Les mer Rated Gen X

This rad podcast is a fresh look at the iconic films of the 80s through the giddy and angsty Gen X PoV. Every other week we'll pick one movie from the eighties and relive its awesomeness! Or maybe cope with some cringe? There'll be some James Bond, some John Hughes, and of course, Spielberg. We'll cover the quintessential and we'll welcome listener requests! Come for the memories, stay for the authenticity. This is your brain on nostalgia. Any questions?

episode Heathers cover

Heathers

Heathers premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 1989 and went on to become a Gen X cult classic, a Broadway musical, and a Paramount + series. Winona Ryder and Christian Slater star as the toxic duo who go full vigilante to battle the noxious side of high school life. Shannen Doherty*, Kim Walker, and Lisanne Falk star as the eponymous Heathers, the original Mean Girls. This dark comedy has no filter! But does it go too far? The Rated Gen X trio asks, “what’s your damage?” You can watch Heathers on Amazon Prime [https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/amzn1.dv.gti.beb4986e-b14f-829b-6c2f-1001fd87f9f7?autoplay=0&ref_=atv_cf_strg_wb], Hulu [https://www.hulu.com/movie/heathers-358a31d7-a435-403a-8f38-1d02caed3608?entity_id=358a31d7-a435-403a-8f38-1d02caed3608], Starz [https://www.starz.com/us/en/movies/heathers-48592], and Tubi [https://tubitv.com/movies/475898/heathers?start=true&tracking=google-feed&utm_source=google-feed] Follow us on Instagram @ratedgenxpod [https://www.instagram.com/ratedgenxpod/] Check out our Gen X curated Heathers Mixtape on Spotify here [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3NNxvSNKnTtx8DUPZ4yfKD?si=8a67fd406ed54676] *Please note that this episode was recorded on May 18, 2024, prior to Shannen’s passing on July 13, 2024.

episode The Shining cover

The Shining

Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, based on Stephen King’s 1977 novel is, by many, considered a psychological horror masterpiece. This 1980 film, starring Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duvall*, is full of scenes that live on in pop culture infamy. Take a drive with us through the Rockies to the Overlook hotel as an ascent into the mountains becomes a descent into madness. We’ll also have some fun remembering the movie scenes that may have slightly scarred us for life. Because “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” You can watch The Shining on Amazon Prime [https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/amzn1.dv.gti.98b71bb8-71e5-93c1-7bba-1e7db4d988e0?autoplay=0&ref_=atv_cf_strg_wb], Fandango [https://www.vudu.com/content/browse/details/The-Shining/9235], AMC + [https://www.amcplus.com/movies/the-shining-1980--1033911], and YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiSLrJP5XbY] Follow us on Instagram @ratedgenxpod [https://www.instagram.com/ratedgenxpod/] Check out our Gen X curated The Shining Mixtape on Spotify here [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6W9v5s337DgSX5DxleYcqZ?si=50326708641f4b26] *Please note that this episode was recorded on May 18, 2024, prior to Shelley’s passing on July 11, 2024.

episode Raiders of the Lost Ark cover

Raiders of the Lost Ark

This week Curtis, Erin, and Gabe (AKA the Other Raiders Kids) discuss Raiders of the Lost Ark. Was it a movie for boys? Which is more fun, playing with action figures or cosplay? What’s scarier than snakes? And did Indy rob the cradle? (His relationship with Marion is a little ick, right?) Plus, when it comes to rating the film, how many whip cracks will it get? And, Gabe will really tell you what he thinks of the sequels.

episode Fast Times at Ridgemont High cover

Fast Times at Ridgemont High

All right, Hamilton! This week, Curtis, Erin, and Gabe (AKA the “Learn It. Know It. Live It.” Troika) head to SoCal in search of some tasty waves, linguine with white clam sauce, and romance. Is Amy Heckerling's directorial debut—featuring an ensemble cast of future stars including Oscar-winners Sean Penn, Forest Whitaker, and Nicolas Cage (in a cameo as Nicolas Coppola), as well as knockout performances by Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, and Judge Reinhold—the definitive 80s high school film? We'll discuss, we'll share our thoughts on Mike Damone's 5-point plan, and the boys will confess their version of "side one of Led Zeppelin IV." That's a 100% guarantee. The most paused VHS moment ever!

episode BRATS (Bonus Episode!) cover

BRATS (Bonus Episode!)

In this bonus episode, Curtis, Erin, and Gabe (AKA the Bizarre Pod-rangle) rush into the virtual studio to discuss Andrew McCarthy’s documentary BRATS. Is it a self-indulgent whine fest? Or is there deeper meaning to McCarthy’s quest to connect with old friends, bury some hatchets, and exorcize some demons. We’ll discuss our favorite Brat Packers, dish on our fave BP film(s), and Curtis might even tell a story about an actor who didn’t return McCarthy’s calls. As a very, very special double bonus, we’ll create make a mix tape, live on the air! That’s when we ask ourselves, why do so many song titles from the 80s end in question marks?

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
