Chasing Amy – ep 99 – 1997

Well would you look at this morose *expletive deleted* right here. Smells like someone *expletive deleted* in your cereal. It’s important to remember just how well-received “Chasing Amy” was back in 1997. Writer/director Kevin Smith followed his breakthrough debut “Clerks” with the then-ignored “Mallrats.” Smith scaled back for a relationship drama about Holden McNeil (Ben

Groundhog Day – ep 98 – 1993

Well it’s Groundhog Day… again. The Old Millennials tackle a genuine classic.

Trading Places – ep95 – 1983

Nature vs. nurture. Eddie Murphy vs. the establishment. Jamie Lee Curtis vs. shirts. “Trading Places,” from John Landis, is one of the defining Murphy comedies of the 80s. Plus Dan Aykroyd is there doing a “rich” accent! You know the story: Two evil rich guys (Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche) orchestrate a bet in which

A Christmas Story – ep94 – 1983

Fa la la la la, la la la casual racism. Aside from the slight blemish at the end of the film, “A Christmas Story” remains a certifiable holiday classic, thanks in no small part to the film’s annual Christmas Day marathon on TBS. The story of Ralphie and his quest to obtain a Red Ryder BB

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer – ep93 – 1964

We break all the rules with this holiday episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies.
