Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior - Caravan Of Garbage

Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior allowed director George Miller to take the concepts and character from the 1979 original and really put the boot in. That meant a bigger myth, bigger stunts, bigger men, more butts cut out of leather trousers. And the result was a lot of the iconic imagery we know of the character even today. Forty years on it still holds up and it's influence has been felt across multipe other media propeties. MAD MAX. Mad Max. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review SUBSCR...

Mad Max - Caravan Of Garbage

King Kong 1933 - Caravan Of Garbage

We're going back to where it all began, the original King Kong movie from 1933. It's influence is still felt to this very day with it's unique story, amazing use of stop motion coupled with rear projection and a symphonic score to accompany the iconic imagery.

The Real Ghostbusters - Caravan Of Garbage

After the success of Ghostbusters 1984 but before the mediocrity of Ghostbusters 2 there was The REAL Ghostbusters, an animated childrens show that aimed to keep the series alive. And also sell toys to children. The story behind it's creation is facinating unlike the show itself which is not great.
