Pryde of the X-Men!
While produced as a TV pilot, I originally knew Pryde of the X-Men as a random videocassette from our town’s last mom & pop video store. I fell in love with it!
Released in 1989, it’s something like 1992’s X-Men: The Animated Series, but definitely not an exact match. A great little ep that’s totally worth seeing, even if only for historical purposes. Enjoy!
The Making of Dick Tracy!
I love those old “Making Of” TV specials, which were essentially just paid advertisements for upcoming movies, but still so incredibly interesting. I’ll watch ’em even if they’re for films that I have zero interest in, but when we’re dealing with something like Dick Tracy? Oh, count me the hell in.
It’s from 1990.
In other news, I’ve noticed that many of the videos featured on Dino Drac After Dark — including yesterday’s — have already been pulled from YouTube. Hey, you gotta be fast if you wanna keep up with DDAD! (As you’ve probably guessed, none of the videos featured here are my uploads. I just keep digging until I find something interesting, and then hope it stays up for longer than six hours!)
Masters of the Universe!
Wow, I can’t believe this one was just sitting on YouTube, and in an official capacity, no less. Here’s the awesome (don’t let anyone tell you differently) Masters of the Universe movie, from 1987:
You don’t need to be a He-Man fan to get into this one. The live action adaptation of the cartoon is like Star Wars meets Back to the Future, and I absolutely adore ALL OF IT.
Enjoy! (And happy new year, because this is my first chance to say it!)
Rudolph’s Shiny New Year!
Yes, Rudolph had a New Year’s special, too!
Rudolph’s Shiny New Year premiered on ABC back in 1976. Enjoy!
