I want to make this a little bit interesting, so I thought we'd have a bit of a contest. I want your best BMX photo! Now, I realize there is no way that I can confirm that you are actually into the photo, but bonus points for trying! I'm looking for bright colors, awesome 80's gear and hair, and maybe a bit of action. Let's see what you guys can come up with. I'll post the best photos and pick a winner on Wednesday, March 16th. As a reminder, here's the package you're going for:
Just as a goal, below in the gallery is what the team from the movie look like, let's try and beat that photo!
BMX Bandits
Brain Trenchard-Smith, 1983
"If We'd Grown Up In Australia,
BMX Bandits Would Have Been Our Goonies."Quentin Tarantino The future Academy Award® winner made her movie debut at 16 years old as the pouffy-haired star of this action/comedy about a cache of stolen walkie-talkies, three BMX-riding friends, and the ruthless bank robbers who will pursue them through every graveyard, shopping mall, construction site and waterpark in New South Wales, Australia. It's a high-flying ride to adventure filled with wild stunts, cool BMX outfits, creepy innuendo, cheezy synth music, an obnoxious fat kid, and gobs of fast & furious fun. John Ley (Mad Max), David Argue (Razorback) and Bryan Marshall (The Long Good Friday) co-star - with thrilling cinematography from future Oscar® winner John Seale (The English Patient) - in this Down Under '80s cult classic from 'Ozsploitation' master Brian Trenchard-Smith, the legendary director of Turkey Shoot, Dead End Drive-In and Stunt Rock!
