Episode 18 - Season 01 Wrap-Up

And with this episode we reach the end of our first season.

This has been an interesting project for us so far. We started Cannon Cruisers purely for a project that celebrated a forgotten era of film and ended up surprised at what we ran into. Movies were a very different beast back in the 1980s than they are now. As pieces of pure entertainment, good or bad, there was very little about this season that wasn't fun to do on a least some level.

We ended up seeing a lot of different films which helped put this time period in perspective. Season ended up covering Cannon's genre films from 1980 to 1984, almost half the decade. This was because Cannon mostly focused on re-releasing foreign films for much of this time or co-producing with other studios while having little involvement themselves. But future seasons should be much different. As of season 2 we'll be covering each year in a season until we reach then end of the '80s. As you can imagine, this means there will be many more movies to cover.

And yes, this is confirmation that Cannon Cruisers will be continuing. Season 2 should begin in March after a quick break and catch up on other projects we are working on.

But until then we leave you with our season wrap up episode where we ramble unedited for an hour and say a lot of things we probably regretted later.

Enjoy, and we'll see you in season 2!
