    What we’re Enjoying

    Jay wrapped up his viewing of the Netflix comic book adaptation of Locke and Key. It was a fun series but kind of fell a little flat during the last season. Shua was enraptured by the latest Marvel release Black Panther - Wakanda Forever. A great character piece that showed how the MCU will move on from Chadwick Boseman and King T’Challa. 

     

    Sci-Fi Saturdays/MCU Location Scout

    Sci-Fi Saturdays continues its look at some classic 90s sci-fi. After revisiting Face-Off, we follow up with the 1997 Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones comedy Men in Black. And then go back to watch the adaptation of a Carl Sagan book, 1997’s Jodie Foster film Contact. And make sure to interact with new Wakanda Forever locations on MCU Location Scout.

     

    Enjoy Giving T Hanks!

    This week we try to narrow down a large body of quality work from America’s Dad, Tom Hanks. The actor, who started his career out of college, having been unable to even get a role in college plays, rocketed to stardom. 

     

    He started on TV with some small parts and partnering up with Peter Scolari on Bosom Buddies. But when Splash gained so much success, producers and directors started using him more in bigger roles. He had a series of successful comedies in the 80’s like Bachelor Party (1984), The Money Pit (1986), Dragnet (1987), and Turner and Hooch (1989). 

     

    Big really shot Hanks’s popularity in 1988, and he started dipping his toe in some romance roles like Joe versus the Volcano (1990), Sleepless in Seattle (1993), and You’ve Got Mail (1998). And his role as Woody in Toy Story (1995) continues to evolve and become popular and has even inspired a new Disney park area. 

     

    But it was his role in the drama Philadelphia (1993) that won him his first Oscar, only to be followed up the following year with Forrest Gump (1994) with another Oscar. Plus other incredible performances in Apollo 13 (1995), Saving Private Ryan (1998), and The Green Mile (1999)

     

    He continues to create well-liked films with humor, drama, and emotion into the 21st century with memorable roles in movies like Cast Away (2000), Saving Mr. Banks (2013), and Elvis (2022)

    What we’re Enjoying

    Jay was listening to this podcast called Enjoy Stuff, where a guy named Shua was talking about the Magic Candle Company and their theme park inspired candle scents. He tried the sampler pack that includes Space Coaster, Haunted, Pirate Life, and Extraterrestrial. They’re a unique and pleasant candle that both guys recommend. Shua checked out a very well done stop motion animation movie on Netflix called Wendell and Wild by Jordan Peele and Henry Selick. A spooky and dark (not to mention fun) movie that features demons, zombies, and redemption. Plus, one of the crew members was friend of the show Hunter Wahl who was one of the talented puppet painters on the crew. Check it out on Netflix. 

     

    Sci-Fi Saturdays/MCU Location Scout

    Sci-Fi Saturdays is back with a look at a fun romp in space with Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, Gary Oldman, and Chris Tucker. Written and directed by Luc Besson, it has gained a large following over the years with it’s beautiful design and fun action story. Check it out on RetroZap.com

     

    Enjoy Music!

    Weird Al Yankovic got his start at an early age when his mom bought him an accordion from a door-to-door salesman. With that and his passion for the Dr. Demento show, his creativity began to thrive with parodies of other songs. 

     

    His crazy, unique style began to grow in popularity with repeated playings of his early songs like My Bologna and I Love Rocky Road on Dr. Demento, and soon he had a record deal. That led to several other albums, videos, cameos in movies, and even a movie of his own. 

     

    He is only one of five artists that have had a Top 40 single in each of the last four decades. Lin-Manuel Miranda has said he was an influence on writing Hamilton. His crazy, fun work has truly made a unique difference in our culture. 

     

    The new biopic called Weird: The Al Yankovic story is out now, starring Daniel Radcliffe as Weird Al. A wild (and totally “accurate”) account of Al’s life and rise to fame. Featuring Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna and Rainn Wilson as Dr. Demento, it’s the perfect example of Al’s work. 

    Do you like Weird Al? What are some of your favorite songs? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Dare to Be Stupid” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]

    What we’re Enjoying

    After hearing about Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd reuniting at NYCC, he decided to download the most recent self-narrated book by Fox called, “​​No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality”. It is really an eye-opening and inspirational story. Jay discovered that his new house may hold some secrets in the form of a deep hole that may or may not be a Hellmouth. If we notice any demons emerging from below, we’ll let you know. 

     

    Sci-Fi Saturdays/MCU Location Scout

    Sci-Fi Saturdays ended its crossover with 31 Days of Horror by looking at the creepy Sci-Fi thriller Event Horizon. It returns to traditional form with Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman in The Fifth Element. Book your multipass now!

     

    Enjoy Life!

    Spooky tales and legends get passed down from generation to generation. Come along with us and hear about some that have taken place where we live throughout our life. 

     

    We start by sharing some of the ones we loved as kids, such as the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Mothman, and Chessie, the Chesapeake Bay monster. These get us excited to go get spooked and learn some history at the same time. 

     

    Shua shares some legendary Colorado tales such as the Ghosts of Cheesman park, Riverdale Road, and of course the Shining inspired ghosts of The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park. 

     

    He also shares his favorite tale of the supposed cannibal Alferd Packer, who ate the men he was supposed to be leading over a pass in the winter. Something Shua always discourages his tour guides to do. 

     

    Jay tells about the chilling tale of St Mary’s College in Ellicott, Maryland and the location of the Blair Witch Project, which has eerie tales of its own. 

     

    The Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California is the setting of many a ghost tale and mysteries of the widow who lived there. Plus, Jay shares a very creepy story of his youth when he almost became a character in another ominous happening.

This music has inspired many composers, including John Williams when he wrote the soundtrack to Star Wars.

    Grab your wooden stakes and garlic because this week we are looking at Vampires!

    What we’re Enjoying

    Shua is really digging the vibe of the new Star Wars series on Disney+, Andor. It’s a bit more gritty than we are used to, but Diego Luna is fantastic as Cassian, and the real world settings feel very ‘original trilogy’. In between his busy moving schedule, Jay has been reading some retro Dr. Strange comics from the mid 80s. It’s always fun to revisit the origins of some of the great stuff we are getting today. 

     

    Sci-Fi Saturdays/MCU Location Scout

    31 Days of Horror is finally here! So far he has given us Night of the Creeps, The Final Girls, and tonight’s film Trick r Treat. Check back in to RetroZap every day this month to see what creepy movie Jay will give us next. And don’t forget his articles on MCULocationScout.com for some great, interactive maps of filming locations. 

     

    Enjoy The Full Moon!

    As long as humans have been looking up to the sky, we have been fascinated by the moon. And once a month, that mysterious jewel in the sky appears big and bright and full, giving us even more to wonder about. 

     

    Lycanthropy is the transformation of a person into a wolf and stories of this curse date all the way back to the Epic of Gilgamesh. Werewolves even show up in Greek mythology in the Legend of Lycaon. 

     

    Since these stories have endured, it’s no surprise that they showed up in movies very early. The first movie featuring a lycanthrope was The Werewolf from 1913. Unfortunately, it was lost to fire and can never be seen again. But a few years later, a silent western called Wolf Blood (1925) appeared and can still be viewed. 

     

    The 1935 film Wolf Blood starring Henry Hull gave us some of the tropes we still use today, such as the curse being passed on by a bite, transformations occurring because of a full moon, and that the cursed will try to lock themselves up to protect others. 

     

    The popularity has never disappeared in cinema. We still remember some legendary and groundbreaking films such as Universal’s The Wolf Man (1941) and An American Werewolf in London (1981) which started a new chapter in special effects. Plus, a few fun ones like Michael J. Fox in Teen Wolf (1985)

     

    Check out some classic (and wonderfully cheesy) films from Full Moon Entertainment. Or some classic music about our lunar neighbor like Full Moon Fever by Tom Petty, Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, or Moonage Daydream by David Bowie. 

     

    But the movies aren’t the only place you can see people howling. Cartoons gave us the Groovy Ghoulies and Fang Face. And even our breakfast is not immune to the moon when you eat Frute Brute cereal. 

    What’s your favorite story of the moon? Do you stay indoors when the moon is full? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Fly Me to the Moon” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]

    What we’re Enjoying

    Jay lept right into the new reboot of the Quantum Leap series, with Raymond Lee as the newest leaper. The premise follows a team that has been looking for Dr. Sam Beckett somewhere in time, but for reasons we aren’t yet aware of, Lee’s character Dr. Ben Song gets trapped for the same reason as the original. There’s a lot of potential here and we can’t wait to see where it goes. Shua got a bit more medieval by jumping into Amazon Prime’s Tolkien series Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power. It’s an origin story of the rings that takes place in a whole different age as the Peter Jackson movies. He is loving it! 

     

    Sci-Fi Saturdays/MCU Location Scout

    31 Days of Horror is coming on October 1! In the meantime, Sci-Fi Saturdays will be on a little break. But you can check out some cool new filming locations with his MCU Location Scout. There are new entries from She-Hulk and Thor: Love and Thunder.  And don’t forget his articles on MCULocationScout.com for some great, interactive maps of filming locations. 

     

    Enjoy Cartoons!

    In 1972 Hanna-Barbera debuted the second chapter of the still popular Scooby Doo series called “The New Scooby Doo Movies”. This popular series ran 24 hour-long episodes, the only Scooby Doo series to be that long. But what really made it stand out was the “real-life”-ish guest stars in each episode. These guest stars joined the Scooby gang to track down the truth of a mystery. A lot of the guests were voiced by their true life counterparts, or at least the voice actors that portrayed the animated characters on other Hanna-Barbera cartoons. 

     

    Some of our favorite guest stars were Don Knotts, the Harlem Globetrotters, Sandy Duncan, Davy Jones, Jonathan Winters, and Batman and Robin, and Don Adams. They got the opportunity to have fun with the Scooby gang and make us wonder who was going to be on next week. 

    Did you watch The New Scooby Doo Movies? Who were your favorite guests? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Enroy Ruff” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]
