. Pinkerbell. Xenophobic. Inappropriate touching. Teenage girl experience through the Male Gaze. Shitty, forgetful parents. Anger Ball grandfathers. Violent grandmothers. Privileged kids. Stupid, narcissistic heartthrobs. Basically wrote the Date Rape Script. Obsessed with breasts, unrealistic views on love and romance. A touch of gaslighting. John Hughes.

  • All That Glitters: Legend (1985?)

    Cruise in a cocktail dress, Curry in 7-inch platforms and Tangerine Dream. Yup, we're reheating the fantasy feast that is Legend. Some parts are as yummy as every delectable word that comes out of Curry's black-lipped mouth, but ultimately we got a bit sick of Lily as well as the many different versions and cuts of this film - Ridley!!! Actress Alix Martin joins us as we go to hell and back in a tsunami of glitter, glitter, glitter. So be good for goodness saaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....

  • All That Glitters: Labyrinth (1986)

    Dark, dangerous and super-creepy...yup, we're talking about Jim Henson's 1986's children cult-classic Labyrinth. Sarah is a spoiled brat, lost in a fantasy world, who wishes away her poor little baby brother Toby. Jareth, a goblin king with a penchant for super-tight trousers and teased hair, grants her wish only to become a total creepazoid as he obsesses over owning her. It's a classic with puppets and poppy tunes to sing along to - "Dance Baby Dance"!

  • When Tom Hanks was Funny: Splash (1984)

    Behold the mermaid! A male sex fantasy in romantic comedy's clothing, Splash is a straight-up head-scratcher at times, but Darryl Hannah brings it as Ron Howard's version of Ariel, John Candy is perfectly effortless as a lovable letch, Eugene Levy is cracks us up with his neurotic paranoia and Tom Hanks...well, as Allan, he's got a bit of a mean streak. It's modern-day mermaids, butt merkins and lobsters for lunch. Jump on in, but just to warn you - the water's a bit gross.

  • When Tom Hanks was Funny...The Money Pit (1986)
    Money Pit is a romp of slapstick and seal laughs with the best narcissistic Russian composer that has ever graced the silver-scene - but can Shelley play the Long game to get this movie into the Comedy Hall of Fame? And while T. Hanks kills it with his bobble-head comedy chops, is it enough to save us from that oh-so-problematic plot twist at the end? And why, Why, WHY is that tune so damn catchy?

  • Bizarre Love Triangles: Pretty in Pink
    It doesn’t get more 80s fantastic than Pretty in Pink. Molly Ringwald is a total badass, telling it how it is and so stylish, though we really need to talk about that dress...Joined by special guest Kate Comer
