"I'm sorry I blew up your mom, Ricky." This line was uttered by Lane Meyer. Lane neglects his chores. Flunks his classes. Drives recklessly. And falls asleep on the job. And he's the good guy. Yes, back in 1985, audiences loved a John Cusack anti-hero. But now, decades later, do we want our 95 minutes and our two dollars back? Is our nostalgia for this little comedy strong enough to withstand its light grasp on parenthood, heartbreak, and ski safety?  And, is suicide ever funny? The Old Roommates take a break from dating the basketball team and give this cult classic a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
