What movie sparked the debate about 80's and 90's films?
Hello, may I help you? You can sure as hell try. Hi, I'm Abe Frohman, party of three for 12... Is there a problem? You're Abe Frohman. That's right, I'm Abe Frohman, the Sausage King of Chicago. Yeah, that's me.
This episode of the Commercial Break.
So that's how it is in their family. Every line is quotable. It is. So you're the sausage king of Chicago? Yes, yes.
The next episode of the Commercial Break starts now.
But welcome, we love you, anyway Yesterday, we had started a conversation that got kind of cut off because of a technical issue about a very popular cult classic movie for anybody who grew up in the 80s and probably the 90s, too. The never ending story. Yes. With Falcor and Atreyu. The story that never ends, if you will. That's why they call the thing the Sphinx tits.
Yes.
All four of them. My little six year old eyes.
And they're like, remember, they're like frozen or something. They're icy.
Yeah.
Well, no, they shoot out lasers.
Well, they do shoot out lasers. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They were crystal. Yeah, crystal.
Yes, they were crystal, and then they turned into gold, and then they went, zhoo! Literally, that was the eyeballs that shot, but I imagine the tits shot. Because that was a lot cooler for me. It got me a lot more jazzed up at three years old.
It was the eyes, but I kind of remember the tits, too.
We all remember the tits. It's the Mandela effect on Neverending Story about the tits on the Sphinx, on the whatever those were, those Egyptian sculptures a mile in the sky. You must like solve the riddle that they put out there. I thought it was the fear killer. Like if you showed fear, yeah, then it got you. Okay, and you had to run through. That's right. Quickly, okay. So in other words, and this is good. This is a good lesson in life for everybody, especially the young ones. If you show fear... The tits will come to life and destroy you. Don't show fear. Lasers will shoot out of the eyeballs. You have to be careful, kids. Be careful. Anyway, never-ending story. Great movie. We got on to Goonies, too. So Chrissy and I thought we'd dedicate an episode to our favorite 80s and 90s movies.
Critically acclaimed cult classics. Very exciting. We shall start the debate, and the debate shall rage on for at least the next 40 minutes. All right. Okay. You ready? You go. You tell me what... I mean, when you... There was this girl on TikTok the other day. I want to share this. This girl on TikTok. Beautiful young girl. I'm going to guess she's 25, 26 years old. And she's in her car and she's making a TikTok about... Imagine... being born in 1971 or 1972. Now, I'm not that old, but... Yeah. And she goes, you're born in a generation of great music, great movies, no telephones, no computers. You are... No processed, highly processed foods quite yet. You are living... True. True.
I was a teen in the 90s.
I was a teen in the 90s.
Yeah. But, of course, you remember the 80s movies because that's what you were growing up on.
Well, yeah, you wanted to be a big kid.
How do Bryan and Krissy feel about 'The NeverEnding Story'?
You couldn't go out. You know, you weren't going out with your friends. No. And so you were inside watching the TV.
Yes, and it was okay to watch rated R movies because HBO would let you do that. And your parents didn't care. They largely left us to... Raise ourselves. Now I'm helicoptering everything. And because the world, I think, is a lot more it's faster and more dangerous. I don't think my kids seeing hardcore porn at age two. You know what I'm saying? Right. So but back then it was just a squiggly tit on Cinemax in the middle of the night. But this girl was making a great point is that there really is kind of this golden era of 70s, 80s, 90s. And maybe I think after I think after 2001. This is a different world. You know what I'm saying? But the movies back then seemed to be so much better than they are today. Twisters 2 is not a classic.
Twisters with an S is not a classic. I debate anybody on this. Okay, go. What's your first? I'm going to fix this terrible squeal in the microphone.
Well, I mean, my first one that came to mind was Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
