	Maz Article: Reissue Targetmaster Hot Rod (Collection #13)
		Hot Rod was of course first introduced to fans in the 1986 feature film Transformers: The Movie and was the main character in the film.
		Hot Rod was then reissued in the US by Hasbro but he was renamed Rodimus Major and now Takara have released what is probably the ultimate Hot Rod reissue, the seventh main incarnation, the Collection #13 reissue of Targetmaster Hot Rod.
		Hot Rod's robot mode has always been very show-accurate and has had personality due to the design of his facial features, the wide shoulders, the chrome guns/exhausts and the yellow wing on his back.

	Hot Rod Repaint
		For starters, he's entirely the wrong color; the Hot Rod in The Transformers: the Movie is more on the pink side of magenta, rather than the dark reddish color Rodimus Prime was in the series.
		Using my character design for Hot Rod as a reference, repainting all the maroon parts with magenta.
		For quite some time, I've never been entirely pleased with the Hot Rod toy.

	Road Films
		Although the road trip in George Lucas' American Graffiti (1973) wasn't very extensive, the entire film was about hot-rod drag-stripping down the main street of a small California town during one summer's night.
		Road films have been a staple of American films from the very start, and have ranged in genres from westerns, comedies, gangster/crime films, dramas, and action-adventure films.
		Victor Fleming's The Wizard of Oz (1939) was a quintessential 'road' film as Dorothy Gale (Judy Garland) took an odyssey from her drab, black and white Kansas 'home' to the wonderful land of Oz to learn more about herself, while pursued by the Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton).

	Other Films
		The film was Lucas' homage to the memories of his own teenage years in Modesto, California, remembered with vintage cars and dragsters, drive-ins (Mel's), an almost non-stop rock soundtrack, teenage activities (hot rod crusin' and makin' out), and characteristic hair and clothing styles.
		George Lucas was the key figure behind the American film industry's evolution (or, according to most critics, de-evolution) from cinema to spectacle during the late '70s.
		The film from Lucas (an ex-USC film student and intern at Warner Bros.) was almost not made when every studio in Hollywood refused it, except for Universal.

		(In essence, Lucas was making an autobiographical tribute to his own days as a hot-rod cruiser, and the film's phenomenal success paved the way for Star Wars.) The action is propelled by the music of Wolfman Jack's rock and roll radio show--a soundtrack of pop hits that would become as popular as the film itself.
		It's a masterpiece of stunt driving, down-and-dirty photography, and sharp, furious cutting; the unsung hero of the picture is editor Warner Leighton, who paces the film perfectly and never lets it stall.
		Directed by longtime cinematographer Arthur Ripley, the film is strong on characters and action, the latter fulfilled by a memorable chase scene at the end.

	Film History of the 1970s
		The film's tagline or slogan encouraged nostalgia: "Where were you in '62?" Teenage archetypes included the hot-rod loving delinquent (Paul Le Mat), the brainy student (Richard Dreyfuss), the stereotypical class president (Ron Howard), and the nerd (Charles Martin Smith).
		It was a hand-held camera that produced fluid, unjerky motion shots - during the choreographed bouts and the scene in which the boxer jogged up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
		Other films that were backed by the studios reflected the tumultuous times, the discontent toward the government, lack of US credibility, and hints of conspiracy paranoia, such as in Alan J. Pakula's post-Watergate film The Parallax View (1974) with Warren Beatty as a muckraking investigator of a Senator's death.

		The film is seamlessly laced with a classic rock-n-roll soundtrack composed of over forty hits (often emanating from cruising car radios, or the school dance's record player).
		The film's screenplay was co-authored by Lucas with a USC friend Willard Huyck and his wife Gloria Katz.

	Jim Campilongo — Presskit
		On Heavy [Blue Hen Records], however, his two muses merge in a swirling melange of twisted Western swing, skewed Bakersfield twang, ominous surf, and over-the-limit, hot-rod jazz.
		And on his solo CD, the moody Table for One, he sounded as if he was scoring a film about love gone wrong.
		Until now Campilongo has displayed two sides: With his band, the 10 Gallon Cats, he recorded two albums of what could be best described as demented hillbilly instrumentals.

		While this may not be the most politically correct move for the sole female character in the film (excluding potential Junkion and Lithonian females seen in wide-shots), it fits in with Hot Rod's stereotype to have the attention of the only chick around and it does establish Arcee as part of his peer-group.
		Still, while he does not have much to do with the film's story, like Blurr, he would reappear frequently in the TV series, as would the Junkions, the slogan-spouting Transformers who the rest of the Autobots are running from while Hot Rod and Co are causing political upheaval on Quintessa.
		The Junkions also seem to have heard of him and are quite willing to join in his destruction.

		Creating a demand for other popular teen-oriented films, a less successful sequel was also produced - director Bill W. Norton's More American Graffiti (1979) that covered the years 1964-67.
		Young George Lucas' influential hallmark film American Graffiti (1973) recreates the feel, landscape, and sounds of early 60s, small-town America - an historical time period (of JFK's Presidency and the New Frontier before the jarring assassination of late 1963 and the rest of an unpredictable era) that has since been irretrievably lost.

		Among her many honors, Muldowney was the first motorsports personality to receive an “Outstanding Achievement Award” from the U.S. Congress, the first woman to be inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame, and she was also inducted into the Hot Rod Magazine Hall of Fame.
		With the release of “Heart Like A Wheel,” a successful biographical feature film, Shirley Muldowney’s name is now among the most recognized in all of motorsports.

		Of the Autobots, Hot Rod and Kup provide most of the one-liners, but they spend most of the film separated from the others.
		For Galvatron, the outcome of his battle with Hot Rod is spurious.
		Of course, the Autobots had no such disposable clones and thus spent the greater part of the third series taking shots like the troopers they were, with little to no ill effects.

	Hairspray Movie Poster
		But, this film deserves to be included in a hot rod movie site for reasons I can't explain, it just does.
		Hairspray isn't really a kar-flic, although Corny Collins does take his TV show on-remote to a 1963 Auto Show where a hot rod is on-display that is kinda interesting.
		And, notice that Corny Collins does the "walk-ups" to the records he's about to play on his dance-show tighter than most oldtime Top-40 radio stations were ever formated...and, probably better than most of today's "Good Times, Eight Oldies" radio stations get it done.
