Each Host Brings A Film That Influenced Who They Are

This week, we’re changing up the format for our 75th Episode Quarter Quell Special! It’s our third Quell as Fighting in The War Room, and we’re getting all nostalgic again. Katey, Da7e, David and Patches have each brought a film that they wanted to be when they grew up. Katey always wanted to be Marty McFly from Back to the Future, Da7e wishes he were Penny Marshall’s Big, David sees himself in James L. Brooks’ Broadcast News and Patches, perhaps predictably, chooses earnest love-of-teaching-music movie Mr. Holland’s Opus.

Plus what we watched over break!

This week, Katey, Patches David and Da7e are in 2015, the Year of our Time Lord Doctor Emmett Brown and where the **** are our hoverboards and self-fitting jackets in Thriller-ready red? This year there’s an unusual amount of movies coming up designed to pull on the old nostalgia heart-strings (otherwise how do you justify a Point Break remake?). The gang tackles this while also applying fast-acting nostalgia to the things they watched at the tail end of 2014. Some of them deserve your consideration!
