Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Night of the Comet, Commando, Phantom of the Mall, Innerspace, Chopping Mall, Terminator 2 etc...

Finally, I watched Gremlins—a movie I somehow missed until now, even though it left fingerprints all over my life. See, when this came out, I wasn’t allowed to watch it. My mom had a strict no-horror policy. But I found the next best thing in the school library: the novelization. I devoured it in one night. So I knew Gremlins through words, not images. And I loved every page.…

We're celebrating with a new still of me behind the scenes on my Renfield Collection shop: www.renfieldcollection.com/product-page...
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched a movie I really dug and thought I'd find a nice gif set to reblog on tumblr. That movie's InnerSpace, wherein a tiny Dennis Quaid is injected into Martin Short's ass, and, uh, it has an audience!
positive · AI labelView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #218 "Innerspace" (Joe Dante/1987) Joe Dante's absolutely fantastic sci-fi/comedy film inspired by The Fantastic Voyage. Seriously fun stuff here folks, check it out.
positive · AI labelView post →I had forgotten how much this film feels like one of the great 1980s high concept action flicks. It reminds me a lot of INNERSPACE, in fact, in its ingenuity but also its surprising emotional stakes.

A new still, with custom autographs available from moi, is up in my Renfield Collection site! www.renfieldcollection.com/product-page...
neutral · AI labelView post →@shoutstudios.bsky.social or @arrowvideo.bsky.social would be perfect candidates to get this movie on a collector’s 4K. Shout! released Matinee and Arrow released Innerspace. WB has a 35mm filmout negative as it was initially distributed on film. There’s a possible chance.

neutral · AI labelView post →Innerspace: My favorite Dante movie, by a mile. The new Arrow 4K is extraordinary! Maverick: Caught the IMAX rerelease; still rocks! Flintstones: Sam Raimi was in this monstrosity?! Wild Things: This has, quite possibly, the best end credits EVER. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday #Filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →When people talk about Joe Dante, Gremlins is first on the list of his memorable films. But Innerspace should definitely be second.
positive · AI labelView post →Back the fuck up! He was in INNERSPACE? I gotta rewatch that movie…

neutral · AI labelView post →To say that I’m excited about this would be a massive understatement. Joe Dante’s work is so important to me, and INNERSPACE was my first movie of his. Huge thanks to @neilsnowdon.bsky.social and @arrowvideo.bsky.social for a dream come true!
positive · AI labelView post →Watched Innerspace with a fellow autistic. Now feels like it’s about a neurodiverse man who gains an inner neurotypical voice to guide him. Making him better able to navigate social situations like meetings and romances, read subtexts more clearly, and manage anxiety.
neutral · AI labelView post →When Carly Rae Jepsen sang, "You're... Stuck in my body," this was a reference to the situation in the Joe Dante film Innerspace (1987)

neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight’s movie was InnerSpace (1987) and it still holds up. Don’t forget it won a Visual Effects Oscar. Also great car game and a show stealing performance from Robert Picardo. One of my childhood favourites and pleased it’s still a great romp.
positive · AI labelView post →Ghostbusters II is one of a small class of movies released in "letterbox" when shown on TV. Just as "The Color Purple" and "Innerspace" I dunno WHY (maybe Ivan Reitman fought for it? Spielberg sure did, as did Joe Dante, I just dunno why THIS movie)

positive · AI labelView post →My grandmother recorded Innerspace from a free “Viewer’s Choice” pay per view weekend and we wore out the tape watching it growing up. My now wife also watched it far too much as a kid (an avowed Dante fan also obsessed with The ‘Burbs) and the movie was one of the first things we bonded over.

positive · AI labelView post →Gonna do a movie marathon that’s just movies where the premise became a stock plot for animated shows. (ie Innerspace or Weekend at Bernie’s.)
neutral · AI labelView post →I remember watching INNERSPACE a while back and in a film where Martin Short is carrying a miniaturized Dennis Quaid, the most unbelievable thing in it was a Supermarket Clerk could afford a nice apartment and Cruise Tickets.

neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatched Innerspace (1987). First saw it in the cinema. A comedy take on Fantastic Voyage by one of the great directors of unusual films, Joe Dante. #film #movies
positive · AI labelView post →Joe Dante directed Gremlins 1 and 2, The Burbs, Matinee, Innerspace, Piranha, and more, but before all that, he made THE MOVIE ORGY, an experimental mashup movie that feels like watching tv in your basement on a snow day while you steal your parents’ alcohol. It’s great.

Starring Dennis Quaid, Martin Short, Meg Ryan (and of course Robert Picardo & Dick Miller) this one is so fun! Tell me your memories of this wild flick! #innerspace youtube.com/shorts/1HsIB...
positive · AI labelView post →Will post some photos when the disc officially releases in April, but this one was a dream to get to be a part of. Innerspace was a family go-to movie for my brother and I growing up – and a childhood favourite of my wife too. Sometimes work is cool!
positive · AI labelView post →For Saturday retro film night, my kids and I watched Innerspace. In all the times I've seen this film, this was the first time I noticed the mute villain unscrew a corkscrew attachment from his bionic arm and replace it with a buzzing vibrator. Blink and you miss it but it's there.
positive · AI labelView post →I think the first 60s song that I discovered and loved by myself (as opposed to having it thrust upon me by other people) was Twisting The Night Away, as featured in the movie Innerspace. It was such a thrill when I grew up and discovered that the Twisting guy had a bunch of other amazing songs.

neutral · AI labelView post →In Honey I Shrunk the Kids and Innerspace they actually did shrink everyone. There was a CIA plot to sneak spies into USSR with the tech and they let movie studios use it because it sounded cool
neutral · AI labelView post →I love Martin Short, have you seen Innerspace? Great movie!
positive · AI labelView post →INNERSPACE debuted OTD in 1987, a comedic reworking of FANTASTIC VOYAGE; miniaturized Dennis Quaid (Tuck Pendleton, great movie name) is mistakenly injected into Martin Short ("I'm POSSESSED!"). Well-done & a SFX Oscar winner, but the ad campaign missed the mark. @thejoedante.bsky.social directs!
neutral · AI labelView post →Do they plan on moving Unifi OS beyond just network? Because we run Access, Protect, Connect and InnerSpace, too.. Would be nice to have a PC setup as a controller for the cost of their Dream Machine Pro Max etc.
