Brock Yates was one of the people who conceived of and participated in the real cannonball run
HOT BEEF INJECTION is the nastiest/most vile term in my opinion
Horror boys spin off podcast - the boys watch and review every episode of Tales From the Crypt plz 🙏🏼 I’ll pay 💰
Fun epilogue to the stolen Crypt keeper is that it was eventually found, and returned to the Mystic Museum. They threw a party for his homecoming.
As a former Deli-man who probably cut 1,000 pounds of Genoa or Hard salami in my day, I’m now super into the term “play hide the salami.” They’re so greasy, wet, and stinky - though delicious. I may even favor this term over the good old Hunka Chunka.
the smell of the meat… it stinks
boy, i thought that was Jon Ennis and Anton Chigurh
Anthony Kiedis was really good in this movie
Tron Mode might have been worth it if it played Daft Punk instead of Nine Inch Nails.
Hearing “Beetlejuice” from the Howard Stern Show brought back the best memories shooting a reality show with him. Michael Maccarone, who played Howard as a kid with the puppets in Private Parts, is now a producer and hired me to shoot the Killers of Comedy on the road for HowardTV. As a fan of the show, it was hands-down, the best few months of my life. Yuko and his dildos in TSA xray line…At one point, I’m sitting under the St. Louis arch next to Beet and I asked him, “Did you work on this? “ He said “Hey man I help build this in 1945” I shot the moment Artie Lange shook hands with Eric the Midget in SF. Another surreal moment was in LA Ryan Philippe and Breckin Meyer were behind the scenes (they’re huge fans of Howard) chilling in the green room and Ryan starts talking about how he wants to beat the shit out of Josh Lucas because of comments he made on a press tour with SWEET HOME ALABAMA and him kissing Reese (Josh’s crush since Man in the Moon) over and over and fucking up his lines on purpose to kiss her more while Ryan’s married to her at the time and Josh knew it. Also Beetlejuice said he can swim to Alcatraz and back.
These Gabrus and Rodgers birthday stories first debuted on the Warriors (1979) episode! It's one of my favorites. Go check it out if you haven't heard it in a while (or ever).
Funny the lethal weapon 3 guy saying no one had made a movie about white supremacy when Stone Cold came out 2 years earlier
And Birth of a Nation came out 67 years earlier.
I know these kind of movies can be pretty problematic and racist at times but I've found that I'm a real sucker for these type of fish out of water movies set in Japan. There have been some modern variants of it but I think they really worked best in the 70s-90s, a time where the world was globalized enough that it was no huge effort to travel to a place like Japan but simultaneously you would have very little interaction with their culture or media. While I don't want to miss all the advantages the Internet has brought us it has made traveling a little less exciting when something like Google translator is just always so close by.
Facts
I found this site with a bit of info on that awesome building. https://tokyofox.net/2025/02/19/modern-architecture-outside-of-tokyo-8-kyoto/ And also a new aspiration to end up in a nursing home in Kyoto.
Says it was also in The Yakuza!
I'm 30 seconds in and I just gotta pause to say, the moment one of you speak at the top of the bit, I smile like some lunatic in an asylum. Always brightens my day. Another 10/10 episode I'm sure. Love you guys.
I was just reading that WWE wrestlers have to pay for their own gear, gym, travel, hotel, everything cause McMahon fought so hard for them to not unionize. AEW is a new promotion from like 2020 and seems to take way better care of their roster, the owner is Tony Khan who I think owns the Jaguars and actually likes wrestling and isn't worried about only making money.
They're famously employed as "independent contractors", despite WWE having complete control over every facet of their job.
One of my favorite things about ninjavember is remembering when a guy asked in earnest if the theme song was permanent.
Predator Badlands was fuckin awesome check it out. It's the Enemy Mine of this generation
Too Disneyfied for me, and violates an axiom of the medium, paraphrasing Andrew Sarris: it is perverse and pointless to punish the audience by making them look at ugly people on screen.
It’s Nov 10th, and the Marines bday. Scott Glenn was a Leatherneck in the 60s.
"If Luke never left Tatooine" lmaooo
A love letter to haircuts.
In reference to the storage, transportation, maintenance etc. of Japanese swords, a quote that I once heard about Japanese swords, from I think an actual museum or auction house curator: "The blade is the sword." A line worthy of Big John. I think he went on to say that the hilt, tsuba (guard), etc., however beautiful and artistic, are "furnishings."
Used to fly around with swords and we actually found you get less questions if you put ‘em in a rifle case. I wonder if that has changed
Good movie. Scott Glenn's gangliness is distracting. Five stars.
Kickass movie. To think Scott Glenn didn't want to do action movies and he has done almost nothing but, since..
