Weird punisher note. Maps and license plates are Seattle specifically with some changes at lake Washington, and Washington state car plates, but east coast gangsters and filmed in Australia….

I’m currently watching Backtrack aka Catchfire, directed by Dennis Hopper, and I think the boyz would love this film
I just stumbled across this on Instagram. He makes documentaries of 80s action flicks. https://www.instagram.com/oliverharper1982?
The other day I went to a rep screening of the OG Jurassic Park (cool flick, check it out) and for some reason people clapped every time Jeff Goldblum was on screen, truly mind boggling behavior but I imagine this is the kind of stuff that keeps Rodgers up at night as he meticulously constructs an improvised explosive device in his office
Gabrus, I just finished steel gods by Richard Swan and I can’t recommend it enough. I know you love joe Abercrombie and it is that mixed with the Motley Crue biography. Give it a look and I think you’ll like it
Action Boyz I found some cool 90s x files magazines I’d love to send. You ever set up a PO Box?
Three Ninjas?
The first episode of Airwolf, which I guess you could call the Pilot (ba dum, tiss) is INSANE. The head of a black water type pmc takes a hot chick out to a cabin in the woods to meet Stringfellow Airwolf, and he’s playing the cello on a dock and an eagle is flying around making eagle calls with the cello. Then they into his tiny cabin, and he has every famous painting a kid in the 80s would know crammed together on his walls - Mona Lisa, Wildflowers, Picasso, and the hot chic says “Oh that’s my favorite painting, where did you find such an exquisite copy?” And Sinjin AirWolf gives her a Clint Eastwood eat shit glare and tells her “Every painting in the Louvre is a fake. These are the originals.” And then Eye-patch Eric Prince leaves and they fuck. Insanity.
Juh-eesus Christ I'm stoked. By sheer coincidence I watched Romeo is Bleeding recently since I'm a big Noir buff and speaking of which, anybody ever see another nineties neo-noir (say that 3 times fast) called China Moon? It stars Ed Harris, Madeline Stowe, and a very young Benicio Del Toro. If you like you your nineties noir on the Florida side of things (swampy, sweaty a la Wild Things) you might want to see it. And the 89 Punisher! That movie loomed large in my childhood, and it'll be interesting to hear the Boyz talk about this character, since he seems like the embodiment of every character and trope from the action movies of this era.
I can remember seeing Romeo Is Bleeding in theaters and was PUMPED to see Oldman leading a crime drama like that. It's not good, rewatched it again recently and it's just a very self-serious slog. Lena Olin is fun in it, she's the only reason to watch it.
We should send The Punisher to Iran to take care of the problem 💪💪
Greenland first
When I think of Jumpin’ Jack Flash I think of Whoopi eating some chips, a brand I can't remember, excited to find out what kid of chips they are, or if this a false memory.
You’ll probably get to it in the episode, but I just want to say Lena Olin is the most “I can fix her” lady ever. She is so unusually beautiful, that her being pure evil wouldn’t stop me continuing to trust her.
Lena Olin in Unbearable Lightness of Being will change your life.
AirWolf is the magic word to get me to sign up for zombie squad!
I have to repeat this story because I'm 99% sure I didn't hallucinate this as a kid. I distinctly remember TBS (or TNT) marketing "Senseless Violence Tuesdays!" (or some other day) in the 90s. The Punisher was one of those movies advertised. I have searched everywhere to find those commericals online but can't, but I remember at the time, even as a 12 yo in 1996, how crazy that marketing was.
I was hoping it was the movie May with Angela Betis and Jeremy Sisto
They’re saving that for Dollcember
The Farmer — now I have my WWII veteran backwoods revenge movie
Sisu 1 and 2 are dope
Oh shit, they're doing Hairspray! Praise be!
Finally, Mayrvel
I've never even heard of The Punisher 1989 and I'm a buff movie.
Unexpectedly getting the clues on a Tuesday morning certainly brightened the start to my workday.

Ok so no Animepril?
I’m hoping for a Whooptober.
I've heard bad things about the Lundgren Punisher. Curious how it'll play out
FIVE STARS
A vocal yes! In the kitchen reading jumping jack flash
Who's Harry Crumb features a scene with a woman covered in mud and was announced as a Shadow Wolves movie just one day after a mud wrestling tangent occurred on the Number One With a Bullet episode. (0 of 3 found this helpful)
