Episode description
This week, we’re taking a nostalgic trip back to the 80s to explore two Space Opera movies inspired by iconic kids’ toylines. We’re joined by critic and host of the Not Just For Kids podcast, Russell Bailey, to discuss Transformers: The Movie (1986) and Masters of the Universe (1987). These films brought beloved toys to life on the big screen, combining epic space battles with larger-than-life heroes.
Join us as we break down the spectacle, the nostalgia, and the impact these films had on a generation of sci-fi fans and toy enthusiasts alike."
