    i watched this everyone i asleep over at a friends place. fun movie with another great performance from Devin Ratray (Buzz in Home Alone, Tinfoil Kevin in The Tick, a slew of great movie spots like Blue Ruin)

    I think about this movie a lot.

      I remember watching and loving it as a kid. I haven't watched it in decades though. I'm tempted to watch it again to see if it holds up, but also kinda scared it doesn't and ruining my perception of it. I had that happen with Garbage Pail Kids and regretted rewatching it.

        bahahaha watching GPK is a bold move. Honestly, I wouldn't bother watching it. It was perfect then and there's no way Howie holds up. Jem, on the other hand, does hold up and its amazing in all ways.

          Jem and The Holograms was a tad before my time, and I've actually never watched it, but due to its importance in the LGBT+ community I have still absorbed a decent portion of it via cultural osmosis. Good to know it still holds up though. One of these days I will have to give it a watch!

            check the pilot and forget there is anything after it. Its all recycled cells etc.. and each episode is pretty much the same. But this has everything -- Rio, the orphanage, the record label, the Misfits and their cool bikes, the battle of the bands (which is also insane), action, SYNERGY... and more!

            The music is the best, too. Its all hook.
