Movie of the Year: 1984
This Is Spinal Tap
Can This Is Spinal Tap rock its way to the title of our 1984 Movie of the Year?
This Is Spinal Tap put rock music on the map. Before this movie came out, no one was really sure what to make of this new music genre. Enter Spinal Tap. With hubris, unparalleled talent, and a penchant for dramatically losing drummers, Spinal Tap changed music, and the movie about them, This Is Spinal Tap, put the new band and their wholly original sound into the national conversation.
This movie is considered a classic of both rock and comedy, but does it actually rock? Is it actually funny? We've been known to take down classics before, so this might be another time where we speak truth to power.
Coming up this season we have some of the most fun movies we've covered and some of the most amazing guests we've ever hosted. Stay tuned, everyone, because things are just getting started.
