1994 Entertainment Weekly Summer Movie Preview Part 1
POP QUIZ HOT SHOT!!!! There's a movie podcast celebrating the 1994 EW Summer Movie Preview and the iconic summers films (TRUE LIES!! THE LION KING!!!! THE MASK!! ) of that iconic film year (FORREST GUMP vs. PULP FICTION Oscar showdown!) What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO? I'm quoting SPEED, a little movie about a bomb on a bus released on June 10th, 1994 (28 years ago today!!!) that raced to the top of the box office and the wildcat behind the wheel, Sandra Bullock, sped into our hearts. Join Brian and podcast royalty Kate Levkoff (Nursing and Cursing) for this very special episode, taking us back to an innocent time not long ago when the sexy coverboy of this issue was a middle aged Billy Crystal sticking his face through a lasso to promote CITY SLICKERS 2. Buckle up for Part 1 where we deep dive into SPEED (Keanu's scandalous buzz cut)THE FLINTSTONES (Justice for John Goodman, the Daniel Day Lewis of Bedrock) BEVERLY HILLS COP 3 (Eddie's one word review: Garbage) MAVERICK (the one with Mel, not Tom, where Jodie Foster proves her superior acting skills by acting horny for co-star Gibson.) We talk the childhood trauma of seeing LION KING in theaters and pick which of Elton John's legendary songs is secretly a pride anthem! HAKUNA MATATA KIDS! No worries, just listen!
