Katie and Bridget Bend and Snap as they re-watch the iconic 2000's movie: Legally Blonde! It's a movie all about how if your ex-boyfriend is a loser who dumps you at the START of a dinner together and then you decide to follow him to law school but you quickly realize he's a jabrony - takes a deep breathe - that you should just forgot about his butt-head and become star student instead! What!? Like it's hard!? Come along as we meet Elle Woods, a newly admitted Harvard Law student who quickly dominates the school and shows everyone there's more to her than just her blonde hair and fashion sense! ...Because wearing pink equals fashion sense, apparently! This movie has us asking the deeps questions, such as: What happens within our justice system if a witness to a murder trials confesses to the crime on the stand? How common is it to get a 179/180 on your LSATs? Did Kim Kardashian steal the faux fur panties idea from this movie while she was studying to go to law school!? All this and more in this funny, feministic movie that in our opinion, holds up! Released in 2001, it stars Reese Witherspoon, Luke Wilson, Selma Blair, Matthew Davis, Jennifer Coolidge, Ali Larter, Alanna Ubach, Jessica Cauffiel, and Victor Garber.

Katie and Bridget debate the phonetic spelling for "Fievel" as they re-watch the animated sequel - An American Tail: Fievel Goes West! Come along as we once again follow Fievel and his family as they, once again, decide to immigrate elsewhere, and - ONCE AGAIN - Fievel gets lost during the trek. But don't worry, he somehow is able to survive in the desert for who knows how long, teaches us about mirages, and makes it back to his family just as they are putting together their own Saw-esq death trap! When Fievel tries to warn his family about the evil plot from the cats to turn them all into mouseburgers, nobody believes him and he has to go bother the famous cowboy dog Wylie Burp to help him. How can a little mouse defeat a hoard of evil cats enacting their own Ocean's 11 murder plot? He can't! But his best friend Tiger (who is a cat) can help once he learns how to be a dog! We've got lazy eyes, questionable song lyrics, and a familiar plot with a cowboy twist all wrapped up into this light-hearted American Tail sequel (squeek-uel?). Released in 1991, it features voice acting from Phillip Glasser, James Stewart, Cathy Cavadini, Dom DeLuise, John Cleese, Jon Lovitz, and Amy Irving.

Katie and Bridget get the hell out of Transylvania as they re-watch: Van Helsing! It's a movie all about vampires, werewolves, Frankensteins, and monster hunters - all of whom are KINDA HOT! WHY!? Come along as we meet our main character Van Helsing, a man who has weird ethics but truly wins the beauty pageant for hottest werewolf. When he is sent to Transylvania to kill Dracula he encounters a lot more bullshit and jam packed action than we could have imagined. So much so that we might actually get lost in the plot when talking about it, but we certainly didn't feel that way while watching it! This movie asks the deep questions, such as: Why did Dracula put his hidden castle in Narnia? Why does Anna have to wear a corset, leather pants, AND heels while fighting vampires and werewolves? WHY DID WE ABANDON FRANKENSTEIN IN A GRAVEYARD WITH NO SECURITY AND THEN ACT SURPRISED WHEN HE GETS KIDNAPPED!? All these and more in this fun, spoopy flick! Released in 2004, it was written and directed by Stephen Sommers and stars Hugh Jackman, Kate Beckinsale, Richard Roxburgh, David Wenham, and 
Shuler Hensley.

Katie and Bridget change their names to "Heather" as they re-watch the 80's cult classic: Heathers! It's a movie all about lots of teen angst, death, and suicide... But somehow nobody ever cries or is afraid or calls the police and we all just giggle while it's all happening!? Huh!?! Come along as we meet Veronica - aka NOT a Heather. When she meets new student JD - aka PSYCHO GUY - they begin a weird love affair that results in death... Lots and lots of death. But don't worry about the police or anything because all of these deaths are really just "suicides" and who needs DNA evidence anyway!? When Veronica gets fed up with JD's bullshit (a little too late in the game, but here we are), she decides to beat him at his own game and save the school from being blown up. Hi - how was this made into a Broadway musical!? We've got shoulder pads, 80's high school tropes, and absurdity in this weird, weird movie. Released in 1988, it stars Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Shannen Doherty, Lisanne Falk, and Kim Walker.

Katie and Bridget learn about lips as they re-watch the 70's cult classic: The Rocky Horror Picture Show! Come along as we take you on a strange journey... Filled with corsets, Frankenstein monsters with bowl cuts, and songs that we don't understand the lyrics to. Hey - we said it was gonna be a strange journey! Our main stars are Brad and Janet, two PRUDES (I GUESS) who find themselves lost at Dr. Frank-N-Furter's castle; a place filled with music, boning, and apparently aliens. When the two unwillingly spend the night there they encounter a loss of clothes but a gain of STDs! So there's that! This movie asks the deep questions, such as: If you make a Frankenstein monster, is it the age of it's brain or the age of a newborn? Did this movie help or harm the general public's perception of transvestites? Why was Meat Loaf there and what the hell was he singing about!? All this and more in this movie that you'll wish you took an edible or a nap during. Released in 1975, starring Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Richard O'Brien, Patricia Quinn, Nell Campbell, Peter Hinwood, and Meat Loaf.

Katie and Bridget go get their (outside) bushes trimmed as they re-watch the iconic: Edward Scissorhands! It's a story all about an emotastic man/possibly-AI-creation who teaches a small town that disabilities are not roadblocks but rather obstacles to overcome... Or according to Tim Burton, they actually will always lead to DEATH and SADNESS. THANKS TIM! Come along as we meet Edward Scissorhands - he's the guy with the scissorhands, in case you were confused. When he gets pseudo-adopted by an Avon Saleswoman named Peg, he discovers a world full of horny housewives, possibly hard of hearing dads, and a weird love interest with Peg's daughter Kim. This movie asks the deep questions, such as: Does our society ultimately highlight, exploit, and then vilify those with disabilities? What can we as a culture do to better support individuals with disabilities in the real world/in Tim Burton's world? Would these housewives have been completely different people if they all just had vibrators instead!? All this and more in this very Tim Burton-esq film. Released in 1990, it was directed by Tim Burton and stars Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest, Anthony Michael Hall, Alan Arkin, Kathy Baker, and Conchata Ferrell.

Katie and Bridget prepare for vampires - ala Home Alone style - as they re-watch the 80's classic: The Lost Boys! It's a movie all about how the effects of peer pressure can lead to multiple deaths, gang violence, AND vampirism. Don't worry, Stand Up Sally will help you learn to say NO to all this nonsense in our social skills video! Come along as we meet brothers Sam and Michael, who are new to the town of Santa Carla, and who rightfully so have lots of questions. When they move in with their kooky grandpa (alongside their mom too - HEY DIANNE WIEST), they quickly discover that the people here are weirddddddd... And possibly blood-suckers! When Michael gets lured in by the gang of teenage, possibly young 20 year old vampires, it's up to Sam to save his brother and kill the undead! We've got sweaty saxophone players, a deep voiced Corey Feldman, and dogs saving the day in this wild 80's ride! Released in 1987, it stars Jason Patric, Corey Haim, 
Dianne Wiest, Barnard Hughes, Edward Herrmann, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, and Jami Gertz.

Katie and Bridget try to look away from the Alpha Zombies running (if you know, you know), as they re-watch this month's NOstalgic Happy Hour: 28 Years Later! We've finally made it to the third movie of the 28 Days Later franchise and spoiler alert - THERE'S STILL LOTS OF ZOMBIES GOOD GOD! Come along as we meet Spike, a 12 year old boy who lives in a cute coastal town in Scotland with his parents. When his dad takes him to the mainland for some good old manly zombie hunting, he discovers that there's a doctor living there just lighting fires nonstop. Not sure how we didn't see that from our town, but fine! When Spike's dad refuses to get help from the doctor for Spike's mom, who's clearly dying, Spike threatens to shank him, distracts the entire village all at once, and sneaks mom out onto the mainland to get her some help. It JUST. MAKES. SENSE. GUYS! This movie asks the deep questions such as: Why are there different breeds of zombies now? Whatever happened to the immunity subplot people could have to zombies that was talked about in the 2nd movie? How magical IS the placenta!? All that and more in this beautiful movie to look at, though you might question if you were roofied or not while watching it. Released in 2025, it stars Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ralph Fiennes, Alfie Williams, and special guest appearance in a Juicy Couture tracksuit: Jack O'Connell.

Katie and Bridget refuse to get on the train to the quarantined zombie land as they re-watch the 2nd installment in the series: 28 Weeks Later! We're back in London where apparently all the zombies have starved out and now the AMERICAN ARMY has come in to take over because that JUST. MAKES. SENSE!(?!) But unfortunately our beloved characters from the 1st movie are nowhere to be seen. Instead we've got siblings Andy and Tammy who are being reunited with their Dad, who shall be known as "Fucking-Don". When they find their Mom alive and well after their Dad gaslighted them into thinking he didn't leave her for dead, chaos ensues and yet another god damn zombie apocalypse commences. Although this time we at least have Jeremy Renner and Idris Elba to look at throughout it, so that's cool. We've got loads of questions, unlikeable/unknown characters, and little to no fun ethical conversations in this sequel to 28 Days Later, which doesn't really compare in the slightest. Released in 2007, it stars Jeremy Renner, Rose Byrne, Robert Carlyle, Harold Perrineau, Catherine McCormack, Idris Elba, Imogen Poots, and Mackintosh Muggleton.
