Episode 30: 1985 - Part 2

Since we had so much to say, this week we're presenting the second part of 1985! 

But first, here is a reminder of this years list of Oscar nominees:

• Out of Africa
• The Color Purple
• Kiss of the Spider Woman
• Prizzi's Honor
• Witness

As if that wasn't enough, we added a few other categories to the Oscar list like The Best Grandma Moment, The Independent Darling, and Who Did It Best!

Was Rocky IV the sequel of the year? Is Dario Argento's Demons the kind of horror movie that sticks with you? We also discuss a couple of the brat pack movies, The Breakfast Club, and St. Elmo's Fire, and how they catapulted the careers of the brat packers. But which one was better? Don't worry, we tell you. We also discuss some of the best action movies and their muscular heroes, of not just 1985, but of the whole decade of the 80s! Who had the best one-liners; Schwarzenegger? Stallone? Norris? And which of their movie franchises came up on top? All this and more as we close on the stellar movie year of 1985.
