The Gen X Files

To close out our Doubledoo-Switcheroo month, we cover the George Burns vehicle 18 Again!, that barely features George Burns. Also starring Charlie Schlatter, Tony Roberts, Anita Morris, and Red Buttons. Directed by Paul Flaherty.

This week, we have the pleasure of watching a good body-switching movie: Vice Versa, starring Judge Reinhold, Fred Savage, Corrine Bohrer, and Swoosie Kurtz. Written by Dick Clement and Ian Le Fresnais with direction from Brian Gilbert.

Well, I guess after a good movie, we had to have a bad one. This week we're covering Like Father Like Son, starring Dudley Moore (who really, really tries in this movie), Kirk Cameron, Margaret Colin, Catherine Hicks, and a super sleazy Sean Astin. There is no plot, no character development, and even the actors had no idea what the movie was trying to say.

Frist up in our Doubledoo-Switcheroo month, we're starting with the grandmama of the body switching movies, Freaky Friday. Starring Barbara Harris, Jodie Foster, John Astin, Mark McClure, and Sparky Marcus. It's way more fun than you remember!

Join your ol' Stepdads as we discuss awful movies and try to prove that the three movies we watched this month were the worst movies or if there are movies that are worse. Spoiler alert: there isn't. We also discuss America's upcoming birthday, as well as the movies, TV, and video games we've been playing, or are excited about.

You know, after The Garbage Pail Kids Movie and Mac and Me, we really thought that The Wizard was going to be the best of the month and boy, oh boy, were we wrong. A 90 minute commercial for Nintendo that can't even do that right, The Wizard is directed by Todd Holland and stars Fred Savage, Jenny Lewis, Beau Bridges, and Christian Slater.

We didn't think something could be worse than The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, but boy howdy were we wrong. No complaints about the cast; they did what they could with a script (?), lazy direction, and a producer that wanted everything yesterday. Throw in the constant McDonald's sponsorship and aliens with butthole mouths that treat Coca-Cola like the elixir of life, and you've got the long-running joke from Paul Rudd that is Mac and Me. Starring Christine Ebersole, Jade Calegory, Jonathan Ward, Tina Caspary, and Lauren Stanley.

Welcome to June Doom V! This June, we're covering some of the worst disasters of the '80s! First up, it's The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, the awful adaptation of a trading card series that not only doesn't make sense, it's one of the most unsettling movies ever made. Starring Mackenzie Astin, Anthony Newley, and Katie Barberi, with Phil Phondacaro, Jim Cummings, and Debbie Lee Carrington.

Join your ol' Stepdads as we discuss great sequels, movies, TV shows, and video games. Enjoy this, because next month is going to get weird.

To close out our Not-So-Terrible-2s month, we're covering what could be a perfect sequel: Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Written and Directed by James Cameron, he brings what he learned on Aliens and blew it up, even bigger. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton, Robert Patrick, Edward Furlong, Earl Boen, and Joe Morton.
