    Tuuuu-biiiii... TUBI! (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    I don’t remember which day it was, but I’ll never forget the day itself. I was listening to an old episode of Kevin Smith’s podcast SModcast, and he and Scott Mosier were talking about how Bob Hawk played such a big part in getting Clerks in front of the right people, which led to the film being accepted into Sundance and changing Kevin’s life forever. Bob was simply doing what Bob always does: finding new voices in film and alerting some very influential people when a new voice arrives. And the

    My daughter and I sat still in the theater as the end credits of TransFormers: The Movie finished rolling, and everyone in the nearly packed room stayed in their seats as well… with the exception of the two guys in the front row who got up and left as the credits started. I was happy to see that everyone else got the memo. There was something else to see after the 40th annivesary of the 1986 film ended. And that something was… it was special. And it would be a beautiful final bow by the man who

    40 Years in the Making (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    It’s been 40 years since I last saw it in a theater, and I never thought I’d be able to see it again on the big screen, but today, it happened. Today, I took my daughter to the 40th anniversary re-release of TransFormers: The Movie. Was it everything I had hoped it would be? Hard to say no, since I’ve seen this movie so many times since my father dubbed the VHS rental back in 1987 and I’ve since owned it as the 1999 VHS re-release and three different versions of the DVD from 2000, 2006, and 2016

    Season 3: STILL More Than Meets the Eye (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    On August 8, 1986, one of the most influential movies of my life would be released. I obviously already had the Star Wars Trilogy and the Star Trek original series and films that followed (we hadn’t yet stepped into The Next Generation until the next year), but my dad made a point to introduce those to me. When TransFormers made its debut on WPIX-11 in Poughkeepsie, NY in 1984, this was a franchise I discovered and embraced all on my own. So two years later, I knew I had to be at a movie theater
