Shatner is on a global scale. He's our Star Wars project....oddly enough. lol

Rush simply couldn't be contained.

John Candy has been on covert ops since 1994.





................now I have the SCTV theme song running thru my head, and I want to throw a tv out the window. lol

Could be worse, you could have Ann Murray's Muskrat Love playing in your head. Before his celebrity roast, I never knew Shatner was a Canadian Jewish Cowboy. Be careful though, when the rappers hear about your legal pot and hookers, they'll spend their summers in O' Canada.

As obsessed as everyone seems to be lately with 'remakes' of classic movies that DO NOT NEED to be remade, some things just make sense.

Very true, it's aged quite well and is still as enjoyable today as it was back in 85.

The only thing I could say is that the special effects could stand a bit of updating.

I live about an hour from the facility where they make "brand new" 1981 DeLoreans.

DeLorean's were built on the dreams (and hubris) of one man, so the only present-day auto company that could come close is Tesla, headed by the indomitable entrepeneur/engineer Elon Musk. He's only 40 but has already had huge success spearheading PayPal and SpaceX, the private rocket delivery company.Tesla's all electric Model S Performance 4-door coupe would totally fit the part. And just think: 1/4 mile in 12.6 seconds on a freakin battery pack!!!

Probably not. Muskrat Love is a Captain & Tennille tune.
