10 min - Spaceballs
A generation's first experience with satire sure has a lot of d*ck jokes. We had a classy discussion over much our humor has or has not evolved 30+ years later.

1 hr 5 min - Bram Stoker's Dracula
Amanda's middle school English class meets Francis Ford Coppola's interpretation of Bram Stoker's gothic classic. Yes we both have read the book and yes we had some notes for Mr. Coppola. This is our third 'After Dark' selection where we take a look at the movies we absolutely should not have been watching as kids. You know we had to do one of these for Halloween.

1 hr 11 min - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The movie that birthed a franchise and cawabunga'd into our 90s hearts is also our most requested title. Does our love for human-like turtles and yoda-like rats feel as rad as it did when we were kids?

1 hr 13 min - Field of Dreams
How much nostalgia has to live in our middle-aged hearts to be moved by a boomer with daddy issues listening to the voices in his head? Also, Jess and Amanda have a giant disagreement about what happens to Terrence Mann out in that cornfield.

About Live UP
From the publisher's feed
We are re-watching films from our childhood to see if they live up! Our childhood was in the 80s-90s, but movie release dates can be outside of that window. In each episode we focus on one movie and will score whether it still lives up to us now that we're adults, and whether it would live up for kids today. It's all very scientific and professional.*
*narrator voice*
It's actually neither...
