Damn Good Movie Memories

Episode 177 - Porky's (1981)

The slew of wild comedies from the early 1980s might have began a few years earlier with National Lampoon's Animal House, but it reached new levels with the original Porky's.

A little known, but very well done screwball comedy about two strangers who meet on a park bench and become the maid and butler to a gangster. Starring Herbert Marshall and Jean Arthur.

Episode 175 - The Other Guys (2010)

Easily one of the best buddy cop comedies ever made: with Gator, desk pops, Dirty Mike and The Boys, an accidental shooting of NY Yankees legend Derek Jeter and much more! Starring Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes, and Michael Keaton. Directed by Adam McKay.

Episode 174 - The Nutty Professor (1996)

Episode 173 - Necessary Roughness (1991)

It's a fumble...FUMBALAYA, FUMBLERUSKI! Even if you don't remember the movie, you remember Rob Schneider's play-by-play. Starring Scott Bakula, Hector Elizondo, Robert Loggia, Sinbad, Larry Miller, Jason Bateman, and Kathy Ireland.

Episode 172 - My Best Friend is a Vampire (1988)

Never seen this movie? You're definitely not alone. However, if you like 80s teen movies that involve vampires, you probably still missed this one!

Episode 170 - Mr. Mom (1983)

220 or 221? If you know the answer, then you also know what an underrated gem this movie is. So, break out your "woobie" and remember it's "South to drop off, MORON!" Starring Michael Keaton, Terri Garr, and Martin Mull. Written by John Hughes.

Episode 169 - Midnight (1939)

With classic fairy tale elements to the plot similar to Cinderella, you can also see how "Midnight" influenced future films like "Pretty Woman". Starring Claudette Colbert, Don Ameche, Mary Astor, and John Barrymore. Co-written by Billy Wilder.

Episode 168 - Maximum Overdrive (1986)
