Congo – ep43 – 1995

“Congo” is what our daughter’s second grade teacher calls a “beautiful oops.” Yes, it’s totally wrong by every conceivable measure, but it’s also spectacularly bizarre. This movie has EVERYTHING. Hungry hippos, heat-seeking missiles, hot air balloons, an erupting volcano, Michael Crichton terror-science, Bruce Campbell screaming, a Ghostbuster doing an Indiana Jones impression but with a […]

Godzilla – ep42 – 1998

Nobody who likes Godzilla likes “Godzilla,” the mega-budget Hollywood monstrosity that made more money from its soundtrack than from box office returns. The guys behind “Independence Day” traded all their audience goodwill for a “fresh” new take on the famous movie titan, and by “fresh,” we mean borrowing cool parts from “Jurassic Park” and making

Days of Thunder – ep 41 – 1990

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / June 3, 2019

Fast cars. Cocky hotshots. A grizzled mentor. Flagrant sexual harassment. Mellow Yellow. The only things this manly, man’s-man movie needs are Tim “the Tool Man” Taylor grunts and a literal pissing match (though there are plenty of figurative ones). Tom Cruise is Cole Trickle, a Racing God who doesn’t know anything about cars. Nicole Kidman

Teen Wolf – ep 40 – 1985

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / May 29, 2019

In 1985, Michael J. Fox became a huge movie star with “Back to the Future,” which is seriously one of the greatest movies of all time. But we’re not here to talk about that, no sir, not when something like “Teen Wolf” came out the same year! The movie needs little explanation… a werewolf plays

Small Soldiers and Avengers Endgame – ep39 – 1998

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / May 6, 2019

“Small Soldiers” was going to be the next big thing… or that’s what Burger King thought when they decided to do a big product tie-in with this humans vs. action figures comedy adventure. It was supposed to be “Gremlins” for the next generation, and they even hired Joe Dante to direct just to make sure

Aladdin – OMRM – ep38 – 1992

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / May 1, 2019

I can show you a world that’s shining, shimmering and splendid. A world where Disney already made a pretty good movie about Aladdin back in the early 1990s. Robin Williams voiced the Genie in an iconic role, and Disney Animation was showing (a few) signs of cultural and gender diversity. Okay, so it was still

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / April 15, 2019

Am I the meanest? Am I the prettiest? Am I the baddest mofo low down around this town? Sho’Nuff! “The Last Dragon” is a dream of a movie – an absurd martial arts battle between the Shogun of Harlem (Sho Nuff!) and Leroy, a peace-seeking Bruce Lee fanatic in search of “The Glow.” If that’s

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / April 2, 2019

Imagine that you get a substandard haircut, and your imaginary friend says, “Got a stupid haircut! Ooh, look at my horrible stupid haircut! Looks just like her mother! Another little mega-bitch!” Or what about when you wear a cute purple dress, but your imaginary friend says, “It looks like a big BRUISE.” If any of

Everybody get up, it’s time to slam now. We got a real jam goin’ down. For so many Old Millennials, “Space Jam” was a significant moment. The biggest sports star in the world – Michael Jordan – heads to the big screen alongside Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd and some cartoon that looks like Daffy Duck,

Street Fighter – OMRM – ep 34 – 1994

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / March 6, 2019

The Academy gave “Green Book” the Best Picture trophy this year (yuck), so in protest we watched a movie that might be the exact opposite of an awards-bait drama. It’s “Street Fighter” The Movie, a film in which Jean Claude Van Damme enters a street fighting contest and… wait, how is that NOT the plot
