Listen "January 17, 1997 | Metro"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to Box Office Birthday, a calendar-accurate movie rewatch podcast! Join us as we relive the year 1997 in film by choosing a new theatrical release to watch each Friday.
Brandon and Megan watched Metro, starring Eddie Murphy as a cop with few distinguishing characteristics this week. They debate how many bait and switches one movie can reasonably have, theorize about what they wish would have happened (more montages!), and finally try a new Horoscope Corner segment to analyze the birth chart of the film with little to no knowledge of astrology.
Coming Attractions trailers for January 24:
In Love and War
Zeus and Roxanne
Fierce Creatures
Mother
Prefontaine
