An irreverent glance at the film and TV of yesterday. Does the entertainment of our youth still hold up today, or have we changed too much? Two old friends, Paul and Colin, laugh, argue, criticize and occasionally remember that they’re doing a movie podcast.

It's time for another dose of Retrospection, and in this episode, we are sort of travelling back to our roots as we did the original Knight Rider series back in our first episode. This time we are tackling one of the many reboots, by watching Knight Rider 2000 from 1991. Along the way Paul talks turtlenecks...again, Colin accuses Kitt of inappropriate behaviour, and we discover writing that contains less research than ours. Remember, one man can make a difference, but here's two that won't.
Music is from the opening theme by Jan Hammer. Find more episodes at Retrospection (podbean.com)

In this episode we unholster or laser guns and take aim at G.I. Joe: The movie from 1987. Originally, intended as a cinematic outing, but relegated to "straight-to-video", this animated feature is an extended adventure for our favorite Joes. Along the way Colin admits he discovered computers instead of girls, Paul gets confused with a cast of thousands, and we both wish we had psychic motivators.
Opening theme by Johnny Douglas and Robert J. Walsh.
