292. The Parent Trap 1998 with special guest Donovan Marcotte

“Here's what's going on, buddy: the day we get married is the day I ship those brats off to Switzerland, get the picture? It's me, or them. Take your pick.” We watched “The Parent Trap” (1998) with our friend Donovan Marcotte, and we’re seeing double! This movie really is a touchstone for an entire generation out there, and we totally get it.  Lindsay Lohan… and Lindsay Lohan - stepping in for the icon that is Hayley Mills - are really making us believe they are two separate kids. Gone are the days of Vaseline down the middle of the camera lens and static shots. Lindsay is waltzing around her cabin, and the camera is following both of them. It’s some real Kermit the Frog riding a bicycle-level stuff. Trick shots aside, the rest of the cast really shines here - Lisa Ann Walter, Simon Kunz, and the Diva herself - Elaine Hendrix - are worth the price of admission. Break out your old clamshell VHS - it’s time for the Lohan-aissance!
