Days of Thunder - Hello Movies, My Old Friend Ep. 201

To round out our month of premieres, Ray and Rob are back with a brand-new season of HELLO MOVIES, MY OLD FRIEND! They’ve decided to quench their need for speed by revisiting Tony Scott’s 1990 racing drama DAYS OF THUNDER! This piece of sports nostalgia centers on Cole Trickle, a hot shot rookie who is entering the world of stock car racing by joining a new team put together by car dealership tycoon, Tim Daland. To lead this team, Tim brings on retired crew chief Harry Hodges who carries the death of his former driver close to his heart. When Cole’s star begins to rise and is himself struck with tragedy, he has to overcome his fears to get back in the driver’s seat and win the biggest race of his career. Perhaps most known for launching the real-life relationship of its co-stars Tom Cruise (TOP GUN, RISKY BUSINESS) and Nicole Kidman (TO DIE FOR, BIRTH), Days of Thunder is also the re-teaming of the crew behind one of the biggest hits of the 80s, TOP GUN! With a stellar supporting cast including Robert Duvall (APOLOCLYPSE NOW, THE GODFATHER), Michael Rooker (CLIFFHANGER, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY) and Randy Quaid (NATIONAL LAMPOON’S CHRISTMAS VACATION, THE LAST DETAIL), can this slice of 90’s nostalgia live up to Ray and Rob’s memories and kick this season off on the right foot? Tune in to find out! Music: Jay You Voice: Rob Morgan Intermission: Voice: Jeremy Catarelli Music: Jay You
