    It kills me how little you know Sissy Spacek. In the 80's she was regarded as one of the most serious actresses in the film industry. Her and Merle Streep were always regarded as the two best female actors. I think from the late 70's through the 80's she must have been nominated for five or six Oscars.

    Fun Fact: Dr. Pepper was made to be drank warm/hot IDK if you can still do that or if they've replaced so much it's no longer the case but that's the Dr. Pepper Gimmick, Coca Cola originally had cocaine, Pepsi was a Pepcid ("relieve indigestion" ) and Dr. Pepper unlocks more flavors when heated up.

It's kind of a reverse of this movie, with two modern teens dropped in the middle of a "perfect" 1950s/early 1960s setting. While quite funny, it deals with some very deep topics.

    "Carrie" was Sissy's debut movie and she received an Academy Nomination for Best Actress. She would go on and win the Oscar for Best Actress for portraying Loretta Lynn in Loretta's autobiographical movie "Coal Miner's Daughter." Fun fact about her role in that, that is Sissy's real voice when she's singing Loretta's songs.

    We must give credit where it's due. This film was written and directed by the great Hugh Wilson, creator of the TV series, WKRP in Cincinnati, writer and director of the Police Academy franchise, director of The First Wives Club, etc. His fingerprints are all over this, the innocence, the sweetness and giddy sense of humor. BTW, back in the day, the manufacturer of Dr. Pepper was looking for a way to increase sales and came up with a promotion suggesting hot Dr. Pepper as a new beverage treat! Yes, it was a thing. Also, Dave Foley (aka Troy) is a comedy genius. From his work with the Canadian comedy troupe, The Kids in the Hall, to his years on the TV series, News Radio, his ability to troubleshoot any comedic problem is legendary. He is always great. Also see the film Sky High.

I got a few for him and gave it to him. He had a vendor at the museum and got me in for free if I visited. I went a few times and got in for free. His business lasted a few years at the car museum. The museum is still there. I wish I kept my Blast from the Past button to this day because it is an amazing film and one of my first movies I was working at as a teen.

    If you're a fan of Brendan Fraser and haven't seen them already, two of his must-see films in my opinion are "School Ties" and "Gods and Monsters." All I'll tell you is that both are dramas and include exceptional performances..... like, really exceptional..... like, true masterclass performances.

    "Leave my elevator aloooooooonnnnneeeee"
    -15:24 "Oh my lucky stars..." Sam's reaction was what i was hoping for...
    -21:22 Young Nathan Fillion...
    -21:50 Dave Foley of "Kids in the Hall", "News Radio" and the most recent season of "Fargo"...
    -25:00 I remember when swing dancing was big for like 2 minutes in the late 1990s...
    -26:55 Adam ninja punching Cliff was too good...
    -31:40 "The kindest, most polite, most incredibly rich..."
    -34:19 Only Walken would make the acting choice of sticking his head in a microwave...
    -This is a great, sweet movie. Brendan Fraser was tremendous in the role of Adam. Dave Foley as Troy. All played their parts to perfection.

      ⁠@@busimagenIt was huge because of Swingers. Dance teachers careers were really good for several years. Places opened up all over los angeles. A lot of those restaurants/bars in Los Angeles that appeared in Swingers were packed for a few years after the movie as well. The Captain and Tenille had a fifth career.

      I was an avid swing dancer from 1999 to 2003. So many clubs in the Chicago area had swing dancing nights at least once a week. It was sad when it started to die off.

    This movie was (and IS) such a breath of fresh air! Sissy played the title character in the 1976 horror classic CARRIE, which garnered her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress - rare for that genre. JFK's tv address alerting the nation to the Cuban Missile Crisis was a real event in Oct 1962. Hot Dr. Pepper with Lemon slices was a real thing, too. I love Adam's definition of a Lady and Gentleman, and explaining what 'manners' are. Also, a lot of us never believed the USSR just 'gave up' .

    Tommy Lee Jones is in it too!!!!

    Such a good movie! Fraser on the peak of his career was awesome and even though it was coming to an end at this point, this era of movies was just the best!
    You had the perfect mix of comedy, romance and even some deeper messages and movies were still allowed to take their time and the characters and situations felt believable.
    When I stocked up my DVD collection, this movie instantly jumped to mind, because I never wanted to be dependant of streaming services for a movie like this

    So this movie has a ton of nostalgia for me because part of its promotion was a swing competition for people to be in the big dance scene. A lot of my friends went to compete and we had such a blast even though none of us won. (late 90s had a huge underground swing revival)❤❤❤
