Close Encounters Of The Third Kind Movie 2017 - Retro Crunch

Hey guys, Welcome back to RETRO CRUNCH, the nostalgia show that is all about Current Pop Culture, Movies, Music, and Games that relates to all things 70s, 80s, and 90s!
Close Encounters was originally released November 16, 1977 just months after Star Wars, so this November would mark its 40th anniversary and it is certainly possible that they plan to re release the original to be back in theaters for the celebration.
No details yet, as SONY seems to be keeping why the hell they put out the video a mystery, but I hope they do re-release, cause I would love to relive this classic movie in theaters.
There's a newly discovered photo of Amelia Earhart that might answer the questions of what happened when her plane disappeared 80 years ago while attempting to fly around the world.
This photo that surfaced shows what could be Earhart and her navigator Noonan on a dock while under Japanese custody in the Martial Islands. And also in the picture is a boat towing what appears to be the remains of her airplane.
Over the years there's been much speculation as to what happened to Earhart, but corroborating reports of Earhart first being rescued, captured, and dying at the hands of the Japanese for spying are not seeming so far fetched anymore.
Theres a special about Earhart on whats been found that airs July 9th, on The History Channel so it may be worth watching and Im going to continue to follow this story for any updates and will link to the reports on the photo down below for anyone interested.
And next up, we found a viral video released by Sony's YouTube Channel just days ago on World UFO Day that suggests that we may be getting a re-release of Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, in all its 1977 glory.
Also in TV news, looks like FX is producing a new show called SNOWFALL that’s about the 80s CRACK epidemic. This one looks interesting, if only to see how well FX can replicate that old 80s vibe.
And onto RETRO Teck - if your one of those that use facebook and hate seeing ads you don’t care about, well there's a App for the chrome browser that will change all the Facebook ads into RETRO ads from the 80s. Its called SOCIAL ADS, VINTAGE EDITION and you can get it for IOS or ANDROID.
And for those that don’t know - SPAMs just hit its 80s birthday anniversary and although I cant stand the taste of it, my mom made me eat it as a kid and I spent a few years in Hawaii where they eat it like candy.
Also, just for you SPAM loving types - Hormel put out a RETRO recipe list and im gonna link to that just for you guys! So, Bon Apetit!
And Last thing today, being a Huge Spiderman fan and loving its creator Stan Lee, I just wanted to highlight something important to me and I hope its important to you as well. Stan lost his wife Joan Lee this week after 67 years of marriage and I just want to post a few links down below for you guys to check out so you can see what a wonderful woman she was to him.
I lost my Mother and Father this last year and its been really tough getting through it , so I can only imagine how devastating it must be to lose someone you spent practically your entire adult life with.
So, Take care of yourself Stan, were all thinking about you.
And I think that’s all the RETRO news I have for you this time my fellow retroheads!
