Hey, kids. Remember arcades? We sure do. Good times, great games. Go ahead and call us nostalgic. We don't care. Since there aren't many arcades left anymore, we decided to turn to the movies to relive the glory days of our youth. So fill those pockets with quarters and come along with us on a little trip down memory lane, soundtracked by the golden sounds of The Sweethearts with "Burnin Through The Nite."
