Jumpin' Jack Flash (1986)

This is up there for worst movies the boyz have ever covered - and the first movie in a decade I couldn’t finish. Great pod tho!

Can concur about the show Kevin. I haven't finished yet, but I like what I've seen so far. Feels very cosmopolitan compared to the American Dad and Futurama reruns I've been watching since 2020.

Also a sad birthday movie...I took all my friends to see "battlefield earth" which came out on my 15th birthday. Still haven't heard the end of that one

No lie some friends went and saw seagal at the bb king club in Manhattan like 15 or 20 years ago. Can't remember if it was any good but I do remember calling out "play 'fire down below'" or "let's here 'under seige'" in between songs. After the show I got on line to get his autograph and when I got up there I realized I didnt have anything to sogn so I dumped a pack of camel lights into my pocket and handed him the empty pack to sign, which he did and said "thats a bad habit"

Seagal and Feldman are on equal footing as guitar wearers.

Listening to these guys talk about fake dog shit made my week

Stanger, your dad woulda loved watching the Fly with me. I was probably 6 or 7, and when the arm wrestling scene came around I immediately puked. To my credit, I finished the movie. I feel for you, bud!

I’m pretty sure Goldberg is a Stones fan, she introduces them on their Voodoo Lounge tour live album.

I never saw The Fly II but I vividly remember the teaser trailer- clearly one of those ones they do when they don’t have footage they like yet. But I thought it was effective at just planting the idea of a ‘Son of The Fly’ type sequel. https://youtu.be/IDWZOJAvapU?si=ewkYUT3vD8y5poCP

Stanger was thinking of 2005's "The Man", starring Eugene Levy, Sam Jackson, and Action Boyz stalwart Miguel Ferrer.

I need the detail on how old Stanger was when his dad made fun of him for not being able to handle "The Fly". I'm guessing he was 6 or 7.

The worst billionaire cool guy look is Elon's factory distressed bomber jacket. You can't wear that jacket with an 'I take T but don't work out' body. I think Jensen's black leather jacket looks good but not for every appearance.

I always love when Steven Seagull makes an appearance

Can’t fully explain it but this guy and his takes on Persian Gulf craziness has some Action Boyz simpatico energy, not just Gabrus fashion sense and referencing Waterworld. https://youtube.com/@wgowshipping?si=k3UbIgqj9Ds3kvF9

My mom’s cousin moved to LA in the 80s and scored a tiny role in Jumpin’ Jack Flash. Ran into him at a family reunion recently and asked about JJF. Day of the shoot he shows up and everyone is waiting on Penny Marshall. Guess she was partying pretty hard back then. Out of nowhere Whoopi says to the group, “Well, I’m on my period and I think we should go get something to eat before the flies start circling.” So Whoopi took everyone to lunch, end of story

As an August birthday i had some interesting late summer birthday movies that Dad took me and my friends to. A couple that stand out in my memories were Howard the Duck for my 8th birthday, Young Einstein for my 11th birthday, and Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey for my 13th.

This came out when I was 11 years old and somehow I never saw it until now. Seriously, fuuuuuck this movie.

Garry Marshall was Penny Marshall’s brother not her dad. And was the character Van Meter a reference to JFK impersonator Vaughan Meader?

If the doughboys have taught me anything, it’s that the majority of people who can afford to open multiple restaurants are POS, so I think stranger was right about questioning a place with the name Great White. Back in October they were accused of multiple instances of anti-Asian racism by customers and employees alike, read an article in LA Eater.

I was going to propose a movie. But let’s be serious- I don’t own nearly enough fake dogshit for these guys to take any of my suggestions seriously.

Not sure if you guys have ever heard of a movie called "Scanners"?

Re: Seagal playing the guitar. I’ve been playing for decades and was in a semi-successful band and I can assure you guys that he absolutely fucking sucks at the guitar in the exact same way that he sucks at everything else. Total low effort poser.

My serially-unemployed uncle was obsessed with The Adventures of Ford Fairlane and showed it to me and my brother in the mid aughts, what a movie. An episode on that would be great, if you guys ever get to it.

Hearing a time shifted Gabrus not know he was talking to us on 4/20 is like being a kid and spotting that Santa’s beard is fake.

The tone Stanger takes with Gabrus about watching “Heads of State” was too funny

It's true. Mom's love Only Murders in the Building. Signed a person who's mom raves about this show.

If Jumpin’ Jack Flash is on the table then Fatal Beauty is a no-brainer pick for future reference…

could have used more scenes of typing at a computer

Adventures of Ford Fairlane is fucking awesome

Since this is the “fake poop episode” like 20+ years ago I purchased from Spencer’s Gifts fake poop in an aerosolized can. It came out with the texture of shaving cream, but brown. And smelled like rancid human shit. Truly vile. I sprayed it all over the public restroom at the mall.

I literally used LOL for real 3 days ago. Never used it except if it was a retort to someone who said LOL to me when being a dick.

Jeez what other movies have someone biting a dick? ( besides teeth)

Wait a second - watched this movie on French cable growing up and have a distinct memory of them kissing at the end. Is there a different american cut with the kiss removed!?

I love ya Gabrus, but you can't compare Brain Smasher to The Adventures of Ford Fairlane! But anyway, here's to you.

You make me watch Jumpin Jack Flash in a DREAM you better wake up and apologize.

sure.

Seeing Jim Belushi in a movie is always funny. My mom dated him when he was at Second City but I've always thought he sucks

Definitely watched this in the theater at around 10 years old with my much older sister. Remembered thinking it was hilarious and cool. Rewatching it last night: not so much. The prawn joke did legitimately make me laugh out loud. But that was about it.
