In 1987, Patrick Swayze won hearts and became the male heartthrob of the eighties in DIRTY DANCING. So what would be his follow-up? Becoming an action icon in the amazing cult-classic ROAD HOUSE. The legend of Crazy Swayze was born in what producer Joel Silver promised would be the greatest drive-in B-movie of all time, and he was right. Swayze plays Dalton, a “cooler” – basically meaning he’s the John Wick of bar bouncers – who’s hired to clean up a notorious bar called “The Double Deuce”, only to run afoul of the villainous Wesley (Ben Gazzara), who rules the town with an iron fist. Along the way, he falls in love with the town doctor (the gorgeous Kelly Lynch), with his erstwhile mentor (Sam Elliot) in tow. A good time is guaranteed for all in this latest installment of REEL ACTION!

SPECTRE (2015) Daniel Craig: James Bond Revisited
JoBlo Videos – It’s likely one of the most controversial James Bond movies of all time. Still, Sam Mendes’s SPECTRE was intended to be a massive 007 epic that would pull together elements from all the other Daniel Craig James Bond movies for what I’m sure they hoped would be a global blockbuster that could rival SKYFALL. Fans were excited because it promised the return of Ernst Stavro Blofeld. While the box office receipts and critical reaction fell short somewhat, it was still a blockbuster that paved the way for the upcoming NO TIME TO DIE, even if fans, by and large, seem to dislike it. So join us here on James Bond Revisited as we dig into SPECTRE!

The History of Automan – It’s Like Tron But Different? And On TV
Toy Galaxy – Automan was a science fiction superhero television series. It aired for 12 episodes (although 13 were made) on ABC between 1983 and 1984. It consciously emulates the stylistic trappings of the Walt Disney Pictures live-action film Tron, in the context of a superhero TV series.
A short-lived bold and expensive experiment that didn’t pay off. At least they got an action figure out of it.

The Best Sci-fi Movies From the ‘80s including Hidden Gems!
HyperDrive – With the ’80s been a great decade for movies in general. I have to say a lot of my all-time favourite sci-fi comes from this period. Now in order to stop this video from becoming a Watchmojo popularity contest. I’m going to do something a little different from the norm and split the vid into two segments.
The first been a quick summary of what I think are the best sci-fi films. And the 2nd – will cover all the entertaining movies with great one-liners and cheese action scenes that didn’t quite make it to the top and got overshadowed by all the instant classics that we all love today.
