The Shelley Longcast: Losin’ It
Added 2021-04-28 23:40:29 +0000 UTCA heads up: This week's regular episode will be posting tomorrow, but in the meantime we give you Drew and Glen going on several tangents.
Have you always wanted to see Shelley Long have sex with Tom Cruise? Then have we got the movie for you. This 1983 Sleeper features Long before Cheers became a hit and Cruise before Risky Business made him a star. And while it is technically an 80s sex comedy, it's also a period piece where characters get to reflect on themselves and their lives — directed by L.A. Confidential helmer Curtis Hanson, less. We won't lie: it's not great, but it is kinda fascinating as a pop culture curiosity.
If you want to watch Drew's supercut of the Bollywood remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, you can do that here. And see baby Jane Krakowski in the original National Lampoon’s Vacation here.

You definitely can, except in versions issued after that late 90s, as once screen grabs started going around the internet Mr Cruise's people had it excised - at least that was what the late 90s message boards alleged

2021-04-30 05:14:15 +0000 UTCThis is the third time Elm Street has popped up on my feed today. I’m going to have to watch my back in my dreams tonight! Also, I’m 100% here for Bollywood anything, so thank you.

2021-04-30 03:01:28 +0000 UTCI didn't know that. I thought 18 was the standard throughout the country. Weird.

2021-04-29 19:54:56 +0000 UTCI was confused as to why you were making such a big deal about the age of consent in Massachusetts, since it's 16 years old in over half of all US states. Then I looked up a map and realized most of those states aren't on the West Coast, so maybe y'all haven't traveled to many of them. For future reference: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States
