This week we are joined by our fellow nostalgia nerds across the pond, Mark and Sophie of the You Know What I Like...? podcast!  We watch and discuss their pick, the 90s fantasy film and Macaulay Culkin vehicle, The Pagemaster!  Mac plays a young boy who is afraid of pretty much everything.  When his dad (Ed Begley, Jr. sans smart car) sends him to pick up nails at the hardware store, he seeks shelter from an unexpected thunderstorm in a mysterious library.  When he slips and falls on the wet library floor he knocks himself unconscious and goes on an incredible adventure guided by three anthropomorphic library books that help him to face his fears and become the hero he is destined to be!  Sound cheesy???  Yeah, we thought so too...join us and find out if Macaulay Culkin charms us in this the same way he does in My Girl!  Oh, also Christopher Lloyd is in it and he's awesome.  Check it out!  And don't forget to RATE, REVIEW & SUBSCRIBE!
