That unexpected '89 Joker "I'm glad you're dead" made me fail a shoulder press rep at LA Fitness
“Johnny, I am your father. Use the jacuzz.”
Downtown Buffalo AMC is back and renovated !!
Stanger I think the difference is this is a revenge film. That’s the itch it scratches. Not adventure or even action really. What it does is sets up a feeling for the viewer to want to feel powerful and vengeful on the assholes of the world. I think that’s why this is fun to watch and can’t be compared to Terminator or Raiders and the like. You need to compare it to other revenge films.
Gabrus I'll recommend Tigers are Not Afraid. Felt like a GDT movie set amongst the Mexican cartel
"but I killed."
Stanger with the "biddi biddi biddi" Twiki from Buck Rogers tv show at 21:07. Have they done that show for Zombie Squad?
For Spanish language shows, check out The Eternaut on Netflix. Argentinian sci-fi show. Really good.
The Cuomo bits had me dying
I'm pretty sure every single Shadow Wolves subscriber knew who you meant as soon as you said Robert Muldoon
This was an all-timer lol. Bless these guys and this show
Hell yeah
Not enough Csokas glazing. Character actor delivering!!
Monos (2019) is a pretty cool recent Spanish language movie that might have been missed. It's a bit of a modern Lord of the Flies.
A tv show recommend for Gabrus - Mr Inbetween - on FX I believe. Australian crime show but so much more. Top shelf stuff. Not in spanish of course just real good.
It’s funny that they said an old commando who’s dead is controlled by someone and kicks ass. There’s a Chuck Norris movie from last year where he’s a robot and kicking ass lol
The Naked Gun (2025) has a runtime of just 1 hour and 25 minutes—I already love it! That tells me the creators had the good sense to know these kinds of movies don’t need to be long. Get in, deliver the laughs, and get out before it wears out its welcome. Can’t wait to see it this Thursday!
I just listened to the past How Did This Get Made and learned Zombie Squad is a term from Cobra. The more you know!
Atlantis holds up and is still very horny
The tapestry style animation in “Sleeping Beauty” rips
Of all the Trump impersonators out there Rodgers is easily my favorite.
“I’m glad you’re dead!” Still the best Joker scene ever. https://youtu.be/XU7gnMSzf_c?si=M2aTI4ticT4YEUgI
Belascoaran on Netflix is a great spanish language detective show
Countdown is definitely written by AI
I’d like to recommend a very strange Canadian film from the late 70s called Kings And Desperate Men. It was filmed in 1977 and released in 1981. Disclaimer, it’s not good but it’s shot in an interesting way, is from the 70s and features some great Canadian accents. Here’s the youtube link https://youtu.be/PxjShlDP-Fo It stars Patrick McGoohan from the Prisoner and Margaret Trudeau, then wife of PM Pierre Trudeau and mother of former PM Justin. The film is about a terrorist cell that kidnaps a famous radio DJ, his family and a judge. The terrorists goal? To hold a public trial over the radio for a man serving time for manslaughter after he drunkenly ran over a cop, and allowing the listeners to hold a non-binding vote as a jury. As far as I can tell they don’t ask for the imprisoned pisstank to be released It’s a strange movie just on that alone, but if you know Quebec history it is even more bizarre. Between 1963 and 1971 a terrorist group called the Front de libération du Québec carried out a series of bombings and kidnappings that killed 7 people.* It came to a head in October 1970 (the October Crisis) when the FLQ kidnapped a British trade envoy and a Quebec cabinet minister (who they later murdered) in order to free imprisoned FLQ members. Trudeau suspended civil liberties and sent the army in to arrest hundreds of suspected Quebec nationalists. Why does this matter? Because this movie, filmed in Montreal not even 7 years after this all happened, about a double kidnapping perpetrated to free a prisoner is clearly influenced by those events. Not only that; it stars the wife of the Prime Minister who sent the army in against the FLQ, and one of the terrorists is played by a man, Robin Spry, who made famous documentaries about the FLQ in the 70s. It is filmed in the city where most of the attacks happened, using Montreal antiterrorist police as extras. Despite all these connections, they removed all the political and cultural elements of the October Crisis. These terrorists are just Anglophone Canadians, who are intensely motivated to get a random guy out of prison for drunk driving. *Some sources say 8, but the eighth was a Quebec Provincial Police corporal killed during the 1969 Montreal police strike (city cops didn’t show up to work at shift change, leaving Montreal with no police, so 400 provincial cops had to move in from rural areas to try and give some police presence). A FLQ affiliated group called the Mouvement de Libération du Taxi, along with the Popeyes motorcycle club (which would later become the Montreal Hells Angels) used the police strike as an opportunity to attack an Anglo owned taxi company’s headquarters. There was a gunfight between the taxi companies guards and employees and the MLT/bikers and the QPP officer was caught in the crossfire.
I'd like to suggest Wishmaster 1 and 2 for basically the same reasons

Thank you
Hey Gabrus check out Alex de la Iglesia’s 90s films if you haven’t. Mutant Action, The Day of The Beast, and Perdita Durango
Finally got around to Equalizer 3 this year. Not enough Equalizing!
That's why Equalizer 4 will have to have more Equalizing than normal so that between 3 and 4 the Equalizing equals out to an average amount of Equalizing
Thank you Harry Houdini
