Does The Rocketeer Hold Up?

The VCR Kids ·

2019/06/04

Website | Merch | Twitter This week we rewatched Disney’s The Rocketeer. A movie that holds a special place for those of us who watched it as youngsters, but generally has fallen off of the face of the earth. Why is that? We talk about our recollections of the movie, then we give it a review after rewatching it 28 years later. Let us know your opinions on Twitter or by emailing us at TheVCRKids@gmail.com and let us know your address for a free button! Next week we are watching James and the Giant

The Pagemaster

Website | March | Twitter Christopher Lloyd, Patrick Stewart, Whoopie Goldberg and more lend their voices to this half-live action, half-animated Macaulay Culkin vehicle from 1994.

Air Bud

The VCR Kids ·

2019/05/14

Website | Merch | Twitter Have you ever wanted to see a dog play basketball? Well, we never thought we wanted to either. But after watching Air Bud, I really do. We can't speak for all the sequels, but this one was not too bad. It also led us down an interesting rabbit hole of researching the story of the real Buddy... who stars in this movie!

Godzilla (1998)

The VCR Kids ·

2019/05/07

Website | Merch | Twitter Godzilla came out in 1998 and it is a RELIC of it's time. A terrible, poorly thought out, just all around dumb relic. Matthew Broderick plays a worm scientist, the French characters cannot stop talking about coffee, and a giant, radiated iguana has a REAL hunger for some fish. Listen to the latest episode of The VCR Kids to hear our memories, and our thoughts on rewatching. This week's promo is for Suck My Fic.

Shoulder Cats Radio | Get Our Merch | Follow us on Twitter This summer is the season for Live-Action Remakes of Disney Classics. We decided we would get the party started with one of the first: 101 Dalmatians. If you remember anything from this movie, it was probably Glenn Close’s turn at Cruella. It was definitely interesting to revisit. If you have fond memories of this movie, join the conversation with us on Twitter! If you have a friend you think would like The VCR Kids, show them how to

The Mask

http://tee.pub/lic/jhXiJmyCfJE SMOKIN’! We watched The Mask and talk all about the 1994 film that BROKE popular culture. Why do we remember the Saturday morning cartoon more than the movie who spawned it? Maybe a rewatch will answer those questions.

To bring in our second 50 movies, we’re going back to where it all began! You may or may not have seen this sequel to the classic kids movie, but Jay definitely did! Erin, predictably, is not a fan.
