| 3936 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @OldSchool80s I actually owned a New Kids On The Block doll that had a similar cassette gimmick, though it just featured an interview with the group from what I recall. @Vaporman87 When I worked at Disneyland as a costumed character I actually met M.C. Hammer while dressed as Kronk. He was still rocking a Walkman and it was 2001! @jkatz Yeah, Joe Camel was the least of our concerns. All of our Hollywood heroes from Ghostbusters to Arnold were lighting one up back in the day. | Jun 09, 2017 |  | |
| 3935 | Article | jkatz | In the immortal words of Buzz Aldrin, "Second comes right after first." | Top number 2 Songs from the 80s that never made it to number 1 | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3934 | Article | jkatz | I remember my family had a Joe Camel bath towel when I was really young. No idea where it came from or what happened to it, but given that I was regularly in contact with it for a period of time and never got addicted to smoking, I think all that hysteria was largely unfounded. *reaches for e-cigarette* | Antique Store Finds: Reborn | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3933 | Article | jkatz | Disagree about Comix Zone. Sure, it's not a complex or deep game, but it still holds up pretty well all these years later...Sketch Turner's design aside. I never heard of Combo Man before, but when I was 9 or 10 I had the same exact idea-combine a bunch of superhero costume pieces into a new, "original" character. Goes to show you the level of creativity those 90s ad execs had. I probably don't need to tell you this, being a comics fan and all, but there was a lot of great series in the 90s too! I'd be interested in seeing your opinion on those as a follow up. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3932 | Article | Vaporman87 | This is an amazing list for certain... but I still can't get over seeing Prince sitting on a toilet. That's legendary. | Top number 2 Songs from the 80s that never made it to number 1 | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3931 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ha! Laughable, these. You have to love Adam X. Seriously. Nothing screams "EXTREME!!!" more so than that guy. He makes every other "EXTREME!!!" style character look like Dick Tracy. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3930 | Article | Vaporman87 | Man. Still can't believe we actually lived in a time when M.C. Hammer was not only famous, but actually spawned figures and a cartoon. If not any other time, surely that time would have been the right one for complete reality implosion. | Antique Store Finds: Reborn | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3929 | Article | OldSchool80s | Love, love, love The Breakfast Club. I enjoyed reading your perspective and agree with the majority. Thanks for sharing! | The Breakfast Club and Changing Perceptions | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3928 | Article | OldSchool80s | Love that the MC Hammer doll includes a "Real Cassette" inside! Fun finds. I rarely purchase anything when I go, but it definitely is entertaining from a nostalgia perspective. | Antique Store Finds: Reborn | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3920 | Article | Lazlo | I am a great fan of "The Breakfast Club" and John Hughes, and feel so blessed to have had both as part of my teen years. I think you have some insightful comments about BK. It was indeed about five teens, who could have been teens from almost any American high school, breaking through the stereotypes and discovering each other as real individuals. Its a protest against the clique system. And its full of these revealing moments: when Bender talks about his apparently abusive parents, when the Andrew (the jock) reveals a cruel prank he played on another student and draws a response from Brian (the nerd), when Allison (however awkardly) gradually reveals more of herself as the movie progresses. Really, the film is a breakthrough movie, and deserves a lot more credit that it sometimes gets. | The Breakfast Club and Changing Perceptions | Jun 08, 2017 | |
