Episode 595: Our 1988 Favorites




The Deucecast Movie Show show

Summary: It's always an honor and a pleasure to welcome back one of our absolute favorites and a spot of true class on our little show... and since Jenn Novotny was not available, we called upon our beloved Jennifer Kaufman as this week's #FanboySummer winner loser participant! (we kid, we kid... we love Kaufman) First up, lots of birthday movies from the previous 5, 10, 20 and so on years -- including the original The Meg's 5th birthday, 2 Guns 10th birthday, The Fugitive's 30th birthday, and more. Then, a round of Reel or Unreal, as the crew tries to guess the names of really bad films few people have heard of. Finally, a great look at the year in film 1988.  Kaufman gives her reasons for picking this topic, and everyone gives their favorite films from that year including vintage Eddie Murphy... all the actors who were up for the legendary role Bob Hoskins got... the sad  tale of "Yep Yep Yep"... a shout out to Garrison's fave film... Seagal, Ernest, and Chevy all get love from Mikey... and Dr Earl gets pretentious, of course.   Movies discussed and where to find them:   Above the Law (for rental) All Hat (Amazon Prime; MGM+; TubiTV; Paramount+) Beetlejuice (AMC+; for rental) Big (Disney+; MGM+) The Care Bears Nutcracker Suite (for rental) Coming to America (Netflix) Dangerous Liasons (for rental) Die Hard (Hulu) Dominick and Eugene (unavailable) Ernest Saves Christmas (Disney+) Fading of the Cries (unavailable) A Fish Called Wanda (Showtime) Funny Farm (for rental) The Great Outdoors (for rental) How to Go Out on a Date in Queens (Plex) The Land Before Time (for rental) License to Drive (Starz) Midnight Run (for rental) Oliver and Company (Disney+) Rain Man (Showtime; Paramount+) The Rescue (Hoopla; for rental) Shoot to Kill (unavailable) A Smile Like Yours (for rental) Teenage Space Vampires (TubiTV; Plex) Who Framed Roger Rabbit (Disney+) Working Girl (Amazon Prime; MGM+)
