The Summer of Sequels sails on, as The Last Row Podcast share their first (and definitely last) experience with Speed 2: Cruise Control. Topics include: Drew’s disrespect of cruise ship propellers, panicked drivers tests, botched wedding proposals, and the guys’ hatred of food crumbs stuck in the keyboard. Finally, Willem Dafoe’s character gets put through the villain scale.
The Summer of Sequelscontinues, as The Last Row Podcast called a Pro down to the Minors to help them break down the 1994 cult classic, Major League II. Ty Hildenbrandt of The Solid Verbal comes in relief to help Drew and Badway make sense of the Cleveland Indians follow-up season to their improbable 1989 playoff run. The guys discuss, among other topics, their nostalgia for the franchise, swapping Omar Epps for Wesley Snipes, Wild Thing’s sellout transformation (and his insane bachelor pad), Randy Quaid as team MVP, and Roger Dorn’s legendary at-bat. Finally, the guys do a fantasy draft of their top 5 fictional baseball players.
Week 2 of The Last Row Podcast’s Summer of Sequels series teaches us that the slickerman doesn’t forgive OR forget in I STILL Know What You Did Last Summer! Drew and Badway discuss keeping your long distance girlfriend happy, how Ben Willis needed to “just get over” the hit and run, the safety of confessing a murder to a priest, and the travesty of how wet Jack Black got his joint.
Drew and Badway get into some serious trouble as The Last Row Podcast looks back on the 1990 dark comedy, Problem Child. Does the movie hold up? Or is it bad nostalgia? Was Junior inherently evil? Was Ben a capable father? Is keeping a 30 year old dried prune the most pathetic thing you’ve ever heard? Answers to all are ahead, plus the guys review all of Junior’s misdeeds and play a game of “Return, Punish, or Reward”.
This week, Drew and Badway try to figure out what’s going on in Cradle Bay, Washington during 1998’s teen thriller Disturbing Behavior. The guys discuss the prospect of the New Kid In School rejecting potential friends, “Punk Rock” Katie Holmes, what Nick Stahl, Edward Furlong and Giovanni Ribisi have in common, and why Badway was a good candidate to join the Blue Ribbons.
Jean-Claude Van Damme joins The Last Row Podcast’s Six Timers Club, as Drew and Badway revisit the underrated 1990 prison flick Death Warrant. The guys mainly discuss JCVD doing JCVD things, how they’d survive prison, and inmate bathroom etiquette. If you sleep on this episode, The Sandman will get ya, so you better check it out!
