In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.

Ever wonder how TV show intros can evoke nostalgia and transport you back to simpler times? Join us on this episode as we celebrate our podcast's fifth anniversary with a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the evolution of our audio quality and sharing our love for those unforgettable TV show themes. From the chilling yet captivating intro of "Evil" to the majestic map animations of "Game of Thrones," we explore how these intros set the stage for some of the most iconic series. Plus, who could forget the intense vibes of the "Ed, Edd n Eddy" intro that still resonates with us today?
We also dive into the world of anime and superhero themes, where we discuss the mind-bending music from shows like "Dragon Ball Z" and "X-Men 97." Reliving the retro charm of the 60s "Batman" with Adam West and the grandeur of the "Justice League Unlimited" intro, we tap into the power of these soundtracks that defined an era. As we shift gears to beloved sitcoms, the catchy tunes from "Boy Meets World" and "Friends" transport us back to the zany 90s. Our discussion wouldn't be complete without a nod to classics like the 1994 "Spider-Man" with its Aerosmith theme.
In an intriguing twist, we explore thought-provoking concepts from the show "Severance," sparking conversations about identity and autonomy. This leads to sharing personal favorites like "Power Rangers" and "The Twilight Zone," complete with anecdotes of childhood antics inspired by wrestling. We wrap up with thoughts on "Squid Game" Season 2, where its fast-paced storytelling and shocking violence keep us hooked, all while navigating the tricky waters of spousal viewing etiquette. This episode is a rollercoaster of entertainment, nostalgia, and personal stories that promise to leave you eagerly anticipating what's next.
