Description

Blast from the Past, huh? Isn’t this whole podcast a blast from the past? How’s this for a blast from the past? The year is 1999. Brendan Fraser is a movie star. In fact, he’s high profile enough that two Academy Award winners (Christopher Walken and Sissy Spacek) play his parents. How’s that for a Blast from the Past? Alicia Silverstone is also a movie star. A studio has enough faith in her to ground a high-concept movie about a family who spends 35 years in a bunker and emerges on a bar-turned-cult-hangout. How’s that for a Blast from the Past? The movie features the following prominent plot points: baseball cards, swing dancing, an adult video store. How’s that for a Blast from the Past? Everclear, Dishwalla and the Squirrel Nut Zippers are showcased on the soundtrack! How’s that for a Blast from the Past? Brendan Fraser and Alicia Silverstone’s characters are named Adam and Eve. How’s THAT for a blast from the past? Join Phil, Kenny and Netflix social media coordinator (and Brendan Fraser stan) Erin La Rosa on this week’s Blast from the Past podcast.

In a lot of ways 1999 was the year that changed movies. From “The Matrix” and “The Blair Witch Project” to “American Beauty” and “The Sixth Sense”, the last year of the millennium was transformative for Hollywood. Through "Podcast Like It's 1999" writers Phillip Iscove (co-creator of FOX's Sleepy Hollow) and Kenny Neibart (Entourage, Hindsight) examine this apex of Cinema, before television took over, before Reality TV, before TMZ and Twitter but also after the internet, after Clinton, after OJ, after Howard Stern and Jerry Springer. This podcast will cover the over 250 exciting, funny and influential movies produced that year. Get excited to do a deep dive into all things 1999.
