Angels in the Outfield


Submitted by Mary C

From Wikipedia:

Angels in the Outfield (known simply as Angels in some countries) is a 1994 remake of the 1951 film of the same name. The film stars Danny Glover, Tony Danza and Christopher Lloyd, and features appearances from future stars, including Adrien Brody, Matthew McConaughey, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Neal McDonough.

Unlike the original, which focused on the Pittsburgh Pirates as the team in heavenly need, the 1994 remake focuses on the California Angels, who started play ten years after the original film was released in 1951. The film does, however, make a connection to the Bucs by having its world premiere at the Pirates home at the time, Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh.

Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken


Submitted by Mary C

Yes! This movie was a frequent viewing in my house. Something about the free spirit, the overcoming triumphs, the story of a girl going blind and jumping from ridiculous heights into a pool of water on a horse…unbelievable.

The Love Boat


Submitted by Candace C

From Wikipedia:

The Love Boat (simply Love Boat in its final season) is an American television series set on a cruise ship, which aired on the ABC Television Network from September 24, 1977 until May 24, 1986. The show starred Gavin MacLeod as the ship’s captain, who encourages his customers to find romance. It was part of ABC’s Saturday night “one-two punch”[citation needed] along with Fantasy Island until the latter show ended in 1984.

The original 1976 made-for-TV movie on which the show was based, also titled The Love Boat, was itself based on the nonfiction book The Love Boats by Jeraldine Saunders, a real-life cruise director. Two more TV movies (titled The Love Boat II and The New Love Boat, respectively) would follow before the series began its run.

Under Wraps


Submitted by Milla M

From Wikipedia:

Three 12-year-old kids discover a mummy in the basement of a “dead” man’s house. It comes alive due to the conjunction of the moonlight during that time of the month. They are scared of him at first, but with time discover he is friendly, if clumsy and confused.

The kids name the mummy Harold, and decide he will temporarily take up residence in one kid’s bedroom. After paying a visit to their Halloween-obsessed friend, they discover that if the mummy is not put back in his coffin before midnight on All Hallow’s Eve, the mummy will cease to exist.

Luckily, the sarcophagus is in the Egyptian exhibit at the local museum, but there are a few obstacles. For one thing, Harold’s unusual appearance may attract unwanted attention as Halloween night draws closer. Also, someone powerful, and evil is out to get Harold, meaning the kids to save him before midnight on Halloween.

Reality Bites


Submitted by Ol’ Growler (a black bear that’s totally into Winona Ryder, and also the 90’s)

From Wikipedia:

Reality Bites is a 1994 film written by Helen Childress and featuring the directorial debut of Ben Stiller. It stars Stiller, Winona Ryder, and Ethan Hawke, with major supporting roles played by Janeane Garofalo and Steve Zahn. The film was shot on location in Austin and Houston, Texas in 42 days. The plot is centered on Lelaina (Ryder), an aspiring videographer working on a documentary called Reality Bites about the disenfranchised lives of her friends and roommates (Hawke, Garofalo, and Zahn), and to a certain degree, about Lelaina herself. Their challenges, both documented and not, exemplify some of the career and lifestyle choices faced by Generation X.

Double Dribble


Submitted by Terry “Lord Voldemort” Espinoza

I remember rocking this game all summer when it first came out. My friends and I would explode our rooms with anger when we played, but we always came back to Double Dribble after cooling our heads for a few days. This game was a direct result of my first black eye :(

The Peanut Butter Solution


Submitted by Lindsay S

I was never sure if this foggy early childhood memory was a weird dream I had or real. It was real. The trailor calls it a “heartwarming comedy” but that’s not the case. Creepiest f’ing movie ever!
