Red Heat (1988)
RED HEAT this week ActionBabyz. It's been a long time coming. Here's the deal, we walked away loving Arnold, loving Walter Hill, loving Arnold's partner at the beginning, loving the co-ed nude gym/spa? scene, being a little bothered by the fit of Arnold's suit and fucking hating Belushi. Oh what could have been...

Hell yeah
BOYS are right Malkovichs puppet work is off the chain
Waiting for Arnold is fucking money, please write that Ben
Ed O' Ross is so good in The Hidden. The Boyz gotta do that one.
Is this movie in English? I'm 15 minutes in and it's in what sounds like Russian, with no subtitles. I don't know if it's intentional or if my copy is the wrong one. edit: ok it goes to English when they're in the states. Did anyone else not have subtitles for the first 15 minutes? I have no Idea what's going on.
Ratty Gorp’s nemesis of course, Paper Shredder
I love this podcast. Definitely missed the Are you...? 'Recommend this podcast' ..on the Red Heat ep. That's some of my favorite stuff Appreciate the action boyz tropes and the dedication to the Cannon legacy
Waiting for Arnold is a great idea; I bet he’d attend it, the premise strokes his ego.
I have OFT said that the best non-action movie you guys should do is Just One Of The Guys. So many parts of that movie, aside from the glorious breasts reveal, are burned in my memory. Use an eraser to fix a broken earring, Rick's fake girlfriend looks like Chris Everett Lloyd (no clue who that is), "all balls itch, it's a fact"! Haven't seen it in 20+ years.
I have noticed that the Action Boys theme song has hints of the Cobble Hill Cinema opening screen music. I keep picturing a spaceship shooting lasers into a trash can.
"Waiting For Arnold" is a legit great premise.
He’d attend, it’s perfect for his ego.
Have the Boyz seen "Thief"? Belushi is pretty good in that.
I'm glad this episode finally addressed the question: what happens to Gabrus' shirt sleeves when he cuts them off?
Where did the SNL sketch with farley and malkovich link get posted?
Fortunately Jason Lee got out of Scientology a few years ago. Think he got a lot less work cause of it though
Really? Good news. His co-star Evan Suplee was in it too.
Thanks for posting this on a holiday!
Was Rodgers thinking of Steven Berkoff for the actor who always plays Russians?
Victa Maitlin has herpes.
IMDb died for me when they got rid of message boards. I miss talking to people about Weekend at Bernie's.
Moviechat.org doesn’t have much juice as a platform and seems to be used by angry yelp reviewers, but at their start they imported a chunk of IMBD’s old boards. They don’t have everything but you can look up older movies and see threads going back to the early 2000s and sometimes find some great discussions on movies in the ABZ pocket that are hard to find nowadays on Reddit or anywhere else.
When Belushi had hot coffee poured on his dick and screamed, my girlfriend turned to me and said, “You know you think you are Arnold but you are actually Jim Belushi.” As the Stanger of my friend group I didn’t understand this at all, what even is hot coffee.
