'Big' Then and Now
Released in 1988 and starring future megastar Tom Hanks, 'Big' told the story of a boy who makes a wish to be big at a magic fortune-teller machine. When he wakes up the next morning, he finds that he has become an adult literally overnight, and that being big isn't all it's cracked up to be. 25 years later, we revisit the cast of this treasured classic and see what they're up to now.

Released in 1994, 'Reality Bites' follows a quartet of Generation X friends as they struggle through the ups and downs of love, work and life in their 20s. At the heart of the film is the love triangle between Winona Ryder's Lelaina and two men who represent opposing ideals, and the choice between following your dreams or following your paycheck. Almost 20 years later, we take a look back at the c

Robin Williams in drag equals comedy gold. That could've been the elevator pitch for 'Mrs. Doubtfire,' in which Williams' character dresses up like a matronly British nanny so he can see his kids, whom he had lost in a custody battle.

John Candy was John Hughes' favorite actor and appeared in eight of the late writer/director's films, although often in smaller roles. But Candy was the undisputed star of the Hughes' comedy 'Uncle Buck,' which was a box office hit in 1989.

Based on the classic 'SNL' sketch and released in 1993, 'Coneheads' starred Dan Aykroyd as the patriarch of an alien family, distinguished by their large, conical (and comical) heads. 20 years later, we look back at the cast of this classic comedy -- and one of the better 'SNL' films, featuring an all-star line-up of former members of the show -- and see what they're up to now.

In the 1988 sequel to 'Pee-wee's Big Adventure,' Paul Reubens reprises the role of Pee-wee Herman in a completely new context. This time around, Pee-wee is a farmer who takes up with circus folk when a big storm lands them in his backyard. Instead of his trusty bike, Pee-wee now pals around with a talking pig. (It's a little strange. The '80s, folks!) 25 years later, we take a look back at this fi

Released way back in 1988, John Landis' 'Coming to America' became an instant comedy classic. Starring Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall in two of their most iconic roles, the movie follows an African prince who disowns his royalty in search of a down-to-earth American wife to avoid the marriage his parents have arranged. Now, 25 years later, we take a look back at the cast and see what they're up to

Based on the classic comic-book character, the 1996 film 'The Phantom' starred Billy Zane as a seemingly immortal superhero who used his powers to fight crime. Sounds a lot like most of the superheroes we love these days, but comic-book movies of the '90s were definitely a little (okay, a lot) sillier. Seventeen years later, we take a look back at the cast of this campy superhero flick and see wha

Roland Emmerich's 2000 film 'The Patriot' starred Mel Gibson as a South Carolina man swept up in the American Revolutionary War in order to protect his family. The hit film also starred the late Heath Ledger in his second high-profile role. With the Fourth of July in mind, we thought it'd be fun to look back at the cast of this film 13 years ago, and see where they're at now.

Making a movie based on an amusement park ride doesn't necessarily seem like a recipe for success. But you can't argue with the results of the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise, which was spun off from the Disney parks ride of the same name. In addition to being one of the most successful franchises in movie history, the films helped turn Johnny Depp from a quirky character actor into one of th

Way back before Marvel dominated the box office with superhero films like 'Iron Man' and 'The Avengers,' they made their big-screen debut with a crazy little film based on one of their quirkier comic book heroes.

These days, awesome comic book movies are everywhere, but in the '90s, the genre was very different. In 1996, 'Barb Wire' was released, starring 'Baywatch' icon Pamela Anderson and described as a "post-apocalyptic remake of 'Casablanca' set in a strip club." We think it's high time to take a look back at Anderson and the cast of this very cheesy flick and see what they're up to these day

In 2004, a little indie film by the name of Napoleon Dynamite introduced us to a small town kid and his quirky friends, and gave us memorable lines that people still quote all these years later. The film's stars were either relative unknowns or established character actors, inspiring us to take a look back at where they were nine years ago, and where they are now. Jon Hed...
