#80's gold

[freetheshit-outofyou]

Mutant Hunt (1987), tonight's bedtime movie. "The future is a dirty place...When New York is besieged by mutant cyborgs with an insatiable lust for ripping human beings apart, it's dedicated mutant hunter Matt Riker to the speedy rescue! A diabolical scientist, "Z" has injected these mechanical zombies with a sexual narcotic that induces a thirst for killing. All over Manhattan, the robotic Romeos begin loving 'em and leaving 'em...dead."

Totally accurate description.

If you had a Commodore 64, you were guaranteed to have 2 racing games in your collection: Pole Position and Out Run. Released to arcades in 1988 by Sega, nice graphics, gameplay and a bangin' soundtrack (which I've treated you to above!) helped to quickly make it popular, resulting in a conversion to multiple platforms, the C64 port being picked up by U.S. Gold. The cars in the game are modeled after their real life counterparts, a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle, 1971 Chevrolet Corvette, 1985 Porsche 911, and a 1985 BMW 325i Cabriolet E30. The first release of Out Run also included a cassette of the music from the original arcade version.

In the book that Roger Rabbit is based on Jessica Rabbit is your classic femme fatale and a gold digger. Her movie counterpart seems like this at first BUT shes's not bad she's just drawn that way.

Jessica genuinely loves Roger, will do anything to protect Roger, it's implied that Roger is the only person who loves Jessica for her personality rather than her body and Jessica loves Roger because he makes her laugh. It's the other characters that project there assumptions and libido on her.

Despite this her popularity led to characters that imitated the sex appeal but lacked the depth.

Examples: Goldie Pheasant from Rock A Doodle, Holly Would from Cool World, Lola from Shark Tale and Angel from Fish Police. (as for why the last two are fishes is beyond me)

Posted this on twitter but it applies here, too. Also a plug to I guess follow me on twitter if you want - I'm not super active there insofar as posting goes, but I'm on there a lot (more than I ought to be, tbh).

Anyway I'm posting this partly to share but mostly bc I have things to say about it and I want to come back to it without it getting lost in my brainpan.

"My pal John Stewart wrote a hit song called "People Out There Turning Music Into Gold," it was about Fleetwood Mac. Stevie Nicks sang on it and did a few live shows with John in 1981." Henry Diltz

(the song is just called "Gold" btw)

I hope the Booster Gold TV series does the bit about how the reason his superhero name is "Booster Gold" in the first place is because he got flustered trying to say his name in front of the President of the United States and then felt too embarrassed to correct him in front of the media.

He's an absolute dork but we love him all the same.

After stealing a ton of money from retirees, this man was murdered on live TV via bayonet.

I'm not joking.
