Hold Up

In 1993 Marco Brambilla brought us a story of utopia, a story of dystopia, and a story of an imaginary wonderland where Taco Bell doesn’t send you to abdominal distress, Demolition Man.  Demolition Man is the tale of two men; John Spartan and the epically psychotic Simon Phoenix played by Sly Stallone and Wesley Snipes respectively. In 1996, Phoenix cuts his nose off to spite his face and creates a scenario to entrap Spartan for the death of 40 hostages while also imprisoning himself. They are both sentenced to a cryo-facility and 36 years later, Phoenix is thawed to assist with dispatching a terrorist threat. Spartan is then thawed to dispatch Phoenix when he goes on a crazy killing spree, which no one ever saw as a possibility... Demolition Man also stars the gorgeous Sandra Bullock, Benjamin Bratt, and even a little snippet of Jack Black if you look close enough. It was made for $57 million and brought in a massive box office of $159 million, but does it hold up?  Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent debate
