In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

We're breaking all of the Old Millennials Remember Movies unwritten rules by talking about an 80-year-old classic to close out 2021....err, we mean jumpstart 2022! So, obviously, "The Wizard of Oz" is not an 80s movie, or a 90s movie, or, gasp, an early 2000s movie, but it's one of those legacy titles that can define a young person's movie-watching education. The 1939 fantasy musical, directed (mostly) by Victor Fleming and based on the L. Frank Baum novel, is known for its iconic characters, use of Technicolor, "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and Judy Garland's ruby slippers, among many other things. It's also a movie about a trio of dopey sidekicks and the little dog that has more on-screen charisma than the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion put together. That's right, we said it! Those brainless, heartless, wimpy tag-alongs are kinda annoying! Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela came to "The Wizard of Oz" at different points in their childhood. Angela saw it a bunch of times at a young age thanks to her older sister and enthusiastic aunts. Tyler, however, didn't watch the movie in-full until sometime in high school, though "Oz" is so ingrained in popular culture, most kids know key bits (the Yellow Brick Road, "There's No Place Like Home," etc.) from other things. For this viewing, Tyler and Angela try to understand their previously unenthusiastic reactions to the movie, as well as what happened when they introduced their kids to Dorothy and her witch-murdering ways. Learn why Tyler thinks the movie is best when it's in black-and-white and if Angela can learn how to tolerate Bert Lahr's constant, cowardly moaning. Also in this episode, discussions on coma-inducing makeup, Munchkin pay scales and the old-fashioned wonderfulness of Parade Magazine. Find it in your local Sunday newspaper!

Legally Blonde – 2001 – ep 135 1:49:02

منذ عام واحد1:49:02

1:49:02

Don’t hate her because she’s beautiful. Hate her because she’s the smartest person in the room. While the marketing for “Legally Blonde” suggested a movie about a ‘dumb blonde squaring off against academia,’ it’s clear from the onset that Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods is more than equipped to handle Harvard Law School and the spoiled rich kids who think wearing pink is a crime. The box office success of “Legally Blonde” propelled Witherspoon to the A-List (culminating in an Oscar win in 2005 for “Walk the Line.”) It’s also a pretty unusual movie with each of the three acts working in their own distinct genre. Act I is a rom-com setup with Elle trying to win back her superficial college boyfriend. Act II is a “college” movie where Elle struggles to connect with the other Harvard snobs. And Act III is set in the courtroom (never mind that Elle has only completed, maybe, a single semester of law school). Luckily, it’s all pleasantly comedic! Even after more than 20 years! Also, look! Sexism and toxic masculinity lives on forever! Old Millennials hosts Angela and Tyler examine the legacy of “Legally Blonde,” including how the movie drastically changes the tone of its source material (the book by Amanda Brown) and whether the great Jennifer Coolidge rescues the notorious “Bend and Snap” sequence. Also, one of the co-hosts is currently enrolled in law school! What’s realistic about the depiction? Why did Harvard agree to let their school seem… well… less than stellar? How the hell does anyone manage a near-perfect score on their LSAT exam? Seriously, that test is hard! It’s all here in the latest episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies, including a segment where Tyler tries to remember what he learned in Criminal Law (it goes poorly). Also, inexplicably, Tyler considers himself to be the “Elle Woods of his law school.” Good luck getting the Bar to consider your admission, Bud!

Best Movies of 2023 – ep 134 1:38:24

منذ عام واحد1:38:24

1:38:24

In this special episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies, we remember and share our favorite movies from 2023. Despite his intense schedule of law school, continuing to write part-time, and still helping to raise our four kids, Tyler still found time to watch more than 125 movies that came out in 2023. Per usual, he came up with a pretty respectable list for his Top 10 Movies for 2023. I, on the other hand, crammed as many 2023 movies in weeks before recording (and delayed recording until March!). I also wanted to spice it up and try something different this year, so I ended up choosing specific criteria that ruled out some of the more popular movies of the year. It challenged me to watch some movies I otherwise might not have watched. Even though our lists are pretty different, we have some fantastic crossovers. Take a break from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s movies with the Old Millenials, and check out some great flicks from 2023 (many of which are available to stream at home). We'll be back to our usual programming next week! We have been in the mood to re-watch Titanic, but we'll see... Tyler's Top 10 Anatomy of a Fall Past Lives Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse Barbie All of Us Strangers Asteroid City May December Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret Tie: Killers of the Flower Moon AND Oppenheimer (Tyler is a cheater) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Angie's 2023 Top 10 Bottoms Polite Society Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret Quiz Lady A Thousand and One Fair Play Past Lives Barbie Rye Lane Nimona Tyler's 2023 Honorable Mention American Fiction Bottoms Dream Scenario Godzilla Minus One The Holdovers The Iron Claw John Wick: Chapter 4 Polite Society Poor Things The Zone of Interest It was a great year for movies in 2023, and I'm looking forward to a strong showing in 2024 as well as some re-visits to our past-time flicks from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Thanks for Listening! -Angie…

Hercules – 1997 – ep 133 1:20:50

منذ عامين1:20:50

1:20:50

"Hercules! Hercules Hercules!" - some Eddie Murphy character not in Disney's "Hercules." The first half of the 1990s was a pinnacle for Disney Animation. After the run of "The Little Mermaid" (technically 1989), "Beauty and the Beast," "Aladdin" and "The Lion King" (plus Pixar's debut "Toy Story" in 1995), the studio had nowhere to go but down, though many Old Millennials (us included) will vouch for the likes of "Mulan" and "Pocahontas." But "Hercules?" Man, "Hercules" is weird. Trying to Disney-fi grisly mythology is a daunting task all on its own. Then attempt to add songs, an underdeveloped female pro/antagonist, and a rambling James Woods as Hades. It's a colorful movie but messy as a functional narrative. That's not even mentioning Danny DeVito doing a dry run for Frank Reynolds on "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," and, look, that sounds good on paper, but his sidekick character Phil might be a sex predator, which seems a little out of place here. Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela try to remember if they ever even saw "Hercules" back in the 90s. They did, but, you know, it's not that memorable. Plenty to discuss nevertheless, including a nerdy breakdown of how the movie squanders its best song, "Go the Distance," by splitting it up into 20-second segments in between expository dialogue. The Old Millennials also attempt to decipher Meg, a character with a fiery personality and a muddled backstory. We'd rather watch a movie all about Meg and why she appears to be indebted to Hades. Hercules is a dullard. Plain toast. Maybe a little margarine. You may believe it's butter, but you won't believe they created such a dull lead for this movie.

Batman Forever – 1995 – ep 130 1:33:33

منذ 3 أعوام1:33:33

1:33:33

"Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey." The swooning words to Seal's mega-hit song from the "Batman Forever" soundtrack most likely refers to the relationship between Batman/Bruce Wayne and Dr. Chase Meridian, and definitely NOT the working relationship between actors Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey. So the legend goes, the crusty Oscar winner did not sanction Mr. Carrey's buffoonery. Despite stories of onset turmoil thanks to Jones and Val Kilmer (taking the cape and cowl from Michael Keaton), "Batman Forever" was a box office sensation in 1995, thanks in large part to Carrey's mid-9os superstardom. The quip-filled script and decidedly lighter touch from director Joel Schumacher was also a welcome relief to studio execs who thought Tim Burton's gloomy, grimy (and brilliant) "Batman Returns" from 1992 was way too dark for superhero-obsessed kiddos. It wasn't just the box office. The soundtrack sold millions, McDonald's sold amazing glassware, and the studio felt so good they let Schumacher go even crazier with the 1997 sequel, "Batman & Robin." Yeesh. So is "Batman Forever" anything substantial besides a corny 90s relic? Yes and no. The movie has some incredible production design, and, despite a few too many quips, the manic energy of Carrey suits this version of The Riddler just fine. And, wowza, Nicole Kidman is super horny for Batman in this movie. Bruce Wayne though? Eh, he's just okay. It's Jones' Two-Face that sticks out like a half-scarred thumb. Clearly the dude wanted to be the Top Villain in the movie, and that meant going as BIG as Jim Carrey. Big mistake, Sam Gerard. Old Millennials Remember Batman Forever Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela discuss showing their very baffled kids "Batman Forever" for the first time, as well as the entire family's confusion over the age of Chris O'Donnell's Dick Grayson (aka Robin). Bruce Wayne takes him in so as to avoid paperwork at Gotham Child Services, but Dick Grayson is obviously 30 YEARS OLD. They also discuss bat-nipples (of course), the incompetence of Commissioner Gordon and Alfred's lackadaisical approach to Wayne Manor security. Plus we have a rundown of our favorite terrible lines, from "My life's an open book, do you read?" to "Wanna take a ride in my love machine, BAEBAE?!" But we will defend a few other lines, like, say, "That's never going to heal if you don't stop picking" and "Holy rusted metal, Batman!" Because the ground... it's metal... it's full of holes...

Peggy Sue Got Married – 1986 – ep 129 1:25:23

منذ 3 أعوام1:25:23

1:25:23

What if you could travel back in time to undo all the stupid decisions you made as a teenager? Sounds like a fantasy of many Old Millennials out there, or really anyone who went to high school beyond yesterday. That's (sort of) the premise of "Peggy Sue Got Married," which sees the titular character played by Kathleen Turner pass out at her 25-year high school reunion and wake up in 1960 during her senior year. Her biggest decisions center on Charlie, the man she'd marry shortly after high school. They have two children together in the future, but Charlie also becomes a philandering car salesman, which isn't as cool as that other guy in high school who became a billionaire after writing a book about kites... or whatever. Oh, did we mention Charlie is played by Nicolas Cage doing a high pitched voice he modeled after the character of Pokey on "The Gumby Show"? The way he says the phrase, "MY WANG!" will be burned into your ears forever. As you might guess, Cage's bizarre acting choice created some friction with Turner, not to mention his uncle - the film's director, Francis Ford Coppola. Believe it or not, Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela have plenty to say about "Peggy Sue Got Married" before they even spend a second deciphering the Nic Cage of it all. Topics include the early antics of Jim Carrey in a supporting role, Peggy Sue's grandpa, who appears to be a member of the Stonecutters alongside Homer Simpson, as well some of the story's key omissions regarding the fatalist logic of Peggy Sue's journey. Can she really change anything in the past? Or is she only here to gain a new appreciation for the life she's chosen to live? But don't worry, Cage-fanatics, Tyler and Angela talk about him too, in particular that moment in which he goes full Nosferatu while sneaking into Peggy Sue's bedroom (Cage was just warming up for "Vampire's Kiss"). The big question: Even if you think it's a good performance, does Cage end up derailing the film's dramatic impact?

Lake Placid – 1999 – ep 128 1:25:05

منذ 3 أعوام1:25:05

1:25:05

You might be surprised to learn that the little-seen creature-feature "Lake Placid" contains more sparring between Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Platt than it does giant crocodile mayhem. And it's all the better for it! David E. Kelley, notable creator and writer of courtroom dramas like "The Practice," "Boston Legal" and "Ally McBeal," wrote this Croc Attack flick back in 1999... for reasons unknown. It just seems like a left-field choice, amirite? Oh well, because it's super weird and filled with profanity-infused one-liners from an over-qualified cast, including Bill Pullman, Bridget Fonda, Platt and Gleeson (that "small-town-sheriff" American accent aside). Go for Pullman's lazy charm and stay for the glorious Betty White (RIP) delivering some of the best jabs in the movie in all of maybe five minutes of screen time. She's rooting for the crocodile, obviously. Old Millennials Remember "Lake Placid" Co-hosts Angela and Tyler jump into the water of this comedy/horror oddity, which clocks in at barely 80 minutes (it doesn't need to be longer). Tyler recalls his harsh, teenage-brain first impression of the movie as well as his subsequent reappraisal after countless cable TV viewings. Additionally, Tyler and Angela unravel the bizarre backstory of Fonda's character and try to figure out how the guy who wrote a whole television series about a smart legal professional could reduce a lead character in his high-profile blockbuster to essentially, "Woman no like be outside." The Old Millennials also discuss the film's stellar animatronic crocodile (courtesy of Stan Winston and Co.!), the curiously small body count and all the delightful contradictions of Platt's "mythical croc scholar." Most importantly, we learn that you're supposed to say "Go" before starting Karate.

Spider-Man – 2002 – ep 127 1:09:30

1:09:30

"You're out, Gobby. Out of your mind!" While "X-Men" became a superhit in the 2000 (in the YEAR 2000!), the real onslaught of superhero movies began in 2002 with Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man," a sometimes-silly-but-undeniably entertaining origin story about everyone's favorite wall crawler. Yes, that Green Goblin mask looked stupid in 2002, so much so that future iterations of the character rarely returned to the face covering (it's pointedly out of commission early on in "No Way Home"). By oh my, what a spectacularly over-the-top performance by Willem Dafoe, playing two wildly different sides to OG baddie Norman Osborn. Old Millennials Remember Movies hosts Tyler and Angela were just finishing up high school upon the release of "Spider-Man," and one host gave the film a notoriously mixed review in print back in the day. Has his attitude changed, or is he still going on and on about the masterful "Spider-Man 2" and the presence of GOAT Spidey-villain, Doctor Octopus? DOC OCK!!! The Old Millennials discuss early 2000s CGI, the tricky balancing act of origin stories, the joy J.K. Simmons brings to the screen in such a small role as J. Jonah Jameson, and the underrated charm of Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson. Plus, hey, isn't that Octavia Spencer and Joe Mangia... Mangianellia.... that werewolf guy from "True Blood?" Tyler and Angela also split on Tobey Maguire... is his aw-shucks performance as Peter Parker anything? They also question whether or not their 4-year-old is now permanently scarred by watching Willem Dafoe cackle like a murderous maniac. Plus, hey, be warned, we totally spoil various elements of "Spider-Man: No Way Home." Look, it's been out for months, and even the TV commercials for the Blu-ray keep showing the worst kept secret in Hollywood. We warned you!

Battle of 90s Sequels – March Madness + SXSW – ep 126 2:43:12

منذ 3 أعوام2:43:12

2:43:12

In a battle of prominent sequels of the 1990s, only the best make it to the Final Four... unless one of the Old Millennials Hosts screws up the seeding... then anything can happen! That's right, "Lethal Weapon 4" has a shot at glory! In our third installment of a (late) March tradition, Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela compare brackets and argue about 32 (ish) 90s-era sequels to decide the best of the best. Keep in mind, these are sequels, and, well, most of them aren't really that great. Our bracket begins with four definitive quadrants: Comedy Sequels - including titles like "Addams Family Values," "Wayne's World 2" and an explosive play-in game between "Hot Shots: Part Deux" and a "Very Brady Sequel." Also, listen to Tyler needlessly defend "City Slickers 2: The Legend of Curly's Gold." Sequels for the Kids - can anything beat Pixar's "Toy Story 2"? "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" and a couple "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sequels want a shot. Also, watch out "3 Ninjas Knuckle Up." LOL, it has no shot. Blockbuster Sequels - Tyler and Angela set up a bloodbath between some of the decade's most successful films, from "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" to various "Batmans," a "Jurassic Park" and more. Outliers and oddities - Listen, don't think to hard about the logic of this final pack of nine titles (which includes a battle between "Look Who's Talking" sequels. We couldn't fit everything easily, okay! Anyway, check out a "Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit," an "Army of Darkness" and a beloved "Star Trek" entry. Tyler plays the game with his heart, while Angela builds a complicated points system to determine the TRUE choice. There will be disagreements. There will be tears. There will be some baffling movie opinions. Also in this episode, Tyler shares a few highlights from his virtual experience at the South by Southwest 2022 film festival, including takes on movies available now or will soon be available. Also, Angela breaks Tyler's heart over the new "West Side Story."

Hook – 1991 – ep 125 1:55:09

منذ 3 أعوام1:55:09

1:55:09

"Lookie, Lookie, I got traumatic memories of Captain Hook stabbing a child to death." Years before Legacy Sequels were cool, Steven Spielberg decided to ask the question, "What if Peter Pan grew up and forgot all about Neverland?" Turns out he'd be a corporate lawyer and his kids hate him! "Hook" had a killer premise, an incredible cast led by Robin Williams and Julia Roberts and that steady Spielbergian hand. The marketing for the film was such an enticing tease too... how about that little hook-shaped latch on the window? Killer! Dustin Hoffman gets top billing as Captain Hook, and you don't even see him in the trailer! In hindsight, it seems like Spielberg was hiding the part of the movie set in Neverland, after Hook kidnaps Grown Peter's kids. Some impressive set design aside, the meat of "Hook" that takes place in fantasy land mixes so many strange tones and subplots that it's hard to get invested. Peter makes out with mermaids, gets a convoluted origin story and kisses his future wife while she sleeps (consent dude!). And Tinkerbell turns big, and Captain Hook is suicidal. Also Hook can somehow brainwash Peter's son into forgetting all about his own father in a span of just three days. But don't worry, kids, there's a food fight! Bangarang! Old Millennials Remember Movies hosts Tyler and Angela try to crack the wild mess that is "Hook." Is this Spielberg's worse movie? Maybe? Is he even capable of making a completely bad movie? Well, no, there's still some really good moments here, especially in that opening act with Maggie Smith. Apparently Maggie Smith wore old age makeup to play 90-year-old Wendy, but how does she look EXACTLY LIKE THIS in 2022?! The Old Millennials talk about little league baseball (get a logo on that baseball cap, Charlie Korsmo!), Hoffman and Bob Hoskins screwing around in lieu of actual character work, the Lost Boy that somehow turns himself into a ball, that strange Glenn Close cameo, and, yes, the whole ordeal with Rufio, Rufio, ROOF - EEE - OHHH!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Trilogy – 1990-1993 – ep 124 1:37:35

منذ 3 أعوام1:37:35

1:37:35

Are you a "T-U-R-T-L-E Power" lad or a "Ninja Rap" kid? How you answer may determine what kind of fan you are of the 1990 live-action version of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and its two direct sequels from 1991 and 1993. If you said "Ninja Rap," then chances are your feelings about early 90s Turtle Mania is either ironic or steeped in heavy nostalgia. It's no secret that one Old Millennials Remember Movies host is one of the more die hard Ninja Turtles fans in the world (and you may find a few episodes of the sporadically recorded "Ninja Turtle Talk Live" podcast on the Old Millennials website). For the other Old Millennials host, well, she only really dove into the TMNT universe as an adult. In short, she holds no nostalgia for these rubber-suited, pizza-obsessed sewer dwellers. Here's the thing about the 1990 movie: It's much more like the original Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird comics, which leaned into the fighting and criminal underworld of New York City. Raphael is moody instead of sarcastic, and Shredder is a stone-cold badass who is smart enough to keep himself away from alien brain creatures and dimwitted mutant sidekicks. And much of the movie's story borrows heavily from various early issues of the comic series. Old Millennials Tyler and Angela take an extensive look at the 1990 original, which they also showed to their four kids for the first time. Tyler loves it, obviously, and Angela wants to start a fight, but, spoiler alert, she ultimately can't deny the grimy charm of the movie. At least we can agree that punk kid Danny deserves to go to jail, and that April's boss at the news station is a total creep. Also, give us more Sam Rockwell! Then the hosts dive into the far more divisive sequels, 1991's "The Secret of the Ooze," and 1993's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3," often subtitled nowadays as "Turtles in Time." Neither host have much to defend about "Ooze," but it gives Tyler an opportunity to talk about that time Angela went to see Vanilla Ice in concert. And, look, we know #3 is mocked for its shoddy rubber suits, idiotic jokes and lack of memorable villains, but you'll hear a somewhat spirited defense of the movie here. Look, at least the Turtles get to fight with their weapons, rather than with sausages and break dance moves like in "Secret of the Ooze." So join the Old Millennials for this special episode on the original TMNT trilogy, with talk of Judith Hoag vs. Paige Turco as April, the unacceptable absences of Elias Koteas as Casey Jones and Corey Feldman as the voice of Donatello in part 2, and about a thousand different tangents from Tyler about Ninja Turtles comics, the stellar 2003 animated series, the equally strong Nickelodeon series that started in 2012, and those garbage, Michael Bay-produced movies in the 2010s. And, remember, if you lose a sai, don't worry; you can get it back! You can get it back! Damn! Looking for a more obvious stinger? Fine. "Wise man say, 'Never pay full price for late pizza.'"

In this special episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies, hosts Tyler and Angela remember a few more recent titles - specifically their favorite movies of the last calendar year. Despite his general commitment to staying reclusive, Tyler saw quite a few more titles this year compared to others. Angela used up some of that same time watching "Game of Thrones." Both of them used January to catch up on some late breaking movies, and if the Oscars can have their telecast in late March, then the Old Millennials can sure as (expletive deleted) make their Top 10 lists in February. After a discussion on the 2021 Oscar nominations, the Old Millennials count down their personal Top 10 lists, and, as per tradition, both find ways to cheat the very simple instruction of "list 10 movies." Some of favorite movies of the past year include (in no particular order): "The Green Knight,""The Mitchells vs. the Machines," "The French Dispatch," "Pig," "West Side Story," "The Power of the Dog," "The Last Duel" and a few surprises! One movie that made both lists, "Nine Days," earns an odd mix of praise and scorn from Angela because of its generic title. We're complex people. Even though their lists are quite different, Tyler and Angela keep their disparaging remarks about the other person's lists to a surprising minimum. So take a break from the 80s, 90s and early 2000s movies with the Old Millennials, and check out some recent goodness, most of which is available to watch now from home. Then we'll go back to Jean Claude Van Damme movies or whatever next time.…

It's a little late, but it's Sandy New Year! For the fourth year, Old Millennials Remember Movies celebrates January with a Sandra Bullock movie. To celebrate 2022, we watched one of the worst Sandy Bullock movies around - 1999's atrocious "romantic comedy," "Forces of Nature." Because the start of 2022 deserves this piece of turd. The year 1999 is often regarded as one of the great movie years, and "Forces of Nature" probably doesn't crack the Top 150 of movies released that year. It stars Ben Affleck, hot off "Armageddon," as a book cover blurb writer (laugh out loud at that job) who is traveling from New York to Savannah, Ga. to marry Tea Leo....err... we mean Maura Tierney. Well, a pre-Sully, Sully situation happens on the plane and boom, Ben needs to take trains, automobiles (and buses) in order to make it to his wedding. But ooooh, complication! Sandy Bullock plays the alluring free spirit who becomes his traveling buddy, and sparks fly! Just kidding! There's no chemistry whatsoever between the two stars. Somebody call a J. Lo. or a J. Gar. Stat! In all fairness, Sandy Bullock acquits herself well here, playing a character who is appealing, flawed and mostly believable. So why isn't she more of the focus of this movie? Why do we have to listen to Affleck do baby talk on an airplane phone to a barely seen Maura Tierney? How do you cast Steve Zahn as the funny sidekick character and give him almost nothing to do?! And do you even know what kind of a master you have here in Richard Schiff, the great character actor who would go on to crush it on "The West Wing." Why is he doing almost nothing as this tour guide character? Why is he wearing that awful hat?! Let's be honest: "Forces of Nature" is terrible, but Old Millennials hosts Tyler and Angela find plenty of fascinating things to talk about anyway, including a rather spirited, Tierney-centric game of "Angela Explains It All." Tyler tries to defend his boy Affleck, with his strategy mostly focusing on the good work he's done 20+ years after "Forces of Nature." Watch "The Way Back" and "The Last Duel"! Happy Sandy New Year! Cheers to a better 2022... but if it continues being lousy out there, we're going to subject everyone to "Speed 2: Cruise Control" to open 2023. Also discussed on this episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies The Last Duel (2021) The Tender Bar (2021) The Lost Daughter (2021) The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021) The Protege (2021) Monster Hunter (2020) Hotel Transylvania 4: Transformania (2022) Check out OMRM's previous Sandy New Year episodes: The Net - 1995 - episode 28 While You Were Sleeping - 1995 - episode 64 Miss Congeniality - 2000 - episode 96…
