091: Go, if it's too much for you to handle. | Mad Love (1995)
It's 1995, grunge is sort of dead but it's still working for movie themes. We finally review Mad Love starring Drew Barrymore and Chris O'Donnell. On this episode we talk the lure of teen romance in 90s films, the logistics of running away from home, and I pretty much drool over all the fashion and the AMAZING soundtrack. Our off topic rants this episode include: skydiving, ridic 90s theories, and comparisons to the movie Fear. --- Get BONUS episodes and support the show on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Charles @charleshaslam Music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

089: Try not to steal anything on your way out... | Bound (1996)
This one was a bit of a surprise. I give my first time impressions as does Charles seeing it for a second time. The Wachowski's debut feature film was a sleeper but a great crime and heist story. We get into the fashion, this portrayal of a lesbian relationship, and our favorite quotes.

Really and truly.Me and Jai get to the bottom of our favorite looks (there are so many), talk the house music era of the 90s, and talk about the allure of a 90s movie montage only this time with libraries.

Talk Hard. This is one of those films that's reached cult status. One of the most poignant and timeless stories of teen emotions, and open thoughts on a pirated radio station.

We're taking it back to the 80s! Even though we're usually in the 90s world we had to pay homage to Winona Ryder, Shannen Doherty, and Christian Slater in Heathers. This film is piece of fashion in film history as well as being one of the most quotable.

Yes, it's time for another rock doc. We take a journey across the pond to see what the music scene was in early 90s England. Enter in Britpop. This episode got somewhat chaotic in a good way.

This is one of the most classic films of the 90s. Let's face it we all think dinosaurs are cool. Maybe not so cool if we're thrown together with them in a theme park from hell situation. Charles gives us a science lesson with his extensive knowledge of the book and the differences from the animals in the film and what scientists know now. We get into the intense sound mixing that created each dino growl, and me and Mike ask all the questions like...how did this even happen? Were these selfish adults? Is Hammond a super villain?

This film was ALOT. I quickly remembered why I bought this DVD at a video store closing shop ages ago for less than $5. There were so many aspects of this film we forgot about since our recent rewatch.

Forward Flash 003: Meet Me in Montauk. | Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) [Patreon Preview]
for the full episode join the Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge]On our journey into the somewhat departure of 90s films (wait did that make sense) we talk the time travel, relationship history bending world of Michel Gondry and Charlie Kaufman. It's been a while since either one of us had seen Eternal Sunshine through a more mature eye, and it's still as great as it ever was. We veer a little off track hammering our distain for Wes Anderson kitsch and why this is better, real life couple fights, and realize Kirsten Dunst also has an incredible performance that we overlooked in the past.--- Get BONUS episodes and support the show on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Charles @charleshaslamIntro & Outro music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

061: Look, it's been swell, but the swelling's gone down. | Tank Girl (1995)
I'm so mad at myself for not knowing how awesome this film is until now. This one was Mikey's pick and I'm so glad he chose this one. I'm obsessed with the outfits throughout and not to mention the bitchin soundtrack put together by none other than Courtney Love. --- Get BONUS episodes and support the show on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Mikey @agentmikey007Intro & Outro music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

This is one of my favorite films so I was beyond excited to talk this one.

058: Why can't we pick our own colors? | Reservoir Dogs (1992)
It had been a while since either one of us had seen this film. Upon our recent re-watch we see the birth of Tarantino for what it is.

056: To live and fry in L.A. | Totally Fucked Up (1993)
Told in 15 celluloid fragments examining gay alienated youth of LA in the 90s. I was eager to hear Jai's first time thoughts as a newcomer to his early work and I give my review as a longtime Araki lover. We discuss how times have changed in both the good and bad ways. It's such an important film almost 30 years later with the language of the West Coast and the birth of a new genre.Link to the full film on YouTube: https://youtu.be/H-e6psXwP4Y--- Get BONUS episodes and support the show on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryIntro & Outro music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

055: 'Cause I'm pissed off and the whole world owes me. | Freeway (1996)
This is one of those random films that you may have never heard of but it's definitely worth a watch. Me and Mikey talk about how Reese was such a 90s bad girl and why we're dying to see her in another role like this soon.
