Note, we recorded this before the new year, so there are a few out of date statements. I do apologize for the lateness but Life happens. Anyway, While we review this nostalgic film, there is also discussion about Andre The Giant's wrestling career, why recasting a modern day remake with the cast of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" would be hilarious and why "Haywire the Series" is an awesome Post Apocalyptic revenant series. Also stay tuned till after the ending credits for an interesting stinger about Japanese culture (NSFW) and the best scenes of the film performed by several talented voice actors.
