Back Track 016: Welcome to the party, pal! | Die Hard (1988) [Patreon Preview]

It's the New Year and we're back with more 90s films. This is the interesting part of the the show now because there are still so many essential films from the decade I haven't seen. The Crying Game is one of those films that has been on my list. Charles selected this one and I'm so glad I've finally experienced it. We get into the Oscars drama that year, all of Dil's fashion, and just how much the transgender community's portrayal in film and television has changed since the 90s. off topics rants: Tom Cruise and Top Gun, video rental hierarchy, who would play our parents in a Hollywood movie---Get OVER 80 BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show  for $5 a month!

for the full episode join the Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge]Gah! This documentary all three of us have been waiting to talk about and break down on the pod. We all have such different connections to this era in music that has stuck with us for the past twenty years. There was sooo much emphasis on The Strokes in this film but also goes into the formation of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol, The Moldy Peaches, LCD Soundsystem and more. Aside from what we loved about the era, we talk about some of the artists mentioned that we hated and the odd connection between Julian Casablancas and Courtney Love that def needs a deeper dive on a later episode.off-topic rants include: the indie sleaze of it all, the darkness of the industry, the bubbling emo scene  Vice article mentioned: https://www.vice.com/en/article/jgmkdp/the-indie-sleaze-revival-isnt-real-its-just-an-echo-chamber  --- Get OVER 80 BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show  for $5 a month!

It's finally time to talk a John Waters film here on the pod. Perfect because this is Charles' pick! I have never actually seen it and boy was it a side splitting time. With incredible casting and the adorable Edward Furlong & Christina Ricci. We get into why Tina is EVERYTHING, the many quotes, and why movie critics sometimes suck. off-topic rants include: Patty Hearst, Office tales, River Phoenix, and 90s teenage heartthrobs ---Get OVER 80 BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show  for $5 a month!

For the full episode join our Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge]Well...we're here. It's literally Jai's favorite film and she's been on edge waiting until we talked it here on the pod. It has been at least 20 years since I've seen this so it was a weird wild time revisiting it. In my previous watch I had no idea just how incredible the cinematography and production design was. While it's been inspiring creatives since the 70s, there is always something about the original that has to been seen. While me and Jai had differing views on the film as a whole, we still had a time! We get into the MANY behind the scenes deets, the FASHION, and just the overall weirdness that makes Kubrick a master and visionary of the visual arts. ----Get  BONUS episodes on 90s & 00s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more movies...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

Wow, what a steamy version of Batman and the gang that I never realized until watching and discussing all these years later. Bruce Wayne and the caped crusader are my all time fav comic hero so I'm jazzed to talk all things Gotham.Me and Mikey, (my resident comic nerd friend) get all into the controversy surrounding the themes in this film, the amazing casting and alternate choices, and pretty much talk for an hour about how Michelle Pfeiffer is fucking LEGEND.---GIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE to the main Fashion Grunge Podcast on 90s films!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Mikey @agentmikey007Follow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod
