[...] Germany. (Someone wants a normal contact for a handoff, in a plot that reminded me of the setup for Condorman — there were a lot of similar ideas floating around TV and movies in the 80s, it seems.) [...]

Yes, that’s one of his better known roles.

I remember getting this from the video store as a kid and really enjoying it. The dad from Teen Wolf was Woody’s CIA friend and eventual reluctant handler, right?

I remember going to the drive in to see this! A few years ago I picked up a copy on VHS through ebay, and loved it just as much then as when I was a youngster. Always wanted to know who did the art for the comics in the movie, anyone have a clue?

Ooooh yeah I will always remember Condorman as it was the first VCR movie I ever got to pick out. I’d ridden to the place with my mom, and she looked at me and said for me to go pick out something I’d like to watch and this one looked exciting! (I don’t remember ANYTHING about the movie outside of a cool car)

Weeks before the technician had arrived at our house, and brought out this HUGE box that had something called a VCR, which he hooked up to our TV. That was like magic to me, as before then TV wasn’t that big a deal for me outside of whatever show my parents were watching at the time.

The only time I’d gotten to watch something I was interested in was a little toy car movie player thing. They had it at the clothing store my mom went to, and she’d put me in there, feed the machine its money and I’d be good for an hour watching Casper and Popeye cartoons.

Condorman was something for me, with it at my house, that I had been in charge of picking out. So yup, I remember Condorman.:) (need to rent it someday)

Yeah I enjoyed this as a kid. I put it in the same category as “Hero At Large” with John Ritter, another one of those “regular guy becomes a superhero” movies.

Ooh, good one! I like it when the Russian baddy talks about any child finding his secrets for one small coin.

Remember Condorman? Let’s put it this way: For several years, my sig line was, “He is not an agent of the C.I.A.! He is a writer of comic books!” :)
