The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 80!
Aunt Gemimaâs pyjamas! - Itâs another festive weekend!
So after our festive feast of roasted turkey, Brussle sprouts, Carrots and crispy roast potatoes, let us be your rather full, partially merry but quite sleepy Grandpa as we sit back in our favourite arm chair and gently nod off to the comforting sounds of retro movie magic, weâll dream about cinematic greatness and dribble a little tiny amount for celluloid wonder.
Have a festive retro weekend!

Our Top Sesame Street Spoofs!
Just like many kids of the 80s, we really were raised on the street, Sesame Street of course! We loved nothing more than to sit back and let Big Bird, The Count (ah-ah-ahhhhhh), Grover, Elmo, Cookie Monster and of course Bert and Ernie and all of their human friends whisk us off to the hottest street on TV for some fun. We laughed, we learnt and above all else we loved! This show taught us so much that has stuck with us to this very day we just had to get to work creating even more Sesame Street inspired masterpieces for you guys to enjoy.
To show our appreciation for this simply amazing show and all the cool characters, we've been hard at work creating some amazing new Bert and Ernie T-Shirts featuring a photo print of show stalwarts and BFF's! Take a peep!
To celebrate our amazing new tees and these characters we've all grown to love, we thought we would share with you lovely lot some of our favourite Sesame Street spoof clips which feature some amazing takes on the hottest TV shows around! Enjoy....

1) Miracle on 34th Street: The scenes of the Macyâs Thanksgiving Day Parade are actually taken from the 1946 parade. The movie is credited with bringing the traditional parade to the national spotlight, and Macyâs employees were given half a day off so they could see the first showing of the movie.
2) Home Alone: In the scene where chief bad guy played by Joe Pesci bites Kevin's finger, he actually bit harder than expected and left Macaulay with a scar he has to this day.
