LATEST EPISODE 🔗
Wilson, we hardly knew ya. Yes, Tom Hanks' character really had a ball in 2000's Cast Away. As did audiences. The Robert Zemeckis film would go on to make over $400 million worldwide and earn Hanks an Oscar nomination. But now, decades later, are we just a little seasick of these deserted island ad…
PREVIOUS EPISODES 🔗
Get in losers, we’re going revisiting. Is there a more quotable, meme-able movie than Mean Girls? Back in 2004, the movie had audiences and critics laughing while making stars of Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, and more. The Tina Fey script received accolades while Lindsay Lohan cemented her statu…
“Swing away!” Back in 2002, the M. Night Shyamalan movie “Signs” knocked it out of the park. Featuring Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, and roughly 90 seconds of alien sightings, the sci-fi hit was a crowd and critic pleaser, raking in over $400 million at the box office. But now, decades later, do we…
Season 8 Premiere! Simple math would suggest that an out-of-control Jack Black, combined with spoiled know-it-all kids, and an added element of rock music, would equal a loud, patience-testing moviegoing experience. But back in 2003, the result of the film School of Rock was big numbers at the box …
It's Old Roommate's 7th Anniversary Special! Plus, our 6th Annual Roomie Awards! Yes, it’s the revisit of our revisits. We talk about the good, the bad, and the boring of everything we watched this season. Who will win the Roomie for Best Performance? Or Worst Line of Movie Dialogue? The episode cu…
“He permed me!” Shelley Long donned red hair, a permanent smile, and a wide array of designer dresses for 1989’s Troop Beverly Hills. Upon release, the comedy didn’t sell nearly enough Wilderness Girls’ cookies to break even at the box office, and it got no merit badges from critics either. But now…
“I’ll meet you at the place near the thing where we went that time.” Yes, 1987’s Broadcast News had quite a script, and quite a cast led by Holly Hunter, William Hurt and Albert Brooks. A lopsided love triangle, the three leads mismanaged emotions, insecurities, careers, and work timelines througho…
Kevin Kline and an Oscar-nominated Joan Cusack have a gay old time in 1997’s In & Out. Back then, the comedy was a modest hit with critics and audiences as it juggled social commentary and slapstick humor while tackling a (then) hot-topic theme: homosexuality (gasp!). But now, decades later, sh…
“The Fugitive” RevisitedA one-armed man wreaks havoc on the life of Dr. Richard Kimble in the 1993 film, The Fugitive. Based on the 1960s TV series, the movie pulled out all the cinematic stops and became a runaway hit, making nearly $370 million at the box office. The Academy soon followed, garner…
Kevin Bacon and Denise Richards bared nearly all, respectively, in 1998's Wild Things. Yes, the steamy, sexy, swampy thriller left no champagne bottle unturned. The movie was a modest hit with audiences and critics, thanks, in part, to a promised threesome scene with Richards, Matt Dillon, and Neve…
