BMFcast275 – Gentlemen’s Asshattery
Ski School (1990) is our latest film, coincidentally just released on Blu-ray this week! A group of asstagonists kind of battle some jock jerks at a ski school. Plus, boobs! And also, a heart? It’s weird.
In the second half there’s more Mad Max: Fury Road talk, because it deserves it. Then Chuck goes on a 1970s marathon with The Omega Man, Jaws 2, Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, All the President’s Men, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Rollerball and Lifeguard (featuring a glorious Sam Elliott mustache). BJ checks out the heist film The Art of the Steal, and Harlo checks in with Rodney Dangerfield by watching a double feature of Easy Money and Back to School. Enjoy!

BMFcast274 – Juicy Cocaine
Cartel (1990) is our return to the works of John Stewart, director of Action USA, a BMFcast classic. Can an unhinged Don Stroud and plenty of exploding vehicles bring the same joy?
Second half it’s supersized and it’s all Mad Max: Fury Road. Should you skip the 3D and see it in 2D? (YES.) Can 98% on RottenTomatoes actually hurt a movie? How much hyperbole is too much hyperbole? How awesome is Imperator Furiosa? All these questions and more will be answered. Enjoy!

BMFcast273 – SARATOGA, BLADE!
Street Hunter (1990) marks Steve James’ 8th BMFcast movie, and his first as the main star (though the poster would make you think otherwise.) He’s a bounty hunter named Logan Blade, hunting down Reb Brown and John Leguizamo.
Second half BJ checks out Avengers: Age of Ultron, Harlo & Chuck discuss Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck, and we catch up on a metric ton of listener correspondence. Enjoy!

BMFcast272 – Koala-ity Puppet
The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990) continues Car May Diem! The Diceman introduces us to the true meaning of pain in this “comedy” where he’s portraying the biggest a-hole on the planet. It’s not a question of whether this is getting bags, it’s how many bags we’re giving it.
Second half BJ introduces some friends to BMFcast classics The Room and Megaforce while the rest of us fill up time talking about some superhero movie that came out last week called Avengers: Age of Ultron. Enjoy!

BMFcast271 – Fearleader
Alienator (1990) begins Fred Olen May! An evil prisoner guy lands on earth and an Alien Terminator lady-thing tracks him down. An Alienator, if you will. Oh yeah, and Jan Michael Vincent might be drunk.
Second half Harlo talks about Jupiter Ascending and The Internship, Maki revisits Marvel Phase Two, Chuck tries to figure out if we’ve ever done an episode on Johnny Dangerously (spoiler: no) and we take some fun voicemails and e-mails. Enjoy!
