Collision Course (1989)
In this episode of The 80s and 90s Overlooked, the guys review Collision Course. The 1989 buddy cop film starring Pat Morita and Jay Leno, as police officers who team up to track down a stolen prototype turbocharger. Yes, that's right. Pat Morita and Jay Leno did a buddy cop film in the 80s and this is it.
In this episode of Overlooked, Jamie and Milo are joined by Allison McClain Merrill to discuss the 1997 film Northern Lights. The movie stars Diane Keaton, who finds out that her estranged brother Frank has died in a small town, and that she has a nephew she didn’t know about. This film first aired on the Disney Channel and since then Disney has tried to distance itself from the movie. In this review, we try to find out why.
In this episode of Overlooked, the guys look at “Galaxis” (also know as Terminal Force). The sacred crystal, the source of all life, becomes the center of a cosmic struggle. Kyla (Richard Moll) seeks its power, but Ladera (Brigitte Nielsen) races against time to secure the identical crystal on Earth.
In this episode of “Overlooked” the guys take on the 1991 cinematic gem, “Cool as Ice,” featuring the ‘90s sensation, Vanilla Ice. Brace yourself for a wild ride as Vanilla Ice essentially plays himself, cruising on a motorcycle in hot pursuit of a girl. Some stuff happens along the way, but in the grand scheme of things, it’s safe to say that the plot might not be the film’s main attraction, if anything is.
In this episode of Overlooked, we’ll be reviewing the 1992 movie “Trespass”, directed by Walter Hill and starring Bill Paxton, Ice-T, William Sadler, and Ice Cube. The film follows two firefighters, Vince (Paxton) and Don (Sadler), who stumble upon a gang of ruthless criminals led by King James (Ice-T) and Savon (Ice Cube) while searching for some missing gold.
In this episode of Overlooked, the guys review “Virtuosity,” the 1995 film starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe. The movie follows Parker Barnes (Washington) a former police officer as he tracks down a virtual reality Simulation (Crowe) that escapes into the real world.
In this episode of The 80s and 90s Overlooked, the guys review Best Defense. The 1984 comedy starring Dudley Moore, Kate Capshaw, and Eddie Murphy. Before he made Howard The Duck, director Willard Huyck made this movie. Dudley Moore plays a lazy weapons engineer who is working on a part for a new tank. Eddie Murphy plays a guy who was paid a lot of money to crack jokes in the tank.
In this episode of The 80s and 90s Overlooked, the guys review the overlooked 1984 film Electric Dreams. The film follows a man and his computer who both fall in love with the same woman.

During the last episode of season 7 of “The 80s and 90s Uncensored” podcast, Jamie recommended people should see the movie “Indian Summer” without having seen the movie. So, Jamie and Milo sat down and watched the 1993 film written and directed by Mike Binder to see if it is worth watching this summer. Note: This video has a couple swear words in it.
