The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 85
Cowabunga! Itâs the weekend
So like the humble fuzzy tailed Squirrel, let us go foraging for you as we jump from tree to tree looking for retro movie madness, weâll collect mouth falls of cinematic magic before we store them away in an old hollowed out tree while we sit back and enjoy the celluloid wonder.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Days of thunder! Hooray for the weekend!
So like the prehistoric Ice Age set on a snowy landscape amongst a herd of great woolly mammoths, let us be your group of storm hardened cave men dressed in the fur of the sabre toothed tiger as we go hunting for mega movie awesomeness, gather retro cinematic greatness and set a light to classic celluloid wonder.

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 22!
Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah! It smells like the weekend is upon us! After two whole weeks of movie fasting through attempting to paint and decorate the "Olds" house, utilising my man skills of hanging wallpaper, drinking tea and eating biscuits (I recommend a chocolatey digestive) I am fully in the mood for some awesomely 80's movies. So like a rocketship full of retro fuel and nostalgic cinematic glory, strap yourself in tight as we stare up at the man in the moon and wonder if he's really made of cheese before we blast off at supersonic speed into deep dark space.
Have a happy retro weekend :-)
