Reasons to dump you..‪.‬ Reasons to dump you

With Toronto doubling for Chicago, and a 24 year old Elizabeth Shue playing 17 year old Chris Parker, things are not entirely as you might remember in Adventures in Babysitting. Listen in for an extraordinary ‘night on the town’, where we uncover numerous problems with the movie, and discover the true hero of the entire story. (Hint, it’s also the character who most deserves a follow up film).

Does rain cause electrical cables to spark? Do all exotic dancers play the drums? Why do eighties cops never follow the rules? And ultimately, will Tango & Cash live up to Brian’s teenage memories? All this and more in this thrilling instalment of Reasons to Dump You. 

Join us as we saunter our way through Bad City, losing ourselves inside the western-horror-romance mash-up that is Ana Lily Amirpour‘s A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night. Question is, do we witness the most romantic cinematic scene ever created, and what on earth is the significance of the cat?

We’re heading to the White House to figure out what the deal was with Dick Cheney and to learn more about his disturbing legacy. Vice gives us amazing performances from all involved, and kudos to hair and make up, but ultimately do our opinions on the film bring us closer together or push us further apart? As usual, expect some agreement, some argument and always general relationship frustration.

We’re off to the Slaughtered Lamb for a cup of tea and a chat with the locals, so join us by the fire as we discuss comedy/horror mash-up An American Werewolf in London. We muse over many aspects, not least where are David’s parents and how did he pay for that bus journey? Arguments arise over the werewolf transformation scene and Brian seems to struggle to say the word sex. If you need any more convincing to listen, we somehow also manage to mention Frasier Crane, Rod Stewart and Lee Mack. You’re very welcome. 

Who knew that The Matrix could spark such an emotional response? If you also feel passionately about it, then you’re not gonna want to miss hearing Brian’s thoughts, feelings and general love for the film. Oh, and Sinéad‘s there too. For facts if nothing else ;)
