The sound of 80’s soundtracks always inspire me to write, reminiscing about old films, or just chatting with friends about my youth. I always wonder if I was lucky enough to be born into a golden era of film. Well nostalgia I am told is something that we all go through when we long for the times of yesterday, and are apparently (a scientist has said) denying ourselves adulthood and emotional maturity!
I don’t believe it!
Well actually I do, and I can empathise, I have an irrational love of suck bad films such as “Foxtrap” (Google it) and “The Breakfast Club”, that I forget that modern directors are in a place where they can make some fantastic stories, and finally use special effects properly. Well they often don’t of course, but at least they have the opportunity.
I love films with a passion, and I hope that in twenty years time that people can look back listen to a random song such as Black and gold, remember their youth, and say “oh god do you remember that High School Musical?” can’t believe their remaking it with ________, Zak Efron’s got a cameo as an out of sorts parent.”
Weird, but it might just happen,
Anyways,
The News,
MH has a report that Steven Seagal, was offered the chance to elevate himself from “fat man playing Patti cake” martial arts films, to big screen success once more, but unfortunately turned down a role in Sly’s new film “The Expendables” . The reason as usual is a personality clash, with the films producer. Bad blood aside, how cool would it have been to see the aikido legend in action with a cast list htta reads like a who is who of action gods. (I do not exaggerate here). Here is asuitably shocked Segal in recent photo!
