90 Under 90

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED NOVEMBER 2023 Long before Taylor Swift broke records with the box office take for her concert film, a comedy supergiant held the title of highest gross for 21 years. We discuss the 1987 concert film "Eddie Murphy: Raw" and how connected we are to the movie, problematic though it may be.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED OCTOBER 2023 Dan's choice from Jer's list this month is "Scream" from 1996 directed by the legend Wes Craven.  The guys deviate from the standard formula a little bit by spending a large portion of the episode on the "Scream" franchise as a whole.  Jer also shares his (possibly overhyped?) pitch for "Scream 7."

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 2023 An excellent movie with far less relevance than it originally had, this month we're discussing "The Truman Show" directed by Peter Weir and starring Jim Carrey in his first significant dramatic shift.

At first the people kept asking...then they started DEMANDING! More! More content on the 2013 Jason Reitman coming-of-age drama "Labor Day!" Never one to disappoint, Dan and Katie Eden open their home to a special guest to discuss their involvement in the movie.Frankly, this needed to happen.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED AUGUST 2023 For the first time on 90 OVER 90, we have a guest host in the form of our dear old friend Cass Quinn to talk about the movie "SLC Punk!" as well as punk music and what it means to be punk.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 7/30/23 Jer and Dan discuss a pivotal movie from their childhood: "The Blues Brothers" from 1980, directed by John Landis.  But their love and knowledge of Jake and Elwood goes far beyond this one movie, having seeped their way into even their childhood play.  It's a long one, but it's jam packed full of love and nostalgia.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 6/30/23 Just in time for an Indiana Jones movie that's SURE to please EVERYONE, we discuss one of Dan's favorite movies: an Indiana Jones movie that pleased very few when it was initially released, "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" from 1984, directed by Senior Spielbergo.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 5/14/23 Movies like this are why we started this side series in the first place.  We talk very in depth about the implications and revelations in the 1991 comedy "Drop Dead Fred," the content of which only improves with age.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 4/9/23 This month is Dan's choice, and a great example of a movie whose parts are greater than the sum.  We talk about Damien Chazelle's young man's movie "Whiplash" from 2014 starring JK Simmons and Miles Teller.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 5/24/23 It may not be an Irish movie, but it's still plenty green.  We talk about "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" from 1990, which is still one of the best comic book movies ever adapted.
