First sexual experience was a couch handie watching willow
I'm 1 minute in to Cutthroat Island & I'm afraid that this movie will be more than Stanger can handle monkey-wise.
Yakuza has been on my list ever since I watched Friends of Eddie Coyle. Now I definitely need to see it. Hoping for a month where the boys do British gangster movies like The Long Good Friday, Sexy Beast, The Krays, Get Carter, McVicar. Probably not all widely available to stream.. but def in their wheelhouse.. just across the pond.
Cutthroat Island has a very special place in my heart because on the VHS tape, the red band trailer for showgirls played before the movie, and I probably watched it 100 times as a kid. Never watched the cutthroat island movie though. Looks good, lot of water stuff.
Geena Davis delivers lines worse than Ben auditioning for Flash
Matt Dillon
Outta the way peck!
Two 70s movies in one month? Amazing stuff. This is like my platonic ideal for a month of Action Boyz movies. A notorious bomb, a 70s classic I was due for a rewatch for, something from the 80s I haven't seen since I was a kid, and another trip into the back catalogue of one of the heavy hitters I'd never watch if it wasn't for this show.
Wow, this is amazing!!!
oh my my, oh Hell Yes
The greatest action star of the 90s. Matthew Modine.
Holy shit did that have to be a VERY specific time for them to even consider mentioning Hulk Hogan on the cover of a movie magazine. And Brandon Lee? I think Rapid Fire was about the only thing of his to play in theaters before his death.
Cutthroat Island- STARZ The Yakuza- PRIME (Rental) Willow- Disney+/PRIME (rental) The Mechanic (1972) PRIME
I never saw Cutthroat Island, but I remember it being a huge box office bomb. But I'm not really sure how I knew stuff like that before the modern internet. The newspaper? Entertainment Weekly? AOL chatrooms??
Entertainment Tonight. Late night monologues. radio
Best bday gift - willow. Thank you PECKS!
"Harlin was nominated for a Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Director for his work on the film, but lost to Paul Verhoeven for Showgirls." American pigs.
Yakuzas a cool one. Sadboi Mitchum
A fine list of films. Cutthroat Island is rife with discussion points.
never seen it gonna have to get pretty hammered to make it through
“Why haven’t you guys done Yakuza, Action Boyz?? Actually they are doing Yakuza.”
I've been waiting for Charles Bronson with Emo hair
I know it’s not a movie, but man do the ABZ need to tackle Banshee.
Look up high and mighty episodes circa 2015 or 2016.
I hate that they don't broadcast The Toughest Man in Hollywood awards anymore
Alas, Derek Savage's 420 Awards are the one true remaining award show.
Ive only seen the Statham “The Mechanic” so it’ll be nice to finally have a reason to watch the original. Is there a scene where a small guy is pretending to want to bottom for a giant and almost dies trying to kill him?
Toughest Man in Hollywood? My money's on Kathy Ireland.
Hive mind shit.
Toughest man in Hollywood? Kathy Ireland or Penn & Teller for sure. Tough list.
Rewatched The Assignment the other day and it would be a good ABz movie. Excited for Willow Talk (Also the name of my new podcast).
Imagine a Bloodsport type movie where this list of people fought to see who was the toughest man in Hollywood. Glorious.
Penn & Teller the final bosses, with Teller riding Penn like Master Blaster.
Yes! Psyched they're doing Willow. The Kevin Pollak stuff is garbage but i enjoy the remaining 30% of the movie
Huge
