Who remembers the dog jerking off in GARDEN STATE?
Oh no, a short one!?!
Listening to the latest CBB. Bad timing having recorded it just before the news broke that Batman doesn't eat ass. Does Night Wolf eat ass? The people want to know.
"Throw Momma from the Train" for the next Choo Choo Boyz / DeVito movie please?
Wait, have the boys done a Planet of the Apes EP yet?
You’ll have to make do with Amy from Congo
“Joan Wilder” & “Cartagena” occupy way too much space in my memory.
This week’s discussion reminds me of this Umberto Eco quote about Casablanca: “Two clichés make us laugh. A hundred cliches move us. For we sense dimly that the clichés are talking among themselves, and celebrating a reunion.”
Thanks Jesse CRap that was beautiful
Bushmaster is the snake they kill but its also the best nickname for a guy like Michael Douglas
I've had a roommate with a dog who was super protective of her and also just sat on the couch all day and jerked off in the way Rodgers described before. He'd also just stare you down if you walked into the room to watch TV, without stopping. What I'm saying is this episode triggered the fuck out of me and now I'm gonna have to talk to my therapist about the Action Boyz. Again.
My wife's dog when we first started dating would hump me when I was sleeping in a show of dominance. Ten years later he's dead and we've got two new dogs, I won.
A bird person came into my work once with some big ass bird on their shoulder and they were wearing what was essentially a shit cloak
Juan is played by Alfonso Arau, a respected Mexican actor who also directed “Like Water for Chocolate” and “A Walk In The Clouds.” But more importantly, let me get this straight: The Boyz love this schlock fest then trash talk Caddyshack?
The actor/stuntman in a ton of ABZ movies who is a sort of unknown guy is Thomas Rosales Jr. He's been in 13 ABZ movies. Stallone has been in 11. Even after seeing a picture of him I can't remember ever seeing him.
I get sincerely pissed off when I think about how Danny DeVito has been game and available for 20 years but virtually no great filmmakers have given him the great role he deserves... there's a parallel universe where there have been four or five classic movie performances by this brilliant, one of a kind actor who may not be with us a hell of a lot longer. Anyway, I'm sure this is partly DeVito's fault for not picking the right roles or whatever, but I think the modern movie business has left behind some world class actors. Rant over.
he has been producing and directing since the 80's it's not like Hollywood forgot about him, his non acting career is almost as impressive as his acting career
Regarding Slumdog Millionaire I was a sophomore in high school when it came out and it was a big deal for me and some friends, but that didn't last too long and I don't really care much about it now and I feel like I hardly know anyone that cared to see it let alone talk about it much. Curious how it holds up though.
Genuinely laughed at the menagerie talk. Parrots,wanking dogs. Wonderful 👏.
Does Stanger do a Kirk Douglas impression? When he does the "BRRRRUTAL" steroid freak aggro voice it's almost Kirk Douglas
“Oh no, I squibbed her”
re: Crocodile Mile. That Funches and Moynihan Slip n Slide show was shut down the other day due to an "explosive Diarrhea" outbreak on set.. good to know Gabrus is back to work
Beowulf might low-key make a great episode. It looks just as shitty as his other animated movies but, unlike those, it's also super violent, horny and weird. And Rodgers having positive memories of it because he was high as fuck when he saw it last would make for a nice twist.
Saw it soooo high on an IMAX screen, it rules! 🤘🤘
Kathleen Turner did monologues for Assscat a few years ago and I told her what a fan I was of Romancing the Stone. She told me she almost didn’t come back for Jewel of the Nile because she hated the script so much. Michael Douglass as producer screwed the writer of the original and didn’t bring her back to write the sequel. He sued Kathleen Turner to make her do the sequel. He gave the sports car to Diane Thomas less as a gift and more as way to bring her in to fix the shitty script he’d commissioned — one of those “bring in the female writer to fix the female character that got screwed over” jobs. And that’s the Porsche she died in shortly thereafter.
What a fucking horrific story, Jesus...
Why do Americans say “Cartagena” like lasagna? It’s a regular old N, not a Ñ
you can stop almost any question after why do americans...
Re: janitor position esteem question- When I was a floor care technician (janitor that specializes in floors) it was based on your access level. The more buildings and places you had access to with your key ring/ key card, the higher status you were. My crew went from “meh “ to “esteemed custodians” once we were able to access every building on campus. This may or may not have been correlated with what we had access to trade/borrow/steal with our fellow coworkers.
i bet you were pullin that puss
I remembered so little of this movie I actually rented and watched it, in preparation. However, it did get boring and I checked my phone for a while, missing them arrive at the jewels and didn't care enough to watch it again. 5 stars
The wheels came off the thing right around the time he spotted the Devil's Fork, kicking off the double-cross that started and ended in the span of like 3 scenes.
Gabrus was probably smoking too much weed and Rodgers was probably being weird online and Stanger was probably in the sauna and that's why they were late
Man... The Sunday Matinee triple Feature on the local "Fox" station. Swear I've seen this movie TV Edited at least 30 times as a kid.
Definitely one of the first Sunday night network TV movies I remember watching. February 8, 1987 on ABC according to the sauna. Still fun as hell to watch.
Thank god the episode is finally up! All that anxiety and uncertainty had me romancing MY stone to stay cool.
Did he say that?? lol
What even is this movie
Love a 80s movie with a mud water slide scene
why
Thank Christ!
Hahah I was like did the boyz stand me up during finals week??
at least we had Rodgers on CBB, I feel like exact same thing happened last time it was late
Hallelujah
