Okay, here is the soundtrack for the previously mentioned classic Streets of Fire. Ten tracks zipped up with some cover/disc art for your aural enjoyment! Hits include, but are not limited to, Dan Hartman’s “I Can Dream About You” which topped the Hot 100 at #6 in 1984. Get it while it’s hot (as in before the file disappears)!
Streets of Fire OST (RapidShare)
The latest edition of this fantastical mancast has now hit the streets, nearly coming in at a staggering two hours! Overkill… or Octoberkill!? Either way you slice it, this second chapter in our Month of Madness is a fittingly full feast of frights, freaks and fictitious fiends. So sit down for a spell as we weave tales of The Orange box, Silent Hill, The Monster Club, and then some! As always, fangs for stopping by.
Walter Hill should have been given a grant by the government to ensure that he always has funding to make some rowdy rock and roll street flicks each year. I finally got a non-shattered copy of the DVD and was completely blown away. What a classic. Excellent soundtrack, great cast (Diane Lane is too hot) and a lot of straight up movie-making passion.
I was looking up lead-badass Michael ParĂ© after the movie ended, because I haven’t really seen a ton of his movies. Well, it looks like he’s now firmly planted in Uwe Boll hell! Yay?
But the most disappointing post-film tidbit was this excerpt from the Wikipedia page:
Streets of Fire was intended to be the first in a trilogy of action films starring Michael ParĂ© as Tom Cody. When the film was released in the summer of 1984 (after some delays), the science-fiction film magazine Starlog stated a rumor that the proposed titles of the two sequels would be The Return of Tom Cody and The Far City. However, the film’s eventual failure at the box office[2] put an end to the project.
I wonder how much the rights to this series would cost. I think Bigwig Productions could rock a helluva Tom Cody joint!
Honestly, is there anything not to love about this? Weng Weng is a 2 foot 9 crime fighter in the only place where something like that would work: The Phillipines. Carry on you, the smallest dang detective in the galaxy! I love you my Weng Weng!

Though I shamelessly stole this concept from Ectomo, what better place than the JLR to get your weekly cartoon fix, as programmed by… ME! Today we have some light viewing that will titillate the senses and perfectly compliment your cereal and/or Pop Tarts.
Update: Well it sure does fit on the page well!
