It's a double feature summer at Movies That Made Us Gay, and we watched the original "Jurassic Park" and the latest entry "Jurassic World: Rebirth" with our friend and the newest member of the MTMUG Five Timers Club, Hiko Mitsuzuka. His monogrammed smoking jacket is on back order. Listen, what else can be added to the conversation about the original Jurassic Park? Yes, Laura Dern was a sexual awakening for many a young gay girl (and boy), yes the Dilophosaurus is a lesbian icon (much like the aforementioned Laura Dern), and yes...

We watched "Evil Under the Sun" (1982) with our friend and murder mystery expert Hiko Mitsuzuka, and you can find us all turban shopping for the foreseeable future.

It's our Black Friday weekend episode, and we watched Clue (1985) with pop culture aficionado Hiko Mitsuzuka @thefirstecho.

This film is instantly quotable (Flames Flames from the sides of my face), and everyone in the cast is bringing their A-game. We talk about the wild range of Tim Curry who did the Worst Witch, and Legend, the same year he played the butler Wadswroth. How Mr. Green (Michael Mckean) made us feel...

Movies That Made Us GayGo with special guest Hiko MitsuzukaOur ever-growing list of 90's movies continues - we watched Go (1999) with #friendofthepod Hiko Mitsuzuka (Ep 15, Adventures in Babysitting) and we would like to talk to you about Confederated Products. This movie is quite possibly the personification of the 90's as a decade. An extended rave, a roundtable conversation about tantric sex and a soundtrack featuring banger after banger by the likes of Len, Natalie Imbruglia and Los Del Rio; if a kid asks what the 90s were like, just show them Go.

Movies That Made Us GayAdventures in Babysitting with special guest Hiko MitsuzukaWe invited the very funny Hiko Mitsuzuka to sit in with us as we continue our streak of babysitter themed movies and watched the 1987 sleepover mainstay Adventures in Babysitting! We stan Elisabeth Shue super hard and it all started with her epic performance in this movie. We analyze Penelope Anne Miller's influence on todays 80's retro fashion (is Brenda the proto-Barb?). We pick up on some latent homo leanings from Daryl (Anthony Rapp) and we welcome with open arms Keith Coogan into the pantheon of Movies That Made Us Gay All Stars! Buckle up and most definitely, do NOT Eff...
