We will select a theme for the month and each of us will pick one movie that fits that theme. All movies must be at least 20 years old or older. We'll then watch all three movies and discuss. The podcast will be recorded via a Zoom meeting live with no cuts or or edits made. You'll hear all our raw thoughts and brain farts as we talk. For June 2022, the theme for our first show back will be "Summertime." We listed out the top-grossing movie of the summer from each year prior to 2002. From this list, Scotty selected "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial" from 1982, Heather picked "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" from 1988, and Trevor chose "Top Gun" from 1986. Join us as we discuss these three movies to see if they still hold up after all these years!
