As we file this cast under 'H' for toy we celebrate the '80s classic that is Val Kilmer's stardom vehicle - Real Genius. I do wish the world worked this way and that I was as smart as Lazlo. However, the reality is not so much, so we must live through the gang and take it as it comes!Kayla's Cheese rating = 5Kidnap Countdown = 0 '80s Style Kidnappings!

The triumphant return of '80s Cheese Movie Review is upon us with the release of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure! La enjoyed this one and can you believe it she thought it held up well.

It's a wild ride this week for the 1989 classic 'Say Anything' with La and all three of her backup dancers. Yep, that's right guys we've got John Cusak and Uncle Beef. La is in overload mode.

Innerspace

Behold for we have made a thing! That thing is a cast and that cast is somewhat about the 1987 smash hit Innerspace! As it turns out it doesn't age as great as Uncle Beef remembered. Join us as La wonders at how malls used to look and we get a lesson in Gen Z speak. Also, be forewarned, Beef being here means there is a lot of cussing involved - plus we learn Beef has much hate for Freddie Mercury.

Little Shop of Horrors

Finally, we come to a movie Sean wasn't looking forward to. In fact, he hates this movie and always has. Even the director's cut where Audrey II takes over the world didn't save the 1986 entry 'Little Shop of Horrors' for him. La was also unimpressed but she's 13 and isn't impressed with most things. Jake tried to salvage some of the presentation for us but little could be done to sway La in the end.

Your '80s movie crew takes on 1988's live-action/animated classic 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' this week on the show. We even stay on topic for a few minutes until as usually happens we tend to drift a smidgeon. In any event, it was awesome and La actually liked this one!

Big Trouble in Little China

Its 1986 and there is Big Trouble in Little China, also Raiden was there for some reason. Look I'm not gonna lie. Uncle Beef stopped by for this cast and every time La and Uncle Beef are together on a mic bad things happen. I'm not sure why but the two of them seem to be of the same mind. Anyway let me apologize in advance they both cuss up a storm. We couldn't stop them.
