New Release

This week on New Release … regular diehards Derrick and Drew are joined by super special guest Jamie, the diehardiest of the bunch. Die Hard 2 brings Bruce and company back together for another explosive Christmastime event but this time … it’s at an airport! Yes, it’s true that DH2 has a lot in common with the OG but it’s also bloodier, brawnier, and gives fewer (yet more) fucks than ever before. There’s plenty to enjoy in this subpar sequel and we hope our enthusiasm comes through in this week’s episode. Team Holly!

This week on New Release … gearheads Ashley, Derrick, and Drew go ‘round and ‘round on a Tom Cruise NASCAR movie that time mostly forgot. Still, it is interesting to see Tom re-team with the director of Top Gun to make Days of Thunder just a few years later. How much tread is left on those hotshot tires … we’re about to find out. Not to mention the injection of real-life romance this movie gets from Cruise acting alongside his then partner Nicole on and off the track.

This week on New Release … goofballs Ashley, Derrick, and Drew check out a long overdue sequel to the movie that introduced Gizmo—so cute, so cuddly, so dangerous! Does Gremlins 2: The New Batch capture what we loved about the original or does it quickly jump all sorts of sharks? (Damn, how was there not a shark-gremlin in this sucker?). We run through our favorite new monsters and highlight the silliest gags in a movie chock full of cartoonish violence. What do you get when you put a gremlin in a paper shredder?

This week on New Release … total dicks Ashley, Derrick, Drew are joined by special guest Brian to talk about a movie he calls … ‘perfect’. Is Dick Tracy starring Warren Beatty, Al Pacino, and Madonna a comic masterpiece or a disturbing look back in time? How bout both! We discuss the impressive set design, makeup, and over-the-top performances by all sorts of old Hollywood heavyweights. Then Brian takes us back to why he loved this movie so much as a kid. Admit it, you wanted Tracy’s cool wrist communicator back in the day. Please, help us crack this case wide open by searching ‘New Release’ on Spotify or Apple to subscribe to the podcast!

This week on New Release … glassbreakers Ashley, Derrick, and Drew are in hot pursuit of an ice cold … man. ‘The Iceman’, let’s call him. Another 48 Hrs. brings Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte back together for two more days of poor police work and confounding case developments. All I know is we have our work cut out for us trying to decipher anything that doesn’t go BANG or BOOM in this sucker. Oh did I mention Eddie Murphy’s in it?

This week on New Release … headcases Ashley, Derrick, and Drew blast off to Mars for the adventure of a lifetime. Total Recall, with Arnold Schwarzenegger, features some of the most eye-popping special effects you’ll ever see combined with a plot that’ll make you question everything you think you know. This classic sci-fi is a mindfuck every way to Sunday. It also serves as a coming out party of sorts for Arnold the comedian. Your Johnny Cab awaits!

This week on New Release … McFly boys Ashley, Derrick, and Drew look back at the final film in the franchise that taught us everything we know about time travel. Back to the Future Part III drops Marty and Doc and all of our favorites into a ruckus frontier town in 1885. Whereupon gunfights and horse chases and Delorean-fueled adventures are sure to ensue. Luckily, we get out of the episode alive without taking too many shots at this flawed but lovable movie. Hop in the passenger seat and brace yourself for a discussion that moves at no less than 88 words-per-minute. Search ‘New Release’ on Spotify or Apple to subscribe! Tune in Friday 📺

This week on New Release … wigglers Ashley, Derrick, and Drew go on a whacky adventure with two huge movie stars from the 90s. Bird on a Wire has pretty much ever kind of action you could dream up … and then some. Multiple car, moped, helicopter, and plane chases. Shoutouts at a repair shop, animal shelter, zoo, and god knows where else. Then, at the center of all this craziness, is an entertaining but totally cringey romance between two iconic actors. Bet you can guess which one goes by Mr. Wiggly when the mood strikes ;) Join us every week for a zany good time by searching ‘New Release’ on Spotify or Apple and subscribe! Tune in Friday 📺

This week on New Release … A+ students Ashley, Derrick, and Drew are given one of their most dangerous assignments yet. To really understand Class of 1999 we must compare our high school experiences to the hellscape that is Kennedy High. What would you do if your teachers were robots that got off on punishing and/or killing students? Would you … drop out, get addicted to Edge, or fight back? If you or anyone you know is struggling in school, we can help. For all the answers, search ‘New Release’ on Spotify or Apple and subscribe! Tune in Friday 📺

This week on New Release … gravediggers Ashley, Derrick, and Drew enjoy three or four scary stories for the price of one. Tales from the Darkside: The Movie is a horror anthology, like many others, that relies more on special effects and cheap thrills than character development but we’re cool with that. Give me a killer cat and gargoyle queen in the same sitting any day of the week. Mummies and witches and Steve Buscemi say bye!
