Kindergarten Cop Podcast - Old Millennials

Kindergarten Cop – ep 52- 1990

In this Kindergarten Cop podcast, we share our memories of experiencing the deep acting range of Arnold Schwarzenegger (literally no sarcasm here), and we will let you know if this fun little comedy is appropriate for re-watching with your young kids (If you’re unsure about this, you need to actually go back and re-watch Kindergarten

Clueless 1995

Clueless – ep 51 – 1995

Would “Clueless” be as good without the star-making performance of Alicia Silverstone? As if! Amy Heckerling’s teen comedy classic covers all the hard-hitting problems facing rich teenagers in the mid-90s: Big hats, suck-and-blow, adult-size overalls and freeway driving. It’s a real Baldwin of a script, obviously, but Silverstone delivers one of the great comedic performances

Fried Green Tomatoes

Fried Green Tomatoes – ep 50 -1991

It’s not Steel Magnolias. You may remember liking Kathy Bates in Fried Green Tomatoes, especially the scene where she teaches some bimbos proper parking etiquette. That’s only a small part of this 1991 tearjerker, with most of the good stuff coming from the story of two, ahem, friends played by Mary Stuart Masterson and Mary-Louise

Baby's Day Out 1994

Baby’s Day Out – ep 48 – 1994

It’s a whole movie starring a BABY! In 1994, Hollywood executives bet $50 million on a script by John Hughes that inserted an infant into the “Home Alone” outline. Nobody saw it. Well, except one of our Old Millennial hosts. He saw it on opening day. “Baby’s Day Out” follows Baby Boo on an adventure

The Lion King – ep 47 – 1994

Few movies hold such a sacred place in the hearts of Old Millennials quite like 1994’s “The Lion King.” It was Disney Animation at the peak of its second Renaissance – great songs, a vibrant color palette, inspired vocal performances and detailed animation working together to create memorable, relatable characters. Everything just works. We revisit

Dante's-Peak-Ruth

Dante’s Peak – ep 46 – 1997

Be sure to put on those lava-proof tires and snorkel exhaust pipes, because we’re headed to “Dante’s Peak,” the second best place to live (population below 20,000) and the only volcano movie of 1997… oh, wait, damnit, Tommy Lee Jones made one too. Anyway, the better (?) volcano movie stars a James Bond and a

Long Kiss Goodnight Sam Jackson

Long Kiss Goodnight – ep45 – 1996

Most Samuel L. Jackson highlight reels lean hard on “Pulp Fiction” and his other Quentin Tarantino collaborations. But Jackson may deliver the most quips-per-frame in “The Long Kiss Goodnight,” thanks in part to a Shane Black script and a stoic co-star in the form of Geena Davis. She plays a suburban mom with amnesia. Then

Tremors poster

Tremors – ep44 – 1990

Underground worm monsters and Kevin Bacon. Obviously, “Tremors” is awesome. The humor-horror combination is attempted often but rarely replicated. So how does it work so well? Practical effects, hilarious reaction shots and the discipline to never let the movie go TOO BIG with antics. Angela and Tyler discuss a classic, as well as how so
