Racing with the Moon

Boy in Blue

The boys are back! We've returned from our year long hiatus, which you won't hear mentioned at all because this episode was recorded over a year ago! We review the 1986 film "Boy in Blue". We discuss how dogs improve every sports movie, drug-addled boat makers, and we play a new game with a surprise ending! Boy in Blue can't be streamed anywhere in the US, so good luck finding this movie!

Birdy

We review the 1984 film "Birdy". We discuss rampant homoeroticism, whether Matthew Modine actually knows how to act like a bird, and whether the cliffhanger ending is real or not! "Birdy" can be streamed on Amazon Prime.

The Cotton Club

We review the 1984 film "The Cotton Club". We discuss Nicolas Cage murdering children, the inclusion of every racial slur known to man, and for some reason "Valley Girl" still comes up in the conversation. Go figure! "The Cotton Club" can be streamed for free on The Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Vudu, or Plex.

Racing with the Moon

We review the 1984 film "Racing with the Moon", featuring special guest Maddy from the podcast Fatal Flaw! We discuss the definition of a "clean" abortion, whether Sean Penn can get away with stalking, and why movies in the 80s are still talking about WWII. "Racing with the Moon" can be streamed with a Showtime subscription or rented or purchased from Amazon Prime Video.

Rumble Fish

Join us as we review the 1983 film "Rumble Fish". We berate Adam for never having seen The Godfather, discuss why this movie is so wet, and the fact that for once Cage plays one of the best characters in the movie! Rumble Fish is available for purchase or rental on Amazon Video.
