Motion Pictures Eighteen & Anxious With A Bonus Feature

Cool.

 

i find that funny it was usually paired with pornography, gotta wonder why it never made it to the screens for younger audiences.

 

Well, I guess I know what I'll be doing tonight.

 

Classic. On a side note......Bing Russell (the used car salesman) was Kurt Russell's dad.

 

Damned interesting. Sounds like illegal money. Pretty cool story and nice work! Will check it out.

 

18 and anxious with a bon...
Whaaaat? Oh.

Thanks. Cool. Will definitely give it a look-see.

 

Thanks

 

Good thing we got snow and shit weather. Spoiler alert...



Just kidding. Watch it guys n gals, 50s mush at it's finest. Better than a lot of em just like Ryan said, but don't take that for too much. Cars were kool too.

 

And the Documentary where Bing and Kurt owned the Portland Mavericks baseball team is even a better watch.

 

And Kurt Russell was a car salesman in the movie Used Cars !

 

Absolutely, just excellent!

 

The ole "what goes around, comes around".

 

I've always thought "Teenage Thunder" was the best of the 50's hot rod genre.
Good storyline and fairly decent acting.
Seems like it was usually double-billed with "Carnival Rock"

I liked what I saw. I’m fan of the old hot rod teen movie genre. What’s not to like?

 

That one has Robert Fuller from Emergency! fame (Dr. Kelly Bracket).

 

I asked on this thread about the A roadster, was it ever featured in any of the publications of the period? Looks like the windshield posts were chopped and the windshield dropped straight onto the top of the filled tank.

 

I watched this and realized that I've become the cranky father figure and not the car crazed kid.

 

Teen Age Thunder


Hello,

Nice old cars hot rods and drag racing cars, in the movie. I liked the final scene that puts an “old guy” in the driver’s seat for some fun times.

It is a great final expression that we all once had or used when looking back over our shoulders, when stopped. YRMV

Some expressions that last forever:

 

Crazy Teenagers!

 

Don't keep us waiting Ryan, give us your review of Eighteen & Anxious too!

 

i remember one where the kids got their kicks by bashing each other's hub caps at high speed. crappy movie, but great-sounding, built flatheads!

 

KOOOOOOOOL

 

Great movie. Those were some pretty neat cars. Lots of memories from the house and neighborhood. In 1957 I was only 11, so that would have been “off limits” by the Mother that knew everything. I do remember sneaking and seeing Hot Rod Girl and another epic when they came out. We would get a free movie pass after School Safety Patrol drill once a month. Ride the bus downtown from drill, eat at the Krystal (10 for $1 burgers) and catch a movie. Good times!
