You're No Fun Anymore

YNFA Productions

Does this thing still hold up? That is the question we ask ourselves in every episode of this podcast, in which we revisit the shows that have stuck in our brains, for reasons both good and bad. Join us on a fortnightly journey as we tackle our nostalgia for movies that might not be as good as we remember them being.

    YNFA 075: Hook, or Peter Pandering

    Throw some invisible food and get ready to never grow up as we fly into 1991’s Hook. Why was the media of the 80s and 90s so full of daddy issues? Was Robin Williams going for restrained in this role, or phoning it in? How much of the Millennial generation considers Rufio their first crush? Was there any scenery left unchewed after Dustin Hoffman was done with it? We’ll tell you once we find our marbles,

    YNFA 074: The First Wives Club, or Divorces of Nature

    Put on your power pantsuit and exact some just revenge as we sashay into 1992’s The First Wives Club. What kind of idiot lets Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler, or Diane Keaton go? How do we get justice for Stockard Channing? And can we please get more middle-aged dance sequences in movies? Answers with a healthy side of schadenfreude can be found in this week’s episode.

    YNFA 073: The Good Son, or We Need to Talk About Kevin McCallister

    Hide your dogs and work on your grip strength as we drop into 1993’s The Good Son. How does a parent overlook a whole murder shed? Why were Hallmark-level thrillers being released on the big screen in the 90s? Is this movie the most forceful argument for everyone needing to go to therapy—but with, like, a capable therapist? And are Elijah Wood and Macaulay Culkin the ultimate latchkey kids? If you survive dangling off this precarious cliff, we’ll tell you everything you need to know.

    YNFA 72: Adventures in Babysitting, or Desperately Seeking Shue

    Rev up that Camaro and make sure your shoulderpads are on straight as we peel into 1987’s Adventures in Babysitting. How dare Disney censor the most famous line in this movie, and why is swearing verboten but racism and misogyny ok? Is Elizabeth Shue the ultimate teenage girl hero? And is young Vincent D'Onofrio even more of an Asgardian beefcake than Chris Hemsworth? We’ll give you some answers as soon as we get back from the wilds of Chicago.

    YNFA 71: L.A. Confidential, or The Big Sleep-y Performances

    Let’s go back to 1950s L.A.—actually no, let’s not, it was a sucky time for women and minorities, so let’s be starkly reminded of that as we revisit L.A. Confidential. Is Guy Pierce wearing slutty little glasses? How much noir is too much noir? Does winning an Oscar make up for the hell Kim Basinger’s character goes through in this movie? And why did Kevin Spacey have to turn out to be such a creeper when he had so much talent? Join us as we tussle with these questions and dust off our film studies theorizing.

    YNFA 70: Double Impact, or Far East of Beatin’

    Slick your hair back and find your long lost twin as we high kick it into high gear with Jean-Claude Van Damme’s Double Impact. Who is Randa and why has she been missing from our lives for so long? And why are so many of us (apart from Dayna) willing to overlook this movie’s serious shortcomings, just because of JCVD’s glorious glutes? You’ll find few answers, but plenty of gushing and a little bit of ranting in this week’s ep.

    YNFA 69: Waiting for Guffman, or Bye Bye Corky

    Grab your stools and head on down to the Dairy Queen as we reach for our hometown slice of fame with Christopher Guest’s Waiting for Guffman. Is this the most realistic depiction of local theater dynamics ever committed to film? Can we please make Catherine O’Hara Queen of Improv already? How did Bob Balaban find a symphony-level orchestra for this small town production? And did Parker Posey’s Libby Mae Brown “Just do the cones” so her Victoria Ratliff could “Piper, Noooooo”? The one thing we can all agree on is that this movie is flawless and Corky St Clair is a genius.

    YNFA 68: Field of Dreams, or Guided by Voices

    Mow down that cornfield and invite all your favorite dead baseball players as we take a swing at 1989’s Field of Dreams. Are daddy issues a prerequisite for watching this movie, or can you just enjoy seeing Ray Liotta in baseball pants? Does Kevin Costner’s pancake butt and 80s hair take away from or define his hotness? Can Amy Madigan please show up to Congress tomorrow and deliver some stringent monologues until everyone wises up? We’ll give you some answers right after we follow James Earl Jones into those fascinating looking crops.
