Hot jam doughnuts! It's the weekend all over again? Okay, well if you insist!
Like a trusty and experienced local fishmongers (bear with us), we find ourselves seeking out some of the finest retro films like that mornings catch of the day. We're looking for something that's different, beautiful with plenty of action to it that will dazzle our customers and keep them coming back for more. Keeping our selection cooler than a high school jock in a teen film, we'll display them with pride like our ever growing DVD collection before selecting the perfect specimen to help us create the perfect fish pie and retro movie night in.

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 183
Sweet potato pie! How can it be? Another retro movie weekend so soon? Well....if we must!
Like the first pioneering pilots ever to reach the skies, we find ourselves once again doing some last-minute checks before our big leap of faith into the weekend. Sofa....check! Snacks....check! Top retro characters....you betcha! Firing up our engines, we'll power our way down the runway before lifting into the unknown. Reaching dizzying heights before we even know it, we'll be fired off to far and distant lands like some of the most iconic characters ever to hit the silver screen where more adventures than we can even imagine await us.
Have a happy retro weekend!

It's Here! Deadpool Is Out Today! Are You Ready?
Well....the big day we've ALLLLL been waiting for is finally here folks! Yep the long awaited and super anticipated Marvel superhero film hits our big screens here in the UK today and well.....we're pretty darn excited!
Now, there is no denying Deadpool's perhaps slightly chequered big screen movie past, BUT there's also no denying just what and amazing character he is and what a gem of the Marvel universe he's grown to be. Featuring with the X-Men in their comics from only the early 90s, Deadpool certainly broke the mould along with the fourth wall with his perhaps sliiightly twisted sense of humour and of course super healing ability much like his buddy Wolverine. A human experiment gone wrong, Deadpool would quickly become something of an icon and certainly a character who stood out from the pack.
Getting a new lease of life this year, this new big screen adventure sees Special Forces operative Wade Wilson played by Ryan Reynolds *swoooon* undergo a rogue experiment which leaves him disfigured and the ability to heal super-fast. A shift in look and ability helps him create and alter ego with a warped mind and lack of fear which enables him to better hunt down the man who nearly destroyed his life. Will he do it? Will he find justice?
Take a peep at the official trailer...
Jumping around like a kid at Christmas, we're sure this amazing new installment of this classic character will live up to the expectations and hopefully bring this epic character to a whole new audience and scratch the Deadpool itch of all us old school fans.
So....are YOU ready?? Get into the Marvel mood in style with our huge range of Superhero TShirts and goodies from just £9.99!

Great Scott! The Iconic DeLorean Is Back!
Stop the press! We've just had some amazing news come though TruffleTowers which we are crying to share!
The super iconic car which was of course made famous in 80s cult classic Back To The Future will be getting a new lease of life as they are set to go into production once again for the first time in around a whopping 33 years. - feeling old now.
Following some recent changes to US law surrounding small scale car production, DeLorean Motor Company which now operates in Texas can now successfully switch from previously just restoring old models, to building this retro classic from new once again!
From our sources we can reveal that there are as of yet no plans to change the overall appearance which is SUUUUCH great news. Hopefully though their will perhaps fit it with some extra mod cons like air con and a flux capacitor or two. Is that really too much to ask now?
So all you Back To The Future fans! If you see one of these beauties parked up on your street sometime in 2017, either Marty is off on another adventure, or you have one of the coolest neighbours ever.
