Whatchoo talkin' bout Gary | Surely the funniest movie of all time | Back to the Future Day | Freddy Krueger scared himself

Loading player...
Don't you forget about The Breakfast Club sequel. We didn't but the internet tried to trick us.

It's doccie time with the life story of Gary Coleman and the death stories of 80s hair band members.

The resurrection theme continues in Dori's movie of the week while Paulo's movie is so silly it's almost art.

As we celebrate #BTTFDAY24 we examine the technology that came true and the ones that never materialised. We're looking at you, hoverboards.

Finally Freddy Krueger even scared the crap out of himself and made an entire generation distrustful of anyone in a green and red striped jersey.
