Say what? You mean Nic and Jordan don't exclusively watch 90's movies? C'mon! They're dead to me. 90's 4 life. But I guess I might as well listen to this bonus episode where they get busy each making a list of their top five 80's faves, no matter how populist or blockbustery that might shake out to be. Between all these films covered, you'd have enough blue smoke, prosthetic makeup, and K-Y jelly to choke a xenomorph! Honestly, you could do that with just one of these films, but still. Lots of atmosphere here in these parts, be it wacky or just downright dystopian. The Harrison Ford love-fest also continues strong, but which movies will be chosen? Enjoy and let us know your top five 80's films! It ain't the 90's, but it pretty dang good!

What's this? A Best Picture nominee? How did this get in here?!
This episode, just in time for St. Patrick's Day, Filmshake talks about an all-time 90's great, 1993's The Fugitive. Does it dye our river green? Does it do a Peter Pan right off our dam? Does it ride the elevated train into our hearts? Wait, who else is there with you, The Fugitive? Is that 1994's Leprechaun 2 as the episode-opening punishment film? Now that sounds like Filmshake.

Magnolia. Fight Club. The Matrix.  Baby Geniuses? From possibly the finest year in film comes 95-minutes of cinematic  spit up. 1999's Baby Geniuses defies all convention and standards of decency for so many loads of diaper gravy, Jordan and Nic can do nothing but have fun with this bizarrely poop-obsessed patron request. Speaking of babies, our two Baby Geniuses-surviving hosts also talk 1993's straight-to-video baby dinosaur romp, Prehysteria!, for a few minutes, though this punishment film feels like Citizen Kane next to Baby Geniuses, the Citizen Kane of crap.
Baby Geniuses ' poster may tout that "naps are history," but our diaper gravy-induced nightmares will last forever.

The Ultimate Love/Skate Relationship might just be between Jordan and Nic, as they rather fittingly have a rather fiery argument about the 1992 romantic comedy, The Cutting Edge. One host thinks this film about bickering figure skaters who fall in love is the best romantic comedy he's ever seen, while the other just thinks it's a rambling, mediocre mess. Will our hosts reconcile by the end to win the gold, or will their anger boil over into an ice-melting inferno?!
They also talk about not only 2006's straight to DVD sequel, The Cutting Edge: Going for the Gold, but the The Cutting Edge 3 and The Cutting Edge 4...because one of them watched both of those too for some reason.
The wintry war of words climaxes in the episode-ending trivia battle, where one of the questions is literally "At what minute and second mark does the alligator show up on screen in the Hallmark Channel original film, My Southern Family Christmas," because this is THAT kind of episode.

You know, there's something very important that we need to do as soon as possible. F...ilmshake. Right before we ring in 2023, we're ringing every masked ounce out of Stanley Kubrick's 1999 swansong, Eyes Wide Shut.  No dream is ever just a dream, but is this movie a masterpiece, or is every touch of perceived meticulous genius just a meticulous aesthetic choice made solely for the sake of aesthetics? Also, we're talking 1983’s BMX Bandits, where a teenaged Nicole Kidman rides around with some bicycle blokes to fight crime. Only on Filmshake...seriously, only on Filmshake.

Hold it right there. I knew it was you. I could smell you getting off the elevator. While you're here, check out the latest Filmshake, where we're talking 1992's Home Alone 2 for that many hours. We could go on forever, baby! Our four-flushing carcasses also talk 1997's lousy, lying, lowdown Home Alone 3 for a minute, or rather, Nic does, as he lost the last trivia battle. Will he lose an unprecedented two trivia battles in a row? Maybe we're off our hinges, but listen now to find out!
MERRY CHRISTMAS, YOU FILTHY ANIMALS! AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Also, this is Home Alone 2 's 30th anniversary. 1992 was 30 years ago.

You know Filmshake. We're tall. We're kinda kinda tall. We're sorta tall. And we're like always wearing t-shirts. Sometimes. But this time, we're talking 1998's Can't Hardly Wait and Dead Man on Campus with author, Matt Pais. Matt talks his new book, Talk 90's With Me, and then we discuss these two kinda kinda shining examples of late 90's youth culture. It seems some of us really miss 1998.
Speaking of miss, guess who loses the episode-ending trivia battle? He's tall. Kinda kinda tall.

Were you planning on going to the school dance this Halloween? That's lame! You should throw a party in a disgusting, abandoned morgue on the outskirts of town instead!...or you could listen to Filmshake. We're talking 1994's Night of the Demons 2, where some stupid, horny teenagers decide to throw a party in a disgusting, abandoned morgue on the outskirts of town instead of going to the school dance. We also talk the original 1988 Night of the Demons, where some stupid, horny teenagers throw a party in a disgusting, abandoned morgue on the outskirts of town instead of going to the school dance. For no apparent reason, Nic also recaps 1997's Night of the Demons 3, and 2009's Night of the Demons remake, where some stupid, horny teenagers throw a party in a disgusting, abandoned morgue on the outskirts of town instead of...
There's also the episode-ending trivia battle, which may be more horrific than every Night of the Demons movie combined.

The President recently declared the national pandemic over, but does he even 90s?! Doesn't he know we're just one South American spider away from an eight-legged army biting us all to oblivion? What about Motaba-infected monkeys that will always be there for you with a highly-contagious, eye-bleeding virus? Hasn't he ever watched 1990's Arachnophobia? Hasn't he ever seen 1995's Outbreak? Well we have, and we're here to talk about them with our bug spray and tranquilizer darts in hand...but will we use these implements of pandemic prevention on each other in our episode-ending trivia battle? Is humanity the real virus?!
Only Filmshake can provide the answers to these questions.

It's our Ninjasode! Even if we weren't a podcast where you literally can't see us, you literally wouldn't be able to see us because of the skills we learned from Jubei in 1993's Ninja Scroll, and Tone Loc and Rob Schneider in 1993's Surf Ninjas! We can throw ninja stars! We can make ourselves invisible! Wait, Jubei's actually a samurai and Tone Loc is just a rapping police officer? Rob Schneider doesn't even know karate?! We've been lied to!!!
That's okay because this episode is awesome. Jordan and Nic talk about their history with anime, their anime favorites, and the two movies above. There's even a special "lightning round" version of their usual trivia battle. They might not be ninjas, but no one can argue against this fact: they are indeed podcasters...and you cannot see them.
