  • Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel - Episode 35 - September 1989
    Sep 20 2024

    For the final episode of "Gen-X Multiplex: The Prequel, 1989," Matt B and Brian P are going back to school (Westerburg High, specifically) for a deep dive into what is perhaps the greatest dark comedy/teen-movie satire of all time, HEATHERS, starring Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Kim Walker, Shannen Doherty (RIP), and Lisanne Falk. After that, they'll follow Winona into the afterlife as she summons everybody's favorite Neitherworld bioexorcist, Michael Keaton, in Tim Burton's 36-years later supernatural comedy sequel, BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE. Finally, they'll take Gen-X "auteur" Kevin Smith to task with a mini-review of THE 4:30 MOVIE & spitball the possibilities of their own multiplex-based feature film, before detonating the podcast itself, J.D. & Veronica style. Get those croquet mallets, Corn Nuts, and red scrunchies ready, and don't miss your last chance to join the Gen-X clique!

    Aug 31 2024

    August is Artificial Intelligence Month at the Multiplex, as Matt B and Brian P engage in full-scale "clone war" and employ dueling chatbots to help them review a slew of end-of-summer 1989 dumper releases. Join them for their retroactive takes on the Steve Martin domestic comedy PARENTHOOD, the Sly Stallone prison thriller LOCK UP, the Richard Dreyfuss racetrack farce LET IT RIDE, and the John Hughes/John Candy team-up UNCLE BUCK. Then, stay tuned as the boyz get extra "synthetic" with a review of ALIEN: ROMULUS and their rankings of the entire ALIEN franchise. Summer is winding down, and so is the Multiplex in this raucous, AI-assisted penultimate episode. Satisfy your existential shenanigan cravings and taste the August 1989 absurdity!

    Jul 26 2024

    The dog dayz of summer are upon us, and the Multiplex has the July 1989 canine slobber to prove it! Join Matt B & Brian P as they "decaffeinate" some racist South African baddies with Danny Glover & Mel Gibson in LETHAL WEAPON 2, discover if Meg Ryan & Billy Crystal can just be besties in WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, chase criminals (and their own tails) with Tom Hanks & a drooling French mastiff in TURNER & HOOCH, and finally drag returning champion and special guest Jeff M to the sandy finish line for his contractually obligated "solo review" of WEEKEND AT BERNIE'S. After that, they'll check in on two '80s-related Summer of 2024 sequels, BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F and MAXXXINE. Plus, Matt B logs mini-reviews of LONGLEGS and TWISTERS, as Brian attempts to inject his special brand™ of Absurdity into the mix. Get your flip flops and AirPods ready, because this is a super-sized Gen-X episode you don't wanna miss!!!
