Not only are we reviewing Christmas movies this month, but Trading Places makes for the 2nd of 3 screwball comedies you will be able to find on this channel by the end of December. And like those other two, John Landis' romp tells a good story, but isn't very funny. Dan Aykroyd was established as a star, but Eddie Murphy was just starting his legendary movie career while Jamie Lee Curtis was making a successful transition from horror into comedy. Don Ameche, Ralph Bellamy and plenty of others get chances to shine too in this very watchable comedy. They just didn't make us laugh. This episode isn't all fun and games either because we discussed the offensive content and we talked about Landis' involvement in The Twilight Zone tragedy. So bet a buck on the 556th edition of Have You Ever Seen as rich jerks toy with people's lives just because in the Christmassy blockbuster known as Trading Places. Well, Actually: the great R-rated laugh in Coming To America that's discussed at the 15-minute mark is early on in the film before Akeem has fallen in love with Lisa. He's just yelling about how much he loves America before someone curses at him, then he joyfully curses back. Also, Eddie Murphy won the Cecil B DeMille Award at the Golden Globes earlier this year.

Trapped in a day-long Saturday detention in a prison-like school library are Claire, the princess (Molly Ringwald); Andrew, the jock (Emilio Estevez); John, the criminal (Judd Nelson); Brian, the brain (Anthony Michael Hall); and Allison, the basket case (Ally Sheedy). These five strangers begin the day with nothing in common, each bound to his/her place in the high school caste system. Yet the students bond together when faced with the villainous principal (Paul Gleason), and they realize that they have more in common than they may think, including a contempt for adult society. "When you grow up, your heart dies," Allison proclaims in one of the film's many scenes of soul-searching, and, judging from the adults depicted in the film, the teen audience may very well agree. Released in a decade overflowing with derivative teen films, The Breakfast Club has developed an almost cult-like status.CREDITS:TM & © Universal (1985)Cast: Emilio Estevez, Paul Gleason, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, Ally SheedyDirector: John HughesProducers: Gil Friesen, John Hughes, Michelle Manning, Andrew Meyer, Ned TanenScreenwriter: John HughesWHO ARE WE?The MOVIECLIPS channel is the largest collection of licensed movie clips on the web.

First was "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" in 2014, and The Breakfast Club was selected in 2016.  First time you saw the movie? Plot:The opening credits ends with a quote from David Bowie: "...and these children that you spit on, as they try to change their worlds, are immune to your consultations. They're quite aware of what they're going through..." A voice over complaining about Saturday school: Shermer High School, Saturday March 24th, 1984. Cars are dropping off the students. Claire complains she has to do saturday school, Brian promises it's the last time, Andrews father tells him he'll loose his scholarship , Allison is dropped off without word and Bender walks in. In the library, they all settle in. Principal Vernon addresses the students, telling them what he expects from their time. Bender starts harassing the other students... Telling Claire, 'you couldn't ignore me if you tried.' They discuss the difference between social clubs and academic clubs... Like math and physics club. They discuss the complexities of wrestling, and rolling on the ground with sweaty men... Sounds familiar. Bender sabotages the library door so that it'll close. Vernon aggressively questions them as to why the door is closed...and they all agree that it just closed. After trying to rig the door open, Bender and Vernon go back and forth, and he keeps adding saturdays. Claire pleads for him to stop. The group is shown wasting time, drawing, paper football, shaking dandruff out of their hair, Brian tucks a boner, and eventually they all fall asleep. Vernon wakes them up for a bathroom trip. Afterwords, Claire describes how her parents use her against each other. Bender continues to antagonize, but they eventually even share names. Bender takes particular interest in Claire, asking how far shes been with a guy. Andrew stops him, and it briefly turns physical and Bender threatens to kill him. A brief conversation with Carl the janitor, a whistle along, and it's lunch. S:-The car claire is dropped off in is John Hughes car-The mom and sister with Brian are Anthony Michael Halls real mom and sister-Anyone ever have saturday school/detention? Any good stories?-Vernon giving Bender 2 months of saturday school... why would he want to be there that many saturdays? Though, he doesn't have a wedding band on. Andrew and Allison go to get drinks, and she finally breaks her silence, saying she drinks vodka. Andrew complains then about being good and wrestling with sweaty dudes...Unlike Tucker. Bender continues to antagonize, eventually outing Brian as a virgin...Claire pulls out sushi for lunch, Andrew has an entire grocery bag full of food, Allison makes some weird, crunchy, sugar sandwich, and Bender goes through Brians lunch the ends with Bender doing an super sarcastic Leave it to Beaver, impression of life at Brians house. Andrew notices Brians reaction and asks about Benders home... Which then gets pretty real. Ending with Andrew questioning the authenticity of his actions, and then shown a cigar burn on his forearm. He storms off, and is reflective. Vernon goes to the lounge, and they all follow Bender to his locker, which no one can explain why... Which we soon find out is weed. As they head back, they are trying to avoid Vernon, and we get the awesome 80's musical montage. (Fire in the twilight) Ending up at a locked gate, stuffing his weed in Brians pants, Bender takes off making a bunch of noise, Vernon following, ending in the gym, giving everyone else time to get back. Vernon gives a very stark view of Benders future...they leave; but in a closet, Vernon threatens Bender, and provides Bender with some perspective, giving him a free shot, which he doesn't take, and he calls him a gutless turd. As Vernon takes a slam, Bender crawls through the ceiling and crashes back to the library, stating he forgot his pencil. As the others cover for Bender, he steals a look and nearly a face-full up Claires skirt. Taking his weed from Brian, the others follow him to the back of the library to smoke. S:-Judd Nelson played this character method and didn't break, even between scenes. John Hughes almost fired him bc of how he treated Molly Ringwald off camera; though she said she was aware and was ok with it.-So Bender can say whatever he wants about anyone else, but then when its about his interpretation of his own home, that's too far? Should we feel bad for him? He's been a shit head the whole time.-What do you think about Bender? Is his life like he says or what? What is he doing today?-First time smoking weed? Brian and Claire are obviously super stoned and being silly. Andrew comes out from hotboxing in a room, and aggressively dances around, ending with screaming and a glass breaking, with Allison watching intently. Carl catches Vernon going through the restricted files. Andrew and Brian chat, and Allison finally joins in, offering that she stole his wallet. Claire and Bender discuss not throwing things away. Allison dumps her purse on the couch, stating shes always "ready to jam" because her home life is unsatisfying. Andrew tries to connect with Allison, who he reads pretty well, and she opens up to him, about her family, asking, "What did they do to you...?" like its something that happens to everyone... Very stark. Vernon and Carl talk, and Carl pegs him precisely. They're sitting in a circle, they go back and forth sharing and asking questions. Allison says she's screwing her therapist, Claire is prodded into answering if shes a virgin.... which she is. This leads to a discussion about how they're bizarre, and Andrew tells why he's in Saturday school...Taping a kids 'buns' together. And he gets very emotional. It impacts them all very deeply. Brian shares how Andrews dads intensity is like his grades, and failing shop. They move on to hidden talents, and Claire puts on lipstick with her cleavage, which Bender mocks, and the others chastise him for going after her... and he shares the differences in their christmases... Smoke up Johnny! They lament, asking if they're going to be like their parents, and Allison states its unavoidable, that when you grow up, your heart dies. Brian asks if they'll still be friends on Monday, and Claire tells them the truth that they wont be friends... they go back and forth about how shitty that is, and Brian shares why hes in Saturday school... because he was going to kill himself with a flair gun. Which they all laugh at. Which then prompts Allison to share that she did nothing to be there, she had nothing better to do. Segue to 80's musical montage. (we are not alone) S:-Any of y'all ever consider running away?-Would you say your bizarre? How so?-Tell zapping the kid in 8th grade story-Originally the dance montage was supposed to ONLY be Molly Ringwald, but she didn't want to do it alone, which then kind of spawned the 80's/Mtv dance montages. Bender is crawling back through the ceiling, Claire convinces Brian that he should write the essay Vernon asked them to write. Claire then takes Allison for a make over. Claire goes into the closet with Bender, as Allison FINALLY gets Andys attention after watching him the WHOLE TIME. Claire kisses Bender, and he offers to be something her parents use against each other. Andy complements Allison, who she states Claire did it. They all walk out together, Andy and Allison kiss, Claire gives Bender one of her diamond earrings, which he made fun of her for earlier. They share a kiss, and she leaves. Bender puts the earring in, and a voice over is heard: (voice over), Bender is shown walking across a field, he throws a fist in the air, freeze frame, and credits roll. S:-Kissing in front of the parents... Is it just me that thinks thats weird? That shit is NOT happening with my daughter. She'll sneak around like God intended. Web: https://theguysreview.simplecast.com/EM: theguysreviewpod@gmail.comIG: @TheGuysReviewPodTW: @The_GuysReviewFB: https://facebook.com/TheGuysReviewPod/

This week on Total Movie Recall, Steve and Ryan discover that there's actually an antidote to getting punched really, really hard. The cultural divide proves too much for Ryan in this wild, fantastic, hallucinatory Kung Fu epic of many names. The story is incomprehensible, the fights are nonsensical, but Steve still finds it defensible, while Ryan finds the editing reprehensible. There's no reason for this rhyme. Kung Fu Cult Master (1993) d. Jing Wong, Sammo Kam-Bo Hung Starring: Jet Li Man Cheung Chingmy Yau Set during the Yuen Dynasty, many sects compete for possession of the two golden swords which contain the secret to dominance of the world of martial arts. The first faction, led by Shaolin, consists of Shaolin, Wu Tang, Ngo Mai, Kun Lun, Hung Tung and Wah Shan. The second is the Ming Sect, otherwise known as the Fire Sect or Evil Sect, led by branch leaders Queen of Purple Dragon, King of White Eagle, King of Gold Lion and King of Green Bat. A student of Wu Tang, befriends Gold Lion and marries the daughter of White Eagle. He is killed for the secret of the location of the missing sword. His infant son witnesses this and vows revenge on the heads of the sect. Unfortunately he has a jinx which prevents him from learning martial arts.

It's part two of our Christmas chronicles and we saved the best for last: DIE HARD! The 1988 blockbuster put Bruce Willis on the map, was Alan Rickman's first movie ever, and, after nearly ten years of muscled-up bloody madness, redefined what action movies can be. We dive into all of that, plus key scenes featuring classic 1980s Guys like William Atherton and Paul Gleason, Jan de Bont's cinematography, and the genesis (or at least modern popularization) of the everyman action hero. And yes, James has a convincing argument for why this is a Christmas movie too. We also discuss the trailer for Wild Mountain Thyme and the idea of Christopher Walken doing an Irish accent, which leads into a discussion on English actors doing American accents for movies and how long it took for Bryne to realize that Christian Bale wasn't American. Plus, we *finally* officially rule on spoilers and how long people have until a spoiler is no longer a spoiler. Spoiler alert: it's probably shorter than you think. We also talk about Hallmark original movies and who we'd play in them, and why parents should give their children reasons when they say "no" to stuff.

This week, the Mapcap Crew are joined by Wally Hipolito (@wallyhipolito) of the Off the Stoop Podcast to chop it up about 199'7's Money Talks, starring Chris Tucker in his first headlining role. Directed by Brett Ratner, the film co-stars Charlie Sheen, Heather Locklear, Gerard Ismael, Elise Neal, Michael Wright, Paul Gleason, and Paul Sorvino. Reporter James (Charlie Sheen) brings petty crook Franklin (Chris  Tucker) to justice, but as Franklin is being taken to jail, he is unwittingly drawn into a violent prison break. The police pursue Franklin, mistakenly thinking he killed several officers, so the fugitive turns to James for help. Figuring he has stumbled upon the story of a lifetime, the journalist agrees to prove that Franklin is innocent. Unfortunately, things don't go smoothly, and both men find themselves on the run.

Episode NotesReel ReviewAs heard on this episode:The Breakfast Club: Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal (Paul Gleason). The disparate group includes rebel John (Judd Nelson), princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy), brainy Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) and Andrew (Emilio Estevez), the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same. | HuluScream: The sleepy little town of Woodsboro just woke up screaming. There's a killer in their midst who's seen a few too many scary movies. Suddenly, nobody is safe, as the psychopath stalks victims, taunts them with trivia questions, then rips them to bloody shreds. It could be anybody... Sidney, the quiet high school beauty with an ugly past... Billy, her faithful boyfriend with a frustrated sex life... Tatum, her cute best friend with a answer for everything... Casey, the lovely blonde who knows her thrillers... Geeky Randy, the scary movie fanatic... Stuart, the wild partier... Gale, the overeager TV reporter... even Dewey, the syrupy-sweet police officer. The only hope is to stay one step ahead of this crazed slasher--know your trivia. The clues are there; are you good enought to see them? | Hulu
