Cooler Than Homework #009 – Johnny Tsunami & Runaways

Previously: The coolest rebellious house on the block.

Marines: We are right in the middle of my DCOM prime. My intros for this run of movies could literally be all the same: I loved this as a child, and I watched the crap out of it while it was in heavy rotation. Luckily for me, here is yet another DCOM that holds up surprisingly well. It also has a good parental story in the background and by that I mean “watching DCOMs as an adult means paying extra attention to what the parents are doing.”

This week, our group discussion is all about other media with runaway kids– a fiction staple.

Marines (all posts)

I'm a 30-something south Floridan who loves the beach but cannot swim. Such is my life, full of small contradictions and little trivialities. My main life goals are never to take life too seriously, but to do everything I attempt seriously well. After that, my life goals devolve into things like not wearing pants and eating all of the Zebra Cakes in the world. THE WORLD.

Nicole is the co-captain of Snark Squad and these days she spends most of her time editing podcasts. She spends too much time on Twitter and very occasionally vlogs and blogs. In her day job she's a producer, editor, director, and sometimes host of educational YouTube channels. She loves travel, maps, panda gifs, and semicolons. Writing biographies stresses her out; she crowd sourced this one years ago and has been using a version of it ever since. She would like to thank Twitter for their help.
