Our resident fashion expert weighs in on the movie fashions that made 1996 great.

Watchin' Trailerz with Doug (March 16)

Here's the second trailer for Men in Black III. Here's the third trailer for American Reunion. And here is the 17TH(!) trailer for The Avengers. Remember when films only had one preview? Me neither. And as much as I want to/could easily rip on these movies, I'm totally down to watch all three of them. See you at the picture show!

F This Movie! - Swingers

Patrick and Doug are the guys behind the guys behind the guys behind the guys.

F These Hockey Movies

Yes, the Chicago Blackhawks are the 2010 Stanley Cup Champions. We can't F hockey, because it remains a frozen mystery. But we can F these movies with hockey in them.

F Slapshot. F Miracle. Those are too obvious. These are real hockey movies.

1. Sudden Death (1995) - Jean-Claude Van Damme stars a security guard in Die Hard-in-a-hockey rink, directed by Chicago's own Peter Hyams (which explains why one of teams featured in the film is the Blackhawks). So stupid. Van Damme just wants his kids back.

2. Clerks (1994) - Rooftop hockey. The scene features the only special effect in Clerks, in which producer Scott Mosier yells at Scott Mosier.

3. D2: The Mighty Ducks - There's no reason to choose this over the original Mighty Ducks except that the title makes no fucking sense. Remember that movie T2: The Terminator or P2: There Was No Movie Called P (Because What the Fuck is P2?)

4. Swingers (1996) - I'm gonna make Wayne Gretzky's head bleed for Superfan number 99 over here.

5. Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982) - Because hockey mask.
