The electrical energy generated between the old and new caused an explosion forcing the two to merge. Out of the smoke the X-Millennial Man emerged. He came to be the greatest critic of Pop Culture since... 1982?

Join Ty and RD as they go through the history, and awesomeness of Mr. T.

"Back to the Future" was built to be a franchise. In 1989 Part 2 came out followed by Part 3 a few months later. The movies were met with mixed reviews.

Christopher Reeve brought Superman to the big screen, and it was a huge success. At least the first two movies were huge successes. After a disappointing Superman III, Cannon Films graabed the rights and tried to bring success back to the Big Blu Boy Scout with Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Reeve was back along with Margot Kidder and Gene Hackman. Up and coming stars Muriel Hemingway and Jon Cryer were added. Succes seemed to be in the cards. The movie had bad effects, a bad story, and it killed the Superman movie franchise for decades.
