The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 113
Great Barrier Reef! Is it nearly the weekend already?!
So, like a brightly blue coloured Surgeonfish, we'll scurry our way around in our ever growing school of friends, navigating the maze of tropical coral that's teaming with life and colour on the hunt for food and shelter away from the bigger and more menacing movie monsters of the sea. We'll scratch around and uncover some retro movie classics, always looking for our next fix of celluloid wonder.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Swoooosh! Bang! Ahhhh! It must be the weekend!
Getting all wrapped up tight and heading deep in to the dark night, we'll crane our necks and wait in eager excitement as we watch the night sky erupt into light from a barrage of firework glory. We'll gaze up at the fiery delights as we reach for our cameras and start rolling, trapping ever more magic onto celluloid wonder.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Exclusive New 'I Survived Jurassic Park' T-Shirts!
Just when you thought our exclusive range of Jurassic Park T-Shirts couldn't fossil-bly get any better, we've only gone and done it!
Inspired by one of the most iconic theme parks ever, Jurassic Park was home to some of the world's most dangerous and deadly creatures including a whole host of genetically re-created Dinosaurs from prehistoric times, all of which were the brainchild of an elderly billionaire philanthropist. Pretty standard stuff right?
As we're sure all you retro movie lovers will know, during one of the parks tours, a huge storm hits fictional Isla Nublar, an islet located off Costa Rica. To make matter worse, their geeky computer programmer, Dennis Nedry who has been bribed to steal dinosaur embryos disables all security systems in the park to allow him to gain access and steal what he needs. Things quickly turn from bad to worse as all the ancient beasts begin to break free and run amok with only freedom and hunting on their minds!

One of the biggest films of the 90s, this Steven Spielberg classic will certainly always have a home in our personal movie collections and now even more love from our exclusive range of movie T-Shirts!
