Another time, another place. That time? 1984. That place? The movies! Where a rock & roll fable was born, yet no one watched it at the time. In America, anyway. In Japan, someone saw it. A few someones. A few someones, that would go on to make some of the coolest anime and video games around. Now, in 2025? It's the perfect time to go back to that another time, and another place. To go back to the 1984 cinematic cult classic, that is the theatrical film Streets of Fire. Or at least we did.

Mow down that cornfield and invite all your favorite dead baseball players as we take a swing at 1989's Field of Dreams. Are daddy issues a prerequisite for watching this movie, or can you just enjoy seeing Ray Liotta in baseball pants? Does Kevin Costner's pancake butt and 80s hair take away from or define his hotness? Can Amy Madigan please show up to Congress tomorrow and deliver some stringent monologues until everyone wises up? We'll give you some answers right after we follow James Earl Jones into those fascinating looking crops.
Remakers, en el día de hoy, os invitamos a compartir nuestros anhelos e ideas, charlando sobre “Campo de Sueños” (Phil Alden Robinson, 1989), una cinta que utiliza el béisbol como contexto o pretexto para hablarnos de la importancia que tiene el perseguir tus sueños. En el centro de la trama, tenemos al paradigma de norteamericano medio, ese tipo con el que todos podríamos identificarnos, un Kevin Costner que ya era un actor consagrado. Junto a él, encontramos otros nombres como Amy Madigan, en el papel de compañera y leal esposa, James Earl Jones, como Terence Mann, escritor trasunto de J. D. Sallinger, Ray Liotta encarnando a “Calcetines” Joe Jackson y Burt Lancaster, como Dr. Archibald “Moonlight” Graham, en la que sería su última película. La banda sonora de James Horner, candidata al Óscar ese año, arropa la historia y acentúa la emotividad de la trama. Una trama que habla sobre todo de redención, reconciliación y fe, aspectos ya presentes en la novela en que se basa la película, obra del escritor W. P. Kinsella, siendo el béisbol y el escándalo de los Chicago White Sox, el marco que envuelve toda la historia. El tono de la cinta, nostálgico y melodramático, con pequeños toques de humor, y el realismo mágico que se usa como recurso, conforman una extraña mezcla que, pese a todo, funciona. Mérito en gran parte del guionista y director Phil Alden Robinson, y del productor Larwence Gordon, que soñaban, como no, con llevar esta historia a la gran pantalla desde que leyeron la novela. El equipo del programa, formado por el bateador novato Javi García, con un promedio nada desdeñable de Home Runs, el prolijo cácher de rodillas de goma Óscar Cabrera, y el rey del diamante, el manager del equipo, Juan Pablo Molina, el “videoclubsero”, serán los encargados de ganar este partido, cual fantasmas redimidos, para contagiaros de nuevo la ilusión y la magia de la fe inspiradora de “Campo de Sueños”. No os olvidéis de transmitirnos vuestras sensaciones sobre la película, y sobre el episodio, a través de vuestros comentarios. Dejadnos oír vuestra voz, remakers, esa voz sin rostro que nos guía y nos motiva a seguir con nuestro sueño. ---------------------------------------------------------------- RECUERDA QUE PUEDES APOYARNOS A TRAVÉS DEL SISTEMA DE SUSCRIPCIÓN DE FANS ➡️https://www.ivoox.com/support/248910 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Escúchanos también en www.remakealos80.com Recuerda suscribirte a nuestro canal de YouTube para estar al día de nuestros directos https://www.youtube.com/@remakealos80 Síguenos en Instagram y Twitter @Remakealos80 y búscanos en Telegram, te dejamos el enlace a nuestro grupo de para que compartas tus opiniones e interactúes con nosotros: https://t.me/joinchat/GXsRJYMd3wQVBG2v

A biker gang kidnapps an ex-soldier's rock star girlfriend, and he gets revenge through the power of Jim Steinman power ballads and giant hammers in a very silly "Rock 'n' Roll Fable" from the guy who gave us The Warriors. Starring Michael Pare, Diane Lane, Willem Dafoe, Rick Moranis, and Amy Madigan. Written by Walter Hill and Larry Gross. Directed by Walter Hill. Music by Jim Steinman, Ry Cooder, and others.
Welcome back to another episode of the Video Store Podcast! As baseball season is winding down, we've selected four more baseball films to help you get through the post-season, especially if your team isn't looking quite as good as they were at the start. Batting first is 1988's Bull Durham, written and directed by Ron Shelton. This film is a wonderful snapshot of minor league ball in the late 80s and reminds the audience that it's not just about the game. It's about figuring out who you are and what you want out of life, regardless of your occupation. Starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins, it's a drama that will keep you swinging for the fences. Next up is 1989's Major League. A wealthy divorcee obtains the Cleveland Indians in the divorce but wants to relocate the team to a warmer climate. However, the escape clause only triggers if attendance drops below a certain threshold. Stacking the team with nobodies and has-beens, she hopes to move to Miami by the end of the season. When the team learns why they've been dealt the hand they've dealt, they rally to show her what they're really made of. It's a cheeky comedy that will make you stand up and cheer. Batting third in our line up is The Natural from 1984, starring Robert Redford, Glenn Close, Robert Duvall, Kim Basinger, Wilford Brimley, Barbara Hershey, Darren McGavin, and Robert Farnsworth. Adapted from a book of the same name by Bernard Malamud, The Natural is a 4-time Academy Award-nominated film about finding your purpose, even in less-than-ideal circumstances, and knowing that you could be “the greatest that ever was.”On clean-up duty is 1989's Field of Dreams. If you podcast it, they will come, and they hopefully will check out this film. Field of Dreams is about creating space, both literally and figuratively, for the unimaginable. It's about making peace with your past, and moving towards a better future. It's a truly beautiful film, nominated for three Academy Awards, and boasts an incredible cast of performers, including Kevin Costnery, Amy Madigan, Ray Liotta, James Earl Jones, Burt Lancaster, Gaby Hoffmann, and Tim Busfield, among others.

When the night's quiet and you don't care anymore, come on in and stay awhile with a double feature dedicated to antiheroes looking to settle scores and perhaps stoically save their cities: Streets of Fire and The Crow. But before we get there, we work our way through a Blue Plate Special playlist of topics that has us questioning what exactly the collision between Michael Bay and Skibidi Toilet threaten to inflict upon audiences and talk about two new releases, Longlegs and Twisters. Upon finally arriving to our double feature, we find a lot to love in both films' excellent yet divergent exercises in style: listen as we discuss how Walter Hill's 1984 rock and roll fable fits into his larger cinematic oeuvre while celebrating and memorializing the late great star turn of Brandon Lee in Alex Proyas's 1994 gothic epic.

"Field of Dreams," directed by Phil Alden Robinson and released in 1989, is a film that transcends the boundaries of sports and delves into the heart of human experience. Starring Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, James Earl Jones, Ray Liotta, and Burt Lancaster in his final film role, this cinematic gem explores themes of redemption, the power of belief, and the importance of following one's dreams. Set against the backdrop of America's favourite pastime, baseball, "Field of Dreams" is not just a movie about the sport; it's a poignant story about family, reconciliation, and the magic that can happen when you dare to dream.Plot SummaryThe story begins with Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner), a novice Iowa farmer who lives with his wife, Annie (Amy Madigan), and their daughter, Karin (Gaby Hoffmann). Ray is haunted by the unresolved issues with his late father, John Kinsella, a baseball enthusiast who dreamed of becoming a professional player. Ray's peaceful life takes a dramatic turn when he hears a mysterious voice whispering, "If you build it, he will come." Despite the absurdity of the message, Ray interprets it as an instruction to build a baseball diamond in his cornfield, believing it will somehow bring back his father's spirit.Cinematography and VisualsJohn Lindley's cinematography captures the bucolic beauty of the Iowa landscape, transforming it into a timeless, almost mythical place where the impossible becomes possible. The scenes of the baseball diamond at dusk, with its perfectly manicured grass and ethereal lighting, evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The visual contrast between the golden cornfields and the lush green of the baseball field symbolises the intersection of reality and fantasy, grounding the film's magical realism in a tangible world.Character DevelopmentKevin Costner's portrayal of Ray Kinsella is a perfect blend of earnestness and vulnerability. His journey from scepticism to belief is the emotional core of the film. Costner's performance is subtle yet powerful, conveying Ray's internal struggle and ultimate redemption with a quiet intensity. Amy Madigan's Annie is a supportive and fiery counterpart, providing comic relief and grounding the story in reality. Her unwavering belief in Ray's vision is a testament to the strength of their relationship.James Earl Jones delivers a standout performance as Terence Mann, a reclusive author who becomes an unlikely ally in Ray's quest. Initially cynical and disillusioned, Mann's character undergoes a transformation that parallels Ray's, culminating in a poignant speech about the enduring power of baseball. Ray Liotta's portrayal of "Shoeless" Joe Jackson is haunting and enigmatic, embodying the unresolved injustices of the past. In his final role, Burt Lancaster brings a touching grace to the character of Dr. Archibald "Moonlight" Graham, a man whose dreams of playing baseball were never realised.Themes and Symbolism"Field of Dreams" has rich themes that resonate deeply with audiences. The film explores the concept of redemption, not just for individuals but for entire communities. The ghostly baseball players who emerge from the cornfield represent not only the past legends but also the dreams and aspirations that never came to fruition. Ray's act of building the baseball field becomes a form of penance, a way to atone for his estrangement from his father and to honour the unfulfilled dreams of others.The film also delves into belief and the courage to follow one's dreams, even when they seem irrational or impossible. Ray's leap of faith in building the baseball diamond is a powerful metaphor for the risks we take in pursuing our passions. The voice that guides Ray is never fully explained, adding to the film's mystical quality and leaving the interpretation open to the audience.Historical and Cultural Significance"Field of Dreams" is steeped in American cultural history, particularly the lore of baseball. Including "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and the Black Sox Scandal of 1919 adds historical depth to the story. The film pays homage to baseball as a unifying force in American culture, a sport that connects generations and embodies the nation's spirit.The movie's release in 1989 coincided with a renewed interest in baseball films, with other notable releases like "Major League" and "Eight Men Out." However, "Field of Dreams" stands out for its introspective and philosophical approach, appealing to sports fans and those who appreciate good human drama.Impact and LegacyOver three decades since its release, "Field of Dreams" has cemented its status as a classic, continually referenced in popular culture and often cited as one of the greatest sports movies ever made. Its famous line, "If you build it, he will come," has entered the lexicon, symbolising the power of belief and the magic of dreams.The film's impact extends beyond the screen; the actual field built for the movie has become a tourist destination in Dyersville, Iowa, drawing fans worldwide eager to experience the magic. Major League Baseball even hosted a "Field of Dreams" game in 2021, bringing the New York Yankees and the Chicago White Sox to play in a specially constructed stadium near the original film set, further testament to the film's enduring legacy."Field of Dreams" is a film that speaks to the dreamer in all of us. Its blend of magical realism, heartfelt performances, and profound themes creates a timeless story that continues to resonate with audiences of all ages. By intertwining the simple joys of baseball with the complexities of human emotion, it reminds us of the importance of following our dreams and the possibility of finding redemption along the way. Whether you're a die-hard baseball fan or simply a lover of great cinema, "Field of Dreams" is a movie that will leave you believing in the impossible and cherishing the power of dreams.Check out the new website and leave us a message or a voicemail.https://www.borntowatch.com.au/Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcast If you are looking to start a podcast and want a host or get guests to pipe in remotely, look no further than Riverside.fmClick the link below. https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=matthew

Amy Madigan, James Earl Jones and Burt Lancaster (in his final film role) also star. Come join us!!!

Welcome back baseball fans and 80s movie buffs! In this week's episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast, hosts Krissy and Nathan discuss the 1989 fantasy film Field of Dreams with fellow podcaster and filmmaker, Tommy Metz III. This nostalgic baseball movie stars Kevin Costner as Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella, who hears a mysterious voice telling him to build a baseball diamond in his cornfields. After Ray builds the field, the ghosts of Shoeless Joe Jackson and other players banned from baseball for alleged game-fixing in the 1919 World Series emerge from the crops to play ball again. The hosts reflect on Field of Dreams' sentimental exploration of family, redemption, and second chances.Field of Dreams skillfully balances sentimentality with elements of fantasy and the supernatural to avoid becoming overly sappy or precious. The scenes with Shoeless Joe retain a sense of mystery and discovery.The excellent ensemble cast features memorable performances by James Earl Jones, Amy Madigan, and the actors playing the ghostly ballplayers.Comparing Field of Dreams to similar fantasy films like The NaturalExamining the movie's nostalgic, timeless portrayal of the rural MidwestAppreciating the emotive score by James HornerAnalysis of the mysterious voice and its cryptic instructionsDebate over the meaning of Terrence Mann entering the cornfield at the endConclusionField of Dreams continues to captivate audiences more than 30 years later thanks to its winning blend of fantasy, nostalgia, and emotional resonance. Its exploration of how we can heal connections with family and history makes it a lasting classic. Tune in next week when Krissy and Nathan review another unforgettable 80s movie!

A dark and sober look at the consequences of a nuclear war between the US and USSR, full of panic and confusion, and surprisingly light on sensationalism, released at the height of the Cold War. Still one of the highest-rated tv programs of all time, and possibly influential enough to get Reagan to come to the table for armament talks. Starring Jason Robards, JoBeth Williams, John Cullum, Steve Guttenberg, John Lithgow, Amy Madigan, and William Allen Young. Directed by Nicholas Meyer and written by Edward Hume. This episode also contains a clip of Carl Sagan from the debate show that aired after the film: https://youtube.com/shorts/V7R4nqyMMSg?si=QnfecMptNzk3thXv

For the fourth week of our horror film series, we're looking at another collaboration between masters of horror George A. Romero and Stephen King, The Dark Half. This film explores the Jekyll and Hyde story through a seemingly mild-mannered writer and his dark side (Timothy Hutton in a dual role), an unborn twin who takes form to wreak vengeance on those who have tried to silence him. We discuss the excellent screenplay, faithfully adapted by George Romero from Stephen King's novel; Hutton's nuanced portrayal of both Thad and George; Michael Rooker's definitive performance as Sheriff Alan Pangborn; the sparrow swarm special effects; connections to Hitchcock's The Birds; whether Amy Madigan could have single-handedly taken out George Stark; and Stephen King's own alter ego Richard Bachman. Bring your evil twin to our Halloween party and give us a listen!

This week we review Field of Dreams! Starring Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, Frank Whaley, Timothy Busfield, Gaby Hoffmann, Ray Liotta, James Earl Jones, and Burt Lancaster.
If there is one sport that dominated the movies until the 2000s, it's America's Pastime: Baseball. From Pride of the Yankees to The Natural, no sport seemed more cinematic or American than Baseball. Though times have changed and baseball isn't the dominant sport it used to be, it still warms the heart with nostalgia stories of yesteryear. But does Field of Dreams bottle those warm feelings up into a great movie? On this episode of Capital Games Movie Club, Kim Shactman and Wiz discuss the 1989 baseball fantasy film "Field of Dreams," starring Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, James Earl Jones, Ray Liotta and Burt Lancaster, directed by Phil Alden Robinson. Is this a heartwarming trip through America's Pastime or a cloying exercise in saccharine? Find out in our review!

Before the Cubs and Reds can ruin your memory of the film, we give Field of Dreams the full Movie Deep Dive treatment. We settle the really important questions like, "How much money would plowing under farmland to build a baseball field cost a farmer in 1988?" or "Is it have a catch or play catch?" How did they convince Kevin Costner to make a second baseball movie in two years? Who had a better 1989 than Gabby Hoffman? What job did Amy Madigan get offered in a bar in Dubuque during filming? What convinced James Earl Jones to join the cast and why the hell couldn't anybody pronounce Gandil or Cicotte? And why did they let Ray Liotta bat right handed and not have a southern accent? What other sports movie do you know Annie Kinsella's mom from? All this and much, much, more. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/desipio/message
This week, the summer fun continues with the classic 1980s baseball movie, Field of Dreams! Starring Kevin Costner, Ray Liotta, James Earl Jones, Burt Lancaster, Amy Madigan, Gabby Hoffman, and Timothy Busfield, this award-winning film came into theaters in 1989. When Iowa farmer Ray (Kevin Costner) hears a mysterious voice one night in his cornfield saying "If you build it, he will come," he feels the need to act. Despite taunts of lunacy, Ray builds a baseball diamond on his land, supported by his wife, Annie (Amy Madigan). Afterward, the ghosts of great players start emerging from the crops to play ball, led by "Shoeless" Joe Jackson. But, as Ray learns, this field of dreams is about much more than bringing former baseball greats out to play. Megan talks about watching the film in black and white on a trip to California while itching away at chicken pox, and Steve discusses his love of baseball and pretending to use chewing tobacco while chomping on our nostalgic snack for the week, Big League Chew. The film was a nostalgic hit with Baby Boomers, as it hearkened back to the 1960s and called them to follow their dreams. Did two Gen-Xers love the film just as much? Listen to find out!

Directed by Walter Hill (So yes there will be fog) and starring Michael Paré, a 19 year old Diane Lane, Rick Moranis, Amy Madigan and a very young looking Willem Dafoe. This was a strange blend of genres that also has a fantastic soundtrack. If you like your action dark, foggy, with killer musical numbers you may just love this movie. Ah...the 80's.

This episode begins an irregular series that will take a look back at a minor cinematic phenomenon that happened more often in the 1980s than in any other decade: a one-time-only distribution company. ----more---- We talk about the 1980 Tinto Brass erotic historical drama Caligula, starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, and Peter O'Toole, and the 1985 Bud Yorkin family drama Twice in a Lifetime, featuring Gene Hackman, Ellen Burstyn, Ann-Margret, Amy Madigan, Ally Sheedy, and Brian Dennehy.
After some unfortunate violence in the real world, the film, THE HUNT (2020), was pulled from Blumhouse's future releases. It stayed in limbo for a bit, before reappearing on their theatrical release schedule for March 2020. Unfortunately it was the very week that COVID-19 became the pandemic that it was, and as a result, the movie tanked at the box office. Finally after an off and on release schedule on VOD, the film arrived to HBO Max where folks could finally take a look at the controversy behind the film and judge for themselves. After a group of privileged elites discussing on text the murdering of so-called online “deplorables”, the conversation mistakenly is leaked and goes viral. After their careers are ruined and all are cancelled, they decide to kidnap the Twitter trolls that brought them down. The hostages are brought to a remote location where they must fight for their lives if they want to survive. THE HUNT was directed by Craig Zobel (Z FOR ZACHARIAH (2015)) and written by Nick Cuse and Damon Lindelof. In its ensemble cast, the stars include Betty Gilpin, Hillary Swank, Emma Roberts, and Amy Madigan. Dark Discussions takes a look at this interesting film and are joined by actor Dan Lench (CIRCLE (2015)).
The tables have finally turned. Join us for another episode of our spinoff/bonus podcast: The Catch Up. This time around, Nelson watches the 1989 Kevin Costner classic, Field of Dreams, for the first time. Will he go the distance? Listen and find out!
