What other podcast could have episodes on Streets of Fire and My Neighbor Totoro?My Neighbor Totoro is the hit animated fairytale that almost didn't get made. It was a risky venture for Studio Gibli, but arguably it's the movie that made them an international powerhouse animation studio. Animation nerds love this movie. References to it have shown up in the Toy Story franchise and even Bob's Burgers. Will Allyson like My Neighbor Totoro as much as just about everyone else on the face of the planet?Of course she will! It's a movie about giant cat trolls!Join our Facebook group for more movie talk!https://www.facebook.com/groups/youmademewatchFollow us on Instagram @YouMadeMeWatch to get sneak peeks at which movie we'll talk about next.Logo by Martin Butler.

This was a brutal look at the gangs of New York, but isn't to be confused with the Gangs of New York, which was also a brutal look at the gangs of New York, but in a different century. Right before bodegas, luxury lofts and hipster coffee houses took over the mean streets of New York there were the Grammercy Riffs, the Baseball Furies and of course the Warriors!Join our Facebook group and let us know what you thought of The Warriors!https://www.facebook.com/groups/youmademewatchFollow us on Instagram @YouMadeMeWatch to get sneak peeks at which movie we'll talk about next.Logo by Martin Butler.

Comedians Mike Bobbitt and Allyson Bobbitt have an eleven year age gap between them. They both love entirely different kinds of movies. Each week one forced the other to watch a movie they love, but realize their partner may not.
Allyson grew up with family friendly and endearing movies from the 80s and 90s, while Mike has a soft spot for questionable 80s and 90s horror/sci-fi and action.
Mike is also a trivia nerd and dives deep into the background of each movie they discuss.
