*The Warlock opens the door to his lair. He’s wearing a Warriors vest, black wifebeater, blue jeans, white sneakers and gargoyle shades. He’s holding a Mega Pint of Dr. Pepper*
W: Welcome to my lair…welcome I don’t think so, but enter. Enter my lair if you dare. I’m your host The Warlock.
*Warlock shoots fire into the sky before walking inside*
W: Today is a sad day here at the Realm as actress Olivia Newton-John has passed away at the age of 72. In honor of her I will be taking a look at one of her famous movie roles that I’ve wanted to see for a long time but for an entirely different reason.

N: Grease?
W: No, we already did that 5 years ago for Michael Biehn Appreciation Month. I’m talking about the 1980 musical XANADU!
N: What is that?
W: That’s what I’m going to find out. The reason I’ve always wanted to see this is the actor Michael Beck made it big in 1979 for his role in the movie The Warriors, hence my vest. The problem was in 1980 he was in XANADU and his career never recovered. On top of that, an old Gene Kelly is in this too. So how bad is this movie that it killed Michael Beck’s career so shortly after it started really? That’s what we’re about to find out.
N: So this is a bad movie?
W: That’s the best part, I don’t know. It could be good, it may not be. All I know is Michael Beck never had another hit movie. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman as we honor the late, great Olivia Newton John with XANADU.
