80's Movie Weekend



You didn't think I was going to bring you the first two movies that last two Saturdays and leave out #3 did you? Of course not. By 1985 Mel Gibson was becoming a bonafide big screen star and the third movie in this trilogy featured Tina Turner in it as well and received mostly positive reviews. It's "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome."
