This week we weren’t expecting to find much in the way of interesting retro-esque films on telly because of the football. So we were pleasantly surprised at what was on offer. If singing nuns, teenage detectives or Swayze’s ever gyrating hips sound like your brand of cup o’tea then this weekend’s retro movie rundown is right up your road.

Enjoy and have a happy retro weekend :-)

I'm a MASSIVE fan of retro movies and 80's film tshirts. Nothing excited me more as a kid than when I found out that my favourite film was coming back with a sequel - even more exciting when I was treated time and time again - like Back to the Future and Rocky!

So when the 2's, 3's and 4's started drying up and the classic 80's sequels began to dwindle, it dawned on me that the films I dreamt of and wished for may never come. Twenty years later, and here's the top five I'm still desperate to see made...

Goonies 2

Goonies had to be number one for us here at TruffleShuffle, we’d all love to see the original cast and crew make another one.

What would it be about? It's rumoured the sequel could be about the Goonies own children having an adventure, maybe some sort of holiday reunion for the original characters and maybe them getting into trouble and their kids having to save them.

Whatever it’s about... if they make one, we’ll be there!

When it comes to finding that perfect gift for either friends, relatives or that someone special, one thing's for sure (well for me) it can be a bit of a challenge to get it right. I seem to find myself shopping for things that I know I like instead of what the 'giftee' would actually want, surely I'm not the only one!?

Well to make that sometimes daunting challenge just that little bit easier and way more fun than rushing from shop to shop on a quest (maybe just a guy thing) I've put together a shortlist of some of my top retro gifts for 80's kids! Enjoy.

Up first is one of the coolest iPhone cases we've ever seen! This retro Gameboy iPhone 4 case sends memories flooding back of 'well spent' hours of Gameboy action back in the day before we'd even heard of 3D, HD, LCD and everything else D! This is a real gamers gift that'll keep the memories alive every time they reach for their phone.Check out the full range of iPhone cases here.

Surely no self respecting kid in the 80s would have gone their whole life without owning at least one Casio watch?! The iconic symbol of retro, this trusty timepiece is one of the biggest must-have accessories for someone who lived in the 80s. I must admit, i wear this one every day and it's still a winner. Available in a variety of colours and styles, check out our complete Casio collection here.
