Old Millennials Remember Movies

Can destiny be determined by a shared love of strawberry Pop Tarts? How drunk does a jock need to be before he’s nice to a nerd? And can a normal human being stand to be locked in a bathroom with Seth Green (wearing giant goggles) for an entire evening? It’s “Can’t Hardly Wait,” a teen comedy about falling in love despite knowing almost nothing about your object of affection.

Also discussed:

* The Greatest Showman (2017)

* Mandy (2018)

* Maniac (television series)

* Luke Cage (television series)

* Fargo Season 3

Rachael Leigh Cook is an art NERD, with GLASSES! How could she possibly become the prom queen!? Maybe because she's already completely gorgeous? You might remember She's All That as being a pretty good teen comedy. Well your memories are wrong! Admitting to liking this movie in high school is actually pretty embarrassing now. How did I get duped into this movie's absolutely demeaning dog crap??

So the title says 10 Things I Hate About You, but if you listen closely, it's more like 12 or 13...tune in as we discuss the movie that made the world fall in love with Heath Ledger, and he doesn't even begin the movie as a main character. It's based on a Shakespeare play, but with more Midol jokes.

Other Movies Discussed:

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

Searching (2018)

It's the true story of the first ever Jamaican bobsled team. Except it's not a true story. At all. We discuss one of the last John Candy performances and whether or not the movie is, um, well, racist.

Part human, part robot - ALL COP. Don't even try to dismiss this as a cheesy 80s relic. Robocop was awesome then, and it's awesome now. We breakdown how Paul Verhoeven's classic has gotten even better over time. Some of our favorite moments include stop motion robots, henchmen decisions to stupidly attempt to shoot down Robocop, the greatness of a lady cop, cool one liners and so much more.
