Happy Thanksgiving! We hope everyone is staying cozy and catching up with Stranger Things. We've got quite a bit of eye-bleach in the shop if it gets too scary!

Every time I get on the Blue Line out of O'hare, I wonder if I'm going to leave the train car with a British Accent.

Well, the FAA is limiting flights which is certainly going to throw everything into chaos - nobody would blame you for staying home for the holidays this year & binge watching all of your favorites on VHS!

We are very happy that a $1.5 billion dollar transit bill was passed that will keep the CTA running, and that Sandra Bullock won't be out of a job.

"While You Were Sleeping" is a very good, Chicago based rom com featuring the CTA, the northern suburbs & Sandy Cohen from The OC. Definitely a good contender for family movie night!
Available now in the shop!

The Anaheim Angels will make it to the World Series one day, we just know it!!!

Angels in the Outfield is a VHS classic! Starring Danny Glover, Christopher Lloyd, a very young Joseph Gordon-Levitt, with some great appearances from Matthew McConaughey, Tony Danza and Adrien Brody. This film is a remake of the 1951 movie of the same name.

Did you know that "The Stepford Wives" (2004) was adapted from the 1972 satirical horror book of the same name, written by Rosemary's Baby author Ira Levin? (So much trivia in just one sentence!)

The book is just as creepy as the movie - even more so, in our opinion! A perfect Halloween treat without too much gore. Or any, really.

Marisa Tomei won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in the 1992 film "My Cousin Vinny". Not only is she an incredible actress, but her style is on point throughout this entire film! It's always a treat when we find this VHS tape in the wild.

On this day twenty-five years ago, Bedazzled was released! This remake of the 1967 British comedy of the same name and stars Brendan Frasier & Elizabeth Hurley. While we don't have this in stock right now, it's definitely worth a re-watch if you can find it on streaming or at your local library as a DVD!
