The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 92
Double Pepperoni! It can only be the Weekend!
So as we stand ever so magnificently in the centre of a 20 X 20 Wrestling ring shimmering in our sequined spandex tights. Let us be your greased up, mullet headed, 80âs pro wrestler. As we prepare to lay the smack down on retro movie mayhem. Weâll stomp mud holes and walk them dry all over cinematic greatness before hitting our glorious finishing move we like to call celluloid wonder, for the three count and the victory. Oooooh yeah!
Have a happy retro weekend!

Truly outrageous news.... There's a Jem And The Holograms movie on the way! #jemthemovie
All of glitter and gold filled dreams just came true!
We'd been given a nod by our friends at Hasbro that some BIG Jem news was on the way and here it is....
Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun, G.I. Joe: Retaliation director Jon M. Chu and Paranormal Activity producer Jason Blum announced via YouTube that they're working on modern day, live action reinvention of the 1980s Hasbro classic....
For the film, the trio are aiming to crowd-source crucial elements from casting to costume design. 'It's sort of like Kickstarter,' says Mr Chu, 'but instead of asking for your money, we're asking for your creativity.'
Fans can upload videos and photos to YouTube or Tumblr explaining what they love best about the original Jem with the hashtag #JemTheMovie.
PLUS They're put out an open casting call, asking people who can sing, dance and act to upload a two-minute video showcasing their talents for a chance to be involved.

Looking Fresh! Check Out Our Top 90s Inspired T-Shirts!
Sadly! Gone are the days of big baggy jeans, chokers, denim shirts and biker shorts....well for most of us anyways!
BUT do not fear, while a lot of the big trends from the decade have long gone, there's still plenty of ways to show your love for these amazing times with some retro 90s inspired tees!
Like a lot of the classic flicks from the 80s, it seems there are a whole list of amazing films and TV shows from the decade that gave us the Spice Girls and hit show F.R.I.E.N.D.S.
Take a trip down the not so distant past with some of our very best selling 90s T-Shirts...
Certainly one of the greatest chick flicks of the 90's, Clueless too the world by storm as we entered the weird and wonderful world of Cher, Tai and Dionne. This cult classic was a lively adaptation of 1816 Jane Austen novel 'Emma' and featured the lives of the ultra-rich at Beverly Hills high school.
Don't Forget! 30th March = Mothers Day: Top Gifts For Her....
It's nearly that time again folks!
Always managing to sneak up on us, Mothers Day is a great chance for all us kiddies out there to come together and show our love for one of the most important women in our lives...our MUMS!
Well! To help avoid any IOU's in cards, belated gifts, or even panic buying on the day when everything has already gone (we've certainly been there!), we thought we would put together a little something long in advance of the big day (30th March) to help give you some inspiration and also just as a heads up for the big day.
Check out some gifts we've picked out which we think would make a great gift for her on the special day in our Mothers Day Gift Guide!
Superhero Mum....
If you're anything like us, you think your mum is a real life superhero! Swooping down in times of need to save the day, doing a millions things at a time, a hard worker with time for everyone....you get the idea! It's time to let her show off her inner powers with some of our amazing Superhero gifts for her....
