The Big Fat Weekend Sofa Movie Challenge

If like me, you're bored to the back teeth of trashy reality T.V then boy have we got a treat for you this weekend! Prepare to cosy up with us TruffleShufflers on the sofa and veg out big time out for a  full on old school movie master class.

Yes, I’ve quite literally challenged myself to watch as many retro movies as possible over the coming weekend. Don't worry - I've only chosen movies available on freeview or terrestrial channels so everyone can join in with my square eyed extravaganza.

The amount of awesome movies on the old telly box is quite frankly incredible so here's my very own old school TV guide for your viewing pleasure!

The day our all our Truffle Shuffle-ing dreams came true!

So for those of you who don't know, here at TruffleShuffle.com, we're named after the one and only TruffleShuffledance, as performed by the incomparable Chunk from The Goonies.......

Yes, our founder loved the iconic movie so much that when it came to coming up for a name for the site back in 2004, Chunk's classic belly shaking move was the only choice and hence TruffleShuffle.com was born.

With that in mind, you can imagine our absolute amazement to discover that none other than Jeff B Cohen AKA the man who played Chunk over 25 years ago is following us on twitter!

MENTAL!

We've even tweeted each other and were completely honoured to send him some of our official Goonies tees including this one of course....

How to do the TruffleShuffle….

As we're sure many of you have already guessed - we're named after a very special scene from the 80's classic, The Goonies!

Ever had the urge to re-create Chunk's infamous TruffleShuffle (Do it!!) - well now you can with this hillarious step by step guide which we just found on here...

Step 1
Stand on something like a milk crate or soapbox with your feet together and knees slightly bent.

Step 2
Lift your shirt up to your chin exposing your belly and man-boobs.

(Note: Ladies, it is acceptable for you to just lift your shirt up to your chest exposing only your midsection. But it is generally not recommended for women to do the Truffle Shuffle, it is not a very flattering dance).

Step 3
Rapidly shake your belly and butt while wildly moving your torso from side to side. It should appear that you are having a seizure, but remain standing with your feet in one place.

Step 4 (This is our favourite!)
Scrunch up your face like an angry chipmunk or deranged woodchuck.

Step 5
Make incoherent sounds as if you just stepped out of a cold shower or are speaking in tongues.

Step 6
In the immortal words of Clark ‘Mouth’ Devereaux, - “Do it! DO IT!”

Still stuck - just copy the big man himself...
