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!
SATURDAY 9TH JANUARY
