One of the last movies released in the '80s, it's the apogee of '80s action movies, and the second installment of our Other Buddies month: Tango & Cash! Starring Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell, with no less than four directors, and a writer that refused to put his name on the movie, it's a feature that shouldn't work, but does... so, so well.

There can be only one! Unless it's Highlander, then there's a bunch of movies, TV shows, and animated media, and... they're all terrible. It's the second week of our Haterade month and Adam really, really hates Highlander. Listen to see if he's totally wrong or can sway you away from liking an incredibly stupid movie.

They drew first blood! Despite the ridiculousness that the Rambo franchise became, First Blood is one of the best movies of the '80s and is possibly Sylvester Stallone's finest acting of his career. It's First Blood, directed by Ted Kotcheff, starring Sylvester Stallone, Brian Dennehy, and Richard Crenna.
