The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 190

Slap my thigh and tickle my side! It's another retro movie filled weekend!

With the weary Sun juuuuust starting to peep it's head through the clouds welcoming a new season and (for us anyway) a much more fun part of the year, we find ourselves peering out of the window with anticipation and excited eyes as we imagine all the wonderful things that could just be on the horizon. Could it be camping? Could it be hiking? Or perhaps could it be the first day of 2016 where a tshirt if just about what you can get away with? Only sweet time will tell.

Have a happy retro weekend!

Great wall of China! It's the weekend alllll over again. Time for another retro movie rundown!

So like an 4x4 enthusiast with their off-roading, fully loaded, high-riding 4x4 who's about to set off into the rocky terrain, we find ourselves faced with a weekend of adventure which will take us to far and distant lands. there will be challenges, there will be drama and of course we will come back with a tale to sell. With a mountain amount of retro movie hills to master, we'll use our skills and endurance to overcome anything that we face and will return for another week, ready to do it all over again!

Have a happy retro weekend!

Will you go sweet? Will you go savoury? Or perhaps will you just eat so much it hurts.....the choice is yours.

Our Top Films To Watch in 2016!

Can you believe it's time for another one of these?! Each year just flies past quicker than the last, but each year we gain even more amazing films to add to our collection and we sure hope the fun never ends!

As big movie lovers (does our huge range of Movie Merchandise make that pretty obvious? Darn!) we really love getting to see some of the best characters ever created once again hit the big screen in always bigger, more exciting and of course more and more detailed and realistic effects than ever before.

2016 is quickly shaping up to be yet another amazing year with some really breath taking and massively anticipated films being released into the wild. So what can we expect from 2016? Well…. it turns out a whoooooole lot.

Take a peep at some of our top films to watch out for in 2016….

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Pretty much as good as life gets! Certainly not your average action-packed superhero film (if there is such a thing?), 2016 will of course bring us this huuuugely anticipated and debated Batman v Superman film! Now those of you who caught the epic 2013 Man of Steel would have perhaps noticed just how much carnage Superman caused, well it seems this sort of chaos certainly caught the eye of Batman himself. Fearing Superman may be out of control, Batman steps in to put it to a stop causing mankind to begin to decide just what sort of hero has a place in our world. With a new and very real threat from Lex Luthor, can Superman and Batman put aside their differences to save the world once again? - Coming March 25th.

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 178

Land ahoy! It's the ruddy weekend again! Must be time for the first Retro Movie Rundown of 2016!

Like an amateur and eager model boat enthusiast, we find ourselves on the banks of our local marine pond with our trusty craft, batteries full of charge and a head full of excitement. We'll get the propellers spinning to simply mind-boggling speeds as we skip and dance our way around the pond surface. Twisting and turning like a gazelle looking to out run a Cheetah, we'll hum along until our time is up and our power is all used up....which is hopefully somewhere near the edge.

Have a happy retro weekend!

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 177

Jingle all the way! Tis the season and tis certainly time for another installment of our Retro Movie Rundown!

Like a frantic parent with just a few hours left to finish wrapping up alllll the big and small gifts ready for the big day, we find ourselves faced with a battle involving paper, tape and patience.  We'll get ever more creative with ways to wrap even the most obscure shapes and sizes just so we can hold the suspense for the recipient for just a little longer. We'll start with a pile of items and materials and end up with a complete collection of suspense and joy.

Have a happy retro weekend!
