Movie Meltdown - Episode 547

This episode we discuss the dystopian, near-future film... Prayer of the Rollerboys. Directed by Rick King and starring Corey Haim, Patricia Arquette and Christopher Collet - this science fiction story shows us a version of America that maybe a little closer to the world we live in than we are comfortable with. Oh yeah… and there’s lots and lots of rollerblading!

And while we have mist-induced flashbacks of all of our childhood TV favorites, we also cover… The Clyde Frog Show, the entire fall of civilization, Solarbabies, Godzilla, we want our sexy bunny, 3D glasses, trying to explain V to someone, shelf expansion, getting beat with flip flops,  Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man, Batman, renting a VCR, you’re playing with their little corpses, zoot suit pants, Super Mario Bros., Mark Pellegrino, he was always getting hurt, without a cup holder, Fritz the Cat, The Transformers: The Movie, chain link-covered van, a skate-by shooting, The Bloodhound Gang, eating planets, I partially blame Hackers, who saw a blade-off happening, a black and white TV, Tiny Toons and Animaniacs, greed is good, Ultraman, Axl Rose on Scooby-Doo, Double Dragon, you better not be down there watching cartoons, Joel McCrea, with fringe, adjusting your rabbit ears, the rise of Serpentor, economic collapse, Kung Fu Theater, Space Jam and there’s a reason all the skaters made fun of rollerbladers. 

Spoiler Alert: I guess you can spoil "Prayer of the Rollerboys"? If so, we probably do. You better watch it beforehand just to be sure. 

“It’s such a weird mixture of like total post-apocalyptic craziness… and then regular run-of-the-mill stuff. It’s insanity.”

Eine junge Frau tanzt auf Rollschuhen in perfektem Einklang mit der Musik auf dem Tempelhofer Feld in Berlin. Die Farben des Videos sind intensiv und schön sommerlich - der Himmel ist strahlend blau, die Tänzerin trägt ein gelbes Outfit. Dieses Video ging im Sommer 2020 auf Instagram viral und wurde selbst von Stars wie Alicia Keys oder Timbaland geteilt. Inzwischen hat es fast 3 Millionen Aufrufe. Der Star des Videos ist die Berliner Jamskaterin Oumi Janta. Jamskating ist Tanzen auf Rollschuhen mit Elementen aus Breakdance, HipHop oder Eiskunstlauf sowie der Improvisation aus dem eigenen Repertoire. In dieser Folge Sportgeflüster habe ich mich mit Oumi Janta darüber unterhalten, wie es ist, über Nacht berühmt zu werden. Wie geht es ihr mit diesem plötzlichen Erfolg und was will sie nun mit ihrer Reichweite bewegen? Außerdem gibt Oumi wertvolle Tipps für alle, die gerne Jamskaten lernen wollen und lässt an den Weisheiten teilhaben, die sie in den letzten Monaten gelernt hat!

Chris Edwards lived more by the age of 20 than most people do in a lifetime.  He was a pro athlete at age 14, dropped out of high school a year later and became the face of the fastest growing sport on the planet.  Chris was in the movies, on TV, was the first to go big on ramps, first to grind a rail, and, as far as I know, the first to have 6 biological children and 4 wives.  Chris and I talk the rise and fall on the podcast

Chris Haffey is part athlete, part stuntman, part survivor.  He’s a professional rollerblader who started getting recognition for his skating when the industry was at its peak and became one of the top skaters in the world  as the bottom was dropping out.  While his peers were leaving the sport to find other ways to support themselves, Chris landed on the Nitro Circus, touring arenas across the globe with a motley crew of bad-asses.
