Episode 6: RAD with Hollywood Mike Miranda

It’s Hollywood Mike Miranda... up in the fort with Hollywood Mike Miranda!

The Movie Fort is back and I’m still pinching myself that this episode happened because BMX legend Hollywood Mike Miranda came up to the fort for a screening of the 1986 film RAD. 

Out of all the classic movies to come out of the 1980s, arguably no film has the cult following that RAD continues to have to this day, no matter what millennial pop culture writers claim. Yes, it was a box office bomb but found a thriving second life in video stores as millions of BMX obsessed kids around the country made it one of the top VHS rentals for several years running. (Back in the day, video rentals were charted like The Weekly Top 40 and RAD perpetually hovered near the top.) However, as VHS tapes gave way to DVDs and video stores were rendered extinct by streaming, RAD became a collector’s item that spawned a thriving bootleg market. Due various rights issues, it was never officially available on DVD until this year when a limited edition  4K restoration was released. (It immediately sold out and discs are going for $100+ on eBay.) 

But, in even better news, RAD is now available for digital rental or purchase on most streaming services. Click here to rent or buy on Amazon and watch along with us. 

Finding a copy of RAD on the shelf at your local video store was an ‘80s kid’s version of the winning the lottery because it was always rented out. 

The Two Greatest Showdowns of the ‘80s: Daniel LaRusso vs Johnny Lawrence and Cru Jones vs Bart Taylor.  While RAD remains a picture perfect time capsule when it comes to everything that was so ‘80s about the ‘80s, what makes it unique in the realm of sports movies is that outside of Cru, played by Bill Allen, and his rivals on Team Mongoose, 1984 Olympic Gold Medalist Bart Conner and twin brothers Chad and Carey Hayes, the rest of the Helltrack field is filled out by the top BMX racers of the era playing themselves.  And Hollywood Mike Miranda was one of them. 

The Two Most Iconic Mustache Duos of the ‘80s: Thomas Magnum and his red Ferrari and Hollywood Mike Miranda and his pink Hutch. 

I’ve been fortunate to be friends with Hollywood for several years and the fact that he came over to our house to watch RAD still makes my brain short circuit as I write this. We’d been talking about doing a screening for months and it was such a memorable night that I want build a time machine to go back to 1986 and tell my younger self what we’re up to in 2020.  Before we fired up RAD, Hollywood and I watched the Dodgers beat the Angels. Along the way, we crushed a pizza and drank a few RAD themed amber ales from Alosta Brewing Company, a local brewery. And when those ran out, we may have drank a Modelo or two. 

The description on the can is a chef’s kiss of perfection and the koozie is one that RAD fans will appreciate.  When it came to the main event of watching RAD, Hollywood spun some fantastic tales about making film and what it was like to be in a movie directed by Hal Needham (you might know him as the director of Smokey and the Bandit and a slew of other classics).  

We also talked about being at ground zero for the creation of BMX when he was a kid growing up in California’s Inland Empire and the thrill of becoming friends with his childhood hero Evel Knievel. (Yes, that Evel Knievel. As if there’s another one.) 

And Hollywood’s story about Shaq and Bart Conner? It really happened.
