Raising Arizona (1987) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 44

samedi 14 novembre 2026 • Durée 48:42

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

We’re are watching Raising Arizona (1987) for the first time on Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning! Brendan and Juan are heading back to the wonderfully bizarre world of the Coen Brothers to see whether this cult comedy classic still delivers the laughs nearly 40 years later.

Directed by Joel Coen and written by Joel and Ethan Coen, Raising Arizona follows H.I. McDunnough, a repeat convenience store robber, and Edwina, a former police officer who fall in love and decide to start a family. When they discover they’re unable to have children, they hatch a completely ridiculous plan to steal one of the quintuplets born to a wealthy local businessman.

Naturally, things don’t exactly go according to plan.

Starring Nicolas Cage, Holly Hunter, John Goodman, William Forsythe, and Sam McMurray, Raising Arizona is a uniquely chaotic crime comedy filled with eccentric characters, rapid-fire dialogue, absurd situations, unforgettable performances, and one of the most unusual stories in 1980s cinema.

But does Raising Arizona still hold up? Is it one of the greatest Coen Brothers movies? Does Nicolas Cage deliver one of his most entertaining performances? And how does this wonderfully strange comedy compare to the movies being made today?

Brendan and Juan are putting this 1987 comedy to the Nostalgia Check. We’re revisiting the characters, performances, storytelling, visual style, unforgettable scenes, and the offbeat humor that helped make Raising Arizona a cult favorite.

We’re also talking about the early filmmaking career of the Coen Brothers, the movie’s unique storytelling style, and why this strange little comedy has managed to stick around in pop culture for decades.

Is Raising Arizona one of the best Coen Brothers movies? What’s your favorite Nicolas Cage comedy performance? And does this movie still make you laugh?

Spaceballs (1987) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 43

samedi 7 novembre 2026 • Durée 52:21

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

MAY THE SCHWARTZ BE WITH YOU!

We’re firing up the Eagle 5, checking the merchandise, and heading back to a galaxy far, far away for a rewatch of Spaceballs (1987) on Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning!

Brendan and Juan are revisiting one of the most beloved science fiction comedy movies of the 1980s, and we’re asking the important question: Does Mel Brooks’ legendary Star Wars parody still hold up, or have we finally gone plaid?

Directed by comedy legend Mel Brooks, Spaceballs is a hilarious science fiction parody that takes aim at Star Wars, science fiction movies, and just about every space adventure cliché imaginable.

Starring Mel Brooks, John Candy, Rick Moranis, Bill Pullman, Daphne Zuniga, and Joan Rivers, Spaceballs follows the adventures of Lone Starr and Barf as they attempt to rescue Princess Vespa from the evil Dark Helmet and the ridiculously incompetent forces of Spaceball.

From the legendary Spaceballs merchandise jokes and ludicrous speed to Dark Helmet’s unforgettable antics, this movie is packed with iconic comedy moments that have become part of pop culture history.

But does Spaceballs still deliver the laughs nearly 40 years later? Are the jokes just as clever as we remember? And is this still the greatest Star Wars parody ever made?

Brendan and Juan are putting this 1987 comedy classic to the Nostalgia Check. We’re revisiting the characters, ridiculous plot, memorable performances, classic one-liners, and the jokes that made Spaceballs a staple of comedy movie history.

We’re also discussing Mel Brooks’ approach to parody, the movie’s relationship with the Star Wars franchise, and whether modern comedy movies could ever get away with something this gloriously ridiculous.

Expect plenty of laughs, movie nostalgia, questionable impressions, and two friends discovering whether the Schwartz is still strong with this one.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 42

samedi 31 octobre 2026 • Durée 48:28

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

Raccoon City is in trouble, the T-Virus is spreading, and apparently the solution to a zombie apocalypse is one extremely capable woman with an unlimited supply of ammunition.

Welcome back to Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning! Brendan and Juan are watching Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) for the very first time!

Directed by Alexander Witt, Resident Evil: Apocalypse is the second installment in the Resident Evil movie franchise and picks up after the events of the first film. The T-Virus has escaped containment, Raccoon City is overrun with zombies and infected creatures, and Alice finds herself fighting for survival while Umbrella Corporation attempts to contain the disaster.

Starring Milla Jovovich, Sienna Guillory, Oded Fehr, Thomas Kretschmann, and Jared Harris, this 2004 action horror sequel brings the world of the Resident Evil video games to life with more zombies, bigger action sequences, mutated monsters, and the introduction of some familiar faces from the gaming franchise.

But does Resident Evil: Apocalypse actually hold up? Is it an underrated 2000s zombie horror movie, a fun action-packed sequel, or a video game adaptation that goes completely off the rails?

Brendan and Juan are putting this zombie-filled sequel to the Nostalgia Check. We’re discussing the story, characters, action, special effects, video game references, and whether this movie successfully builds on the original Resident Evil.

How does Alice compare to the video game characters? Does the introduction of Nemesis make this sequel even better? And is Raccoon City one of the coolest settings in early 2000s horror?

Expect movie discussion, comedy, zombie chaos, nostalgic video game references, and plenty of opinions as we discover whether Resident Evil: Apocalypse deserves a place among the memorable horror sequels of the 2000s.

Saw (2004) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 41

samedi 24 octobre 2026 • Durée 59:30

Two strangers. One filthy bathroom. A terrifying game with rules nobody wants to follow.

We’re revisiting Saw (2004) on Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning! Brendan and Juan are returning to the movie that launched one of horror’s biggest franchises to see whether James Wan’s original psychological horror classic still holds up more than 20 years later.

Released in 2004, Saw follows Adam and Dr. Lawrence Gordon, two men who wake up chained inside a rundown bathroom with no clear explanation of how they got there. As they discover clues left behind by the mysterious Jigsaw Killer, they realize they’re trapped in a deadly game where survival comes at a horrifying price.

Directed by James Wan and written by Leigh Whannell, Saw stars Cary Elwes, Leigh Whannell, Danny Glover, Monica Potter, and Tobin Bell in his unforgettable introduction as John Kramer, the man who would become known as Jigsaw.

But is Saw still one of the smartest horror movies of the 2000s? Does its low-budget filmmaking, psychological tension, and infamous twist hold up on a rewatch? And how much does knowing the ending change the experience?

Brendan and Juan are putting this horror classic to the Nostalgia Check. We’re revisiting the story, the performances, the traps, the suspense, and the decisions that turned a relatively small independent horror movie into a massive franchise.

We’re also looking back at what made the original Saw different from the wave of torture horror and so-called torture porn that became popular throughout the 2000s. Is Saw really just about gruesome traps, or is there more going on beneath the blood and grime?

Expect movie discussion, comedy, horror nostalgia, and plenty of opinions as we revisit the movie that made an entire generation suspicious of abandoned bathrooms.

Does Saw (2004) still hold up? Is it the best movie in the franchise? And did you figure out the ending the first time you watched it?

Sleepaway Camp (1983) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 40

samedi 17 octobre 2026 • Durée 51:32

Summer camp. Bad decisions. Questionable counselors. And a whole lot of reasons to never send your kids away for the summer again.

Welcome back to Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning! Brendan and Juan are diving into the 1983 cult horror classic Sleepaway Camp for the very first time as our October Spooky Movies series continues.

Written and directed by Robert Hiltzik, Sleepaway Camp follows Angela Baker, a shy teenager sent to summer camp with her cousin Ricky. But what should be a summer of swimming, friendships, and campfire stories quickly turns into something much darker when a series of brutal and mysterious murders begins targeting the campers and staff.

Starring Felissa Rose, Jonathan Tiersten, Karen Fields, and Christopher Collet, Sleepaway Camp has earned its place in horror movie history thanks to its low-budget slasher style, memorable characters, shocking finale, and reputation as one of the most talked-about cult horror movies of the 1980s.

But does Sleepaway Camp actually hold up today? Is it an underrated slasher classic, a wonderfully weird piece of 1980s horror, or a movie that gets remembered more for its infamous ending than anything else?Brendan and Juan are putting this summer camp nightmare to the test with a first-time watch on Nostalgia Check. We’re talking slasher movie tropes, camp horror, the performances, the kills, the story, and the moments that make this movie such a memorable entry in horror cinema.

Expect honest reactions, comedy, movie discussion, and two hosts discovering what happens when summer camp goes spectacularly wrong.

And if you’ve already seen Sleepaway Camp, you know why this movie has remained a cult favorite for decades. If you haven’t, we’re not spoiling the ending here. You’re going to want to experience that one for yourself.

Have you seen Sleepaway Camp? Does it deserve its reputation as a cult horror classic? And where does it rank among the best 1980s slasher movies? Tell us in the comments!

CUJO (1983) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 39

samedi 10 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:04:17

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

We’re back for our October Spooky Movies series, and this week on Nostalgia Check, Brendan and Juan are facing one of the most infamous animals in horror movie history…CUJO!

Released in 1983 and based on the bestselling novel by Stephen King, Cujo is a psychological horror thriller about a mother and her young son who become trapped inside a car while a massive, rabies-infected St. Bernard terrorizes them from the outside. What begins as an ordinary day turns into a desperate fight for survival, and suddenly man’s best friend is the last thing you want to see coming toward you.

Starring Dee Wallace, Danny Pintauro, Daniel Hugh Kelly, and Christopher Stone, Cujo is one of the most recognizable Stephen King movie adaptations of the 1980s. But nearly 43 years later, does this classic horror movie still deliver the scares?

Brendan and Juan are watching Cujo for Nostalgia Check, presented by BJ in the Morning. We’re putting this Stephen King adaptation to the test, discussing its performances, suspense, terrifying premise, memorable scenes, and place in 1980s horror movie history.

Is Cujo genuinely frightening, or does the movie’s reputation do most of the heavy lifting? How well does the film build tension around such a simple premise? And how does this Stephen King adaptation hold up for two movie fans experiencing it for the first time?

Last week, we kicked off our October Spooky Movies series with Event Horizon (1997). Now we’re trading deep space nightmares for a small-town nightmare on four legs.

Subscribe to BJ in the Morning for more Nostalgia Check episodes, horror movie reviews, first-time watches, rewatches, and conversations about whether the movies of the past still hold up today.

Event Horizon (1997) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 38

samedi 3 octobre 2026 • Durée 50:06

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

We’re kicking off October with a trip straight into the depths of space and possibly straight into hell. Welcome to the first episode of our October Spooky Movies series on Nostalgia Check, where Brendan and Juan finally watch the 1997 sci-fi horror classic Event Horizon for the very first time!

Starring Sam Neill, Laurence Fishburne, Joely Richardson, and Jason Isaacs, Event Horizon follows a rescue crew sent to investigate a mysterious spaceship that has reappeared after disappearing during its experimental journey through space. What they discover aboard the Event Horizon is something far more horrifying than they ever imagined.

Directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, this 1997 science fiction horror film has built a legendary reputation for its disturbing imagery, psychological terror, unsettling atmosphere, and unforgettable descent into cosmic horror.

But does Event Horizon still hold up nearly 30 years later? Is it a genuinely terrifying horror movie, an underrated sci-fi masterpiece, or just a collection of disturbing nightmares held together by a spaceship?

Brendan and Juan are putting this cult horror classic to the test in our first-time watch episode of Nostalgia Check. Expect hilarious reactions, horror movie discussion, nostalgic movie analysis, and plenty of questionable decisions made by people who probably should not be allowed anywhere near a haunted spaceship.

And we’re just getting started. Next week, our October Spooky Movies series continues with Cujo (1983), the Stephen King adaptation about a family trapped in a car with a very angry, very dangerous dog. It’s going to be a barking good time.

Starship Troopers (1997) - Nostalgia Check

Saison 3 · Épisode 37

samedi 26 septembre 2026 • Durée 57:23

SEND US SOME FAN MAIL

We are rewinding the clock and rewatching Paul Verhoeven’s outrageous sci-fi action classic to find out if this movie still holds up nearly 30 years later.

Before the internet turned Starship Troopers into one of the most frequently misunderstood cult movies of the 1990s, it was a giant bug killing, space fighting, military science fiction movie packed with explosions, gore, cheesy performances, wild special effects, and a whole lot more going on underneath the surface.

In this episode of Nostalgia Check, BJ and Juan revisit Starship Troopers and take a fresh look at the movie we remember from the 1990s. Does the action still deliver? Do the giant bugs still look awesome? How well do the practical effects and visual effects hold up? Is the acting intentionally over the top or just wonderfully ridiculous? And perhaps most importantly, does the satire and political commentary behind Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers still land today?

We talk about Casper Van Dien, Denise Richards, Dina Meyer, Neil Patrick Harris, Michael Ironside, Jake Busey, Clancy Brown and the rest of the Starship Troopers cast, along with the movie’s unforgettable battle sequences, giant alien bugs, military propaganda, futuristic society, controversial themes, brutal violence, ridiculous dialogue, and massive 1990s sci-fi movie energy.

We also look at Starship Troopers as a piece of 1990s movie history and ask the bigger Nostalgia Check question: Are we remembering the movie accurately, or are we remembering the version of it that existed in our heads?

This isn’t just a review. It’s a rewatch.

Nostalgia Check is BJ in the Morning’s movie series where we revisit movies from across the last several decades, putting our memories and nostalgia to the test. Some movies get better with age. Some don’t. And some turn out to be completely different movies than we remembered.

So grab your helmet, report for duty, and join us for another Nostalgia Check.

The Abyss (1989) is finally getting its Nostalgia Check!

For this episode of Nostalgia Check presented by BJ in the Morning, we are watching James Cameron’s underwater science fiction epic for the FIRST TIME. No nostalgia. No rose colored glasses. No childhood memories telling us something is better than it actually is. Just two movie fans going back to 1989 to find out whether The Abyss still holds up.

Starring Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Michael Biehn, The Abyss follows a civilian underwater drilling crew recruited to investigate a mysterious sunken nuclear submarine. What starts as a dangerous recovery mission quickly turns into something much bigger when the crew encounters something they were never expecting deep beneath the ocean.

So after more than 35 years, the big question is:

DOES THE ABYSS STILL HOLD UP?

Is this an overlooked James Cameron masterpiece?

Does the underwater filmmaking still look incredible?

Do Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Michael Biehn deliver?

Does the science fiction story still work?

Are the practical effects and visual effects still impressive?

And most importantly…

DOES THE ABYSS PASS THE NOSTALGIA CHECK?

Join Brendan and Juan for another episode of Nostalgia Check as we revisit the movies that shaped our moviegoing history, discover movies we somehow missed, and put nostalgia itself on trial.

Nostalgia Check is all about looking back at movies from across the last several decades and asking a simple question: are these movies actually as good as we remember, or have we been letting nostalgia do the heavy lifting?

Expect movie reviews, movie discussions, comedy, movie trivia, behind the scenes stories, filmmaking history, unpopular opinions, nostalgia, and plenty of arguments about whether a movie deserves to be remembered.

We are going back to the world under the bed with a rewatch of Little Monsters (1989)! Starring Fred Savage, Howie Mandel, Daniel Stern, Margaret Whitton, and Ben Savage, this bizarre fantasy comedy was a childhood favorite for a lot of people. But does Little Monsters still hold up all these years later?

On this episode of Nostalgia Check presented by BJ in the Morning, we revisit the 1989 cult classic and put our childhood memories to the test. We talk about the story, characters, performances, practical effects, weird moments, childhood nostalgia, and all the things we completely forgot about this movie.

Is Little Monsters actually a great nostalgic kids movie, or were we just too young to know better?

We are looking at Little Monsters 1989, Fred Savage, Howie Mandel, childhood movies, 80s movies, 90s nostalgia, fantasy movies, comedy movies, cult classics, movie rewatches, nostalgic movies, movies from the 1980s, and whether childhood favorites still hold up today.

This is Nostalgia Check, where we revisit movies we remember, discover movies we missed, and find out whether nostalgia deserves a passing grade.
