This week on The VHS Club, we’re standing out — above the crowd — and hitting the road with Max and Goofy for the ultimate 90s animated road trip: A Goofy Movie (1995) 🛣️🎸

Packed with Powerline bops, mall hijinks, and some surprisingly tender father–son moments, this movie has only grown in stature since its VHS days. What once felt like a goofy side project now reads as a heartfelt, deeply relatable story about parenting, growing up, and learning how to connect — even when you’re wildly out of sync.

Join us as we:
🎶 Sing along to an all-time great Disney soundtrack (yes, that song)
🧀 Revisit Pauly Shore’s “Leaning Tower of Cheeza” and other endlessly quotable bits
🚗 Soak in peak 90s road trip vibes and questionable parenting decisions
❤️ Talk about why the emotional beats hit harder as adults
📼 Explore how this movie became a full-blown cult classic

It’s funny, earnest, and overflowing with 90s charm — the kind of movie you either wore out on VHS or discovered later and instantly wondered how it ever flew under the radar.

So lace up your hi-tops, crank the Powerline, and get ready to stand out… above the crowd.

This week on The VHS Club, we’re diving heart-first into Titanic (1997) — the epic romance that broke our teenage hearts, dominated pop culture, and absolutely destroyed our VHS rewinders.

We were obsessed. With the movie. With the music. With the two-tape VHS box set. But mostly… with Leonardo DiCaprio. What starts as a sweeping historical spectacle quickly becomes an all-consuming emotional experience, complete with forbidden romance, unforgettable quotes, and a runtime that dared you to commit.

Join us as we:
🚢 Relive every iconic moment that lives rent-free in our brains
💔 Talk Jack & Rose, forever love, and peak 90s romantic obsession
🎶 Bask in the power of Céline Dion’s era-defining ballad
🔥 Revisit that steamy car scene
🚪 Reignite the eternal door debate (you know the one)

It’s big, earnest, emotionally overwhelming, and impossible to forget — the kind of movie you watched once as a teen and carried with you forever, feelings and all.

So grab your life jacket, brace for a nostalgia tsunami, and remember: it’s been 27 years… and we still have just as many feelings.

This week on The VHS Club, we’re asking a very important question: is Batman Forever secretly awesome… or just a neon-soaked fever dream in a rubber suit?

Joel Schumacher’s high-voltage, wildly divisive entry in the Bat-franchise is loud, colorful, stacked with stars, and absolutely committed to the bit. With Jim Carrey unleashed at peak chaos, Tommy Lee Jones chewing every inch of scenery, Val Kilmer’s pouty Bruce Wayne, and Nicole Kidman operating at maximum thirst, this movie dares you to either embrace the camp or reject it entirely.

Join us as we:
🦇 Revisit the neon-drenched Gotham that defined mid-90s Batman
🎭 Talk Jim Carrey’s Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones’ unhinged energy
🖤 Discuss Val Kilmer’s underrated Bruce Wayne era
🔥 Acknowledge Nicole Kidman’s iconic commitment to the vibe
🧠 Debate whether this movie is misunderstood genius or pure chaos
🧍‍♂️ Yes… we talk about the nipples

It’s loud, messy, stylish, and impossible to ignore — the kind of movie you either wore out on VHS or spent years arguing about with friends.

So throw on the black light, embrace the camp, and riddle us this: are you ready to defend Batman Forever?

In this episode, we’re joined by:

Josh — fellow Tater Tot and proud Batman Forever defender.

This week on The VHS Club, we’re hopping into the DeLorean and going all the way back… to the future ⚡
To celebrate the anniversary of the original film, we’re revisiting the entire Back to the Future trilogy — one of the most perfectly engineered, endlessly rewatchable franchises of the 80s.

From 1955 to 2015 to the Wild West, this trilogy somehow balances big sci-fi ideas, impeccable comedy timing, and pure blockbuster charm. It’s a rare case where the original is iconic, the sequels are bold, and the whole thing still feels like lightning in a bottle.

Join us as we:
🕰️ Break down the best (and weirdest) moments across all three films
🛹 Talk hoverboards, time paradoxes, and peak Biff behavior
🎬 Celebrate why the first movie remains basically flawless
📼 Debate which sequel truly reigns supreme
👟 Give Doc Brown his long-overdue flowers as an underrated fashion icon

It’s fast, funny, and endlessly inventive — the kind of trilogy you can drop into at any point and immediately get pulled along for the ride.

So set your clocks, grab a Pepsi Free, and remember: roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.

This week on The VHS Club, we’re heading back into the water for the 50th anniversary of Jaws — the movie that redefined summer blockbusters and permanently ruined beach days for generations.

Steven Spielberg’s thriller is a masterclass in tension, character, and restraint. With an unforgettable John Williams score, iconic performances, and a shark you barely see (but never forget), Jaws didn’t just scare audiences — it changed how movies were made, marketed, and experienced.

Join us as we:
🦈 Revisit the suspense that still works half a century later
🎶 Break down John Williams’ all-time great score
🎭 Talk unforgettable characters like Brody, Hooper, and Quint
🎬 Dig into the shark effects, production chaos, and happy accidents
📼 Discuss how Jaws created the modern summer blockbuster

It’s tense, smart, endlessly rewatchable, and somehow still feels fresh — the kind of movie you can drop into at any point and instantly lock in.

So grab your popcorn, stay out of the water, and remember: you’re gonna need a bigger boat.

This week on The VHS Club, Nat is back — and she’s bringing backup. Nat’s brother Andrew joins the show for a full-throttle deep dive into the dystopian, satirical, cyborg-cop masterpiece that is RoboCop (1987).

Paul Verhoeven’s sci-fi action classic is loud, brutal, deeply funny, and way smarter than it first appears. Beneath the exploding squibs and corporate excess is a sharp critique of capitalism, media, and power — all wrapped in one of the most unforgettable action heroes of the 80s.

Join us as we:
🤖 Break down the hyper-violent, gloriously over-the-top action
💥 Talk ED-209, corporate villains, and iconic line deliveries
📺 Revisit the fake commercials and razor-sharp satire
🎬 Dig into what makes RoboCop more than just bullets and metal
📼 Debate whether RoboCop is the ultimate 80s action hero

It’s brutal, hilarious, and strangely thoughtful — the kind of movie that feels like pure action chaos until you realize it’s been saying something smart the whole time.

So grab your directives, protect the innocent, and get ready for a rewatch that proves RoboCop still hits hard decades later.

In this episode, we’re joined by:

Andrew — Nat’s brother and fellow RoboCop appreciator, bringing fresh perspective and maximum enthusiasm for Verhoeven’s madness.

This week on The VHS Club, Katie is joined by Brian from The Cinema Psychos Show as we blast off into one of the strangest and most lovable deep cuts of the 80s: Explorers (1985).

Before Ethan Hawke and River Phoenix were household names, they were building DIY spacecrafts out of junkyard scraps and communicating with aliens through dreams. Explorers is a scrappy sci-fi oddity — equal parts wonder, weirdness, and pure “what were they thinking?” energy — and somehow that’s exactly what makes it work.

Join us as we:
🛠️ Break down the ultimate nerdy kid dream setup
👾 Talk cartoony aliens with a questionable love of bad TV
🚀 Debate whether this movie actually makes sense
🎞️ Explore why Explorers still deserves a place on your VHS shelf
📼 Appreciate the charm of ambitious ideas and messy execution

It’s chaotic, imaginative, and deeply 80s — the kind of movie you stumble across late at night and never quite forget.

So fire up your Tilt-A-Whirl spaceship and get ready for a nostalgic ride through sci-fi that’s as baffling as it is charming.

In this episode, we’re joined by:

This week on The VHS Club, ducks fly together as Katie is joined by fellow VHS Club member Terrell for the ultimate rewatch of The Mighty Ducks trilogy — D1, D2, and D3.

From pee-wee underdogs to Junior Goodwill Games champs to high school drama and varsity rivalries, these movies defined a generation of Disney sports fandom. Packed with quotable lines, big emotional swings, and wildly questionable coaching tactics, The Mighty Ducks trilogy is pure 90s heart wrapped in hockey jerseys.

Join us as we:
🏒 Relive every flying V, slapshot, and Coach Bombay moment
🦆 Talk favorite Ducks, MVPs, and unforgettable characters
🥅 Break down the best games across all three movies
📼 Debate whether D3 still holds up
❤️ Dig into the friendship, redemption arcs, and peak 90s feels

It’s loud, earnest, and endlessly nostalgic — the kind of trilogy that made you believe teamwork could solve literally anything.

So lace up your skates, grab your jersey, and get ready to quack as we head back to the golden age of Disney sports movies.

This week on The VHS Club, it’s time to dust off the shoulder pads and cue up the Starship soundtrack as Katie is joined by Rachel Harris to revisit her all-time favorite movie: Mannequin (1987).

This gloriously bonkers 80s rom-com is pure wish fulfillment — part fantasy, part department-store fever dream, and completely committed to its vibe. From Emmy’s mannequin-to-muse transformation to Hollywood Montrose stealing every single scene, Mannequin is loud, sparkly, and impossible to forget.

Join us as we:
🛍️ Revisit the over-the-top fashion and window-display magic
🛵 Talk department store adventures and retail fantasy logic
🎶 Celebrate that iconic Starship anthem
💄 Appreciate Hollywood Montrose as a true 80s icon
💘 Discuss why this movie still makes us believe in love… and mannequins

It’s ridiculous, romantic, and drenched in neon — the kind of movie that lived permanently in the VCR rotation during sleepovers.

So grab your Aqua Net, rewind your tape, and get ready for a nostalgic ride through one of the most wonderfully weird rom-coms of the decade.
