Flopcast 479: Movies of 1986 – My Eyeball Tutor

Flopcast 479 Short Circuit

Flopcast episode 479! With the long-delayed release of Black Widow this week, many humans finally returned to actual movie theaters, where the $14 boxes of Raisinets had been waiting patiently since last year. Meanwhile Kevin and Kornflake are flopping back to 35 years ago, when the only Marvel movie in theaters was… Howard the Duck. We run through a big crazy list of movies from 1986, including some all-time favorites (Stand by MeKarate Kid Part II), science fiction classics (AliensStar Trek IV), fantasy classics (Big Trouble in Little ChinaLabyrinth), and random oddities (Maximum OverdriveMy Chauffeur). The Brat Pack was out of control, Molly was pretty in pink, Kevin Bacon was a bike messenger, Jeff Goldblum was a fly, Johnny 5 was alive, Rodney went back to school, Ferris did not, Peggy Sue got married, and Audrey II just wanted to be fed. Yikes. In 1986, the only time we left the theater was when the government forced us to participate in Hands Across America. Also this week: Kornflake brings you… the Weird Eyeball Game. Talk to your favorite optician before playing.
