Tripp and Andrew Laino have been watching movies together since 1992, and making fun of them together since 1999, when a rainy afternoon of babysitting turned into 8 hours of cheesy science fiction and jokes. Raised on a strict diet of 80s movies, the pair have an undying love for the decade and all of the weird, wonderful cinema therein, despite barely being there for it. Every other week (since 2014) they dissect a movie and the bizarre cinema quirks of 30-odd years ago.

We're back!
Join us for the 35th anniversary of Paul Verhoeven's stone-cold classic: RoboCop!
Is this the most realistic dystopian future? How goopy are the proceedings? Can you recognize someone by their pouty duck lips? Is this the most Psych-heavy episode of the show?
