This movie was a wild mess and I loved every second of it.
Hell yeah
To clarify, Jeb Brown is not the Cannon Films Captain America. Bizarrely, that is Matt Salinger, son of author JD Salinger. Jeb Brown played Captain America in a TV movie on 1979, which is what Rogers’ was referencing.
The "cowboy flip" is called a monkey flip. At least in wrestling and stunts.
Fun Fact: Reb Brown received a scholarship to play fullback at the University of Southern California during the 1967 season. He ended up losing the starting running back position to another student, O. J. Simpson....

Stanger-as-Ransom mewling about Spree and York Peppermint Patties was really making me laugh
Me watching “this, where have I seen this French priest before??” Quick search: from Yor, the Hunter from the future! Another Reb brown “vehicle”
Gabrus. My high school was all about doing bench, squat, and cleans for the football team. We even had the 600, 800, and 1000 pound clubs for your cumulative maxes in each. Tshirts and everything 😂
The Peyton Place movie from the 50's is a great watch. If we ever have a Dramacember it would be a good pick.
Stanger no worries, I got the A$AP quote
At first glance I'm like, this has to be a Vinegar Syndrome or Severin movie. Severin has come by my local theater a few times to host a screening and then they sell blu rays in the lounge. I bought the Changeling and then Peanut Butter Solution from them. Action Faction, go to Vinegar Syndrome or Severin and take a chance on weird blu ray. Or go with a known like Beastmaster 4K, always awesome packaging.
Changeling is great. Peanut butter solution is weird as hell, melted my brain a little. Have spent a ton of money on Vinegar Syndrome releases
Severin has released a lot of Bruno Mattei's movies on bluray. Robowar is a funny Robocop/Predator ripoff. Shocking Dark is a Terminator/Aliens ripoff. All will shock you that they took place in the same decade as the inspiring movies
American! American! American! American! American! American! Amer…
This one makes me wanna hear you do Bronx Warriors.
There’s still a big cock fighting area in Manila. Probably the exact same building.
Why was that guy stroking that microphone so intensely
Oh god.. I ALMOST did an edit test for Mr Beast 🤣🤣. All I knew about it was “I guess he’s popular? Is this what editing gifs are now?”. Asked about wages and they disappeared 😂
What even was this movie?
Christopher Connelly looks like he is dying from heat stroke
All Cops Are Big Show
my mom's favorite is peanut brittle, used to bring her some from church every sunday, her teeth are absolutely fucked right now haha
Come up on the next episode of Video Archives, Quentin gives us his 10 reasons why Strike Commando is a better film than Platoon
It's Dave Ryder from Space Mutiny!

I think this was the real movie UHF was parodying.
I was gonna say this is just a collection of deleted scenes from the real Tropic Thunder
Is this the our first movie with a torture montage?
“A torture montage” is my new description for any shitty movie.
Watched this randomly a few months ago. The most over-the-plate abz movie ya can get

"Jesus, you scared the shit out of me!"
