  • Watched It in the '80s Episode 29 "Major League"
    Aug 29 2022

    On this episode of Watched It in the '80s, I'm joined by Alex of the Field 2 Screen and What Is From podcasts. We stepped up to the plate and took on "Major League" from 1989 which was written and directed by David S. Ward and featured Tom Berenger, Charlie Sheen, Corbin Bernsen, and a very young Rene Russo.
    This movie is an all-time favorite of mine and I'm so glad Alex picked it. The timing is perfect to cover one of the best Baseball Movies of the '80s with the push for the playoffs heating up. It's a feel good movie about a team of "has-been's and never will be's " who pull together and overcome the odds to push to the top and try to win a Pennant for the city of Cleveland.

  • Watched It in the '80s Episode 28 "Outland"
    Jul 23 2022

    Join Jerry and I as we quest to the mining colony on Jupiter's moon of Io where things are not running as smooth as Sean Connery (Marshall O'Neil) would like. "Outland" was released  in May 1981 and was written and directed by Peter Hyams. Outland received an Oscar nomination for best sound and while not being known as a great Sci-Fi Drama, it has built a big cult following over the decades. If you're like me, and love Sean Connery in roles where he is a good cop in a bad place, then you'll love Outland!
