Retro Movie Review Of The Week!

This weeks movie is a timeless classic, although it was met with some criticism when it was released because it dealt with some religious themes, but the moment people got over it the religion aspect of the film it became a world wide hit. Two greats minds came together to make one of the greatest movie trilogy's of all time, and these minds were George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, By this time you guys should know the movie by now, if not it's................(Drum roll Please) "Raiders of The Lost Ark". To all those who have seen this great adventure movie about a man named Indiana Jones and his quest to find one of the greatest treasures in history, You know how radical this movie was, and to those who haven't seen it (shame, SHAME) Just kidding, run into your local video store, rent it or buy it. Trust me, you won't be disappointed with this pick, while your there you should also rent the Temple of Doom and Last Crusade as well. This movie has my seal of approval. ENJOY THE MOVIE

Retro Review Of The Week

Yes, It's that time once again, where I must throw another retro review at cha, and this week I've picked an 80s classic known as The Breakfast Club.


The storyline behind this classic movie is simple, 5 students from different social groups are stuck spending their Saturday morning serving detention in their school library. There's the nerd, the jock, the princess, the bad boy, and the basket case, on a regular school day none of these students would be caught dead speaking to one another but through out the movie they realize that they have more in common then they think and that their lives aren't so easy as it may seem. Alot of mischief goes down as the day goes on. Pure 80s classic at his best, Rent it, Buy it, Tivo it, Do whatever but I recommend you watch it

TECHNOTRONIC!!!!!

"Pump up the jam, pump it up, while your feet are stomping, and the jam is pumping, and look the crowd is jumping" If those words seem familiar to you, its because they are. During the late 80 to late 90s, Technotronic ruled the airwaves with their songs which usually had some pretty bumping beats to help us get up off our seats and dance. Til this day their music stills beats on in our hearts and minds. If any of you haven't heard the jamz of Ya Kid K and Technotronic, I recommend going to YouTube and looking up some of their songs, You wont regret it.
