Something Fantastic! Early in my college years, I would often shrink away from people for a few hours and walk over to the local K&B Drugstore (sadly, long gone) and look through their selection of magazines and comics. Once in awhile I would read an article about rumors surrounding a potential X-Men film or otherContinue reading “Throwback Thursday : The Fantastic Four (1994)”

Throwback Thursday: The Goonies (1985)
They Are Good Enough 1985 will go down in history as one of my favorite years.
