    Episode 196: "Fanboys" (2009) With Rob The Movie Geek!

    Welcome back, Radical Ones! Our Star Wars Summer has officially reached its SEASON FINALE, and we’re ending things with a movie made for every obsessive movie geek who has ever counted down the days to a new Star Wars adventure: “Fanboys” from 2009! And who better to join us for the finale than the return of our original co-host and resident Movie Geek, Rob! Set in 1998, Fanboys follows a group of lifelong Star Wars fanatics during the unbelievable hype leading up to Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace. When they learn their friend Linus may not live long enough to see the movie, the gang resurrects an old childhood dream: take a cross-country road trip, break into Skywalker Ranch, and steal an early look at Episode I! What follows is a ridiculous Star Wars-fueled adventure packed with Star Wars references, arguments with Trekkies, friendship, nostalgia, road-trip insanity and some incredible cameos from familiar faces including Carrie Fisher, Billy Dee Williams, Ray Park, William Shatner, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes. But underneath all the jokes, Fanboys is really about something we know very well around here: holding onto the movies, characters and memories that meant everything to us growing up. “Fanboys follows a group of lifelong Star Wars fans on a cross-country mission to infiltrate Skywalker Ranch and see The Phantom Menace before its release. Set against the enormous anticipation surrounding Episode I, the 2009 comedy combines road-trip madness, geek culture, friendship, nostalgia and a genuine love letter to Star Wars fandom.” Stars: Sam Huntington, Chris Marquette, Dan Fogler, Jay Baruchel, Kristen Bell, Seth Rogen, Danny Trejo, Carrie Fisher, Billy Dee Williams, Ray Park, William Shatner, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes. So grab your lightsabers one last time as Rob the Movie Geek returns, we say goodbye to Star Wars Summer and officially close out another season of Radical Retro Rewind?! And don’t go too far, Radical Ones… because the road to our 200TH EPISODE is officially underway and we’ll also be heading back to Third Earth for ThunderCats 2011! ⚡️ Please Like 👍 Comment 📝 and Subscribe ✔️ to support the channel! ⚡️Rob's Instagram: /⁠⁠⁠Brunch With The Halliwells⁠⁠⁠ ⚡️Davids Instagram ⚡️Radical Ryan's Instagram Please Like 👍 Comment 📝 Subscribe ✔️ to support the channel! ⁠⁠THUNDERCATS INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM ⁠⁠⁠⁠TWITTER⁠⚡️For Business Inquiries & Beyond: Ryanhunterstudios@gmail.com Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Episode 195: "Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure" & “The Battle for Endor” (1984/1985)

    Welcome back, Radical Ones! Our Star Wars Summer takes one last trip to the forest moon of Endor as we tackle BOTH live-action Ewok movies: “Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure” (1984) and “Ewoks: The Battle for Endor” (1985)! And who better to join us than the return of our friend and Ewok fan our Lovely Leah! First, Caravan of Courage introduces us to young siblings Cindel and Mace Towani, who find themselves stranded on Endor after their family’s starcruiser crashes. With their parents missing, the children team up with Wicket and a brave caravan of Ewoks on a fantasy-filled quest through the forests of Endor. Then things get MUCH darker in The Battle for Endor, as Cindel and Wicket face the invading Sanyassan Marauders, led by the villainous Terak and aided by the witch Charal. Along the way, they meet the wonderfully grumpy hermit Noa Briqualon and his speedy little companion Teek. These movies may be strange, cheesy, surprisingly dark and unlike almost anything else in the Star Wars universe… but for Ewok fans, they’re also a wonderfully weird piece of 1980s Star Wars history. “Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure and The Battle for Endor expand the world of Endor beyond Return of the Jedi, blending Star Wars with classic fantasy, family adventure, monsters, magic and plenty of Ewoks. Originally released as television films in 1984 and 1985, the two adventures follow Wicket and young Cindel Towani through two very different journeys across the forest moon." Stars: Warwick Davis, Aubree Miller, Eric Walker, Fionnula Flanagan, Guy Boyd, Wilford Brimley, Siân Phillips, Carel Struycken, Niki Botelho, Paul Gleason, Daniel Frishman, Debbie Lee Carrington, Tony Cox, Kevin Thompson, Margarita Fernández and Pam Grizz.
