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 – ep 46 – 1997

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / July 21, 2019

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 – ep45 – 1996

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / July 11, 2019

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 – ep44 – 1990

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / June 30, 2019

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

Congo – ep43 – 1995

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / June 19, 2019

“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

Old Millennials Remember Movies, Podcasts / Angela Yoshiko / June 11, 2019

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

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
