In the early 1980s, news emerged of an ambitious-sounding sci-fi adventure that used cutting-edge CGI. Then it vanished. We look at what happened to Spaceblasters.

A reminder of Julian Dicks’ West Ham testimonial in 2000.
After a flurry of wild challenges, the friendly with Bilbao erupts into chaos with a 17-man brawl.
A fairytale ending for The Terminator…
A reminder of the days when you could be a top-flight footballer AND advertise your services as an electrician in the matchday programme…

So here he is in 1988, inexplicably wearing number 3, winning the Bundesliga Goal of the Season.
Never did like to stay on his feet.
It’s the 25th anniversary of one of the all-time great transfer rumours…

At first he dazzled with his skills in bootcut jeans and loafers.
Then when he got on the pitch, he was a true Fenomeno…
If you thought an 11-year-old me would fall hook, line and sinker for a Steve McMahon quote on an advert for Hi-Tec boots…
…then you’d be 100% correct.

There was a proposal in the late 1950’s to obtain samples of Moon rock by detonating a nuclear warhead on the Moon. The rock would be blown into space and would fall to Earth as meteorites. These would apparently be easy to locate as they’d have been so radioactive 😏

34/34
When shooting the moments of Kimble running through the woods, Ford tore ligaments in his leg. The limp that Kimble has in the film was real, and Ford held off getting surgery until filming wrapped.
27/34
The train crash scene was shot for real. The moment when Kimble jumps from the train was achieved using rear-projection, but that is an actual train hitting a bus. The wreckage is still in the North Carolina mountains, and has become a tourist attraction.
26/34
The St. Patrick’s Day parade scene was shot during the actual parade. Ford and Lee Jones went into the crowds without any rehearsals, followed by a small camera crew. The hat that Ford picked up wasn’t a prop, Ford improvised it for the scene.
22/34
The dam jump was shot in two different locations. A real dam in North Carolina was used with Harrison Ford tied to a wire. The tunnels of the dam were a set, built in an old steel factory. There were six Harrison Ford dummies made for the jump, costing around $10,000 each.
