Retro Life 4 You

I sit down with Tommy "Throwback" Kovac from the Splat From The Past podcast and talk with him about the 1982 Walter Hill directed 48 Hours. The film is often credited as the first buddy cop genre which includes such greats as Lethal Weapon, Bad Boys, and Rush Hour and it was also Eddie Murphy's debut film. The movie has a solid cast of stars and supporting stars and to this day stands as one of Eddie Murphy's most popular films.

I am joined by Tim of 80's Flick Flashback this week to talk about the movies Nightmare on Elm Street Parts 1 & 3. I chose these 2 movies because both of them carried through Nancy Thompson's story. They are also probably my favorite 2 movies of the franchise. It's hard to beat the original and Dream Warriors was just a great movie. Robert Englund and Heather Langenkamp had a great 1st movie together and part 3 expanded on their rivalry and brought in new blood for the franchise that had us hooked from the start of the movie not to mention we get to understand the origin of Freddy and how he came about. I hope you enjoy the episode, Elm Street was my favorite 80's horror franchise.

Amy Heckerling's directorial debut in 1982 brought us Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The film ranks #15 on Bravo's "100 Funniest Movies" and #2 on Entertainment Weekly's list of the "50 Best High School Movies". A coming of age movie written by  Cameron Crowe with a cast of future stars like Sean Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Judge Reinhold, Forest Whittaker and more.

Today I had the pleasure of sitting down and talking with Mark Anthony Austin. He is a special effects artist that has worked with Industrial Light & Magic as well as Disney, Third Floor Inc and a couple of others as well. While working with ILM he had the opportunity to go back to the Star Wars: A New Hope Special Edition and wear the suit of his childhood hero, Boba Fett. We talk Boba Fett, Star Wars and some of his other works he has done over the years.

This week we take a trip to a galaxy far far away and talk about a lot of things Star Wars! And the thing is, the Star Wars universe is so vast and the history & lore is so deep that we could never talk about it all in one show, I would say we skimmed over it at best and that still brought a great hour of talk about the world we grew up loving in Star Wars. The great ships, the light sabers, the jedi & sith using the force, bounty hunters, different planets and thanks to Jon Favreau and Disney for putting out the great new tv series based on the Star Wars Universe as well. 

Find us wherever you get your podcasts from and when you are done listening, please leave a rating and review I hope you all enjoy the show!

Straitening the curves, flattening the hills.....some day the mountain might get 'em but the law never will! in 1979 Gy Waldron made a TV series based off a movie he had also done called Moonrunners which was about a family of bootleggers. A lot of people thought it wouldn't work but 7 years later we have a successful show with tons of fans to this day & merchandise & memorabilia that could fill multiple warehouses! The show showed how a lot of southern families lived going by the bible while yet showing how still unperfect that they were and had tons of fun car chases and car jumps by Bo & Luke Duke. We had a blast discussing the show and its something I could talk all day about so I hope that you enjoy it as well and that it brings memories of those good ole boys jumping creek beds and outwitting Boss & Roscoe! The world needs a little more Uncle Jesse & a little less Boss Hogg. YeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaW!
