Send us a textRemember the Arnold Schwarzenegger film "The Running Man" from 1987? Remember how cool it was? We sure do. A reality TV series where the contestants have to run through an earthquake-ravaged Los Angeles while being stalked by actual killers with names like "Buzz Saw", "Sub Zero" & "Fireball" who were actually trying to kill you, it's no wonder this was a childhood favorite. Can this Sci-Fi, big-budgeted Arnold action from the '80s still be good? We're hoping for big ratings from the Ultra-Violent reality game show.Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

Couch Potato Theater: Cobra (1986) - 1980's Cannon Films Retrospective Watch: Fandom Podcast Network YouTube Channel Link:  https://www.youtube.com/@FandomPodcastNetwork   Listen: Couch Potato Theater Audio Podcast Link: https://fpnet.podbean.com/category/couch-potato-theater Welcome to Couch Potato Theater, where we celebrate our favorite movies on the Fandom Podcast Network! This year we're celebrating 1980's Cannon action films with a retrospective on how important these movies were to our fandom then, and the nostalgic grasp they still have on us today. On this episode we discuss Sylvester Stallone as Lt. Marion "Cobra" Cobretti in the Cult Classic movie, Cobra (1986).  Cobra is a 1986 American action film directed by George P. Cosmatos and written by Sylvester Stallone, who stars in the titular role. The film, loosely based on the 1974 novel A Running Duck by Paula Gosling (later published as Fair Game and filmed under that title in 1995), co-stars Reni Santoni, Brigitte Nielsen and Andrew Robinson. The script was largely inspired by Stallone's original script for Beverly Hills Cop (1984). Cobra was released to generally negative reviews with criticism on its excessive violence and overuse of genre tropes, but it was a box office success and also has since been considered as a cult classic. Plot Synopsis: Criticized for his brutal and unconventional ways, hard-as-nails Lieutenant Cobra is the tip of the spear of LAPD's elite Zombie Squad. But crime runs rampant in the city. As a string of seemingly unconnected assaults on civilians drags the hardened officer into a violent war with the psychopaths of The New World, an underground cult aiming to weed out the weak, Cobra must escort key witness Ingrid to a safe house. However, the Night Slasher and the movement's delusional killers will stop at nothing to track her down. Now, there is no turning back--only one man stands in the way of the disease. Cobra is the cure! We will also discuss the films 1980's Cannon Films Famous Producers, Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus. We also mention the documentaries about them, Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films (2014), and The Go-Go Boys: The Inside Story of Cannon Films (2014).

Send us a textDo you remember Stephen King's Maximum Overdrive from the 80s? We remember liking this movie a lot.

In this episode, the hosts discuss the complexities of the film 'Tenet' directed by Christopher Nolan, exploring its themes, character performances, and visual storytelling. They delve into the technical difficulties faced during the recording, the selection of films for their Patreon segment, and Chris's personal art projects. The conversation highlights the philosophical questions raised by the film, the tension throughout its runtime, and the overall cinematic experience. In this conversation, the hosts delve into the complexities of modern filmmaking, particularly focusing on Christopher Nolan's 'Tenet' and its dense narrative structure. They discuss the challenges of understanding such films and the potential benefits of a multi-part series. The discussion then shifts to the cult classic 'Hard Ticket to Hawaii,' exploring its campy charm and the appeal of so-bad-it's-good cinema. The hosts reflect on the enjoyment derived from these films, despite their flaws, and conclude with a review of 'F1: The Movie,' highlighting its mediocrity and entertainment value.

This week on Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas unearth The Mummy (1999) and debate whether this fan-favorite adventure deserves a spot in the official Challenge Accepted Top 100 list. Originally challenged by Australian podcast pal Aaron Brasher from Fandom Portals, the duo dives into everything from the film's wild plot and iconic action to its CGI, practical effects, and Brendan Fraser's action star moment. They unpack what holds up, what doesn't, and why this movie might be the perfect time capsule of late '90s popcorn cinema. Timestamps & Topics: 00:00 Introduction & who challenged this movie 02:00 First impressions: childhood memories and DVD nostalgia 04:00 Two-minute plot rundown (with chaotic energy) 06:00 Brendan Fraser: action hero or accidental legend? 09:00 Can this franchise come back—and should Fraser lead it? 11:00 Comparing Rick O'Connell to Indiana Jones 13:00 Evelyn's character: damsel, badass, or both? 18:00 Imhotep's motivations and why he's low-key sympathetic 22:00 Side characters, comic relief, and iconic moments 24:00 Filming in Morocco and creating believable heat 25:30 The good, the bad, and the beetles of CGI 30:00 Why Brendan Fraser's fight choreography still holds up 33:00 That Egyptian score and the power of a strong soundtrack 35:00 Mid-budget movie magic: why we need more like this 38:00 Behind-the-scenes fun facts: near-death moments and more 44:00 Historical accuracy vs cinematic fun 46:00 Cast reunion and the movie's lasting cult status 47:30 Top 100 decision time—does it make the cut? Key Takeaways: Brendan Fraser choreographed much of his own action—legend. The Mummy walks the line between camp and craft, with charm to spare. This is a film that thrives on practical effects, strong chemistry, and a sense of fun. While some moments feel dated, the core still entertains in 2025. It's a solid contender for the Challenge Accepted Top 100, but is that enough? Quotes Worth Repeating: “Rick O'Connell is 90% action hero, 10% lucky idiot—and that's why we love him.” “Imhotep didn't ask to be cursed. They turned him into the villain.” “This movie feels hotter than Dune—and everyone's actually sweating.” “It's not just nostalgia, this thing's still fun start to finish.” Call to Action: Think The Mummy deserves a Top 100 spot?

"You could sit at home, and do like absolutely nothing, and your name goes through like 17 computers a day. 1984? Yeah right, man. That's a typo. Orwell is here now. He's livin' large. We have no names, man. No names. We are nameless!" HACKERS hit theaters in 1995—and mostly flatlined. But before it became a cult phenomenon, it was a risky production that blended cutting-edge visual effects, rave culture aesthetics, and a sincere belief that the digital frontier was worth fighting for. In this episode, we dive into the making of the film, the marketing missteps that doomed its initial release, and the slow rise of HACKERS as a touchstone for cyberpunk cinema and internet culture. We'll also share our own thoughts on its uncanny prescience, its unforgettable style, and why it still resonates with audiences today. Suit up, grab your laptop, and join us as we trace how Hackers went from box-office flop to a beloved artifact of the wired age. Want to support the show?

Send us a textDo you remember Pump Up The Volume from 1990? Who didn't want to start a shortwave radio show just like Christian Slater's character in the movie? Maybe ours wouldn't have been as deep or thought provoking, but it would have been fun. Join us as we go back to the beginning of the 90s & look at the fashion, listen to the music and witness the teen angst that was the 90s teenager life. And then probably laugh. Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

Scott and Josh discuss what they've been playing, including Doom 3, Doom 64, Atomfall's DLC, and Labyrinth of the Demon King. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
