In the late 80's and early 90's, the store at the mall for movie & pop culture fans was Suncoast Motion Picture Company, known mostly as just Suncoast. The stores main emphasis was on selling videos (VHS, DVD, Blu-ray) but the also sold a ton of collectibles & merchandise geared towards movie...
After being on eBay for a long, long, long time I've actually added my first item to sell! 😲 I'm working on clearing out my home office of stuff and testing the eBay waters to see what it's like.
First item up is an enamel lapel pin for the release of Savage Warriors from 1995. The pin is...
Just rewatched this one on Netflix after not seeing it for years. This was the first time I've watched it on a flat-screen TV with a sound system at the house so it was a bit like watching it new for the first time again.
When people speak of movies that couldn't be made today, this is...
What was your first computer? 🤔
I started with typing programs on a Commodore 64 and saving them to a cassette player and using a small black-and-white TV as a monitor. The 80's & 90's were a time of rapid change in the world of computers so my brother & I were fortunate to have been able to...

But it does serve as a great trivia question for Dana Carvey. Not many people remember him in...
When I saw this listed on the front page in the 'Today in History' section I was wondering why it was listed in the TV category instead Movies... I had completely forgotten that they tried to do a TV adaptation! Good movie, bad show. 😄
I had no idea there was a TV series. I was looking for something else and came across this; I can't recall this show at all.
For anybody interested, I found it on YouTube. You'll need to poke around to find the rest of the episodes.

Looking back, after watching the Netflix doc', I must've just watched the first season or two back then...
All of the "Mickey D's" near me have now been torn down and replaced with the 'grey box' design. Some of them are downright depressing with them being square boxes with dark grey trim. Now in a mostly post-COVID lockdown environment it gets even more depressing because most of them have been...
