Welcome to season 10 of Myopia: Defend Your Childhood! Each week we watch the movies from the 80s and 90s we grew up watching to address the lies that or memories and Blockbuster video told us. Do they hold up?

    We're Back

    We're Back

    This Week on Myopia Movies: We Dive into the Prehistoric Puzzler, "We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story"
    Join us as we unearth the cinematic fossil that is "We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story," where the idea of dinosaurs roaming modern New York City is somehow not the most unbelievable part. This week, we're peeling back the layers of this animated onion, revealing that beneath the surface, it's just more onion. Witness the mind-bending reality where dinosaurs wear clothes, eat hot dogs, and avoid existential dread by singing. Bring your paleontology hats and a healthy dose of disbelief, because we're about to find out how a Rex with tiny arms manages more emotional depth than some of our guest stars.
    How will We're Back! hold up?

    Panel: Keiko and Kellie
    Directored by Phil Nibbelink, Simon Wells, Dick ZondagStarring: John Goodman, Charles Fleischer, Blaze Berdahl, Rhea Perlman, Jay Leno, Felicity Kendal, Walter Cronkite, Julia Child, Kenneth Mars, Yeardley Smith, Martin Short

Season 5 was Awesome!

Unlike most review shows, this is funny at times, but is also an honest review of the films. Also, the crux of the film is that people have to defend movies they have not seen in years; great flashbacks to my youth. A lot of fun!

Pod Addict T ,

Solid Show

Listening through, there are still some audio issues, but they have tightened up the show in the last couple seasons. Good mix of different genres, overall solid show.
