What happens when you sometimes rewatch a comedy 30 or 40 years later? Perhaps with a younger audience. Do the jokes still hold up? Can some of those jokes now be considered offensive or insensitive?
Do social and/or moral norms change through the years? Or do we, as the audience, mature emotionally with time.
Join Carlos today at GeekFest Rants as we look back at some of our favorite 70's, 80's, and 90's comedies and see if they are now considered outdated.

Join us today at GeekFest Rants as Carlos discusses his attempts at custom Kenner Star Wars figures creating.
We'll cover some of the easiest figures to customize like X-Wing Luke(without helmet), Hoth Han(without hood), to more difficult ones like Battle Damage Vader, Mon Cal Officer, and many more.
If Kenner never made the figure, chancer are you can make it yourself.

Hey kids! Well, what a wacky time right now huh? Man, I don't know what to say about anything going on but what I do know how to do is make a list so that's what I did...
I am a huge fan of my dude Kevin Costner so this list came together pretty easily. Make note, these are MY favorite Kevin Costner movies not what some folks would think are the BEST movies Kev ever made...
Also, this was recorded pre-election so it is free of any sort of election thoughts... That's prolly pretty refreshing right about now..
enjoy.

As we near the 2020 Presidential election, join Carlos today at GeekFest Rants as he recommends a number of films(and a TV show) to prep you for the issues that dominate this historic election.
The films included are, All the President's Men, The Manchurian Candidate, The Handmaid's Tale(TV show), The Birth of a Nation, Jonestown the Life and Death of Peoples Temple, and Judgement at Nuremberg. Plus he recaps the films he suggested back in the 2016 election.
