Legally Blonde Podcast Old Millennials Remember Movies

Legally Blonde – 2001 – ep 135

Don’t hate her because she’s beautiful. Hate her because she’s the smartest person in the room. While the marketing for “Legally Blonde” suggested a movie about a ‘dumb blonde squaring off against academia,’ it’s clear from the onset that Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods is more than equipped to handle Harvard Law School and the spoiled […]

Old Millennial Movie Review - Dune Part 2

Review: ‘Dune: Part Two’ pays off ‘Part One’ with more spectacle

Uncategorized / Angela Yoshiko / March 9, 2024

With six Oscar wins and widespread critical acclaim, 2021’s “Dune” embraced the awe-inspiring scope of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi classic. In embracing the complexity of the book, Denis Villeneuve’s film sacrificed telling the complete story in one movie, all without the guarantee of adapting the book’s second half. Fortunately, audiences embraced the various prophecies and giant

Hercules – 1997 – ep 133

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / September 6, 2022

“Hercules! Hercules Hercules!” – some Eddie Murphy character not in Disney’s “Hercules.” The first half of the 1990s was a pinnacle for Disney Animation. After the run of “The Little Mermaid” (technically 1989), “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin” and “The Lion King” (plus Pixar’s debut “Toy Story” in 1995), the studio had nowhere to go

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / July 28, 2022

All this movie really needed to be great was Brendan Frasier defeating a bunch of swordfighting ghouls before turning to the camera and grin-shrugging, “Mummies!”

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / July 21, 2022

Lt. Dan can’t go to space because he *might* get the measles, then Bill Paxton gets all sick up there. Maybe Tom Hanks is poisoning them, or they all have space dementia like Steve Buscemi.

Batman Forever – 1995 – ep 130

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts, Uncategorized / Angela Yoshiko / June 15, 2022

“Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.” The swooning words to Seal’s mega-hit song from the “Batman Forever” soundtrack most likely refers to the relationship between Batman/Bruce Wayne and Dr. Chase Meridian, and definitely NOT the working relationship between actors Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey. So the legend

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / May 18, 2022

What if you could travel back in time to undo all the stupid decisions you made as a teenager? Sounds like a fantasy of many Old Millennials out there, or really anyone who went to high school beyond yesterday. That’s (sort of) the premise of “Peggy Sue Got Married,” which sees the titular character played

Lake Placid – 1999 – ep 128

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / April 30, 2022

You might be surprised to learn that the little-seen creature-feature “Lake Placid” contains more sparring between Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Platt than it does giant crocodile mayhem. And it’s all the better for it! David E. Kelley, notable creator and writer of courtroom dramas like “The Practice,” “Boston Legal” and “Ally McBeal,” wrote this Croc
