Episode 77 - Uncle Buck (1989)

This week on Rewind It Back, we step into the ring with the gloriously chaotic video game adaptation Street Fighter (1994), starring Jean-Claude Van Damme as Colonel Guile and the legendary Raul Julia in his unforgettable final performance as M. Bison.We break down how this arcade classic turned into a live-action fever dream packed with explosions, one-liners, questionable accents, and a plot that somehow involves war zones, TV reporters, and a boat full of cosplaying fighters. From the bizarre casting choices to the behind-the-scenes drama, we talk about why this movie is both a mess and weirdly lovable.We also spotlight Raul Julia’s performance, which somehow rises above the madness and delivers one of the most iconic villain lines of the ’90s. Whether you grew up button-mashing on Street Fighter II or just love so-bad-it’s-good action movies, this episode is packed with nostalgia, laughs, and plenty of “What were they thinking?” moments.

Get ready to rewind one of the most iconic comedies of all time, Dumb and Dumber! In this episode, we dive into the wild, absurd genius of Jim Carrey and how this movie helped cement his legendary comedy career. We also break down why Jeff Daniels was the ultimate wild card casting choice—and how he absolutely nailed it. Plus, we put our movie knowledge to the test with a fun round of trivia you won’t want to miss. Buckle up… it’s gonna get dumb.

This week we are talking about the movie, Fight Club. Started as a controversial movie about masculinity, consumerism, and rebellion, but over time it’s become one of the defining cult films of the late 90s. Whether you see Tyler Durden as a hero, a villain, or just a symptom of the Narrator’s breakdown, it’s the kind of movie that gives you more to think about every time you watch it.

This week on Rewind It Back, we head deep into the jungle with the 1987 action-sci-fi classic Predator. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as Dutch, the film follows an elite military rescue team on a mission that quickly turns into a fight for survival against an unseen extraterrestrial hunter. We break down the iconic action, unforgettable one-liners, behind-the-scenes stories, and why Predator remains one of the most influential action movies of the 80s.

The show is back after a long hiatus! RIP Robert Duvall

We discuss this overlooked jewel of a comedy by John Hughes. John Candy is brilliant as Uncle Buck, a guy who has to look after his brothers kids while they go away on a family emergency. Join us as we talk about this classic, and certainly a triumph that would not have happened with John Candy. Hollywood lost a great actor far too soon. Artwork by Maura Farrell
