Hackers (1995)

"HACK THE PLANET!"As chosen by the This Ends at Prom Patreon supporters, this week The Wives Colangelo are hacking the planet and talking about the technofuture of HACKERS. There's no heterosexual (or cisgender) explanation for like, 90% of this movie. Let's wear our hair in four braids minimum, come up with killer hacker nicknames, and get into it. --------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTNo Hate in Washington State: https://nohateinwastate.org/--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"She's imperfect, but she tries."Sometimes the teen girl experience is juggling the most gut-wrenching tragedy imaginable while also trying to make sense of who you are and preparing for the biggest role of your high school theatre career. DON'T SAY GOOD LUCK is one of the best coming-of-age films in recent memory, and the fact that it isn't one of the most talked-about films of the year is a travesty. The Wives Colangelo are getting their sugar, butter, and flour ready for a tearjerker of an episode. --------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTNo Hate in Washington State: https://nohateinwastate.org/--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"My whole life is a dark room, one big dark room."Teenage goth girls obsessed with the afterlife rarely get to star in a movie, and despite the presence of the titular ghost with the most, BEETLEJUICE is the story of Lydia Deetz and her incredible bangs. Being uprooted isn't fun for anyone, but moving into a house haunted by the recently deceased certainly complicates things. Let's say farewell to the most wonderful time of the year with The Wives Colangelo and the sounds of Harry Belafonte.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe Cornell Daily Sun Alumni Association: https://www.cornellsun.com/page/donate--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"Sister."45 years ago, a teenage girl named Zoë Lund was cast in the titular role of Abel Ferrara's MS .45. Considered one of the premier films in the rape-revenge subgenre, MS .45 is a righteous rallying cry for anyone who has ever been wronged, and a reminder to us all that we don't have to sit back and let people take advantage of us. When they silence our voices... find other ways to be heard.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------Readings from the booklet in the Arrow Release: https://www.arrowvideo.com/p/ms-45-limited-edition-4k-uhd/17194658/--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe Cornell Daily Sun Alumni Association: https://www.cornellsun.com/page/donate--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"Eating makes me feel best when I feel bad, and boy do I feel bad."Over 40 years ago, Rita Mae Brown and Amy Holden Jones crafted a slasher classic that completely deconstructed the male gaze and gendered relationship with the horror genre with a low-budget B-movie that took years for people to fully understand. Grab your drill and order pizza because it's time for THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE. --------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe Cornell Daily Sun Alumni Association: https://www.cornellsun.com/page/donate--------Article Referenced‘Slumber Party Massacre’: Deconstructing the Male Gazehttps://btchflcks.com/2013/10/slumber-party-massacre-deconstructing-the-male-gaze.html#content--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"Don't you want to be an urban legend, Nat? All your friends are now."It's the most wonderful time of the year! The Wives Colangelo are kicking off the season of scares with a teen horror classic that critics hated at the time, but real ones have recognized as one of the best of the post-SCREAM slasher boom: URBAN LEGEND.

"In the end, my girlfriend became my arch-enemy, my arch-enemy became my best friend, and my best friend became my girlfriend. But, hey, it's high school."Have you ever noticed the parallels between the archetypal superhero origin stories and the average coming-of-age teen movie tropes? This week, The Wives Colangelo are going up, up, and away to SKY HIGH, and examining the way Disney's non-Marvel superhero movie is the perfect exploration of the cruel hierarchy of high school that somehow doubles as an allegory for coming out.

"Wherever you are in the world, I swear I'll find you again."Body swap movies are so much more than just clones of FREAKY FRIDAY, and the 2016 anime film YOUR NAME is arguably the best body swap movie in existence. This week, The Wives Colangelo explore what it means for two teenagers to body swap across time, space, and gender. If you've never seen YOUR NAME, you owe it to yourself to watch this classic-in-the-making on its 10-year anniversary. --------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe JED Foundation: https://www.jedfoundation.org--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"We spend more time defending our relationship than actually having one."As chosen by the Patreon Prom Party, this month The Wives Colangelo are stepping up, turning out, and tackling SAVE THE LAST DANCE. A movie remembered more for its memes than its messaging, it's time to have an uncomfortable conversation about a movie everyone seems to remember loving but might not feel the same way upon a rewatch 25 years later.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe JED Foundation: https://www.jedfoundation.org--------Article Mentioned“SAVE THE LAST DANCE” IS LOWKEY WEIRD TO WATCH 25 YEARS LATER: https://www.blackasf.com/post/save-the-last-dance-is-lowkey-weird-to-watch-25-years-later--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/
