"Totally Awesome! Cars and Culture of the 80s and 90s" Exhibit at The Petersen Automotive Museum
"Totally Awesome! Cars and Culture of the 80s and 90s" Exhibit at The Petersen Automotive Museum YouTube video by Robert Coker

I love cars, and I love the 80s, and I LOVED this exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum. A screen-used DeLorean Time Machine and a flying motorcycle from “Galactica 1980” were just two of many highlights.

If you are a Funko fan, and are anywhere near Hollywood, you’ll want to spend some time in their LA flagship store. Really fun!

I feel like I say “I hate this timeline so much” almost daily now.

“The National Film Registry Is The Warmest Place To Hide.”

(So glad Carpenter’s “The Thing” was FINALLY added… about 4 decades late, but whatever.)

Eddie Sotto passing is a monumental loss. A legend gone far too soon.

#Imagineering has lost one of its greatest talent with the passing of #EddieSotto, who was both a colleague and friend. We spent a night where Eddie gave his time and suggestions for #RocknRollerCoaster when it was due to open. Eddie will be missed.

Extract from Rob Reiner's Wikipedia

1986 - Stand By zme
1987 - The Princess Bride
1989 - When Harry Met Sally
1990 - Misery
1992 - A Few Good Men

Extract from Rob Reiner's Wikipedia Filmography 1986 - Stand By zme 1987 - The Princess Bride 1989 - When Harry Met Sally 1990 - Misery 1992 - A Few Good Men

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

I just want to once again congratulate every business and media outlet who tripped over their own dicks to take right-wing outrage in uncritical good faith and ruin peoples’ careers over extremely tame internet comments about Charlie Kirk 48 hours before immediately forgetting he ever existed.

Del Toro’s Frankenstein is breathtaking. Cried at the end. See it on as big a screen as you can.

I got to check out a fantastic little museum of vintage automobiles this weekend, the Motte Vintage Car Museum in Menifee, CA. The '57 Thunderbird coupe is sooooo fine.

Political cowardice in our time: No figure from either party has so far issued a statement in support of Paul Dano.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.

They are lying to us.

"Atomic Rocket" Roller Coaster T-Shirt!

Midcentury graphic design is an aesthetic that I love and this shirt aims to capture that look for a space-age themed roller coaster that would have debuted in the late 1950s/early 1960s.

Get your today at ThrillRags!

Sooo this is me, I make stuff to try to pay for stuff. If you could, please like, share and follow, and maybe buy something if you can, I’m hoping to continue but funds are drying up fast.

A way better sequel that it gets credit for. "Prey" is probably my second fave after the original, but this one is so strong.
