Hey You GuysStar Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (Anniversary Edition)Send us a textEpisode 150 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and seeing that it is the 25th anniversary of the Prequel trilogy (and that Rob isn't feeling very well), we thought it a great excuse to take another look back at Liam's favourite of the Prequel trilogy and the one that, well, Rob just about put up with. It might not have been particularly well received by critics back in 2005, but Episode III continues to find new fans, and with the Prequel trilogy now held in higher regard, it seems as good a time...2024-02-121h 23
Hey You GuysTales From The Crypt - Demon KnightSend us a textJoin us this week as we revisit Demon Knight. A film remembered fondly by Rob (Of Course) and a film that has never crossed Liam's path aside from the poster. Did Rob still love this film? did Liam join the bandwagon like The Wraith and Buckaroo Bonzai or is this a NightBreed situation. Lets find out together shall we?2023-09-191h 07
Hey You GuysStargateSend us a textEpisode 126 of the Hey You Guys podcast is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1994's sci-fi classic, Stargate. What Liam assumed to be one of the more beloved movies of the early 90s, our views on Roland Emmerich's Independence Day precursor turned out be quite disparate. Links below. 2023-08-291h 11
Hey You GuysTrue LiesSend us a textEpisode 122 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and this week, Liam, Rob and special guest, Dave Old look back at that James Cameron movie nobody talks about anymore, 1994's, True Lies. Will Dave be able to cut through Liam's blind love for James Cameron and Rob's inexplicable hatred of great cinema? Can we definitively agree that True Lies is a better movie than Demolition Man? What of Jamie Lee Curtis' infamous striptease? Surely they all agree on that, right? Right? 2023-08-011h 26Hey You GuysTrue LiesEpisode 122 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and this week, Liam, Rob and special guest, Dave Old look back at that James Cameron movie nobody talks about anymore, 1994's, True Lies. Will Dave be able to cut through Liam's blind love for James Cameron and Rob's inexplicable hatred of great cinema? Can we definitively agree that True Lies is a better movie than Demolition Man? What of Jamie Lee Curtis' infamous striptease? Surely they all agree on that, right? Right? 2023-08-011h 21Hey You GuysBroken ArrowSend us a textEpisode 119 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at that other truly bonkers John Travolta performance in a John Woo movie. It might not be as fondly remembered as Face/Off, but 1996's Broken Arrow is arguably blessed with Travolta's biggest onscreen performance, and if nothing else, is undoubtedly home to one of Hans Zimmer's finest scores.What of the rest of the movie though? Well, that's more of a mixed bag. Listen in as Rob and Liam discuss the merits of...2023-07-101h 35Hey You GuysKickboxerSend us a textEpisode 104 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most beloved martial arts movies of the 80s, a movie that, alongside Bloodsport, put Jean-Claude Van Damme on the map and established his as heir apparent to the likes of Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Does it hold up though? Is Tong Po as great a villain as we remember? Is the dance scene still awesome more than 30 years later? Listen in to find out. 2023-03-271h 31Hey You GuysLabyrinthSend us a textEpisode 103 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most beloved, and downright strangest movies of the 80s. Jim Henson's, Labyrinth might be one of the most visually imaginative movies of the decade, but make no mistake, it's also one of the oddest. Does the movie still hold up? Is David Bowie's codpiece still mega distracting? Listen in and find out. 2023-03-211h 15
Hey You GuysCobraSend us a textEpisode 102 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of Sly's more bizarre movies of the 80s. Ultra violent without the blood, a cult without an aim and a pizza....with a pair of scissors? Yeah, Cobra has plenty of issues, but then it also has Sly looking better than ever and, despite its myriad of issues, it undoubtedly remains oddly watchable. Love it or hate it though, we can all agree that Cobra is anything but boring. 2023-03-151h 15
Hey You GuysWeird ScienceSend us a textEpisode 101 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of John Hughes' strangest movies. It put Kelly LeBrock on the map and is remembered fondly by many, but is it really any good? Was it ever any good? We take a look back at this 1985 cult classic to find out. 2023-03-071h 41
Hey You GuysTitanicSend us a textEpisode 100 of the Hey You guys podcast is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at what was at the time, the biggest movie of all time (well, not if adjusted for inflation, but hey ho). James Cameron's half romance, half disaster movie epic might be rather divisive (just ask Rob), but few films have ever brought a more eclectic demographic of moviegoers to the cinema before. Do the effects still hold up? Is Jack and Rose's romance as magical as ever? Is that Celine Dion song still annoying? Find out...2023-02-281h 29
Hey You GuysRobin Hood: Prince of ThievesSend us a textEpisode 99 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most beloved blockbusters of the 90s. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves might well be a decidedly flawed movie, but it remains one that is arguably all the better for its idiosyncrasies - whether it be Costner's LA accent, Christian Slater's hair or the fact that, despite being quite brilliant, Alan Rickman is acting in a completely different movie to everyone else on screen. Yes, Prince of Thieves is far from perfect, but there is a reason why Costner...2023-02-211h 24
Hey You GuysBack to the Future Part IISend us a textEpisode 98 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1989's, Back to the Future Part II. We all remember the Nike Mag trainers, the hoverboard, Jaws 19 and the self-drying jacket, but do we remember the clumsy plotting, the goofy sense of humour or the oppressively unpleasant second act? Well, needless to say, this beloved follow up to one of the greatest movies of all time might not be quite as good as many of us remember.....but then it does have those awesome trainers. 2023-02-141h 19
Hey You GuysDick TracySend us a textEpisode 97 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1990's, Dick Tracy. We thought this movie bombed both commercially and critically, that it came and went without leaving much of a mark. Well, we were very wrong. It might not have emulated the success of 1989's, Batman, a movie it was so keen to emulate, but this is a movie that still made plenty of money and managed to garner 7 Oscar nominations (walking away with 3). It might not have lived on long in the memory, but despite its faults, Dick...2023-02-071h 22
Hey You GuysStay TunedSend us a textThis week on the Hey You Guys Podcast, Liam and Rob look back at what many consider to be something of an underappreciated 90s classic. 1992's, Stay Tuned might not have set the box office alight, but an imaginative premise and an unsurprisingly fantastic turn by John Ritter helped to assure its cult status. Does it still hold up 30 years later? Click the links below to find out. 2023-01-311h 19Hey You GuysTombstoneSend us a textEpisode 95 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1993's, Tombstone. As much of a classic western as it is a revisionist one, troubles behind the scenes ensured that the final movie is a touch tonally inconsistent, but one of the best casts of 90s cinema ensures that it remains as immensely watchable as ever....and then there is Val Kilmer. 2023-01-241h 17
Hey You GuysGalaxy QuestSend us a textEpisode 94 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at a movie that was arguably released 10 years too early. 1999's, Galaxy Quest is one of the most beloved comedies of the 90s, but does it still hold up in this world of toxic fanbases and mainstream geek culture? 2023-01-171h 15
Hey You GuysThe RocketeerSend us a textEpisode 93 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most accurate comic book adaptations of all time. Joe Johnston's, The Rocketeer might have bombed back in 1991, but thanks to its great cast and fantastic Art Deco inspired visuals, it is a movie that has garnered a passionate cult following in the years since its initial release. Is it a movie worth revisiting (on Disney +) or should this flawed tale of derring-do be left in the past? 2023-01-101h 18
Hey You GuysTurbo KidSend us a textEpisode 92 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob are looking back at 2015's, love letter to the 80s, Turbo Kid. Can it celebrate cinema of the 80s without falling in to the trap of becoming too self-aware? Can it overcome its limited budget to deliver a suitable level of spectacle? Is the gnome stick the greatest melee weapons of all time? Oh, and is Liam a little bit in love with Apple? The answers can be found via the links below.....but yes, Liam is a little bit in love with Apple. 2022-12-291h 33
Hey You GuysNational Lampoon's Christmas VacationSend us a textEpisode 91 is here, and in the third part of our Christmas season of podcasts, Rob and Liam look back at National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Is it a Christmas classic? is it one of the best Christmas films ever made? Is Clark Griswald a typical suburban father who just wants the perfect Christmas or is he a psychopath waiting for that one moment to push him over the edge. Join us as one of us celebrates the brilliance of a John Hughes Christmas classic and one of us, well, feels differently....very differently . Bet y...2022-12-201h 22
Hey You GuysThe Muppet Christmas CarolSend us a textEpisode 90 is here, and in the second part of our Christmas season of podcasts, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most beloved Christmas movies of all time and arguably the finest cinematic adaptation of Charles Dickens', A Christmas Carol. I mean, everyone loves, The Muppet Christmas Carol, right?.....Right, Rob??2022-12-131h 18
Hey You GuysSanta's SlaySend us a textEpisode 89 is here, and in the first part of our Christmas season of podcasts, Liam and Rob will be looking back at 2005's, little watched, Santa's Slay. Starring Bill Goldberg as a demonic Santa and presented by Brett Ratner (admittedly less of a selling point in 2022), this violent take on the festive season is, well, it's a bit of a mixed bag. Still, despite the questionable quality, there is definitely some fun in seeing James Caan inexplicably show up in what is something of a bargain bin Christmas horror / comedy. 2022-12-061h 11
Hey You GuysThe Last Boy ScoutSend us a textEpisode 88 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at the occasionally brilliant, sometimes rubbish but always entertaining, The Last Boy Scout. With Tony Scott behind the camera, Shane Black on scriptwriting duties and Bruce Willis putting in a top-tier leading man performance, this neo-noir / buddy comedy hybrid really should have been a cinematic home run. Sadly, everyone on set hated each other and too many big personalities contrived to make this the deeply flawed classic that it ultimately is. 2022-11-301h 25
Hey You GuysTucker and Dale vs EvilSend us a textEpisode 87 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at one of the most criminally overlooked movies of modern times. With a winning cast, some great writing and a fantastic one-joke premise that somehow never gets boring, 2010's, Tucker and Dale vs Evil is one of the best movies you might not have heard of. 2022-11-221h 14
Hey You GuysThe Fifth ElementSend us a textEpisode 86 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at Luc Besson's 1997 sci-fi spectacular, The Fifth Element. Do the effects hold up? Is the cast as brilliant as you remember? Did Luke Perry really get an 'and' in the opening credits? Download and find out. 2022-11-151h 26
Hey You GuysStreets of FireSend us a textEpisode 85 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1984's, Streets of Fire, a somewhat obscure cult classic that is loved by those in in the know but, well, simply unknown to just about everyone else. Does this utterly unique genre mash-up live-up to Rob's childhood memories? What will Liam make of a movie that he hadn't even heard of until a few months ago? 2022-11-011h 18
Hey You GuysScream (1996)Send us a textThe third part of our Halloween season of podcasts is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1996's meta slasher classic, Scream. Is this the greatest entry in the most consistent horror series of all time? Does it hold up 26 years after its initial release? 2022-10-251h 31
Hey You GuysEvent HorizonSend us a textThe second part of our Halloween season or podcasts is here, and this week, Liam and Rob look back at 1997's, Event Horizon. A movie that flopped both critically and commercially upon release, Event Horizon has nonetheless gone on to garner something of a cult following. Is it still as gross as we remember? Do we need to see the fabled 2 hour cut? Is it Paul W.S. Andreson's best movie and.....well, is it a challenging wa*k? These are just some of the key questions we ruminate on this week. 2022-10-181h 22
Hey You GuysArmy of DarknessSend us a textIt's the first part of our Halloween trilogy of podcasts, and this week, Liam and Rob are looking back at Sam Raimi's finale to what has to be the strangest trilogy in movie history. From traditional horror, to horror/comedy to, well, whatever this is. Army of Darkness might not hit the heady heights of its predecessor (few movies do), but does it hold up in its own right? Does this fantasy horror mash-up provide a fitting final chapter to the original Evil Dead trilogy? 2022-10-121h 20
Hey You GuysT2: Judgement DaySend us a textJoin Rob, Liam and special guest Dan as we discuss the ins and outs of what makes T2 possible one of the greatest sequels ever made. 2022-09-281h 53
Hey You GuysRed DawnSend us a textJoin us on our recap of 1984’s Red Dawn. With special guest Dave, Rob and Dave are huge fans of this film. Liam has never seen it. Join us to see if it still holds up for two of us and if the other one actually enjoyed this film. 2022-09-201h 37
Hey You GuysBest of the BestSend us a textEpisode 79 is here, what makes this a sports movie? Is Rob right, the fact it’s a sanctioned sport makes this a sports movie? Does Eric Roberts have the best mullet of the 80s and will Liam ever follow Robs footsteps and watch the many straight to dvd sequels? He may have just been convinced in this weeks legacy section.2022-09-131h 16
Hey You GuysCat PeopleSend us a textEpisode 78 is here, and this week, Liam and Rob will be looking back at 1982's truly bizarre, but honestly, surprisingly brilliant, Cat People. This erotic horror / thriller might have one of the more absurd premises in mainstream movie history (no, seriously, read the synopsis), but it's also home to a great (and admirably committed) cast and genuinely brilliant main theme by David Bowie. Yeah, David Bowie recorded the main theme for this movie. 2022-09-061h 15
