Armageddon

Relive the bloat of the late 90s and crazy what if scenarios of the late Clinton administration as the society watches their first movie of this season with 1998's Armageddon. This mega blockbuster, directed by Michael Bay and starring a cast of established and then-establishing stars headed by Bruce Willis, was a board room delight as theatergoers flocked in droves.

Sunday Night Special: Moochie of Pop Warner Football

The boys are back in town and take the field to watch the 1960 TV special Moochie of Pop Warner Football: From Ticonderoga to Disneyland, directed by William Beaudine and starring Kevin "Moochie" Corcoran as himself... kind of. If you don't know Moochie, stop and go directly back to "Old Yeller" or last year's summer special where he's in little league. If you don't know football, go back to "Gus."

What is it about 80s-era cop movies? Is it the wisecracks? The great villains who seem to always use fish markets as a front for their wrongdoing? The neverending fight against corruption? Perhaps it's as simple as appreciation for a sultry sax part. These are the questions we aim to tackle in this week's episode, where we watch the 1989 Touchstone Pictures vehicle Turner & Hooch, directed by Roger Spottiswoodle and starring funnyman Tom Hanks, Mare Winningha...
