Here on the Large Marge Sent Us podcast, Sweety and Sweetie are our names and nostalgia is our game! Once a week (or more if you're lucky!) we watch movies from the 80s and 90s that shaped our childhoods and then have a sisterly chat about them. We usually sing songs and there's about a 100% chance we'll crack up with bouts of laughter. We hope you will too! So come join us and step back into a time when life was good and the movies were even better

    The Fifth Element

    The Fifth Element

    This week we're covering the Fifth Element! A kooky but fun Sci-Fi adventure starring the one and only Mr. Brucey Willis. This episode is a first for us--watching the movie then doing the podcast 3 weeks later! Whoopsies. We may have forgotten the plot, but we will never forget LeeLoo's bad orange dye job or the creepy brown blood trail oozing down Gary Oldman's face. And thanks to this movie, we're kicking off an unofficial Bruce Willis month. Everybody wins! Stay tuned next time for Armageddon

    Punky Brewster

    Punky Brewster

    Hey hey! It's been a nice 2 month break following the birth of Sweeti Jr.  but we're back and ready to bring you the important discussions you've all been craving. This week we're jumping into the 80s pop culture revolution that was Punky Brewster. An adorable show about the coolest girl to ever live who has a cute dog named Brandon and who lives with a sweet old man photographer/office manager named Henry. Both Sweeties agree, this might just have to be our new show we binge--it's that cozy. Join us as we break down the pilot (a 3 part episode arc!), Cheaters Never Win and Sweetie's all time number 1 memory: Cherrie Lifesaver--about that time Cherrie hid in an old refridgerator and almost died!

    The Abyss

    The Abyss

    It's the miracle of miracles! The Abyss is finally available to stream! Though it's not technically a baby movie, it does talk about how we breathe in water for 9 months and we're fine, so we're counting this one don't worry. Join us as we talk about James Cameron's water obsession, why submarine's are the worst, and why lab rats are less terrifying than street rats. This might be our last ep before Sweeti Jr. makes his arrival, so we'll see you on the otherside!

    Honey I Blew Up the Kid

    Honey I Blew Up the Kid

    It's almost time for us to meet Sweeti Jr! Sweetie will be giving birth to the latest member of the Sweetie Club any day now, so we decided to prepare by watching some classic movies about babies. First up, the sequel to the hit 80s flick Honey, I Shrunk the Kids----Honey, I Blew Up the Kid! 
    Following the Szalinski's to Las Vegas, this sequel introduces 2 year old Adam who accidentally gets in the way of Dad's new enlarging laser at the lab and turns into a giant baby that takes over Vegas.
    While this one doesn't hold a candle to the OG, the Sweeties were touched by how much they could relate to the toddler moments. Plus, how can we ever hate one of our number one sweeties Rick Moranis!?

    Batman and Robin

    Batman and Robin

    It's a new year but same old Sweeties. Join us as we dive into one of the worst movies ever made--Batman and Robin! Following the much better received Batman Forever, Batman and Robin replaces Val with George but keeps around whiny Chris O'Donnell as Robin. This movie is a hot mess ya'll. From the endless ice puns, to the weird accent work of Uma, to the sky high stilettos they stick Alicia Silverstone in---what's not to hate?

    Ernest Saves Christmas

    Ernest Saves Christmas

    We did it! We hit our goal of 2 Christmas movies this year. Oh, how times have changed. With our final selection, we're bringing you one of our least favorite characters---Ernest, in the holiday classic: Ernest Saves Christmas.  In a true Christmas miracle however, we both decided this was pretty sweet and probably the least Ernesty of all the Ernest movies (we assume). 
    Also, very exciting announcement that Sweetie Jr. makes her very first podcasting debut in this episode, you don't want to miss it!
    Happy Holidays from the Sweetie Club!
