The Park is Mine (1985)
Grab your camouflage face paint, throw on your mirrored shades and don’t forget your New York Yankees ball cap (this movie takes place in NY not somewhere in Canada for Christ’s sake!) It’s time to take control of the park for 72 hours in honor of Veterans Day or some shit. Look, we don’t know what the message is, all we know is THE PARK IS MINE and she’s a photojournalist goddamnit!!!

The ending of mazes and monsters is so insane. The misdirect made me stand up lol
Hell yeah
Get naked!
I truly hoped for an MJ / Paul McCartney duet in this episode
Good lord, Gabrus is in this movie with a bald cap as the "burn down Central Park" doctor.
Late to the game, but the whole movie is on YouTube!
Is Mitch the perfect Action Boyz Halloween costume?
Where was Mitch on Jan 6th
Dead. Casey Fucking Ryback put a knife through the top of his skull before sexually assaulting a woman.
For all you Mitchheads out there, I dropped a "The Park is Mine" T-shirt that is accurate as I could get it based on some fuzzy screenshots. Available in red. https://society6.com/product/the-park-is-mine_t-shirt?sku=s6-21373959p15a4v76a5v18a11v49
sorry that i scooped ya, but cool that we got a shout out on shadow wolves eh?
I encourage anyone who doesn't know, like Gabrus, to look into the Haggard song 'okie from Muskogee' and learn about the satirical commentary that it is. It's very much not anti-hippie or pro-war at all!
It was definitely intended as sincere when written, according to Haggard. https://americansongwriter.com/merle-haggard-as-he-is-part-3/
I’ve heard too many episodes of The Doughboys as every time they say “Mitch” I think of them talking about Mike Mitchell.
There’s another early 80’s HBO action movie with Tangerine Dream I noticed on HBO Max the other day. Flashpoint with Kris Kristofferson, Treat Williams, Rip Torn, Kurtwood Smith and Jean Smart. Pretty fun, couple good/dumb lines, cool score, KK in great shape and I think it was a tight 90 minutes or close
The soundtrack for Spasms (awful movie, basically Scanners but with a poisonous snake that causes people to explode instead of psychic energy) was Tangerine Dream’s career low point IMO
Hope to hear from Rodgers’ governor Cuomo again in light of the recent news.
Going by the politics in Italy itself he could move to the Old Country and start again, he’d fit right in.
Rolling Thunder is so damn good
I think the thumb-sucking thing was supposed to be cuz she was out of cigs, but I might be doing too much work for the movie...
grid padrin
The explosions at the end felt like Caddyshack.

Boo, needs a ringer in red and white. :/
Just finished watching, haven't listened yet. Holy shit this movie rocks. It has great cussing, TLJ is great for the part. Valery has shit to do. Not sure why she sticks around but she hangs tuff either way. Might end up buying this one. Fun watch.
aBz 4 LiFe
Sorcerer, Deadzone, and Videodrome.
The excellent podcast “Behind the Bastards” did an episode on the founder of Soldier of Fortune Magazine. Look it up!
Steven Hilliard Stern also directed the very mediocre Miracle On Ice movie that aired on ABC in 1981. Worth a watch, just to see Steve Guttenberg’s attempts at carrying out basic goalie skills as Jim Craig.
Gabrus mentioned the X Files card game and now all I can think about is you guys doing an episode for the first X Files movie.
Shout out to my dog for making me a way more active person that exercises every day. Dog photo demographics: not a small dog (75lbs) but in some photos she looks smaller than a beagle
Behind the Bastards podcast did an episode about Soldier of Fortune. It doesn't go over all the murder for hire stuff but it does talk about how South Africa's even more racist neighbor Rhodesia used it to recruit a bunch of racist American's to go die in Africa.
I’m on Stanger’s side on the dog size fiasco. I also own a 40lb dog and it can be tricky to tell how big she is from photos. When I adopted her I expected her to be bigger from the photos of her on the shelter’s website. I also have had many people tell me that my dog is much smaller than what they anticipate from only seeing her in photos perviously. I think people forget about medium sized dogs because most dogs are either large or small and because medium sized dogs clearly don’t look like small dogs, people assume they’re big. And that’s why I’m the Stanger of my friend group…
While I was bartending in San Antonio I knew a lot of people who had run ins with TLJ. Dude showed up at a Thai restaurant and ordered fish. The waiter comes up to him and says "hello I really apologize but we are out of the grouper this evening. Is there something else I can get you?" He says, "why is it on the menu then?". The waiter explains and apologizes that they only have so many per day. TLJ gets up and leaves without saying a word. However, there is a chicken fried steak place here. The dude goes there more then once a month. I sat next to him at the counter once. He came in alone. He just looks like an old fella with a baseball cap on and saw that I ordered my Chicken fried steak with okra and macaroni. He says to me, "Nice choice". We chit chat a little bit but I didn't make a thing about it as I know he's a dick. Then he starts talking about his ranch and brightens up, orders us both a piece of pecan pie and continues rambling. If you ever meet him, just talk about ranching or football. He's a dick about everything else haha.
I’ll be the Pee guy . The official name of our pee distribution business is ….. He Pissed or They Pissed

"Canadian as new yorker" is a funny bit to me
Like Belgian as Pittsburgh fire marshall.
Kino Lorber now has the rights to To Live and Die in L.A. It's getting a 4k UHD within a few months. They announced it a few weeks ago.
For me personally, some of the most fun episodes to listen to are the ones for movies I’ve just watched for the first time. Lookin forward to checking this out later, happy Monday everyone
If you thought Tron was a snooze fest, wait’ll you get a load of this movie. Man that helicopter scene was riveting!!
My favorite kind of stangerbot today
mentally unwell?
To Live and Die in LA is getting a 4K disc release later this year from Kino Lorber.
what ya'll think his sentencing trial was like?
What even is this movie?
And I'm a movie buff!
