    Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel - Episode 35 - September 1989

    For the final episode of "Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel, 1989," Matt B and Brian P are going back to school (Westerburg High, specifically) for a deep dive into what is perhaps the greatest dark comedy/teen-movie satire of all time, HEATHERS, starring Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Kim Walker, Shannen Doherty (RIP), and Lisanne Falk. After that, they'll follow Winona into the afterlife as she summons everybody's favorite Neitherworld bioexorcist, Michael Keaton, in Tim Burton's 36-years later supernatural comedy sequel, BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE. Finally, they'll take Gen-X "auteur" Kevin Smith to task with a mini-review of THE 4:30 MOVIE & spitball the possibilities of their own multiplex-based feature film, before detonating the podcast itself, J.D. & Veronica style. Get those croquet mallets, Corn Nuts, and red scrunchies ready, and don't miss your last chance to join the Gen-X clique!

    Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel - Episode 34 - August 1989

    August is Artificial Intelligence Month at the Multiplex, as Matt B and Brian P engage in full-scale "clone war" and employ dueling chatbots to help them review a slew of end-of-summer 1989 dumper releases. Join them for their retroactive takes on the Steve Martin domestic comedy PARENTHOOD, the Sly Stallone prison thriller LOCK UP, the Richard Dreyfuss racetrack farce LET IT RIDE, and the John Hughes/John Candy team-up UNCLE BUCK. Then, stay tuned as the boyz get extra "synthetic" with a review of ALIEN: ROMULUS and their rankings of the entire ALIEN franchise. Summer is winding down, and so is the Multiplex in this raucous, AI-assisted penultimate episode. Satisfy your existential shenanigan cravings and taste the August 1989 absurdity!

    Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel - Episode 33 - July 1989

    The dog dayz of summer are upon us, and the Multiplex has the July 1989 canine slobber to prove it! Join Matt B & Brian P as they "decaffeinate" some racist South African baddies with Danny Glover & Mel Gibson in LETHAL WEAPON 2, discover if Meg Ryan & Billy Crystal can just be besties in WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, chase criminals (and their own tails) with Tom Hanks & a drooling French mastiff in TURNER & HOOCH, and finally drag returning champion and special guest Jeff M to the sandy finish line for his contractually obligated "solo review" of WEEKEND AT BERNIE'S. After that, they'll check in on two '80s-related Summer of 2024 sequels, BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F and MAXXXINE. Plus, Matt B logs mini-reviews of LONGLEGS and TWISTERS, as Brian attempts to inject his special brand™ of Absurdity into the mix. Get your flip flops and AirPods ready, because this is a super-sized Gen-X episode you don't wanna miss!!!

    Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel - Episode 32 - June 1989

    The Gen-X prequel fun continues, as Brian P and Matt B take a long look back at four key June 1989 summer movie releases. Join them (and a very special guest) as they "seize the day" and take a stand against literary mediocrity in DEAD POETS SOCIETY, battle a river of sentient pink slime with the original Ghostbustin' crew in GHOSTBUSTERS II, get small in Rick Moranis's backyard in HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS, and deliver steamin' hot pizza pies, Bed-Stuy: Do or Die style, with Spike Lee in DO THE RIGHT THING. Then stay tuned as the boyz flash-forward into 2024 with new reviews of Richard Linklater's HIT MAN and the late June creature-feature prequel A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE. Summer is here, and it is HOT! So duck into the Multiplex for some *free* flashback A/C (if you please).
