Whoopi Goldberg was a nun on the run in the 1992 megahit Sister Act. The Emile Ardolino directed comedy had its offering plate overflowing in box office bucks, with audiences unable to get enough of the film's pop-song-singing Sisters. But now, decades later, is the novelty of the "nunsense" enough to sustain a rewatch? Does the movie still take us to church, or have us reaching for earplugs? And what on earth is an acclaimed actress like Maggie Smith doing in this thing? The Old Roommates get down on their knees and discuss the saintly shenanigans through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

Marky Mark in a movie about porn? Sign us up! Yes, back in 1997, the anticipation for the film Boogie Nights was bigger than Mark Wahlberg's 13-inch prosthetic penis. Back then, the story of Dirk Diggler certainly was exciting, but it was also depressing as f*ck. But now, decades later, does the A-list cast outweigh all the moaning about what this film wasn't? Why did Burt Reynolds hate one of his most-acclaimed films? And are these the most fun-looking pool parties ever? The Old Roommates grab their GEDs and discuss all the coke, copulations, and catastrophes of the Paul Thomas Anderson film. Listen to this.

We need to talk about Willie. Any fan of Indiana Jones holds a special place for Willie Scott, the oh-so-loud lounge singer played by Kate Capshaw in 1984's Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. But is that special place in their hearts or in hell? Now decades later, does time heal all cinematic wounds? Has Harrison Ford ever looked better? And why did Ke Huy Quan's Short Round never get a spin-off? The Old Roommates hop in a mine cart and revisit the Steven Spielberg adventure through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

Reese Witherspoon's 11th film, Election, nabbed her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress, and turned her into a critics' darling. Though the movie vanished at the box office, Reese's Tracy Enid Flick was unforgettable. But how well do we remember the rest of this dark comedy, 25 years after its release? Is Matthew Broderick's boyish charm enough to forgive his sleazeball character? Are elections ever a laughing matter? The Old Roommates share their vote regarding the 1999 Alexander Payne film ... all through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

"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.

"The Shawshank Redemption" RevisitedThe voice of Morgan Freeman helped a prison movie break into the hearts of moviegoers everywhere. Back in 1994, everyone was swooning over convicted killers, thieves, and other criminals in Frank Darabont's The Shawshank Redemption. Based on a novella by Stephen King and graced with an odd name, the movie got shanked at the box office but soon became a classic on video. Now, thirty years later, should this violent yet heartwarming tale be approved as a classic or should we lock it up and throw away the key? The Old Roommates grab their rock hammers and chip away at this beloved drama through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

"Come On Eileen" and "Mickey" were two iconic tunes from the early 1980s. Both were #1 hits. Both were about objects of affection. And both were earworms we couldn't get enough of. But how well do we remember their music videos? Did it turn the earworms into eyesores? Were Dexy's Midnight Runners in need of new clothes and a bath? Did Toni Basil's crush on Mickey border on crazy? And why is it okay for 80s men to grope women but not for women to even talk about groping men? The Old Roommates get their pom poms in a twist as they revisit these oh-so merry music videos through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

“The bloodsucking Brady Brunch.” As we learned from 1987’s The Lost Boys: vampires are people too. From shop owners to runaways to hippie teens who love concerts, vampires were everywhere. And movie audiences couldn’t get enough of them. A 17-year-old Kiefer Sutherland led a fanged gang while “the Coreys” (Haim and Feldman) fended them off. But now, decades later, does this adolescent adventure kinda suck? Or does it hold up better than bat feet in a cave? The Old Roommates put on some garlic t-shirts and discuss it all through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

Live nude girls! Now that we have your attention, let’s discuss 1996’s lesbian-lovers crime thriller, Bound. Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon stole scenes while their characters stole mafia money. Upon release, people couldn’t stop talking about the Wachowskis stylish directorial debut … they just couldn’t see it. Available only in limited release then, the film achieved iconic LGBTQ status on DVD. But now, decades later, were we all hot and bothered for nothing? The Old Roommates pour some black coffee (of course) and discuss Bound through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.

Bruce Willis and Kirstie Alley brought their TV comedy chops to a romcom with a baby-voiced twist, Look Who’s Talking. The 1989 flick delivered big numbers at the box office, spawned two sequels, and gave John Travolta a career rebirth. But now, decades later, has the new-baby smell worn off? Are toddlers and romantic comedies ever a winning formula? And what on earth is Oscar winner Olympia Dukakis doing in this? The Old Roommates tie on some bibs and feast their eyes on this Amy Heckerling smash through their older, wiser middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
