In a battle of prominent sequels of the 1990s, only the best make it to the Final Four… unless one of the Old Millennials Hosts screws up the seeding… then anything can happen! That’s right, “Lethal Weapon 4” has a shot at glory!
In our third installment of a (late) March tradition, Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela compare brackets and argue about 32 (ish) 90s-era sequels to decide the best of the best. Keep in mind, these are sequels, and, well, most of them aren’t really that great.
Our bracket begins with four definitive quadrants:
- Comedy Sequels – including titles like “Addams Family Values,” “Wayne’s World 2” and an explosive play-in game between “Hot Shots: Part Deux” and a “Very Brady Sequel.” Also, listen to Tyler needlessly defend “City Slickers 2: The Legend of Curly’s Gold.”
- Sequels for the Kids – can anything beat Pixar’s “Toy Story 2”? “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York” and a couple “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” sequels want a shot. Also, watch out “3 Ninjas Knuckle Up.” LOL, it has no shot.
- Blockbuster Sequels – Tyler and Angela set up a bloodbath between some of the decade’s most successful films, from “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” to various “Batmans,” a “Jurassic Park” and more.
- Outliers and oddities – Listen, don’t think to hard about the logic of this final pack of nine titles (which includes a battle between “Look Who’s Talking” sequels. We couldn’t fit everything easily, okay! Anyway, check out a “Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit,” an “Army of Darkness” and a beloved “Star Trek” entry.
Tyler plays the game with his heart, while Angela builds a complicated points system to determine the TRUE choice. There will be disagreements. There will be tears. There will be some baffling movie opinions.
Also in this episode, Tyler shares a few highlights from his virtual experience at the South by Southwest 2022 film festival, including takes on movies available now or will soon be available. Also, Angela breaks Tyler’s heart over the new “West Side Story.”
