  • Wall Street

    It's Patreon request week over here at That's Basically the 80s. Chris and Corey trading stocks and letting Gordon Gecko teach them how to make it in the big time. This classic movie is a hard hitting drama that gets into how far someone will go to make it in the big time world of investments. However, Chris and Corey spent longer talking about elevators and their video production class in high school than the actual movie. 

    Thank you to our Patreon supporter Chris, we hope you like this "review". 

    This is Wall Street!

  • Gremlins

    The Holiday season is upon us! This week's episode takes place in a sleepy little town where half the people get murdered on Christmas and the only response from the owner of these creatures is to say "You aren't ready yet, maybe one day" Check your chimneys and cuddle up by the fire for this one. What happens if you feed Chris and Corey Rum after midnight? They go get drinks with Phoebe Cates and a couple of post-Mogwai of course! 

    This is Gremlins

  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles

    Join us this week as we dive into a the best (the only?) Thanksgiving movie from the 80s. Who knew that a trip home to Chicago for Thanksgiving Dinner could go so wrong. Whether you are traveling by burned up cars, broken down buses, sexy taxi cabs or the back of a truck with an aggressive dog, this movie will show you what will go wrong. But at the end of the day this movie really tugs at the heart string in only a way Howard (John) Hughes can. From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving everyone and thank you for your support. 

    This is Planes, Trains and Automobiles
