Strap your rocket pack to your back as NostalgiaCast '90s Palooza takes to the skies with THE ROCKETEER, Joe Johnston's serial cliffhanger comic book throwback from 1991. Billy Campbell, Jennifer Connelly, and a scenery-gnawing Timothy Dalton star in this Indiana Jones-ish adventure that crashed and burned at the box office, and critic / Disney-phile Marianne Paluso brings her patented good humor and cinema savvy to our discussion about how the movie soared to the top of the superhero ranks. 

092 - The Rocketeer with Jason Croxon

When you combine certain ingredients such as a dashing hero, a sultry starlet, and a dastardly villain you have the necessary components for a great tale of heroism.

Joining us for The Rocketeer is Jason from The CrossFit Bath Podcast
