No More Late Fees

We think our teenage brains totally missed that Mark Wahlberg as David McCall was the ultimate walking red flag and not a heartthrob we should be thirsting over.

This week on No More Late Fees, Jackie and Danielle revisit Fear (1996), the psychological thriller starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg. Joining them is Naomi Carmack, host of Dope Nostalgia, to find out if this twisted teen romance still holds up.

From that unforgettable roller coaster scene set to "Wild Horses" to David's increasingly disturbing behavior, the ladies are questioning everything they overlooked in the '90s. They dive into Nicole's questionable family dynamics, the warning signs of an abusive relationship, and the movie's portrayal of teenage sexuality. Plus, they're discussing Leonardo DiCaprio's connection to Mark Wahlberg's casting, Reese Witherspoon's uncomfortable on-set experience, Alyssa Milano's transition from child star, and why Nicole's supposedly secure family home wasn't nearly secure enough. Expect strong opinions, and a few uncomfortable realizations about this 90s-era favorite.

Jackie and Danielle both owned Fear on VHS, but will their nostalgia survive this rewatch? Find out whether their original opinions hold up when they reveal their final Ratings Rewind verdicts. If you love '90s movies, psychological thrillers, and revisiting your questionable teenage crushes, this movie review is for you.

One hit song, four small-town musicians, and a whole lot of 1960s nostalgia! Does That Thing You Do! (1996) still rock 30 years later? Jackie and Danielle are revisiting Tom Hanks' directorial debut, starring Tom Everett Scott, Liv Tyler, Steve Zahn, and Ethan Embry. Joining them for his seventh appearance is longtime friend Nick, who's back to help decide whether this beloved '90s musical comedy still deserves a spot in our VHS collections.

From The Wonders' overnight success to the questionable decisions that nearly derail their fame, the trio digs into the music, memorable performances, and surprising character dynamics. Is Jimmy really the villain, or is the record industry the bigger problem? Was Mr. White helping the band or exploiting them? And why does Steve Zahn steal practically every scene? Plus, they're talking about Tom Hanks' casting decisions, the actors learning their instruments, Guy and Faye's romance, the mysteriously nameless bass player, and one very confusing Spartacus reference.

With plenty of laughs, behind-the-scenes trivia, and a fresh perspective on this 1996 favorite, Jackie, Danielle, and Nick put their nostalgia to the test. Will That Thing You Do! earn a coveted "Would Buy It Again" in Ratings Rewind, or has time changed their tune?
