Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Transformers (1986)

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Clash of the Titans

Of all of the subjects I studied as a young lad, Greek Mythology was the one I hated most. In fact, I'm pretty sure I failed every quiz, test, report ever turned in on the subject. I mean, I have trouble with "Xanadu." To me, Aphrodite is...

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: St. Elmo's Fire

This week I viewed another 80’s movie with the same sound track and cast as almost every other movie I’ve reviewed; “St. Elmo’s Fire.” There’s Andrew McCarthy, Emilio Estivez, Judd Nelson, and Rob Lowe. These are all actors who were huge then and who...

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Pretty in Pink

Sometimes I tend to procrastinate. At 25 I'm fine with admitting that. Oh, I also bite my nails. That's besides the point. I always wait until Tuesday night before I watch each week's selection for "Fletcher Missed that Movie Too."...

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Roadhouse

So far my review of classic 80's films has been dominated by movies featuring Keifer Sutherland. All of those movies have been awesome. The second most watched actor is now Patrick Swayze. Since I didn't hate "Red Dawn," I thought perhaps...

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Young Guns

After suffering through the dreadful "Iron Eagle" last week, everyone decided I should see a movie that might actually be enjoyable. This week I tackled the 1988 western "Young Guns." It's always a movie that I wanted to see but...

Fletcher Missed That Movie Too: Iron Eagle

This week I watched the movie some call "The Poor Man's Top Gun," Iron Eagle. First of all, why is it the poor man's top gun? Is it because the star of the film is Louis Gossett, Jr? Charlie, I'm looking in your direction. Iron Eagle...

This week I got caught up on a movie that I think I actually saw sometime in the early to mid 1990's. I say "think" because it's possible that I only saw parts of it when I was watching HBO unattended has a younger lad. Mom and Dad didn't...
