Black Eagle (1988)

Hell yeah

Wow this sucked

Holly Body. Utterly jacktacular.

When I was a kid, the 7th grade teacher told some boys his favorite sport was pocket pool. It was a Catholic school but they didn't offer to relocate him and just fired him. Shoulda been a priest!

I’m a sloth. But one whose mind races as fast as my exterior is slow.

The boyz asked if anyone had any experience with pro-wrestling and I have a little. I'm a 44 year old washed up stuntman and current janitor. Years ago I shot something at a wrestling school. I ended up making friends with some of the wrestlers. There's some crossover between movie stunts and pro-wrestling obviously. I had some background in grappling so I started training to become a pro-wrestler. I did not succeed. It was ten times harder than anything I ever did. I trained greco-roman wrestling, bjj and boxing for 15 years. Never got hurt once. 2 years training pro graps and I got wrecked. These folks destroy themselves. Over and over day in and day out. It is wild. You have to be a maniac. And the biz is incredibly shady so you also have to be at least a little shady too. My bump card filled up fast and I am basically a bag filled with broken glass now. I got to do one spot in front of a crowd. Just got clotheslined and layed out. It looked awesome and the reaction of the 20 people watching was exhilirating. I totally see why these lunatics do it. Five stars

re. waxer stories: my esthetician had to ban her ex's new girlfriend because the new girlfriend kept booking her for brazilians !

That Gorky Park movie sucks. William Hurt, Lee Marvin, Dennehy but Hurt is supposed to be Russian and he's just doing a vague British accent that used to be the norm in Hollywood and ruins everything.. for me anyway, I couldn't get past it the time or two I've tried it on TCM or whatever

You guys probably have seen it, but there is a “monster energy is satan” viral video from a few years back that reminds me of those quaint religious right days.

I appreciate the episode's editor adding the sound effects to punctuate Rodger's story! It was unexpected but pleasantly off!

Talking about sunburns: in high school there was this hot girl who had just broke up with her boyfriend and went to the Bahamas, and came back with a crazy burn with blisters. Everyone seemed to stay away from her because of this burn. But not your boy Dustin over here. Two weeks later the burn had healed and I was dating the hottest girl in school. Then she broke up with me right before prom so she could go with her ex. Pretty sweet still.

Turns out Funny Farm and The Money Pit have completely merged into one film in my mind.

I'm glad Stanger-Gorgon in gone, but unfortunately Stanger-Bot is gone too, did the ends justify the means???

Didn’t have getting sucked into a “Zapped!” wormhole on my ABZ bingo card this week. Love how Baio gets dunked on and doesn’t even address the allegation that Willie Aames out-acted him for 5 seasons lol https://twitter.com/scottbaio/status/1432780410597961731?s=21

Black Eagle, cuz Maltese Falcon was taken

Anyone else notice the sound effects during Rodger’s sauna story? Krychek doing some post production work. 👏🏼

Some useless info on one of Sho's sons, Kane Kosugi. After doing kid work in the 80s with pops, he's continued to have a career in entertainment. In the 90s he was on a U.S. version of the popular Japanese show Ultraman, as well as a couple actual Japanese productions like softcore cop flick Zero Woman. I lived in Japan from 1999-2000 which coincided with him moving there and finally making a big push to be a Japanese movie star. The Japanese girl I was seeing really liked him and for some reason I liked that he was born the same day as me. She told me that since he grew up in the U.S.A. Kane's Japanese wasn't great, so he was really working to get fluent and embrace his heritage more. I used to watch this reality show on TV there, where the cast would go around the world and try sports and other hobbies. They brought Kane along on their U.S.A. episodes, and I remember them all being impressed when he ordered In-n-Out for them in perfect English in CA. Since then he's had a pretty good career in various b-level English/Japanese movies and TV shows, like the DOA video game movie in 2006 with Jaime Pressly. He did a Tekken movie too, and a bunch of other ninja/action trash. Seems like a cool dude. Anyway, this has been my Kane Kosugi TedTalk.

The audio in the beginning is so weird that we had to make sure the audio was the actual audio for the movie and not a mixed up track or something

Everything I know about Malta I learned from the Joe Don Baker vehicle Final Justice.

I like to think the “Final Justice” boat chases are going on the entire time this movie is taking place, Joe Don Baker just tooling around the Maltese coast running over dead bodies in wetsuits. What a film industry that place had back then.

Wtf a Van Dammage I haven’t seen

An hour into this movie I was reminded of the sunken cost fallacy.

Let’s make those “Museum” shirts happen.

Bring back Stangerbot you cowards.

Bad boy

It's always good to hear Club International get a mention.

“Excuse me! Excuse me! Are you familiar with the 1983 Oceanography Congress in Stockholm?”

A 3 hour episode on the most unwatchable movie in ABZ history...I fucking love you guyz so much.

Wow, Sho Kasugi behind a wall is invincible! A movie!

Real Ones Don’t Comment on the Twitter Posts.

Can't wait. I got trees to cut down tomorrow and I'll get to this episode in a couple weeks. Keep punching!

Stanger мой любимый

Nothing matters, post on Sunday, fuck it.
