Recap and Gown

This week, we're time warping back to 1983 to talk about the nostalgic teen drama, "The Outsiders." We wonder how you name your first kid "Darryl" and the next two "Sodapop" and "Ponyboy," laugh at Ralph Macchio's southern accent, discuss the way the movie really goes nuts in the last 15 minutes, and decide whether we'd rather hang out with the Greasers or the Socs.

This week, we take our first dive into the American Pie Cinematic Universe with "American Pie Presents: The Naked Mile." We wonder why they decided to overcomplicate this plot, talk about all of the very unexpected problematic elements, judge Eugene Levy for agreeing to be in all of these movies, and try to figure out why any college-aged woman would have a fetish for virgin guys.

This week, we're digging into the Oscar-winning prep school coming-of-age movie, "Dead Poets Society." We take a look at what Siskel and Ebert thought of this movie when it came out, try to figure out why a bunch of teenage boys thought hanging out in a dank cave and reading poetry to each other was the coolest way to spend a night, wonder why we were supposed to cheer for the guy who just wouldn't take "no" for an answer from the girl he liked, and wish Red Foreman would've called someone a dumbass.

This week, the Old Millennials are discussing the stalker thriller "Swimfan." We wonder why this movie didn't have more AIM in it, try to figure out why nobody was creeped out by this high school student dressing like a 50-year old woman, debate whether you can ever make a swimming scene look cool, and try to come up with better twist endings than this movie delivered.

This week, we're digging into one of the most iconic teen sex romps of all time, "Porky's." We debate whether this movie was a big bait-and-switch, work out the logistics of driving 70 miles through the Florida Everglades at night in the 50s, reveal why this movie is super problematic for unexpected reasons, and remember a time when George Mikan was one of the NBA's most dominant players.

This week, we're talking about a movie that took dead aim at basically every other movie we've ever covered on this podcast, 2001's Not Another Teen Movie. We discuss the distinction between satire and parody, get really pissed about the Bring It On storyline, talk about how gross the Cruel Intentions kiss was, and reveal which cast member was high on cocaine for the entirety of the filming of this movie.

This week, we dig into Jennifer Garner's star turn, the time travel rom-com "13 Going on 30." Is it a teen movie? No, no it is not. It's also not good, romantic, or funny. We get really upset about the "Thriller" dance number, wish we spent more time in the 80s, try to understand why we were supposed to want these two to wind up together, and discuss all the badly missed opportunities for actual comedy.

This week, we're wrapping up our Halloween Spooktacular with the sequel to the quintessential teen slasher movie of our generation, "Scream 2."

The 2021 Spooktacular continues with the sci-fi teen horror suspense movie, "The Faculty." We debate the wisdom of taking a drug some guy made up in his garage without asking any questions first, discuss the top-notch late 90s CGI, heap praise on Coach T-1000, and remember that time Crooks and Dave's high school physics teacher got derailed and spent an entire period working out the logic behind making a working lightsaber.

The Spooktacular continues with "Final Destination." We break down all the Rube Goldberg-style kills, try to figure out why Devon Sawa was so panicky before he knew anything bad was going to happen, wonder why they chose to name a character "Clear," and get really, really creeped out by the presence of Tony Todd.
