4K UHD Blu-ray: Time Bandits (1981)Terry Gilliam, the master storyteller gave us all the gift of a fantastical trilogy: Brazil, Time Bandits and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, and although all 3 films are highly thought of, I don’t know if they are widely accepted as the absolute genius that they are. So yes, I […]

Review: Legend Bowl
I’ve been a fan of American Football since 1982 (full story here) and became totally addicted to Head Coach on the Spectrum in 1986, playing it for MANY hours over the following years.

4K UHD: Weird Science (1985)Weird Science is a John Hughes film and was released in 1985. Most of you probably already are aware of this.

Review: Classic Racers Elite
Although racing games aren’t my first choice when it comes to selecting a genre of video games, I am partial to burning some rubber every now and then.
