<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1612471/open_sms">Send us a text</a>Join us on our Christmas romp as we destroy everything in our path to bring you the goods on this 1984 box office monster that’s been largely relegated to semi-suspended animation. At least in comparison to other top box office competitors of the year.  Why is that? Gremlins is the highest grossing film of all time to never reach number one at the domestic box office. It’s also largely responsible for the existence of the PG-13 rating system the MPAA implemented two months after its released. This movie is deserving of prominent placement on the Christmas mantle in any collection! What more can I say? Do you like talk of classic candies of the 80s? We’ve got it.   Merry Christmas 🎄  Tony, Phil, Thom

Gremlins 1984

The Movie Loft Podcast features three Boston boys, Tony, Phil and Thom, in an old barn loft talking about '80s movies and memories.&nbsp; The name and premise is also a nod to a titular Boston institution, The Movie Loft, featuring Dana Hersey, which ran on WSBK TV-38 throughout our formative years. This project started as an excuse to capture our conversations for posterity. Highlighting a different movie in each episode, we revisit some long forgotten memories, and in the process weave together a documentary of our salad days.&nbsp; The point of this show is not to walk anyone through a movie scene by scene - we’re well aware you’ve been watching these flicks for decades. The aim is to discuss our deep appreciation for what it took to get each picture made, where we were when we experienced them, and how they’re a part of the zeitgeist of their times. Sure, we have some opinions, maybe even a few “hot takes”, but we’re really just here for your entertainment. Hopefully you’ll finish each episode feeling like you had a seat at our table.
