Pain don't hurt, but this movie does (in all the best ways). Patrick Swayze's hair stars as the shirtless, chain-smoking philosophy major who beats up a lot of rowdy beer drinkers. And if that wasn't enough, there's Sam Eliot's moustache, Kelly Lynch, Ben Gazarra, and wrestler Terry Funk all in a plot that would make Shakespeare jealous. Plus this …

We're back in the theater this week to take another look at Tron, the much maligned but visionary tale from 1982 Disney. The first film to employ computer generated graphics, this innovative movie paved the way for Jar Jar, Green Lantern, and the Scorpion King. Wait, what? The boys also talk about their other favorite horrible CGI moments and 80s w…

In this week's grumpy nugget episode, the boys present the first in a series of episodes dedicated to the phenomenon of nostalgia and it's impact on modern pop culture. But don't let that pretentious concept fool you, what they're really doing is goofing on all the recent trends ripping off stuff done years ago and claiming it for themselves. And w…

In ancient times, Hollywood made grown up crime thrillers and released them in theaters. I know, right? This week the boys go back revisit an already old Harrison Ford in one of his best, yet least talked about performances as the wrongly accused doctor being pursued by Tommy Lee Jones. An action blockbuster that never needed its plot summarized on…

The boys get soft this week and review a romantic comedy for Valentines and the awkwardness in palpable. Turns out this genre is not as cringe as they were lead to believe. It helps that Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan knock this amazing screenplay out of the park. Fall in love all over again as the boys talk about romance, loss, and Big League Chew for…

Good? No. Bad? Sure, but who cares? The boys open season 4 with one of their most-feared attempts, the fourth installment of Batman. Clooney, Uma, and Arnold serve more cheese than any movie goer should ever have to endure. Most critics think they're super clever ragging on this one. Congratulations you're a genius. We choose to embrace and behold.…

The boys squeeze into their high school prom tuxedos to hand out awards for the most notorious achievements from last season 's movie picks. There's pomp, circumstance, and more wigs than anyone should ever ask for. Do not dismiss this as a pretentious, self-serving clip show. We implore you. This season 3 retrospective honors all our new friends t…

This time were going back 40 years to look at income inequality, racial prejudice, and corporate greed. Thankfully none of these things exist anymore. Aykrord and Murphy rise above a script that shows its age a bit. Plus there's men in gorilla suits and Jamie Lee Curtis! So put your Kool's out on the rug immediately and check this one out.…

Ring in the New Year with joy, whimsy, and diabetes. Gene Wilder's legendary performance almost makes you forget most of the deeply disturbing content. Let's put 5 kids in a chocolate factory and make sure they all come out traumatized. Great kid movie! Plus, we also talk about the most unnecessary movie remakes and sequels. No Golden Ticket requir…

Come to the coast, have a few laughs. This week the boys go back to Nakatomi plaza to revisit this classic 80s action original that has somehow morphed into a Christmas movie(?) We don't know about that, but what we do know we like seeing vaguely European terrorists get what's coming to them by big bad Bruce. Plus we talk about our other favorite n…

Our Thanksgiving turkey for you. The boys go into the wayback to review this 70s cerebral scifi response to Star Wars. You've got Shatner's girdle, the follically-challenged Persis Khambatta (yeah, baby!), and the rest of the original cast for this slow burn but weirdly complete movie. Can a Star Wars fan and a Star Trek fan survive the same podcas…

Things get extra spooky as we …

As the title suggests, this is a heartfelt family film is a really inspirational tale. A triumph of the human chainsaw. Surprisingly less gory than you would think, this extremely well made horror film has set the standard for nearly 50 years. We're not entirely sure that's a good thing, but luckily, @aron_gagliardo is along to help us sort it out.…

Our special Halloween series continues with this mega campy 90's adaptation of Dracula. Gary Oldman suffers though his inadequate castmates in the visually heavy tale. The accents are wonderfully awful and Keanu's mystery hair makes this one a real joy for the gang. It's extra spooky fun because our Alaskan homesteading warrior queen @mollsmusings …

We kick off our seasonal Halloween series with the ultimate midnight movie. Bruce Campbell's subtle, nuanced performance is only matched by gallons of blood and entrails for all. Fiercely original and creative, this groundbreaking movie has been a horror benchmark for generations. Demons, flying eyeballs, and Member's Only jackets should be enough …

Justin & Mike dust off their lab coats this week to look back at this iconic Mel Brooks comedy from 1974. Non-stop jokes and sight gags aplenty.

Bruce Willis & Ben Affleck are tasked to save the world and it only gets more plausible from there. The boys have a laugh riot riffing thru this quintessential 90s movie.

Imagine not wanting every part of your life available to the public. Stupid, right? Luckily, we're way more civilized today. Jim Carrey delivers an amazing performance without even once talking with his butt. The gang is so inspired, they talk about their own favorite reality shows and embarrass themselves accordingly. Our favorite Alaskan warrior …

This is that one where Rocky beats the odds. Also, Mr.T and Hulk Hogan take a break from their London stage careers to lend a hand. So you get all of that plus Frank Stallone's disco soundtrack? Not sure why you would ask for anything else. Plus the boys are so inspired, they discuss their favorite sports comeback movies.…

This week we're looking at the sweetest thing to come out of the 80s since Skittles. Both charming and quotable, this simple fairy tale is a fan favorite. Are we too grumpy and cynical to still enjoy it? Fortunately we're joined by special guest Dr. K, @pinotjones to help sort it all out. #theprincessbride #robinwright #caryelwes #inconceivable #an…

Hang on to your dingos. This post-apocalyptic action classic set a standard for high speed chases, amazing stunt work, and ass-less leather chaps. Mel talks 16 times and there's a lord Humungus among us. And to make it even better, America's sweetheart @mollsmusings is in the studio this week!Kirjoittanut Grumpy Nostalgia

It's Stallone vs Snipes in this 90's sci-fi/action flaming bag of dog doo. The total disregard of human life and public property is proudly on display for all to see.

Arnold does his best to keep this one watchable, but even he cant compete with the dinosaurs playing in the theater next-door. There's a super annoying kid, a lot of explosions, and MC Hammer though. So there's that. Come listen and Mike and Justin continue their Season 3 Self Punishment Roadshow.Kirjoittanut Grumpy Nostalgia
