Reel Window: Rewatching Random Movies from our Childhood

Pauline could not be more excited with the movie she’s picked for this week! And Lisa could not be more ready to guess what it is. How long until the mystery title is revealed? Not long. Will there still be quotes and randomness and laughter along the way? Of course! So dial up the volume and join the sisters as they play their favourite movie game.

Who wants to talk about an 80’s western parody? We do! It’s time for “The Three Amigos!” Starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Chevy Chase, this cult classic is a film that was constantly being watched and constantly being quoted in the Brunnen house. A comedy that was not a kid’s movie, it’s safe to say little Pauline and Lisa had quite a few misunderstandings regarding this film. How does it hold up during the rewatch? Is it worthy of its cult status? Or is this another film the sisters wish they’d left in the past? Tune in and find out!

Lisa’s pick this week! Can you guess this 80s comedy before Pauline feels confident enough to toss a name out there? Find out what we’re watching for our next episode!

The sisters review “Return to Me”, a little-known romantic comedy starring David Duchovny and Minnie Driver. Seriously, have any listeners ever heard of it before? Adored by Pauline and Lisa as teenagers and surprisingly impactful on their understanding of relationships, this film was in constant replay in the house. But, 24 years later, does it still hold up? Are the sisters still enamoured with the characters? Or is this another film that was better left in the past? The one in and find out!

It’s game time everybody! Wahoo! And that means Lisa and Pauline are in the best mood possible. This week Pauline has picked the movie and Lisa is trying to figure out which one. To make it an even greater challenge, the trivia for this film is rather thin. Practically non-existent. Can Lisa guess it anyway? Tune in and find out!

At long last, Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing” is being discussed. We know you were all waiting desperately to find out how this film held up. Weren’t you? Starring Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson, Michael Keaton, Denzel Washington, and Keanu Reeves, this 90’s interpretation is remembered remarkably fondly by little Lisa and Pauline. Especially given they had no idea what it was about. Is it worth rewatch? Let’s find out!

Welcome back friends! It’s time for another Triviasode - huzzah! This week Lisa has picked the mystery film and it is very much a “Lisa movie”. Pauline is guessing and *gasp* could this be the one where she can’t figure it out? Only one way to know. Pour yourself a favourite beverage, tune in, and have fun answering trivia along with the sisters.

It’s Triviasode time again! Yay! And this time Pauline has picked the perfect February film. A comedy classic that was watched by all the Brunnens on repeat and quoted incessantly. Will Lisa guess it before the episode’s end? Of course! Will there be banter and tangents before then? Absolutely! So, what are you waiting for? Hit play and enjoy!

Who’s in the mood for a Christmas movie? Anyone? Excellent because this week the sisters are talking about the sequel to one of the biggest Christmas blockbusters ever - Home Alone 2: Lost in New York! Is it worthy of its predecessor? Is it as hilarious as Pauline and Lisa remember from childhood? Well…best to tune in and find out.
