Happy Pitcher and Catcher's Eve

This record cold is just a bit much this week. Especially with spring training right on our heels. My blog suffers this time of the year due to the time I have to spend on the computer is spent looking into sleeper picks and what pitchers to take first in my Fantasy Baseball Draft.

Stay warm out there.


Furbacca!

Original Theatrical Trailer.

This is one of those lost gems put out by Empire Video back in the VHS hay day. Also one of my guilty pleasures. The movie is so crazy and bad that I just eat it up. I have to say this is a big step for Kino Lorber they are not known for putting out lost Science Fiction/Horror movies.  This will be a blind by its one of those that has eluded me on DVD.









You're Never Too Old To Go Back.

Camp Takota
2014 | Color | 95 Min. | 1.85.1 | UR | Comedy | Mono | RockStream Studios

Directors:
Chris Riedell
Nick Riedell

Writers:
Mamrie Hart 

Stars: 
Grace Helbig
Chester See
Ellen Karsten

Plot:
With her personal and professional life in shambles, Elise ends up having to take a job as a counselor at her old summer camp. There, she reunites with two estranged friends who attended camp and never left. When the future of the camp is put in jeopardy, the three friends must band together to save it, changing the course of their lives forever.

If you have never attended summer camp you will not love this movie as much as I did. See I went to MDA Summer Camp for 20 years. I walked away when my camper became too old to go anymore. Then my new life took over and thank god I never lost those friendships I made back then. Just like the movie I was away for 10 years. Now I did not have my wife leave me or lose my job like the movie but I did have a best friend (Thanks, Sis) bring me back into a world that not everybody understands. But I world I missed very much.

Camp Takota is a buddy movie in the best of ways. Sure you can predict the movie in the first 5 minutes but if you take the time to sit and lose yourself you will find a perfect gem to spend your time with.


The cast in this movie really gel's and get into your head with their up and down lifestyles. It really took me to a place where you can feel the peace and tranquility that is summer camp. Everything does get tied together in the end. Sure, they all live happily ever after. But the journey to get there is worth it. What you will not get is a meatballs clone, but you will get this very heartwarming movie that should make some of your must see list's for the year. 

My Bunk Mates from last year

To my sister, I thank you for bringing me back into the camp mix! I'm pretty sure if you watch this you will identify with the cast like I did. If I could go back in time I would find a camp to do all year long.

Heartwarming Adventure with Brains...

Thrills, chills, spills! Live the power of the... BMX Bandits

Stars: 
David Argue
John Ley
Nicole Kidman 

Plot: Two BMX expert bikers and a friend of theirs (Kidman) become entangled with a group of bank robbers after discovering a carton of walkie-talkies.

We will always have these movies that others talk about and it peeks your curiosity. BMX Bandits is one of those movies. Of course, there is Nicole Kidman with all that curly hair that everybody must like. And how about those bikes? I was 13 when this came out and at that time I was all about my bike so I would have watched this over and over again. The movie does hold up over time with a fun story for kids and plenty of BMX bike action. But what does not hold up his the soundtrack and the sound effects. 


I'm pretty sure if I was writing this in 1983 there would be a different story. They fit the era but was a little hard on the ears today. The soundtrack was typical 80's synth pop nothing new or groundbreaking here. The cast works well together and the story moves along at a fast pace. This is not a movie for everybody and not to sure anybody over 35 will care too much to sit and watch an old school Australian movie about BMX bikes.


Nichole I give your BMX hair...

#Fthismoviefest short recap.

This past weekend was the 4 annual all Twitter-driven film festival. Nothing better than sitting in the comfort of my own home talking movie's with other folks from around the globe watching the same movies.

2015 marked my third year taking part in the movie festival. And every year it gets bigger and a whole hell of a lot of fun. I already pledge that I will make this bigger in my household next year. I plan on having friends over, food, and an overloaded WiFi.

I'm telling you if you have not heard of this yet you owe it to yourself to look into in. Admittedly it is a little hard to watch and tweet and the same time but there are no rules saying you can't just watch the movie.

I know because I just wanted to sit and watch Hard Target and all its coolness! Ok, so a quick review of the movies I did stick around to watch.


First up the uber fun and completely pun driven Demolition Man. It was a lot of fun to revisit this bad boy with a group of people. So many things that I forgot about and the best thing the things that were pointed out to me. I remember when this movie was out thinking how cute Sandra Bullock was. It was fun to hear I was not alone. If you have not seen this in a while it's a fun and fast 2 hours.

Next up Army of Darkness. Nothing new to share with you here.  Well, ok let me share with you two stories. First I worked at the theater when this was out (Still own the one sheet) in fact I was the projectionist which means I put the movie together and was the first to watch it, well sort of. See being a manager I guess you could say I smuggled some die hard friends in along with a few beers. Oh, the simple days. On a different note, when I was talking to Bruce Campbell one day we talked about dating and the hazards of Rockford, Il girls. It was one of those odd moments when you have something in common with somebody and you can laugh about. FYI, his first wife was from Rockford.

Now on to Hard Target, this was the movie I could not wait for. I have not seen it in years. Again I might still have the one sheet for this. If not I know I have a button you had to wear to promote this movie. Everything is classic about this movie Van Damme's hair, John Woo's slow motion cam. and Dove's. This movie had some of the best tweets. If you have not seen this shame on you. The only thing that would have made this better would have been a been a viewing
of Roadhouse right after.

The other two movies where True Romance that I just did not want to sit through. And Jurassic Park that I had hoped to make it back home for but did not.

I'm having way too much trouble putting this into words so I strongly suggest hanging out with us next year instead. I do want to thanks, F this movie for coming up with such a great idea. How they come up with 4 to 5 tiles that keep everybody happy is beyond me. Also need to thank my wife for allowing me to sit on my butt laughing at a computer while a movie is on the TV, It's always nice to know I have support in my geeky world that I enjoy living in.
