Working my way through the back catalogue. Ben mentions The Bear: my cousin ended up marrying on of the stars of the movie, Jack Wallace, later in life.
Hell yeah
Yes to video tier
'Vantage Point' in response to Harold & Kumite
I hope the new official currency of Val Verde is Rannazzisi coins.
Nah bro thats the new ACTIONSBOYZ BRAND CRYPTOCURRENCY SPONSORED BY MELON USK AND BRO JOGAN
Do Hulk Hogan movies count as Action Boyz material?
Three-Ninjas had a third movie that had him in it. If they just skipped the first two movies and did the third, legit amazing bit.
Kind of like the boyz, the rom coms I drifted towards were ones that had some multi genre elements. Like Defending Your Life, IQ, or Singles. Something with another hook to entice me. But I really liked rewatching Sleepless In Seattle. It’s such a solid fun movie. Hope they keep spicing up their choices in the wolves

Anyone got a link to the intro video?
This was probably my favorite Shadow Wolves episode in a long while. I think separating the discussion of each week's movie from the general discussion and tangents has been a great decision, as it allows both parts to breath a bit more. Also, the call-in portion has been just as awkward and amazing as I thought it would be. Keep calling, you fucking degenerate janitors, I love it.
Lake Union Boathouse Story- 15 yrs ago my high school buddy lived in a floating home on Lake Union in Seattle, near the Hanks' house. He would kayak to work in the morning and one day saw a body floating near one of the homes. It was an older guy in a robe and pajamas. Thinking that the guy had just drowned, my friend paddled over and pulled the guy up on the dock. He called 911 and then started giving him mouth to mouth. The lake patrol boat showed up with engines and sirens wailing. They came in hot and ended up crushing the old guys legs between the hull and the dock. The paramedic rushed over, felt the guy and then said to my friend, 'He's cold. You can stop with the CPR.'
What colour was the boathouse at Union Lake?
It is my first time reading through the comments, and I expected much worse given the exchanges on the podcast. This thread actually made their comments seem a little harsh in hindsight. Then I read through a couple of Shadow Wolves Questions threads... Carry on.
Just turned 39. Pretty much every piece of advice about being in your 30s is correct.
Speaking of romance, has any married couple made more movies together than Chuck Bronson and Jill Ireland?
Come on man, Swayze is up there with Gibson or anyone else hairwise.. and I don't exactly know what a reverse mullet is but I'm thinking something like Cameron Esposito?
Congrats on hitting 4000 subs, boyos! As for the video tier, I'd totally pay $10 a month, even though I know that I would rarely have the chance to actually watch the videos, since I usually listen while doing other stuff.
I think the opposite of a Mullet is a McSqueeb
Attended a wedding years ago and one of the groomsmen was in Miracle. This guy Nate was a former Minnesota Gophers captain and that’s how he got the audition. He played John Harrington, one of the dudes on the Conehead line. Someone hosted an after bar and we started chatting about Kurt Russell. I asked what it was like working with him since most of the cast was composed of hockey players. Not surprisingly he said Russell and Noah Emmerich were both awesome to learn under. Miracle might be a fun Sportstember movie since the topic of using real athletes came up during The Program episode, I think. It seemed to work fine in Miracle. Pretty good scene, he said they were nervous about forcing Russell and Emmerich to do a bunch of takes, Nate’s the tall one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zna4U7DQSYA
Yes Video Tier!
I need it!!!
Love the ABz to do Titanic. And Dirty Dancing, which used to be mentioned on the show quite often.
Titanic is one of those films I thought there was just no way to really do it for the show, but it's perfect for these looser Shadow Wolves concepts.
Completely off topic, but I came across this amazing WWII era US training video "How to Behave in Britain" circa 1943 starring a young Burgess Meredith. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltVtnCzg9xw
Flammable Crotch Rot is a punk band in the Repo Man universe
I photoshopped a Ranazissi 9/11 coin last year at some point. Looked pretty good like actual embossed metal. Decided not to post it like I do about 3/4 of my ActionBoyz thoughts...
Do it. They thought highly of mine...

I can only see 2 of the 43 penii!
As a Bills fan, Steve Tasker’s hype videos do bring me to near tears. Heartless Rodg wasn’t falling for it.
Watched all of Ephron's movies for Blank Check last year. Her directorial career is such a wild ride. She followed the success of this up with Mixed Nuts, a super dark slapsticky ensemble comedy set at an L.A. suicide helpline at Christmas. It's a beautiful mess, and audiences wanted no part of it.
You all should do the mickey Rourke "we need to forgive Eric roberts" speech at the beginning of one of these (maybe for awards season?) - became aware of it thanks to an old AB episode and I think about it all the time
Also Mickey had an appearance on the masked singer recently which is very worth watching
The weird toffee bar hair thing I recently noticed on Alec Baldwin during “Pretend It’s a City”. It looks like he swiped a wig from SNL.
It’s crazy how poorly promoted Cinemax’s original shows are. I didn’t even know what Banshee was until the final season went into production near me in the Pittsburgh area. I got caught up on the first two seasons before working on it a few times, and I think the third season was airing while that fourth one was filming. At one point, I’m an Amish protester, I’m an office worker in a scene where the bad guy is killing his boss in a dream sequence, and I think I’m outside the police station when someone lights themself on fire. It was the only season actually shot in Pennsylvania, which may be why the geography feels especially crazy, and Antony Starr wasn’t around for any of the stuff I was in, but the guys who play Kai (the big bad of the series) and his crazy right-hand man are pretty rad.
The guys’ reaction to that caller saying she was “late” cracked me up. I had the same reaction too! 🤣. (Listen to 1:28:30)
A pregnant pause if I’ve ever heard one.
'Shooter' was great because Danny Glover had just gotten adult braces and his voice is completely insane lisps...
Could a nice listener let us know where to skip to avoid Antkind spoilers? Thanks
There aren’t any. Listen freely
Re: childhood haircuts, I remember my dad saying he would kick me out of the house if I shaved my head when I was 11-12 or so, during the Eminem craze. Something like a Mohawk was unthinkable. Definitely will let my kids have cool hair one day, rather than the corny bullshit I had my entire childhood.
My parents let my brother get a flat top for his birthday. This was early in Simpsons popularity and I remember thinking it was outrageous to let it happen
...Day of the Jackal...The Jackal...The Assignment...
Gangs of London pilot rules, but there's a definite dropoff between the episodes Evans directed himself (the first two and #5 I think) and the rest of the series, which felt much more like a standard stretched out season of a streaming service crime family drama. The stuff he directed feels like it would work pretty well on its own and I'm fairly sure it's just a script he had around that got repurposed.
It was about three episodes too long and there was a lack of a big fight scene in the final act. Otherwise fun. Subscribe, through Prime, for the free one week preview of the AMC channel, if you want to check it out, without paying extra.
Hilarious farts in this episode🍑💨
Headphones on!!!!!!! I listen to podcasts. It’s a good hands-free activity! Sorry for the poor sound quality - I was talking about “A Serbian Film.” It’s supposed to be an arty representation of the violence the nation has suffered, but it’s just a gross exploitation/torture porn. And Oldboy was my personal example. It is so disturbing.
A Serbian Film is one of those great litmus tests when you're talking to someone about movies and he (let's be real, it's always an edgelord dude) is really into it, where you immediately know you can write off every other opinion of the guy you're talking to.
I may have been nursing.

Re: Antkind and Rosenberg’s love of Apatow, he is based on The New Yorker’s Richard Brody, who famously dislikes most of Kaufman’s work but always gushes over Apatow’s work.
A great romance: the Before Sunrise trilogy. If you haven’t seen them watch them over a 3 day period. Especially if you’re newly dating someone. I watched all 3 back to back with a girl I was dating and I think I didn’t hear back after watching. 🤷🏼♂️ Plus a similar thing happened to me in 1993 in college and I made a movie about it in 2005. Gained and lost 80 lbs for it. It was fun getting fat https://youtu.be/o4uEEjMoxQ0
Someone re-edited a trailer to SLEEPLESS as a horror film. 5 stars. https://youtu.be/frUPnZMxr08
For Valentine's Day my gf put together a list of films to watch. Guess which one i chose & didn't tell her that it was only because it was for Shadow Wolves? This lil scamp
I liked king of Staten Island. Wouldn’t pay $20 for it on Amazon, but it’s worth a free watch.
Agreed. I think the comedy worked pretty well and it was genuinely sweet at times. Not perfect but I’d recommend for sure.
Just watched Sleepless in Seattle and realized I've never seen it. I always thought I did but I was thinking about You've Got Mail everytime. Just blew my mind 🤯
Not scripted guys, I promise you. Fucking love that clip. How baked out of your mind do you have to be to even consider shaky cam footage of Van Damme getting flowers out the trunk of a car to be scripted.
