Universal Soldier (1992)
Ear necklaces, puns related to said necklaces, super soldiers, and JCVD's shaved nude ass! How could this be bad?? Somehow UNIVERSAL SOLDIER manages to suck. Rest assured the Boyz are here to tell you why. You better believe we get to the bottom of how some french guy ended up as a US soldier ended up in Vietnam. Well, maybe we don't get to the bottom of it but we do make fun of it. Almost Human, Almost Perfect, Almost Always talking About Quim.

I recommend checking out the John Carpenters Shadow Company script. Written by Shane Black and Fred Dekker and produced by Walter Hill. Has a very similar concept. Im wondering if someone got their hands on it and used it for this. https://archive.org/details/SHADOWCOMPANYunprod.1988.10.20DraftByShaneBlackFredDekker
Hell yeah
Does anyone have the link to the Van Damme “Chocolate bunny for mamma...” video that the Boyz keep referencing?
The grown up "bat boy"
With regards to Cajuns and their accents, most of us have spoken English as a first language since the 30s. During the Great Depresion, a lot of rurally isolated cajuns left their insulated french speaking communities to find work in New Orleans, which had been primarily english speaking for a while. However, a lot of us are taught French as a second language in schools or go to exclusively French speaking schools. Theres a lot with a cajun accent, like Swamp People or whatever, but it does not sound like a person from France at all. And as for Devereux's mom being full french, most of that immigration was about 2 generations earlier. As an example, my grandfather spoke only English with a thick cajun accent, his grandfather was an immigrant from France, and I speak English with almost no accent but know Louisiana French as a second language.

Yeah the Patreon app is straight up garbage. Use the RSS link (on this page https://www.patreon.com/ActionBoyz/membership) & add it to an RSS listening app
I think this is the first movie I was into more than The Boyz. Feels weird. If I've learned anything from this show (between this and the Johnny Mnemonic episode) it's that I'm way more forgiving towards a movie's flaws if it has 90s Dolph as a villain in it.
Agreed. I mean, I didn't love it but I don't think it's any worse than Hard Target or Con Air.

From a January 2007 New York Daily News article: "I cannot remember a day that went by where he didn't say, 'I want to donate my eyes,' " Orbach's widow, Elaine, recalled yesterday. HE SAID HE WANTED TO DONATE HIS EYES *EVERY SINGLE DAY*
She's lying; and I bet she's hiding something too.
All you do is make JCVD a leftover from the French Indo-China war. His accent makes sense.
This movie Dien Bien Phucking sucked.
This movie a love letter to bags of ice.
I’d go as far as to say that ice is a character in this movie.
The world would be a better place if we all aspired to be the Stanger of our friend group.
I'm actually the stanger in my friend group.

Major props for picking a zombie soldier movie for Memorial Day.
Why would Rodgers and Gabrus trust uploading the file to Stanger?! Why won’t you two teach him how to read?
It's an action teaze
Did the file not go up or something? Damnit Gabrus, stop getting way too high before pressing the button!
Yeah, not seeing any file here or on the RSS feed
Watched this last night, loved to buildup to finding out where Van Damme is from. "What's that accent? What are you like French-Canadian?" "I dun knoo" Then, when they go to his parents farm and his mom comes out and immediately says "Bonjour" lmao had me dying
"c'est pas possible! mon fils~~~!" I wanted SO BAD for the Dad to be like "tabarnak!"
Universal Soldier can't beat my universal remote.
