Confidently Controversial

Growing up in the 80s was super weird. Join us as we rewatch the movies that shaped our youth and likely damaged our tiny brains and contributed to subpar levels of self esteem. It'll be fun - we promise

  1. Anna to the Infinite Power

    HÁ 5 DIAS

    Anna to the Infinite Power

    Well guys, we are going to tell you what you already knew when you read the title of this week's episode - this is an Emily pick and it's real weird. Anna to the Infinite Power is not a heartwarming story about math (which I know is what you were hoping for), but a grumpy tale about clones and maybe an argument for nurture over nature? Yes, I said clones. Bitchy ones. Come along and watch with us, won't you? Anyway, this is a movie and we watched it, so you should listen to us talk about it. If you like it, you can check out our other stuff on confidentlycontroversial.com!

    Halloween

    Well, here we are, back for another week of pissing off the horror movie fans with our acerbic wit and highly delightful takes on the entire horror movie genre. That's a joke. Dudes hate us and honestly, we are okay with it. That's why this week, we've waded all the way into the pool of bloody goo and are watching 1978's Halloween. Yes, the OG. Oh and we did it at night... take that, fellas. What did we think? Hmmmm, aside from all the breathy screaming and bad friendships, I guess it was fine.

  3. The Monster Squad

    The Monster Squad

    Let's pretend I need to write a whole paragraph about this movie to help you remember the exceptional plot and delightful storyline, however, we all know that the only thing I need to write about 1987's The Monster Squad is "wolfman's got nards.". Guys, it's all you remember for a reason. Well, unless you are Emily. She remembers how hot she thought (thinks?) Dracula was (is?). Anyway, come listen to us talk about it.

  4. The Witches

    The Witches

    And that's why you always leave a note... Listen Roald Dahl, we appreciate your valiant attempts to keep kids safe by teaching them a lesson, but did you have to do it with so much terror, scalp itch and villainization of chubby kids? I'll wait... Guys, this week, we watched 1990's The Witches and while Angelica Huston is an icon who should be worshipped until end times, this film was just too manic for our middle-aged brains. We've said it before and we will say it again, our childhood was wild. Happy Spooky Season, y'all.

  5. Something Wicked This Way Comes

    4 DE OUT.

    Something Wicked This Way Comes

    Spooky season is upon us and this year, guys - we. are. ready. I mean, sorta. Week one features another wildly weird pick straight from the tortured youth of Emily's living room - a 1983 kids movie (?) that might be about sin? Or maybe friendship? Or probably something else entirely that we completely missed because honestly this movie was a lot. And by a lot, I mean I don't really remember what happened aside from some sort of creepy reverse Benjamin Buttoning style merry go round. Join us for dry bones, wet meat and 1983's Something Wicked This Way Comes. Visit our website - confidentlycontroversial.com

  6. The Money Pit

    27 DE SET.

    The Money Pit

    Tom Hanks laughing manically into the giant hole in the floor where his bathtub once stood is hands down one of the top scenes in any movie, any where, of all time. I will fight you if you think otherwise. Get excited, because this week, we are watching the 1986 film about poor decision making, things that are too good to be true, and of course, adultery. It's The Money Pit!! Tom Hanks and Shelly Long, folks - you will love it.

  7. The Outsiders

    19 DE SET.

    The Outsiders

    Don’t just love it when mandatory high school reading becomes a movie? I mean, pros and cons, right? Either way, Emily gave us an assignment this week and gosh darn it did we earn a solid B+ watching and discussing S.E. (The S stands for seriously, I’m a lady) Hinton’s The Outsiders. It became a film in 1983 and features pretty much all of your favorite pony boys from the 80s - Swayze, Cruise, Lowe, Macchio, Thomas-Howell. Jump in a prepare to be… mmmmm… whelmed.

  8. Troop Beverly Hills

    13 DE SET.

    Troop Beverly Hills

    Beverly Hills, What a thrill! Guys, we are going through a Shelly Long phase and it starts with 1989's feminist redemption story - Troop Beverly Hills. Hated by critics, but universally loved by us two schmos, this film is a delight and we simply aren't interested in varying opinions. Like all good 80's movies, it does have its issues, but none of them are Phyllis Nefler's commitment to good fashion.
