Come chase this funnel with us!

The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)

Don’t blame us, we had never seen The Long Kiss Goodnight! We put this movie up on Patreon as an option for our weekly Executive Producer poll to determine what movie we would cover and they picked it over Mr. Holland’s Opus and The Ghost and the Darkness. This probably doesn’t belong in the Prestige category but we hope you’ll be willing to have a little fun with us in this Geena Davis and Sam Jackson amnesiatic-assassin movie.

That Thing You Do (1996)

It’s the 25th anniversary of That Thing You Do! It’s a whirlwind movie about the rise and fall of a fake 1950s pop band that popped right out of the Beatles mold. A bunch of young 90s names including Liv Tyler, Steve Zahn, Tom Everett Scott, and Charlize Theron are all wrangled by a very serious, but likeable Tom Hanks. We both love this movie and it’s a ton of fun so check out the podcast.

The Rock (1996) – Sequel Pitch

It’s fair to say that The Rock is a great action movie.  That’s why we decided that our first rewrite should be a sequel rather than a true remake of the original film.  Trust us, it’s better this way.  Though maybe don’t trust us too much because the sequel we came up with is called The Clock… and that’s probably the smartest thing about it.

The Rock (1996)
