Episode 24: Road House

Whoops! The podcast doesn't start until 26 seconds or so. Sorry! Just fast forward or give it a little time.


In honor of the great Patrick Swayze we're goin' ahead and rollin' with Road House. I voted to do Point Break, but we figured this one would be funner to do, plus Swayze's got more of a starring role.

Zo and Dave join me as usual (can't get rid of those guys). We got no Jen, but Brandon joins us for the first time. He's the ginger about to join the army. Also, we brought Scott back. He actually works as a bouncer for a living, so it's pretty obvious.

Finally! A "great" Buick!

You drove across the country to work here?

Okay, this guy is making a face just like our buddy Scott Hanna. You hear Scott's voice in the podcast -- remember he's the bouncer. When you hear his voice picture him making this face.

Would you say this guy is pulling off the mustache?

The leftover silicone from her breasts went into her hair.

Check out the CGI on this guy's boot!

And there's the lovely heroine! She's sporting the picnic tablecloth look.

Yeah, this movie's got monster trucks! Jealous?

"... and he 'throat' it all away!"

This appears to be the most uncomfortable waterbed ever.

Episode 23: Kill Bill: Vol. 2

Volume 2 was, of course, inevitable. An inevitable gargantuan assuage. We only lost Maxim between volumes (that means he still hasn't seen Vol. 2 -- weird). Loved, loved, loved this one! But I think we're all glad both volumes are finally over. Here's looking forward to volumes 3-5!

"Face to face. No telling lies."

What's the filter/lens Tarantino used for the Pai Mei training sequence?

Elle wasn't ad-libbing. We got proof.

Foot fetish?

I will pay $200 dollars to see two chicks do this in real life.

Ahh, Daryl Hannah. Why couldn't you be this sexy in Splash?

Notice the bread! No joke. Very popular brand apparently.

You just know that Bill lost his bowels during the five point exploding heart move.

All's right in the jungle.

Episode 22: Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (Region 2)

Finally! We're delving into my personal favorite Tarantino flick. We dug into Jen's specially ordered from Japan region 2 version. Supposedly there's only a minute of difference between Japanese and American version and most of the additional material is near the end -- so there shouldn't be too much of a problem if you watch your region 1 DVD.

Anyway, Kill Bill rocks!

2. Vernita Green

4. Elle Driver

Some love just has to be given to the sweet anime montage.

Know what the bride's name is?

1. O-Ren Ishii

Gogo Yubari

Anyone remember the name of the movie I mentioned in the commentary that had this blonde chick wandering around a house with her eyes bleeding? I saw it as a kid. No idea what the name of the movie is.

Crazy 88s

Check it out! Color! Technicolor!

Pretty sure this head shot wasn't in the American version.


Why does she even need to make a list? Can't she remember the five people she wants to kill?

Episode 21: Legend (Theatrical Cut)

Okay, usually at this point in the blog we throw in there a bunch of screenshots from the movie with some witty comments. Unfortunately, this one was a rental, so we didn't have time to get the screenshots. Here's a cute one of Mia Sara downloaded from somewhere. The fact that it's a rental says a lot. None of us are actually fans of the movie, but we knew that this was a commentary that needed to be done. Of course most of us are still in the dark(ness) about what this flick is actually about. I think most of us are still unsure about whether or not we even like the movie Legend. Speaking for myself, I think I'm a fan. It's a lot like when I read Wuthering Heights in high school and absolutely loathed it, but for some reason it stayed with me for years. That's what this movie is. It's bad in ways, but far far far from forgettable.

Joining this time we got Zo, Jen, Dave and Mark. Joe joined us for the beginning while we got Regan and Rhett for the end.

Episode 20: Highlander (Director's Cut)

Who wants to live forever? I think it was Woody Allen who said something like "I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying." This time we set records again with how many of us there were. Joining me this time: Dave (our Highlander expert), Joe (our Highlander virgin), Jaime (our commentary virgin), Jen (quiet, but cute), Zo (the boundary breaker) and Mark (mumbly guy). Making quick cameos, we had Rhett and Regan. Freakin' love this movie. In my opinion "there can only be one" Highlander movie. Too good of a story to spread out over a half dozen other movies and TV shows.

So few people understand this movie that it needs a title card explaining what Sean Connery will eventually explain anyway.

This little girl actually made this tongue gesture to the greasy '80s wrestler.

Christopher Lambert. Is it Lambert or Lam-bear?

First rule of sword fighting. Don't ever hit the overhead steam pipe.

"Don't lose your head!" "Stay ahead of the game!" "Head-on, don't apply directly to the forehead!" Zo could go on and on.

The Rocky III training montage.

Introducing Beatie Edney as Heather, the movie's hot chick!

The production designer really loved bowls of apples.

Is your Highlander sense tingling? That's Venom right behind you!

Lambert is of course fighting Clancy Brown as The Kurgan. He's freakin' awesome. You realize he also played Kelvin in Lost? Yeah! Blows my mind.

The quickening in effect... the quickening sure hates glass.
