WAIT!! Dean Cain, EriKa Eleaniak AND Eric Roberts!?!? I know what I'm watching this weekend.
Thanks for listening!

Yes, I was honestly surprised Isaiah had only recently watched Die Hard! It’s shocking how many r rated films I’d seen growing up in the 1980s!

Paul Blart fits, but that was a reference to a tv movie starring Dean Cain 😄

Is Die Hard in Mall, Paul Blart: Mall Cop? Another good episode. Isaiah is the 2nd 20something I've heard of who just discovered Die Hard in the last year. We need to talk about the poor job of parenting being done to not introduce these films at a more inappropriate age. :)
🎄🔫 Die Hard - Have a Holly Gennaro Christmas

In this episode, we discuss McClane, Gruber, and the Christmas movie debate that will never die. Plus, we suggest what limo driver Argyle SHOULD have been doing besides listening to “Skeletons” by Stevie Wonder on repeat!

I have a soft spot for the '90s version. Can't decide if this looks lame or so lame it's going to be great.
Well, they’ve certainly captured the look of the characters!

Jason Momoa as Blanka actually looks good in this photo!

Thanks for watching. I did like how the two movies overlapped. I think the late '60s, early '70s is a very interesting time in American history. There are so many films about Vietnam that have great cinematography that there's little room for mediocre production value.
Nice video especially because there is overlap in the timeline of the events.

I enjoyed Dead Presidents (especially Chris Tucker’s role) even though I felt the production value wasn’t good for the Vietnam scenes.

Paranoia is such an understandably prominent theme in many war films.

Right before the holidays, we've hit the end of 1995 for Hollywood Pictures. Nixon and Dead President's. Two films that share more than just the year they were released. youtu.be/FCDanqvIJRo?...

I have another Home Alone-inspired beer on night 5 of the Pour Decisions Christmas Beer Advent Calendar. Oh-Kay India Pail Ale by Short's Brewing Company does NOT disappoint. Watch on YouTube, TikTok, or the Kevin Hunsperger Facebook page.

This looks Ike something out of the Cannon Films "coming soon-ish" files.
The greatest movie never made.

Don't think I've seen this since it came out. May need to give it another view.
This just reminded me that I need to add this to the films we will cover next year! This is such a fun film and my 2nd favorite Michael Crichton novel! 💎🍸🦍

Watching "Nixon" for next week's Pharaoh's Vault. After visiting the Nixon Library earlier this year and learning there's a lot more to him beyond Watergate, the movie hits differently.

In Vegas for a couple days. First stop Back to the 80s Cafe. Good food. Just need to up their Touchstone memorabilia.

Just learned Eric Roberts has the most credited appearances in film and tv with 700 credits.* after we get through Touchstone Pictures, maybe we should change to Out of Eric Roberts. (Or something less cringe) *American actors

This week's Pharaoh's Vault features three Hollywood Pictures that are all about control. It's like Janet Jackson said, "Control, never gonna stop." Navy captains, futuristic cops and rookie teachers show us how keeping control can be difficult. youtu.be/gLcgY4rI8nY?...

Agree. They both could have been No Brainers. A really out there Creative Combo would be something like Swimming with Sharks or Entourage. Though, that wouldn't really be family friendly.
Both good choices, but I felt they were switched. I would have picked School of Rock as the No Brainer. 😄

Synergy, baby! Guessing Song of the South was still available then. Also, that Michael J Fox movie looks perfect for a double feature *cough*hint*cough*
Just thinking about how a decade into the Touchstone Pictures filmography there had been four films featuring characters singing “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah” from SONG OF THE SOUTH (1946).
