Growing up in the 80’s was super weird. Together we will rewatch movies that made us laugh, made us cry, and made us make poor choices with boys, friends, and life in general.
gHoUls. GhOsTs. dRY bOnES. Happy Halloween and welcome to our final sPoOky episode of season 4! This week we are putting on our under-eye patches, sliding into our Spanx, and settling in to watch 1992's Death Becomes Her. And spoiler alert, guys. We loved it. A lot. Like, so much. I mean, you have to love a movie that boldly calls out America's obsession with looking and staying young a full 30 years before people are literally get...
Is it funny? Sure. Is it scary? Also, sure. But you wanna know what it is most of all? Kinda gross. The werewolf transformation is not something you want to get involved in. Your clothes are ruined. Your skin is busted. Your nails? Forget about it. And all the Hair, Skin and Nails in the world isn't going to fix your problem. Guys, we are watching 1981's An American Werewolf in London.

ANNNNDDD this movie is somehow a homage to Peter Pan, and we only just realized it? Where do I send my money?
Great news, friends - on this week's episode of Confidently Controversial we're watching 1987's The Lost Boys. It's got Keifer Sutherland, it's got Bill S. Preston, Esquire, i...
Well, would you look at that... season 4 of Confidently Controversial is back on the very same day that sweet baby angel Taylor Swift releases her new album. Many would say it is merely a coincidence, but true Swifties know that nothing in Tay's world happens by chance, and everything means something. What does this mean? Well, if you don't know then I certainly cannot help you, but you should probably listen to the whole episode f...
A buh buh buh buh buh buh - it's the last episode of season three, friends! Hop on board as we lovingly watch Kurt Russell build an incredible closet while wearing an equally incredible tank top in one of the best, possibly most confidently controversial movies of all time - it's 1987's Overboard.

We love Lloyd Dobler and we will not be listening to any arguments to the contrary, so please step away from the microphone. On this week's episode of Confidently Controversial we're watching 1989's Cameron Crowe classic, Say Anything and it's lovely. Sure, the dad's a real creep, but what can you do? No more questions.

Oklahoma, Oklahoma, Oklahoma. Okay guys, we think this one holds up, but keep in mind we are small-minded children who love a good bout of physical comedy even when slightly questionable and possibly offensive. This week we are watching the 1988 comedy, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. Steve Martin, Michael Caine, good times.

Everybody has a Batman and for us, Keaton is our man! Superhero movies were back in a big way when Tim Burton's caped crusader (Superman, Batman - they both have capes, leave me alone) and kinda weird, not properly therapized bat of a man came on the scene in 1989. Join us as we gather round to watch Jack Nicholson dance to Prince songs! It's the best.

Guys, I don't even know what to say. This movie is messed up in so many ways and I haven't even begun to comprehend it. I do know that I am going to have to be way nicer to Emily now. I mean she watched this as a kid. She was just a baby when she was faced with her mortality packaged in a sarcophagus and dropped off in her yard via helicopter. She was so small and likely freaked out as she watched this faux Grammy shoot milk from h...
I mean, I could make some sort of spicy comment about how the color of money may be green, but the color of our review for this movie is stinky brown, but we try to stay highbrow over here and I would never. Plus, you gotta keep it classy for Paul Newman as he was a kind-hearted soul who gave us some delicious dressings and sauces. Either way, we didn't really care for it and we felt like we were supposed to? I don't know. Please t...
Sometimes you just have to be delighted. You have to stop thinking you are cooler than everyone else and leave the negativity at the door and just enjoy a gosh darn movie. Yeah, we are talking to you, Ebert. You're not better than us... Guys, we are watching the 1987 solid gold film, Summer School, starring the truly talented and extremely handsome, Mr. Mark Harmon. You'll love it - we promise!

He's a teen. But, he is also a wolf. Guys, he's a teen wolf. And before you young folk get all excited, please know that this movie has no relationship to that sassy teen wolf nonsense that took place on MTV a few years ago. Nope, this is the real deal. The Mike Fox wolf. The OG, basketball playing, van surfing, bestie to Stiles wolf that won our hearts way back in 1985. If you can't handle it - look away.

Whoopi deserved so much more with this film, but here we are, huh? It's 1986's cyber thriller/comedy Jumpin' Jack Flash. Tune in as we decode the madness, dive into the fabulous fashion, and ask the real question: did anyone actually understand that plot—or were we all just vibing with Whoopi?

This week on Confidently Controversial, we take off our shoes, grab our trowels and head to the ocean to watch 1991's Sleeping With the Enemy, a film that gave many of us our first brush with domestic violence, obsessive compulsive disorder, and Van Morrison. Tune in as we unpack the ups and downs of this movie, while also trying to determine if that neighbor guy was hot or not.

This week on Confidently Controversial, we dive into 1982's Swamp Thing. Tune in as we unpack government conspiracies, questionable science, and what happens when goosparks start flying. It's not great, but somehow it isn't terrible either.

Full disclosure, this ep happens over the course of two days because we get tired and silly real easily and it was late and we just couldn't handle it. That being said, join us as we watch a Disney staple from our youth that explores the treachery of being small in a great big world, the idea that our parents are just people, too, and the joyful concept that everyone adds value in their own way. Even you. Yes, you. It's 1989's Hone...
The Running Man is a popular hip-hop move, widely believed to have originated in the late 1980s in Oakland, California. It was popularized by award-winning rapper, dancer, entrepreneur, and occasional actor MC Hammer. Jk...I truly wish I could tell you that we are discussing one of the true highlights of the 1980’s - the amazing dance called the running man, howmever, our moves and grooves podcast has yet to make it to air, so I g...
Wayne's World, Wayne's World [INSERT WOO WOO WOO SOUNDS HERE] - Party on, guys, we're watching 1992's Saturday Night Live sketch spin-off Wayne's World! Starring Mike Myers and Dana Carvey, this movie remains iconically schwingy and you can utter your eternal thanks to it for giving Rob Lowe his first comedy role. Oh and Bohemian Rhapsody is there. Five stars.
