nostalgia that you forgot you even had.

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.000
But we can't do the show alone. Of course, there is a

4
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:47.880
gentleman who joins me. He is
a gentleman who has been known to give

5
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:55.960
private consultations to the Aquinet Advisor board. He's been seen on more than one

6
00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:03.520
occasion using that same Aquinet product.
Robert Smith here at the one and only

call him the ever wondrous chang Ola Olah.

00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.319
the only way to get to unity. Tusky. I have to tell you

13
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:42.519
that shirt is adorable. I am
sporting a lime green shirt with an African

14
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:48.640
lion design on it from an Africa, from a real African tribe, and

15
00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:53.239
the shirt is of course branded by
Nike. Anyway, it looked tough,

16
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.920
Yes, yes, especially with a
lime green and my aloha. Thank you

remind you, guys that one of the

31
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:13.639
great things that makes today's show special
is we have two fantastic guests coming up,

32
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.879
so you can't. You don't want
to miss it from the All Eighties

33
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:22.560
Movies Podcast. You don't want to
miss it. There's anybody that knows movies

34
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.240
into these two cats. You thought
Cisco and Ebert from the eighties drove you

35
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:30.439
nuts, that's one thing. These
two cats than those cats, Oh definitely.

36
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:34.919
And they're younger too. And the
best thing is the choices that they

37
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:38.919
like we actually like because remember that
when we used to listen and watch Cisco

38
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.199
and Ebert and they would like a
movie, we'd hate that movie. Remember

39
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:46.479
that. Yeah, and it always
seemed like they hated the movie everybody else

40
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.199
liked. That's exactly what happened.

48
00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:17.079
our break, but we have a
phone call and if I'm not mistaken,

49
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:20.120
let's see what's the time. Yeah, it's exactly the time that this casting

50
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:26.079
agent, one of the biggest casting
agents and managers from Hollywood, knew that

51
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.600
the All Eighties Movies podcast was going
to be here today. This is back

52
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:30.720
to the eighties. Who do we
have in the line? Oh? You

53
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:35.319
doing part now? It's good to
talk to you. It's Kid averaged who

54
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:39.519
I'm talking about? Daddy? Oh, one of the biggest, the biggest

55
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.680
style finders of all time. And
I don't even have a telescope. If

56
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:45.839
you dig what I'm saying, you
and your pot a couple of swing and

57
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.560
daddy there's lots of teller right there
and love to put it behind the screen

58
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.639
and take a naughty pick. Yet
all right, kid, So what can

59
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:54.639
we do for you here? Because
you know we were just going to go

60
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.720
on break Well anyway, Yeah,
the reason I'm giving you Pats a screen

61
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.959
live is because it's all around the
media. Is that I'm not talking about

62
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.439
the entertainment tonight. The new Cats
are on fire. You're physically like a

63
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:10.199
bob the two is everything delicious on
it? And I found that you were

64
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.839
gonna end of your two swinging cats. I though Hollywood like the back ends

65
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:17.319
of an alley where they could get
smacked and get corracked. If you're gonna

66
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:20.240
climb to the top, Daddy,
you're gonna climb with kipper rude out to

67
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:25.040
sky. Oh I hear you got
so much talent you can't even contain it.

68
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.480
It's almost like a baggy holding water
or not a balloon. If you're

69
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:31.759
dig by seed. What do you
think the big differences are between talent today

70
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.959
that are on strike and the talent
back end the eighties from movies in the

71
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:39.480
eighties. Well, Daddy, I
love to tell you I shoot scrappers of

72
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.920
the hip. If I've got a
six shooter, I'm gonna go all six

73
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.839
shots anyway. What I see,
big, Daddy, it's a big box

74
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.600
that would captivates people, turns them
into a bunch of gypsies. It's all

75
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.759
about the greed, baby, and
the sneed you know, it's not all

76
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:55.839
about the ever loving talented the deed
anymore, Daddy. I think everybody's a

77
00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:59.639
little bit greedy. Everybody's a little
bit hung up on their own personal with

78
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.720
jail and self entitlement bullshit. Hey, you know what, I'm gonna go,

79
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:08.199
get us a couple of jolt cole
as we just gotten there on a

80
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:12.000
highs my friend, do my favorite
get me some of gurtos as well.

81
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.000
Right the gift shop there in the
corner. I requests a certain song that

82
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.759
goes out to Tintletown. Daddio,

83
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:25.439
want to send this song out to
all the stars and Stylin's dreamers and creamers.

84
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:29.399
Something about Hollywood tinsel towns doesn't From

rolling their Hollwood the bigness tonight,
where we're winding the clock and stepping into

88
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:56.680
a time where big hair, big
music, and even bigger blockbuster movies became

89
00:06:56.680 --> 00:06:59.800
a sort of a soundtrack of our
life, if you know what I mean.

90
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:01.560
So right now, get ready for

102
00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:01.800
you know that these movie aficionados we
have with us today have dedicated countless hours

103
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:07.439
to exploring and analyzing the very films
that have become a foundation of our cinematic

104
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:13.399
memories. So together today we're gonna
be talking about those unforgettable characters and even

105
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.519
those iconic soundtracks, believe it or
not, magical moments that made the eighties

106
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:22.160
a truly remarkable era for movie lovers
everywhere. So having said that, guys,

107
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:26.680
let's take it away and let's talk
a little bit about some of those

108
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:30.519
A movies, those B movies,
and some honorable mentions at the end.

109
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.240
Man, this is exciting. I
can't wait to break it down with you,

110
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:37.840
find gentle and that are truly committed
to the best decade of all time

111
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.440
in the world of the universe,
of this planet. I just wanted to

112
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:45.679
say real quick, yeah, it
is an honor and privilege to be here

113
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:50.320
because I was listening to your Guitar
Wizards pod, which was outstanding, and

114
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:54.919
when I switched over too, because
during my day job, I'm driving some

115
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:00.200
passengers, if you will, and
I switched over to the eight. He's

116
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.519
on eight on Sirius XM, and
I could not tell the difference between that

117
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.240
station and your podcast. It was
amazing. Well, we appreciate it all

118
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:11.000
eighties, all the time. It
was a real treat listening to your pod,

119
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:16.399
and so it is a real treat
to be here with you fine gentlemen.

120
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.120
Today. Well let's get into it. Let's make the stars come out

121
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:22.000
today. And you know what,
let me let me ask you right off

122
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:26.240
the bat, if you guys were
to name your three movies off the top

123
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:30.960
of your head, that whenever you
watch them, you can watch him over

124
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:33.080
and over again, and every time
you watch it, it just you don't

125
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:37.080
get tired of it, and it
left some type of a mark with you.

126
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:41.320
Guys, what would those three movies
be, Bill, you want to

127
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:46.639
take us for me? It would
be and hopefully not stepping on Jason's answers,

128
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:54.960
Ghostbusters, ghosts, Hello, Ghostbusters, They're real? Do you have

129
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:00.960
They're here? They're dangerous. Try
to imagine all life as you know,

130
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.159
it's stopping instantaneously and every molecule in
your body exploding at the speed of light.

131
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:07.000
Right, that's bad, Okay,
all right, important safety tip.

132
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:16.480
Thanks you Rais of the Last Art
and Back to the Future. Are you

133
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:22.519
telling me that you built a time
machine? Kind of a deliriant those you

134
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:26.240
can watch forever, every site the
lines with it while I'm watching it?

135
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.879
Just all great classics. You know
something interesting when you said back to the

136
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.519
Future. You know they interviewed Quentin
Tarantino and when they asked them, is

137
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.039
there any perfect movie out there?
I learned some things that I did not

138
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.600
know. Maybe I should know.
Idea is a perfect perfect Yeah? Perfect

139
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:48.840
movie. I thought that was very
interesting that having this great director mentioned an

140
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.960
eighties movie, having seen them so
many times, having seen the Back to

141
00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:58.000
the Future movie so many times,
and being considered perfect by a person such

142
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:01.200
just him, I thought that was
interesting. Yeah, and we talked about

143
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:03.960
the movie on our podcast, and
just the script itself. If you were

144
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.639
a budding screenwriter and you want to
look at some scripts, that's one of

145
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:11.440
the first ones we recommend that you
check out and read, and that really

146
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.360
helps you do the the you know, the three acts of a film.

147
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.039
You know, the setup, the
problem you have in the second act,

148
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:24.720
and then to resolve it in the
third and that is definitely one of the

149
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.559
best that Folloso steps. I totally
agree with you, but I think the

150
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:33.039
casting director did an outstanding job on
casting that movie. What do you what

151
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:37.039
do your take? What's your take
on that? Jason or Bill, either

152
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.320
one of you cats. Oh,
there's no question about it. I mean

153
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.919
there's I mean so many stories of
from behind the scenes of Back to the

154
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:48.559
Future, and Bill, you had
two out of three of my top three

155
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.080
eighties movies of all time. And
because Back to the Future, Yes,

156
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.360
I mean, one of the famous
stories is the fact that Eric Stoltz shot

157
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:05.000
for well over a weeks and unfortunately
just didn't test well with the cast and

158
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:11.840
crew and didn't quite have that levity
nor comic timing that was necessary for the

159
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:13.240
tone of this film. And it
was not his fault. I mean,

160
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.320
they had cast him with good reason. Eric Stoltz is a very talented actor

161
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.879
in the star of so many classic
eighties films, But when they plug in

162
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.480
Michael J. Fox, it becomes
a completely different animal, and it becomes

163
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.320
magical. So I agree that casting. One of my favorite casting choices in

164
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:41.159
this is the ultimately weird Crispin Glover
Dina James at Oil. I mean,

165
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.240
he is such a strange dude,
but wow, he just adds his own

166
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.759
flavor to it. I used to
wait tables for years at a restaurant here

167
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.399
in the valley. Tom if Wilson
came in at one point, Biff,

168
00:12:54.799 --> 00:13:00.759
since you're new here, I'm going
to cut you a break today, So

169
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.919
why don't you make like a tree
get out of here? The one and

170
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.759
only Biff. I mean, these
guys I had biggest crush on Leah Thompson,

171
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:11.679
Are you kidding? I think a
lot of us Yeah, and so

172
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:16.039
the casting is brilliant. I'm glad
you brought that up, but I have

173
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:18.399
to bring up Alan Silvestri's score.
I'm not kidding you. I was singing

174
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:24.320
it on my way back to my
apartment preparing for this podcast because it is

175
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.200
truly magical, fantastical. It takes
you away. It's all about the escapism.

176
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:33.480
When you hear those three notes the
you're like, I just got chills.

177
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:37.200
I just got chills. I want
to watch Back to the Future right

178
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.440
now. That's how great it is. Jason, what about you? What

179
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:45.399
are your three picks? We know
right well, yeah, but I'll throw

180
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:48.320
a curveball. Then I'm going to
switch it up. I got plenty of

181
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:54.080
backups here, but my number one
top A list movie from the nineteen eighties

182
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.320
has to be my favorite film of
all time. Yes, I grew up

183
00:13:56.360 --> 00:14:01.360
as a Star Wars kid. Big
surprise, it is the Empire strikes Back

184
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:11.080
from nineteen eighty. Knew the power
of the dark Side will be one never

185
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:16.200
told you what happened to your father. He told me enough, He told

186
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:33.799
me him, No I am your
father. Not true. That impatible suits

187
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:43.679
your feet, you know, would
be true hands down. That will always

188
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:48.440
be my number one. And outside
of that, gosh, I mean it's

189
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:52.120
tough. I have to say,
die Hard, it's there, It's right

190
00:14:52.240 --> 00:15:03.879
up there, goother the coast and
get together. Have a few left at

191
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:07.480
the dock. When a man too
man, when a dog in the part

192
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:16.840
the very Slowy Wood Hans Bobby,
I'm your white knight. Do you really

193
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:20.279
think you have a chance against us? Mister cowboy? You became motherfucker.

194
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.120
It's it's a man I could just
substitute. And I'm gonna, I'm you

195
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:28.159
know what I'm gonna put in there. I'm gonna put Ferris Wheeler's day off

196
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:33.159
in there. I'm gonna throw a
comedy in there. Life was pretty fat.

197
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:39.480
If you don't stop them look around
once in a while, you could

198
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:41.919
miss it. It's just one of
those perfect coming of age John Hughes films.

199
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:46.799
And I have to do this because
I owe it to mister John Hughes.

200
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:50.440
And I grew up in the suburbs
of Chicago, and what a time,

201
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.360
What a time to grow up in
the area that was the was such

202
00:15:54.480 --> 00:16:00.519
a played a character and so many
of John Hughes's films that the Chicago area

203
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:04.559
that being or the suburbs. So
you're in Chicago and being the first Buller

204
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:10.039
had the set there. There's another
movie, If I'm Not Mistaken, was

205
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:14.679
also done there, and it was
one of my favorite movies of all time.

206
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:18.679
And consider me childish because it is
the child in me, the teenager,

207
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:23.720
the rambunctious teenager who would love to
create at that age a girl out

208
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:32.759
of a doll and I'm talking about
weird science, the Booeshound's Return, Joe,

209
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:40.559
my girls. How about a nice
greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty

210
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.600
ash tray? Do you tell you
about the movement today? You got him?

211
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:52.080
He's obviously talking about no ship.
No you too, Donkey Dicks couldn't

212
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:59.360
get laid in a morgue. You're
right, you are an absolutely absolutely up.

213
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:15.480
He did ask whole who couldn't heard
at any point you would hear collected

214
00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:22.119
you knowing that Kelly Lebron was just
like gob dead gorgeous, not just Connell.

215
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.160
What would be your three, uh
top movies? Well, very's I

216
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:27.960
just I just mentioned one of them, but it's not my favorite movie of

217
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:30.720
all time. My favorite movie of
all time Bill mentioned it, and that

218
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:41.480
is Raiders of the Lost Art.
I would say number one, Well,

219
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:45.240
you know what it's It's tough because
I love Raiders of the Lost Art,

220
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:49.160
but I also love just as much
Return of the Jedi and a real funny

221
00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:52.960
story with Return of the Jedi.
The reason I love that movie so much,

222
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:56.640
it's because on opening day for Return
of the Jedi, I'll never forget

223
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:02.240
because one of my cousins took me
to watch this movie at Rock Mall and

224
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:04.960
they had a theater at this Eagle
Rock Mall and we waited, I want

225
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:10.240
to see about three or four hours
in line to watch the movie. And

226
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:15.000
that created just a big impact in
me at at such a young age.

227
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:22.039
So Return on the Jedi definitely Raiders
of the Lost Ark, and it's between

228
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:25.799
weird science and the Goonees, believe
it or not. I would have to

229
00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:33.440
say my three top movies are from
from This Gentleman with the Twins with a

230
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.920
good friend of mine, Danny DeVito. I loved myself and calling the Barbarian.

231
00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.799
I loved making The Predator because the
bad guy the iglant against had the

232
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:47.119
long gay like Chang. What did
you think of my other smash, Kindy

233
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:51.640
Golden Cup. That's a fun film
that's so funny. There's a lot of

234
00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:55.559
connections there. Actually, Richard Tyson
plays a bad guy in that film and

235
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:00.240
one of my cult favorites of all
time from the eighties, Three o'clock High.

236
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.200
But that's I'm jumping ahead. And
I just wanted to stick with the

237
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:08.200
Schwarzenegger topic and give a lot of
props to my partner Bill bant Here because

238
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:14.599
he does the heavy lifting for our
podcast, our show, and we celebrated

239
00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:19.759
our one hundredth episode just last night
we recorded it, and all right,

240
00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:29.079
by celebrating a Schwarzenegger classic and what
put James Cameron on the map, and

241
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:33.559
that would be The Terminator, I'll
be back from nineteen eighty four and that's

242
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:37.599
in my top ten. That's in
my top ten for sure. So I

243
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:41.079
just since we were on the subject
of Arnold, I had to bring that

244
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.079
up. Well, we come back, we're gonna be talking more about movies,

245
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:48.279
So stick around. If DCCs a
free agent, being his minister,

246
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:52.799
Herbert West is a medical student with
a perfectly good head on his shoulders and

247
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:57.680
another one in a dish on his
desk, What are you thinking? How

248
00:19:57.720 --> 00:20:11.799

to their podcasts as well. Gentlemen, thank you for being with us here.

267
00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:19.599
And back to the eighties, we're
talking movies and Jason, right before

268
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:25.160
the break, you mentioned the Terminator. Sincerely, I thought that was like

269
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:29.079
a even back then, I thought
that was a B rated movie. Well,

270
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:33.599
that's that's interesting and that you can
make that commentary and you could make

271
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:40.359
an argue ament for that. It's
interesting because if I had a critique revisiting

272
00:22:40.400 --> 00:22:41.799
the film, and this is what's
fun about what we get to do is

273
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:47.960
you know, share our childhood perspective
and then our adult perspective watching the film

274
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:52.079
today and how it's changed. And
because now having gone you know, on

275
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.680
this journey from innocence to experience,
we just know so much and technology has

276
00:22:56.720 --> 00:23:03.440
progressed so far, and the Terminator
has very dated special effect. However,

277
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:07.039
they were innovative at the time.
You have Stan Winston who does the endoskeleton

278
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:11.839
of the T eight hundred, which
is you know, ahead of its time

279
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:15.119
and a wonderful design, and the
fact of the matter is what separates I

280
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:19.559
Believe the Terminator from being you know, or I should say, elevates it

281
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:23.480
to an a film is the story. It's simply the story. It's the

282
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:29.400
concept. It's something that was hadn't
been seen before, and it's so well

283
00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:34.640
thought out and detailed and intricate,
and it's you can James Cameron does an

284
00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:41.200
excellent job directing as actors, and
they sell this concept that, despite its

285
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:51.440
flaws visually at moments it the suspension
of disbelief stays intact thanks to the story

286
00:23:51.640 --> 00:23:53.839
elements and the pacing of it.
And Bill, I'm going to twuss it

287
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.160
over to you because you had some
great commentary when we talked about it about

288
00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:02.440
especially like the first act of the
film. Yeah, one thing I just

289
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:06.279
loved about the movie is if you
knew nothing about the Terminator going in,

290
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:10.400
it's the first act of the movie
is almost like a mystery because you have

291
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:15.000
Arnold Schwartzenigger dropped in and you're like, Okay, what's this guy all about?

292
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:18.640
And then you have Michael Bean as
Kyle Reese. He's dropped in all

293
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:22.359
of a sudden and you're like,
all right, what is this about?

294
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:25.839
They don't explain to you what is
going on. All you know is they're

295
00:24:25.839 --> 00:24:30.960
after this girl named Sarah Connor.
You don't really know who's good, you

296
00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:34.039
don't really know who's bad. You
don't know what their intentions are until the

297
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:41.400
confrontation at the Tech now Are Club
and then you realize, okay, here's

298
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.240
both of these people have been sent
from the future, ones to protect this

299
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:51.480
girl, the others to kill them. And then the exposition happens, and

300
00:24:51.559 --> 00:24:55.519
then the whole story about, look, we need to save you because your

301
00:24:55.599 --> 00:25:00.359
son is going to lead us to
the uprise the machines. It's going to

302
00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:03.880
be the leader of it. So
it's cool that it's it almost starts out

303
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:08.920
as a mystery, and then the
sci fi aspect of it, and the

304
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:18.039
story is believable enough that you're into
it. And the fact that even though

305
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:22.480
Schwarzenegger plays the bad guy, he's
so interesting you're almost kind of rooting for

306
00:25:22.599 --> 00:25:26.480
him at the same time you're rooting
for Kyle Reese to save this woman,

307
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:33.240
Sarah Connor. So that just makes
it a fabulous movie. It's great casting

308
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:37.240
and a great story and the special
effects, Yeah, they're dated, but

309
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.480
they're still pretty cool. So When
Terminator two came out, that's the one

310
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:42.920
I really liked, because I didn't
I didn't want to see I didn't want

311
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:47.680
to see Arnold Schwarzenegger as a bad
guy. When part two came out,

312
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:51.720
to me, that was just phenomenal. But let me mention to you a

313
00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:56.480
few honorable mentions of these following movies, and you guys give me maybe a

314
00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:02.200
quick rundown if you can, of
movies that I somewhere may be considered as

315
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:04.920
B rated movies, but they had
a pretty big cast as well. One

316
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:10.319
of them directed by Ridley Scott.
It was Blade Runner nineteen eighty two.

317
00:26:14.079 --> 00:26:21.000
Then we've got nineteen eighty four,
The Adventures of Buckaroo Bonzai's a Roger Doctor.

318
00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:22.440
Don't talk on that. I never
know what I mut be attached to

319
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:33.920
the adventure philosopher, No matter where
you go, there you are. And

320
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:38.680
another nineteen eighty four film, which
was a space adventure, The Last Starfighter

321
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:45.359
had a dream, Really are leaving
here? Aren't you to be as far

322
00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:52.119
away from here as possible? You
get your chains when it comes, you

323
00:26:52.240 --> 00:27:02.240
gotta grab it with both hands.
It started with a game you pulled a

324
00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:07.599
bustle that but it wasn't just any
game. You have been recruited by the

325
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.799
Starley defend the Frontier against Sor and
the cold down arm on it. And

326
00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:18.440
then one night, Centauri is the
name we have to talk about a matter

327
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:22.279
of utmost importance. Step into my
office. I've seen of one who made

328
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:33.079
it the Last Starfighter. Excellent choices. I actually had Buck Rubin's Hide Down

329
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:37.799
on my list. Lead Runner,
Oh con Yes, the whole atmosphere,

330
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:42.680
newar element of it, Harrison Ford. So many versions of it that came

331
00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:45.319
out. You had the directors version, the extended version, and then the

332
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.839
theatrical version. I love them all, to be honest, I'm still a

333
00:27:49.920 --> 00:27:56.319
belief that Decker was not an android. Yeah, and that'll go with me

334
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.480
to my grave. And then Rucker
Harver's speech at the end is amazing and

335
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:04.440
beautiful. Great way to close out
that movie. Blade Runners. Definitely,

336
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:08.240
you would say, certainly a cult
movie. You just watched that movie and

337
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:11.680
you're like, how the hell this
movie bomb? And just you know,

338
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:15.359
it was just ahead of its time, beautifully shot, a cool story,

339
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:18.680
just great performances. Back then when
we used to go rent videos and this

340
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.680
is before I'm talking before Hollywood video
Before Blockbuster, we used to go to

341
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:26.160
these little, small mom and pop
shops to rent videos, the ones that

342
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:30.839
are so small that they only had
one copy of each film, right,

343
00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:34.680
So if you didn't make it on
time, you were so pissed off,

344
00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:40.279
sometimes bummed out. Sometimes you were
there left with really nothing that you wanted

345
00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:42.440
to see. You but you went
to the video store and you had to

346
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:47.920
rent something. So I'll mention a
couple of films of the kind that I

347
00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:52.240
was left with to choose from,
and when I had to return to them,

348
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:53.039
I was like, Oh my gosh, why did I waste my money

349
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:56.839
on some of those? These are
not the movies that I got Behind the

350
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:00.680
Red Curtain, correct, No,
No, I was too young to you

351
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:06.279
know what I curtain we had the
swinging doors. Yeah, I did always

352
00:29:06.319 --> 00:29:08.559
want to go back there, but
no, I was always a little too

353
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:17.240
small for that. One of the
films is legend. Through the ages past,

354
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:23.599
evil have been at work amongst us
through the passages of time. Many

355
00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:33.960
have attempted to probe and distinguish between
the fact time bandits. Time bandits can

356
00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:40.519
offer you much much more. It's
not the special effects so flying or droids

357
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:48.839
which makes time bandits a unique cinema
te cinematic you know, pertaining to the

358
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:55.400
cinema cinematic experience. It's the makeup. Yes, so you've never seen anything

359
00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:59.119
like it. Men made up to
look like monsters, Monsters made up to

360
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:02.519
look like men lookalike, men made
up to look different, different, men

361
00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:07.160
made up the toxic Avenger ninety pound
weekly. Everyone hated Melvine. Yeah,

362
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:11.759
I'm gonna take this mop and shop
it down your throat, they teased him.

363
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:15.799
I'm gonna do it with you,
Okay. They taunted him. They

364
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:19.680
tormented him until he had a horrifying
accident and fell into a bat of nuclear

365
00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:29.640
waste, transforming little Melvine into a
hideously deformed creature of superhuman side and strength.

366
00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:37.559
Became the toxic of injur And here's
one one film that I thought was

367
00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:42.519
an a film but in reality became
a cult classic later on. From nineteen

368
00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:47.680
eighty one, Escape from New York
with Kurt Russell. You best remember once

369
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:49.920
you're inside, you're on your own. Oh you mean I can't count on

370
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:53.920
you? Oh good, You're gonna
kill me now, snake, I'm too

371
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:59.119
tired. Maybe later. Yes,
that was a gras, so was legend.

372
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:03.119
I have a great story about Lyndon. I went to watch it on

373
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:07.279
cable because we had one of those
free preview weekends. But the movie wasn't

374
00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:11.519
on until four o'clock in the morning, so I stayed up an hour in

375
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:18.960
the free preview was over and the
movie cut off. The thing that still

376
00:31:19.000 --> 00:31:23.119
amazes me, I still can't believe
that's Tim Curry is from Curry. Yes,

377
00:31:23.440 --> 00:31:30.240
that was the most amazing makeup of
any film ever, Probably my favorite

378
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:36.039
representation of the devil, so to
speak, in any film, because that

379
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:41.880
is your worst nightmare. And the
makeup, the scale of him, he

380
00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:48.559
is enormous in the film and just
so intimidating and overpowering. But the horns,

381
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:52.440
are you kidding me? Just out
of the like they were literally growing

382
00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:56.440
out of his head. You could
see the just coming out of his bat.

383
00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:00.480
Makeup is wonderful. But Tim Curry, you what can you say about

384
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:04.640
him? And in the voice,
I don't know how much modulation they did

385
00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:12.000
with that. Dreams on my speciotogy. Through dreams, I influence mankind.

386
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:22.440
My dream is on maternity with you. I offer you this gross princess,

387
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:30.279
my heart, my soul, my
love. His voice is overpowering. The

388
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:34.960
film itself is really wild. It's
out there, doesn't work. I'm not

389
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:40.519
sure if it's entirely successful in its
storytelling, but I was I didn't care

390
00:32:40.599 --> 00:32:44.839
as a kid. I'm watching it
visually, I'm like, this is where

391
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:49.440
is this mystical land? And this
this unicorn? And they're on this was

392
00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:52.079
it like mission? But um,
there's I mean, gosh, I believe

393
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:55.319
that one of the speaking there's some
wild music in it. I believe one

394
00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:59.559
of the members of Yes sings like
the theme song. I want to say

395
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:04.240
John Aderson, but anyway, it's
one of the members from Yes does the

396
00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:09.039
theme song. But then it also
the female lead is one of Oh gosh,

397
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:15.279
Saharah. Yeah, whoa boy,
major crush on Mia Sara speaking of

398
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:22.319
Ferrispieler's day off. So yeah,
legend is wild. And then but Tiscano,

399
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:30.359
you mentioned the one. I mean
time bandits Yes hidding me absolutely talk

400
00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:37.680
about a wild mind trip of a
movie, and I keep urging Bill to

401
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:38.920
put it on our schedule. I
know he will. We just have to

402
00:33:39.119 --> 00:33:43.240
fit all these other great films in
there. But we're going to get around

403
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:45.200
to covering that, and I just
can't wait. Being one of the all

404
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:51.599
time cult classic films from way back
in nineteen eighty one, Terry Gilliam directing

405
00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:54.799
and the main antagonist I'm a fan
of because of his voice work. Actually

406
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:59.880
that's David Warner, and he's a
wonderful actor in a wonderful presence on screen.

407
00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:07.039
But he's also featured in Tron,
the nineteen eighty two Disney film and

408
00:34:07.440 --> 00:34:10.599
one of my favorite sci fi films. And yeah, he does the voice

409
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:15.119
of the master control program end of
line, and also plays the role of

410
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:21.559
Sark in the computer civilization as well
as Dillinger in the real world. He

411
00:34:21.800 --> 00:34:25.360
like plays three different parts in Tron, Sean Connery having a small role in

412
00:34:25.440 --> 00:34:30.239
it. It was definitely a weird
film to see, as you know,

413
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:35.000
it was nineteen eighty one. So
I'm I'm about ten years old and this

414
00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:38.119
movie is just taking me out to
a place I've never been. And the

415
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:40.639
little you know, the dwarf,
the Dwarves kind of freaked me out a

416
00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:44.840
little bit. The you know,
young boy joins a group of time traveling

417
00:34:44.920 --> 00:34:50.360
dwarves quest through history, etc.
So it was kind of freaky. So

418
00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:53.119
Bill and Jason, I'm gonna mention
one more film that is a total B

419
00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:58.519
or maybe even a C. But
this following film, which is nineteen eighty

420
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:02.719
eight, it was a or a
comedy film, and I creep me out

421
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:07.280
till today. I hate clowns.
And that's right, you know the film.

422
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:14.440
I'm gonna be talking about Killer Clowns
from outer Space tonight like any other

423
00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:29.119
night. Then something happened, you
see that, something different. It's because

424
00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:43.039
shooting start? Why here? Why
now? Why clowns? Why they've been

425
00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:52.280
knocking him dead all over the universe. Knock my flog off soon? They

426
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:58.760
okay? Doing it at a theater
near you. Tiller Clowns from outer Space?

427
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:16.199
Maybe they're just cruising through the galaxy
and stopped here from my team,

428
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:32.280
you don't need a police bell,
you need a psychiatrist. They want to

429
00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:37.679
play games. They're messing with the
wrong guy. What are you in for?

430
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:46.320
Killer Clowns from outer Space? It's
crazy, So freaking Lily love Killer

431
00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:51.760
Clowns from outer Space. I introduced
Jason to Killer Clowns from outer Space.

432
00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:58.559
That was a late night cable rewatch
over and over again. That movie is

433
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:05.079
so bizarre. How someone came up
with that premise? Drugs? Yeah,

434
00:37:05.280 --> 00:37:09.400
that's exactly where it had to come
from. That's the only explanation there can

435
00:37:09.559 --> 00:37:15.800
be. But there's just something about
it that's just bizarre yet a lot of

436
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:21.599
fun. I'm a big fan of
it, and as I now, forever

437
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:27.320
you know, that movie is like
a fever dream, no question about it.

438
00:37:27.880 --> 00:37:30.840
The concept is sort of wild,
but there are true there are a

439
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:36.559
few very freaky moments in the film, because clowns are inherently scary. Eye

440
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:40.079
it was all I always had a
fear of clowns growing up, and very

441
00:37:40.159 --> 00:37:45.800
creepy. But they had like it
became such a cult classic that there are

442
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:49.800
fans out there that know all of
the names of the different clowns. Yeah,

443
00:37:49.880 --> 00:37:52.320
I mean, it's a full cast
of characters, and I recall,

444
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:57.000
Yeah, there's one scene in particular
help me out, Bill where one of

445
00:37:57.079 --> 00:38:02.559
the clowns has literally his hand I
think in the back of like the sheriff.

446
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:07.440
It was the Oh, yes,
the jerk sheriff. He'd killed him

447
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:10.880
and actually had killed the sheriff,
and then puts his hand, inserts his

448
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:15.599
hand like actually into the body of
the sheriff and does a grand triloquist act

449
00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:21.239
oh with him with his prelass song
voice and it's like, what the hell

450
00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:24.400
is going And it's like at some
points it's it's a terrible movie. It's

451
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:29.239
such a it's a C level movie. But then other moments that like,

452
00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:32.320
this is really scary. What I
don't know how to feel about this movie.

453
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:37.679
Yeah, my favorite is the hand
Puppet, not the hand Puppet,

454
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:42.159
when he's the Shadow Puppets and he
makes it into a dinosaur and kill eats

455
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:45.480
all the people watching at the bus
stop. That's that's one of my favorites.

456
00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:49.039
I was like, oh, wow, that's really cool, very imentative,

457
00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:53.360
very dark, very sinister. But
my favorite part of that movie was

458
00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:59.039
exactly that. When he did getting
the sheriff that way. I was like

459
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.960
loving. My daughters were like,
whoa, this is Dad's having a blast.

460
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:07.000
I'll buy himself while they're on the
couch. It's almost like watching immediate

461
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:09.000
wrestling, where you're like, man, this is so wrong, but man,

462
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:15.000
this is intriguing. Two honorable mentions
of films. They could be whatever.

463
00:39:15.079 --> 00:39:19.079
They could be your favorite. They
could be BC rated movies or just

464
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:23.480
films that for some reason popped into
your head and you think they deserve an

465
00:39:23.559 --> 00:39:30.440
honorable mention. So I would say
for the cult classic, a movie that

466
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:34.079
did not do well because it came
out in nineteen eighty two, right after

467
00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:37.920
right before Et and got slammed.
And I think it's one of the best

468
00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:49.320
horror movies of the eighties. And
that's the John Carpenter's The Thing. Twelve

469
00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:53.519
men have just discovered something. For
one hundred thousand years, it was buried

470
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:59.719
in the snow and ice. Now
it has found a place to live in

471
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:06.440
side where no one can see it, or hear it or feel it.

472
00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:10.000
I know I'm human. Some of
you are still human. This thing doesn't

473
00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:14.880
want to show itself. It wants
to hide inside an imitation. You'll fight

474
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:17.719
if it has to, but it's
vulnerable. How to open It takes us

475
00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:22.840
over and it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill. That movie

476
00:40:22.920 --> 00:40:25.639
just gets better every time I watch
it. All the tension, the location

477
00:40:25.800 --> 00:40:30.679
that they're up in the Arctic.
They have nowhere to go because if they

478
00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:34.679
do, they're going to freeze.
To get just the paranoia throughout the movie,

479
00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:42.599
who is infected by this alien creature? The effects itself are mind blowing

480
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:45.280
for that time. Even now,
I think they worked great. I would

481
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:50.159
say too, that's someone came using
some drugs to figure out some of that

482
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:54.519
stuff. So I would certainly put
that on there. Another movie that I

483
00:40:54.800 --> 00:41:00.559
loved, definitely a B movie,
and I don't think Jason has wants us

484
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:01.800
yet, and we are going to
make him watch us for the show.

485
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:09.199
Announce The Beast Master. It was
foretold by witches, it was conceived through

486
00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:15.559
sorcery, and it was to be
destroyed by all that is evil, But

487
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:22.559
the courage of one mortal saved it. And so into an age of darkness,

488
00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:28.840
in a time of mysticism, sacrifice
and plunder, there came the only

489
00:41:29.000 --> 00:41:36.599
light, the beast Master, born
with the strength of a black tiger,

490
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:43.079
the courage of the evil, the
power that made him more than any hero,

491
00:41:49.719 --> 00:41:54.440
more than any lover. He was
lord and master over all beasts.

492
00:41:55.480 --> 00:42:04.679
Ah was the Beast Mass that was
on cable so many times, and I

493
00:42:04.840 --> 00:42:09.480
watched it every time. Mark Singer
and Tanya Roberts, who's definitely one of

494
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:15.960
my early eighties crushes, gorgeous,
loved her as the Redhead. Just a

495
00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:22.239
weird, bizarre movie, one of
those medieval sword and sorcery kind of films,

496
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:25.920
um you know that kind of had
a feel of he Man, a

497
00:42:27.079 --> 00:42:30.960
real life he man. Yea.
They even had the tiger a black tiger,

498
00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:35.199
but yes, yes, tiger painted
to be a panther exactly. And

499
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:37.400
when I used to watch it,
and I used to go, this is

500
00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:40.079
like he man, but they don't
call him he man. So, yeah,

501
00:42:40.159 --> 00:42:43.480
that's pretty cool. I forgot about
that show. Yeah, I think

502
00:42:43.519 --> 00:42:46.079
it had a little bit of a
soft porn texture to it. Also,

503
00:42:46.400 --> 00:42:51.239
for some unknown reason, it just
crossed my mind. You were definitely on

504
00:42:51.400 --> 00:42:54.920
something. Where'd you get that one
from Jesus? As he mentioned Tanya Roberts

505
00:42:55.039 --> 00:43:01.239
my skin in that movie? Sure
you go secantially clad? Yeah. That

506
00:43:01.360 --> 00:43:05.960
was the thing about those early eighties
Sword and Sandal movies. It was always

507
00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:09.960
the women were wearing the skimpiest outfits
you could think of. And yeah,

508
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:15.679
yeah, men showing muscles, women
showing next to nothing. That's changing thinking

509
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:22.199
about his his days with on TV. On TV was a joy. Do

510
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:24.800
you guys remember on TV? Or
did I go way back? No,

511
00:43:25.079 --> 00:43:30.239
you went far enough that don't go
out. I will climb to this.

512
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:34.239
I would love to know. So
the first two well, the first big

513
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:38.519
cable network here at least in California, and I know it was around the

514
00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:43.239
United States. But at least here
in California, the main channel, they

515
00:43:43.320 --> 00:43:45.679
gave you a box. You right, you want on cable, Well,

516
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:47.960
what do you want? We've got
on TV. It was called on O

517
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:52.119
N on TV, and it was
one box. It even came with a

518
00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:57.440
key that was for so the kids
wouldn't get to it because they showed some

519
00:43:57.599 --> 00:44:00.800
naughty stuff on it. But it
was TV. And then their competition came

520
00:44:00.840 --> 00:44:06.159
along and it was called Select TV. So when you guys get a chance,

521
00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:08.079
okay, that is this is coming
back a little bit, especially when

522
00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:10.920
you missaid the key. I was
like, okay, I know about this.

523
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:15.880
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so
on TV. So those when you

524
00:44:15.960 --> 00:44:21.239
guys can check out some information on
on TV Select TV and you'll get some

525
00:44:21.679 --> 00:44:23.480
some kicks out of that. Well
that yeah, that just brought back some

526
00:44:23.559 --> 00:44:27.199
wonderful memories of me. Because I
didn't have a key to get the naughty

527
00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:30.320
channels. What I used was a
paper clip. I would unfold it and

528
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:35.199
those of us from yes the early
mid eighties or a little bit into the

529
00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:38.519
ladies would know. You'd flip the
cable box over and you'd kind of rig

530
00:44:38.679 --> 00:44:42.519
it. You'd sick the paper clip
in there. There's a way to insert

531
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:46.400
the paper clip in that would get
the good old like Playboy channel to go

532
00:44:46.599 --> 00:44:51.079
from squiggly lines to like straight like
picture. And you were like, and

533
00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:53.079
you'd have to use so sensitive and
you would have to balance the paper clip

534
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:57.320
just right, and it would always
fall out or fall over and you'd have

535
00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:00.599
to reconfigure it, and then you'd
of course be worried about your parents walking.

536
00:45:00.639 --> 00:45:04.199
It was just a lot of stress
that went into it. So Jason

537
00:45:04.320 --> 00:45:07.679
young teenage boy, it was.
It was eventually worth it at some point.

538
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:14.239
Jason was the teenage mcgiver. Oh, yeah, that is interesting.

539
00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:16.159
Yeah, I mean all I remember
eighties. You did what you had to

540
00:45:16.239 --> 00:45:20.159
do. Man, I didn't have
any friends who told me anything about the

541
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:23.480
paper clip. I would I would
have been somebody else's business. Holy smoke

542
00:45:23.719 --> 00:45:27.519
and three. Once in a while
it would go straight, just just for

543
00:45:27.639 --> 00:45:30.559
that split set. Yeah, it
was almost like that subliminal blip and you'd

544
00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:31.760
be like, oh, I caught
I caught an image there. I got

545
00:45:31.760 --> 00:45:36.800
a little bit of something there.
I'm gonna take this, uh subject and

546
00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:40.159
run with it, and I'm going
to say one of my cult classic and

547
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:44.360
it's not excuse me, it's not
actually a cult classic, but it's one

548
00:45:44.400 --> 00:45:49.159
of my honorable mentions. And it
is a genre. It feels like a

549
00:45:49.239 --> 00:45:52.599
bygone genre. It's the erotic thriller. And for me, this is Michael

550
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:58.400
Douglas and Glenn Close and an archer. This is Fatal Attraction for teen eighty

551
00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:02.639
seven, directed by Adrian Mine,
a look that led to an evening be

552
00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:07.119
attracted to each other at the party. That was obvious. You're on your

553
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:12.000
own for the night. That's also
obvious, a mistake he'd regret all his

554
00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:17.480
life. I where's your wife?
And you're here with a strange girl,

555
00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:21.719
being a naughty boy. I don't
think having dinner with anybody's a crime.

556
00:46:23.719 --> 00:46:27.320
I've gotta see you. It's gonna
stop you now. It's not gonna stop,

557
00:46:27.400 --> 00:46:29.840
it's gonna go on and on.
It keeps calling me a partner.

558
00:46:30.039 --> 00:46:36.480
Hello, we time back then,
paunching Hanks and I'm scared, Jimmy,

559
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:39.840
you play fair with me? Who
I'm play fair with you. I don't

560
00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:45.639
want to lose to my family again. I'm marry. I don't want a

561
00:46:45.920 --> 00:46:50.800
hard one on. Fine man.
If you've ever come to you my family

562
00:46:50.840 --> 00:46:54.880
again, I'll kill you. You
understand. I'm not going to be ignored

563
00:46:55.159 --> 00:47:02.599
Alicia, where's eleanor he's gone?
Whatever resentment she's feeling, she's probably got

564
00:47:02.679 --> 00:47:07.199
it out of the system. What
if she didn't get it out of her

565
00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:14.519
system with then Fatal Attraction? I
guess he thought you'd get away with it.

566
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:17.559
Well, we covered this recently on
our podcast Bill and I and I

567
00:47:17.719 --> 00:47:22.639
can't even tell you how impressed I
am with this film still today. This

568
00:47:22.920 --> 00:47:28.320
movie holds up. Oh yeah,
it is wild and it is topical today

569
00:47:28.360 --> 00:47:30.840
as well some of these movies.
It's funny where it's you can see,

570
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:35.559
would it be made today? I'm
not sure, you know, because there's

571
00:47:35.599 --> 00:47:38.599
some sensitive material in it, but
it is definitely erotic. Len Close is

572
00:47:39.639 --> 00:47:45.039
unhinged and she has some mental health
issues, and you can kind of delve

573
00:47:45.119 --> 00:47:50.000
into it and look at it with
a kind of a microscope now and really

574
00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:53.639
analyze it. But it is such
a well directed and well paced film and

575
00:47:54.119 --> 00:47:58.280
you're just on the edge of your
seat. It's just a wonderful, suspenseful,

576
00:47:58.920 --> 00:48:02.559
tension filled film with just wonderful performances. So, yeah, Fatal Attraction,

577
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:07.760
But man, I have so many
honorable mentions. It's ridiculous because you

578
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:10.079
know, what we You know,
you'd mentioned this Toscano was interesting because you

579
00:48:10.199 --> 00:48:15.159
said, you know, you've been
very complementary of our knowledge of eighties films.

580
00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:19.840
But the bottom line is what we
are fans first, and the eighties

581
00:48:19.880 --> 00:48:25.639
were so important and during our formative
years and got us into the creative business

582
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:30.840
and just really sparked our imagination.
And it's really about the nostalgia and who

583
00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:35.320
we were with and where we were
when we saw these films, And it

584
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:38.440
comes down to how these films make
us feel and how they still make us

585
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:44.559
feel because of the nostalgic attachment.
It is so powerful that we can look

586
00:48:44.599 --> 00:48:47.920
at a film like The Terminator and
forgive the effects because it still makes me

587
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:53.840
feel a certain way because it inspires
me that much that I will forgive that

588
00:48:54.119 --> 00:48:58.480
much. And one of the nice
things is that Bill has introduced me to

589
00:48:59.039 --> 00:49:00.880
some wonderful films as well as his
wife, as it turns out, who's

590
00:49:00.880 --> 00:49:04.679
the producer, it seems, and
behind the scenes, because she chimes and

591
00:49:04.760 --> 00:49:07.039
she's like, you gotta do this
movie. You gotta do this movie.

592
00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:10.840
And one of those movies happens to
be Sleepaway Camp from nineteen eighty three,

593
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:17.079
and talk about a hidden gem you, Mom and Dad. I've been at

594
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:30.199
sleepaway Camp for almost three weeks and
I'm getting very scared. Welcome to sleep

595
00:49:30.280 --> 00:49:43.360
Away Care. Someone is watching you. He someone He's waiting for you.

596
00:49:47.639 --> 00:50:02.840
Someone wants to scare you to death. Turn a wheel, sleep away can

597
00:50:05.000 --> 00:50:09.199
you won't be coming. That's a
weird one. Talk about either drug induced

598
00:50:09.599 --> 00:50:15.800
or whatnot. There's one of the
craziest twists at the end of that film.

599
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:20.280
I'm just going to say there's a
spoiler alert fast forward thirty seconds if

600
00:50:20.320 --> 00:50:22.440
you don't want to have this film
ruined for you. But I'm just going

601
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:25.239
to say there's a gender reveal at
the end of the film that you don't

602
00:50:25.239 --> 00:50:31.880
see coming. The other two words, I'll just say our aunt Martha gentleman.

603
00:50:31.920 --> 00:50:35.599
I'm going to have to watch that
movie. I have not seen that,

604
00:50:35.719 --> 00:50:37.400
have you, Tusconnell? I have
not seen that film. I'm going

605
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:42.880
to dive into that this weekend.
I believe I thought one time, don't

606
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:45.760
sleep on it. Yeah, no, pun intended, stick it out.

607
00:50:45.840 --> 00:50:49.960
Who waits? Right? You got
to get through the cold open the first

608
00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:52.199
ten to fifteen minutes, and then
it just gets weird and you're like,

609
00:50:52.320 --> 00:50:55.599
what am I watching this is terrible. This is an awful movie, and

610
00:50:55.760 --> 00:51:00.280
then it just gets inside of you
and you're like, wait a minute,

611
00:51:00.599 --> 00:51:05.440
is this sneaky? Smart? Is
this one of the smartest movies that they

612
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:10.599
actually were aware of the fact that
it is totally campy, and it just

613
00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:16.039
it takes you by surprise. I
always loved slasher films since the start of

614
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:21.320
you know, Friday the Thirteenth and
then and then the Michael Myers, the

615
00:51:21.400 --> 00:51:24.760
Halloweens and all that. But I
do remember having seen this film one time,

616
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:28.599
and that's not what I remember it
was. It was a slasher film

617
00:51:28.840 --> 00:51:31.199
and it gets a good rating,
believe it or not. So for the

618
00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:35.239
people who have seen it, it
gets a pretty decent rating. Yeah.

619
00:51:35.320 --> 00:51:38.400
Yeah, Like I said, just
powers through that first ten minutes because you're

620
00:51:38.760 --> 00:51:42.440
going to start watching this and going, what the hell are Bill and Jason

621
00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:45.679
talking about? Chang? What about
you? Do you have two honorable mentions?

622
00:51:45.760 --> 00:51:51.599
Chang? Yes, I do.
No, they're not the greatest Academy

623
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:57.039
Award winning films, but these are
two definite, definite films that I was

624
00:51:57.280 --> 00:52:00.639
very much taken by and enjoy.
And I'm talking about Beetlejuice. You're a

625
00:52:00.760 --> 00:52:10.119
gun movie. He's guaranteed to put
some life in your afterlife. Michael Keaton

626
00:52:10.760 --> 00:52:21.760
is Beetlejuice and the Ghost with post
Day. I think that movie was kind

627
00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:29.280
of sinister, very halloweenish, ghoulish, scary, but hilarious. I mean,

628
00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:32.800
who could be a better Beetlejuice than
Batman? You know, when known

629
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:38.480
a rider, her parents and how
quirky they are, I mean, what

630
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:45.400
a storyline. And then you can
call the way looking dude and his head

631
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:47.960
shrinks and yeah, he's just trying
to get his place into hell wherever he's

632
00:52:49.000 --> 00:52:52.320
supposed to go. The suit is
probably something, you know, Tisconnald,

633
00:52:52.599 --> 00:52:57.679
if we ever win an award for
a radio programming, I will be sporting

634
00:52:57.719 --> 00:53:00.239
a soup like that as long as
you're her face and the hair has done

635
00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:06.599
the exact same way as in the
movie. What's your take on Beetlejuice?

636
00:53:07.000 --> 00:53:10.639
Bill? I just love Michael Keaton
in that role. Man. He knocks

637
00:53:10.679 --> 00:53:15.559
that out of the park. And
he's only in that for maybe twenty minutes

638
00:53:15.920 --> 00:53:20.519
exactly, but he leaves such an
impact on that film. And I'm super

639
00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:23.159
excited that they are filming a sequel. I hope they get it right.

640
00:53:23.599 --> 00:53:27.960
Yeah, has a lot to live
up to. And yeah, like I

641
00:53:28.039 --> 00:53:30.880
said, I mentioned Alec Baldwin,
you know, one of his earlier roles.

642
00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:35.880
And Gina Davis. The two of
them are worked great together when I'm

643
00:53:35.920 --> 00:53:40.800
a writer. And Jeffrey Jones,
and oh yeah, the dinner scene JO,

644
00:53:42.039 --> 00:53:46.119
Like, that's so bizarre, it's
amazing, it's hilarious. It's so

645
00:53:46.280 --> 00:54:09.440
much fun to watch. Umme,
I adore the film, and like Bill,

646
00:54:09.480 --> 00:54:14.599
I do hope they get the sequel
right. It's hard to capture the

647
00:54:14.719 --> 00:54:19.880
lightning in the bottle once again.
We are huge fans of Michael Keaton on

648
00:54:19.960 --> 00:54:23.000
the All Eighties Movies podcast. He's
just one of those guys that we've always

649
00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:29.239
found very endearing. But he I
mean, we did gosh when we did

650
00:54:29.360 --> 00:54:30.599
Mister Mom. I mean, you
just fall in love with the guy.

651
00:54:30.800 --> 00:54:35.440
He's just so funny and night shift. I mean the love Brokers. I

652
00:54:35.480 --> 00:54:40.519
mean, talk about the team,
Tim Burton, Michael Keaton, Danny Elfman.

653
00:54:40.639 --> 00:54:45.480
Let's talk soundtracks for a moment.
I mean, just for me.

654
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:49.119
I grew up John Williams. John
Williams is my number one. Bill Bantch

655
00:54:49.119 --> 00:54:52.920
just saw him at the Hollywood Bowl. It's been a tradition of ours to

656
00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:58.159
see John Williams, he's number one. But Danny Elfman was a game changer,

657
00:54:58.360 --> 00:55:01.239
especially when Batman came out in eighty
nine. That's when I really became

658
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:06.360
aware of him and then realized,
oh, yeah he's owingo bongo. Yeah,

659
00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:08.320
of course he is. What what's
going on here? This dude is

660
00:55:08.360 --> 00:55:12.880
really talented. But getting back to
Beetlejuice, that's the team and again that

661
00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:16.039
they team up with on Batman.
Yeah, it's it's the same same three,

662
00:55:16.559 --> 00:55:21.679
Tim Burton, Keaton and Elfman.
Yeah, it's just it's magical stuff

663
00:55:21.880 --> 00:55:28.800
when when film scores did have thematic
pieces in them, and yes, Michael

664
00:55:29.079 --> 00:55:31.599
Keaton again for us, it's again
it's a generational thing. It's a nostalgic

665
00:55:31.639 --> 00:55:35.840
attachment when people always ask that question
too, And I know I'm going off

666
00:55:35.880 --> 00:55:37.960
of Beetlejuice, but it's like,
who's your favorite Batman? I'm just saying

667
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:43.719
this is a testament to Michael Keaton
as a performers that he has variety,

668
00:55:43.760 --> 00:55:45.280
he has levels. He can play
the levels. He can play comedy,

669
00:55:45.360 --> 00:55:47.920
can play drama. He can make
you laugh, he can make you cry.

670
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:54.639
So he's immensely talented. And Beetle
Juice. He's just completely insane within

671
00:55:54.719 --> 00:56:02.320
the makeup is wonderful and Tim Burton's
style is just so memorable and so I

672
00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:06.880
mean, he's an autour unto himself
and very he has such a signature.

673
00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:10.440
So Beetlejuice is wonderful. But I
love him. Keaton as Batman, He's

674
00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:15.480
my favorite because he could play the
duality so well, the Bruce Wayne versus

675
00:56:15.599 --> 00:56:19.760
Oh exactly, Tisconna, what do
you think of my movie Beetlejuice? And

676
00:56:19.800 --> 00:56:25.440
then I'll give you my second one
I did many of my classroom clown adventures

677
00:56:25.679 --> 00:56:30.800
were performing the scene where he used
to say, hey, does I'm good

678
00:56:30.800 --> 00:56:35.880
for you? Hey came here?
Hey you, Hey came here? I

679
00:56:35.920 --> 00:56:40.199
agree, God, hey came here. I guess I'm good for you.

680
00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:47.679
Gone over a play and he would
get the fly because he wanted to eat

681
00:56:47.679 --> 00:56:51.480
the fly. So that was that
was a little scene I would do over

682
00:56:51.559 --> 00:56:54.199
and over to be funny with with
some of my classmates. And hey,

683
00:56:54.280 --> 00:56:59.320
do the Beetle Juice attention? Oh
Kmart schrup Earth you know we do stuff

684
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:01.039
like that in class. So yeah, I love it. I love the

685
00:57:01.119 --> 00:57:05.119
father. Have you nailed that one? That was good. It was nice,

686
00:57:05.840 --> 00:57:15.719
gentleman. My next movie would be
Beverly Hills Cop. Eddie Murphy is

687
00:57:15.760 --> 00:57:22.480
a Detroit cop on vacation in Beverly
Hills. I just got off the phone

688
00:57:22.519 --> 00:57:25.039
with him, Inspector Cotton, Detroit. He says, if you're out here

689
00:57:25.079 --> 00:57:32.840
investigating the Tandeina murder, you needn't
bother coming back. I don't bother a

690
00:57:32.920 --> 00:57:36.320
man who claims to be on vacation. You look a lot like you're on

691
00:57:36.400 --> 00:57:39.599
a steakhout. Steakhout. No,
no, I'm picnicking. This sounds like

692
00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:45.440
a picnic area. Asked some questions
about Michael Tandino. Do that I can.

693
00:57:45.079 --> 00:57:58.119
I'll shoot you myself. Eddie Murphy, Beverly Hills Cop. You know

694
00:57:58.239 --> 00:58:01.320
Eddie Murphy was a top game stand
up comedian there. You know, he's

695
00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:07.119
very multi talented. Beverly Hills Cop. It was a favorite of mine.

696
00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:09.199
I thought it was very funny.
I did like all the actors in it.

697
00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:14.039
They were all very funny. Chang, I'm not and I'm not kidding.

698
00:58:14.239 --> 00:58:17.920
I'm not kidding you here, pal
my Top ten number seven, Beverly

699
00:58:19.039 --> 00:58:21.800
Hills Cop. Hell. Yeah,
but I put it on my list.

700
00:58:22.000 --> 00:58:24.519
I put it on my list.
It's one of those movies that it warms

701
00:58:24.639 --> 00:58:29.920
my heart. Brother, it warms
my heart. What a wonderful soundtrack when

702
00:58:30.000 --> 00:58:32.599
he hits Beverly Hills and the sun
is shining in the palm trees, or

703
00:58:32.840 --> 00:58:37.400
and he's cruising in his old beat
up car and he's checking out the crazy

704
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:43.239
the ladies with the big you know, poofy hair and the wild unitards and

705
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.519
the giant dogs, and it's like, where the hell am I? It's

706
00:58:45.599 --> 00:58:52.559
but it's beautiful and it's wonderful,
and he is undistailable, he's he is

707
00:58:52.800 --> 00:58:59.400
so, he's on fire, he's
so charming, he's so m Eddie Murphy

708
00:58:59.480 --> 00:59:04.239
is a one of a kind,
I mean a unique guy that I mean

709
00:59:04.360 --> 00:59:06.880
he commands the screen. Whenever he's
on, you just want to know what

710
00:59:06.960 --> 00:59:12.440
he's gonna do next. He's unpredictable, he's his improvisation, his ad libbing

711
00:59:13.000 --> 00:59:15.039
everything, and it's just the whole
movie is just a string of like you

712
00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:17.960
said, it may not be the
best storyline, but it is. He

713
00:59:19.159 --> 00:59:22.360
puts it together with just a string
of improv and ad lib and just comedy.

714
00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:25.599
And you can't get enough of him. You can't get enough. He

715
00:59:27.000 --> 00:59:30.320
is young. He's row he's still
in his early twenties when he's doing this.

716
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:32.880
We were doing there was some research
on that. I had no idea

717
00:59:32.960 --> 00:59:36.800
that he was nineteen when he was
on Saturday at Live at the time of

718
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:39.599
cast member. And then he goes
off and just blows up and Beverly Hills

719
00:59:39.639 --> 00:59:45.079
Cop feels so good. I'm just
a huge fan of Taggart and Rosewood.

720
00:59:45.199 --> 00:59:47.840
Oh yeah, but one of the
best. Like they're just a great comedy

721
00:59:47.920 --> 00:59:54.840
duo, sidekick duo in a buddy
cop movie. But yes, the soundtrack

722
00:59:57.199 --> 01:00:00.800
is it who do you guys?
That Patti LaBelle who in there? I

723
01:00:01.000 --> 01:00:05.760
thinking, well, the Pointer sisters
were there and her sisters, yeah,

724
01:00:05.840 --> 01:00:12.639
and the heat is on by what
they yeah, and so many great scenes

725
01:00:12.679 --> 01:00:15.960
of course, the banana and the
tailpipe. I mean, I recommend it

726
01:00:15.199 --> 01:00:19.320
to anybody to go back and watch
that. It just for me captures the

727
01:00:19.400 --> 01:00:24.079
eighties is special, special time.
Nineteen eighty four, great year, just

728
01:00:24.159 --> 01:00:29.079
a great year all around. You
get Bruce Springsteen little uh you know,

729
01:00:29.239 --> 01:00:34.360
born in the USA, you got
I mean, there's just the culture to

730
01:00:34.480 --> 01:00:37.039
Sconell loves the Boss, he loves
them. It was a great summer.

731
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:40.199
I love everything about eighty four,
but Beverly Hill's Cop definitely. I don't

732
01:00:40.199 --> 01:00:44.320
know. How do you feel?
Bill? Oh? You know that was

733
01:00:44.480 --> 01:00:49.320
in my top ten also, Um, probably number five, with a great

734
01:00:49.360 --> 01:00:52.760
blend of comedy and action. Um. We discussed this one on our podcasts,

735
01:00:52.920 --> 01:00:57.480
and I remember seeing this movie like
it was yesterday. My mom took

736
01:00:57.519 --> 01:01:01.760
me to go see it. We
were just both roaring in our seats.

737
01:01:02.280 --> 01:01:06.199
Yea. Eddie Murphy just just amazing. It's just like, all right,

738
01:01:06.239 --> 01:01:07.880
we're just gonna put the camera on
you and see what you can do.

739
01:01:08.239 --> 01:01:14.159
And just the way he talks himself
out of all these situations throughout the movie

740
01:01:14.239 --> 01:01:20.639
is just great. That opening truck
scene with a cigarette truck just bashing through

741
01:01:20.760 --> 01:01:24.679
all those cars and you know there's
no special effects, that's all really happening.

742
01:01:24.920 --> 01:01:31.039
And the bus doing the three sixty
turns just amazing stuff. The soundtrack,

743
01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:35.239
yes, it's one of my favorite
soundtracks of the eighties. I had

744
01:01:35.280 --> 01:01:37.599
that on record, bought it on
cassette, got it on CD, and

745
01:01:37.719 --> 01:01:40.840
now you know, do the digital
download. That's how much I love that,

746
01:01:42.480 --> 01:01:45.079
you know. The axels, Glen
Fry, Patty LaBelle Pointer Sisters.

747
01:01:47.280 --> 01:01:52.760
Yeah, just a banger of a
soundtrack and all the secondary kind. Yeah,

748
01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:55.079
you can't forget about surge fan.

756
01:02:34.599 --> 01:02:37.599

that a dog to scrub for the customer.

757
01:02:37.960 --> 01:02:44.480
It's not sexy. It's anyway now
after you samething to drink wine fctile

758
01:02:45.639 --> 01:02:50.000
espresso. No, I'm fine,
thank you. Don't make it to myself

759
01:02:50.119 --> 01:02:52.960
right back there with a little lemon
twist. It's good strike. No,

760
01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:57.239
I'm fine. I see you look
at the space. Yeah, I was

761
01:02:57.320 --> 01:03:00.440
wondering how much something like this went
for one hundred thirty thousand dollars, Get

762
01:03:00.519 --> 01:03:04.599
the fuck out of here. No, I cannot eat serious because it's very

763
01:03:04.599 --> 01:03:07.840
important space. Have you ever sawd
one of these sounded yesterday to collect our

764
01:03:08.000 --> 01:03:12.840
get the fuck out somebody else?
I said it myself. You know,

765
01:03:13.119 --> 01:03:16.639
the probably the one person that could
come in and steal two minutes of that

766
01:03:16.760 --> 01:03:24.199
movie from Murphy and he's hilarious and
it's just perfect. My two honorable mentions

767
01:03:24.360 --> 01:03:30.360
are movies that had to do with
school, because partly because I was in

768
01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:37.280
high school. And the Breakfast Club. It is now seven h six.

769
01:03:37.360 --> 01:03:42.719
You have exactly eight hours and fifty
four minutes to think about why you're here.

770
01:03:42.880 --> 01:03:46.199
Questions. Yeah, I got a
question. Does Barry Man alone know

771
01:03:46.360 --> 01:03:50.679
that you raid his wardrobe? Give
you the answer to that question, mister

772
01:03:50.800 --> 01:03:53.360
bender. Next Saturday, we'll mess
with the bull young man. You'll get

773
01:03:53.400 --> 01:03:59.239
the horns, you know, with
the brat pack known there. It was

774
01:03:59.360 --> 01:04:03.119
John Hughes film, and it just
there's nothing special about this. It wasn't

775
01:04:03.119 --> 01:04:09.760
a really high high budget film,
but the conversations that went on between them

776
01:04:10.760 --> 01:04:15.320
during their Saturday school it was just
something that I had experienced firsthand because my

777
01:04:15.440 --> 01:04:20.159
best friend and myself we were we
visited Saturday School on a couple of occasions

778
01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:26.599
ourselves and it wasn't as nice as
their school, but that was So that

779
01:04:26.679 --> 01:04:30.119
was one of the films. And
my second honorable mention is another film about

780
01:04:30.159 --> 01:04:33.719
school, although it is college,
and it is a film that I think

781
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:40.440
gets overlooked a lot from nineteen eighty
six one of the greatest comedians of all

782
01:04:40.480 --> 01:04:51.440
time as well with Rodney Dangerfield and
it is back to School getting some class

783
01:04:53.239 --> 01:05:01.320
one Rodneys going back to school boys. Here's a couple of parents to run

784
01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:05.000
when I should dream about going to
college? The story I always picked claim

785
01:05:05.079 --> 01:05:08.719
and when did you dream about going
to college? When I used to force?

786
01:05:10.159 --> 01:05:12.960
Are you too, honey? I'd
like to save your shrewd. He's

787
01:05:13.000 --> 01:05:27.360
the wildest man on campus. Robbie
Dangerfield Back to School, Baby, come

788
01:05:27.400 --> 01:05:33.280
on? And Danny Elfman does the
music in this film as well. Yeah,

789
01:05:33.400 --> 01:05:38.039
Back to School was the first movie
I ever went to the theater by

790
01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:42.280
myself to go see, so that
holds a special place in my heart.

791
01:05:43.039 --> 01:05:45.440
I told my parents I was going
to our community pool and went right to

792
01:05:45.519 --> 01:05:50.599
the theater instead. And remember it
had the late great Sam Kinison who is

793
01:05:50.679 --> 01:05:57.599
the school teacher which that was an
electrified history teacher. Yeah, welcome to

794
01:05:57.840 --> 01:06:01.800
contemporary American history. I'm Professor Churchison. And a lot of people think history

795
01:06:01.920 --> 01:06:06.039
is just facts, it's just information
about the past. But not me.

796
01:06:08.239 --> 01:06:12.639
I mean I hold history very sacred, sacred the way the farmer looks at

797
01:06:12.639 --> 01:06:15.400
the earth and he holds its sacred, the way a Christian takes the Bible

798
01:06:15.440 --> 01:06:18.440
and he holds it sacred, the
way a lot of people hold their marriage

799
01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:21.840
sacred. So I feel about it. So when we dive right in my

800
01:06:21.960 --> 01:06:27.480
interpreting one of the easiest events in
the last twenty years of American history,

801
01:06:29.000 --> 01:06:33.440
Now, can someone tell me why
in nineteen seventy five we pulled our troops

802
01:06:33.480 --> 01:06:41.079
out of Vietnam. The failure of
etnomnization to impact their support cause an ongoing

803
01:06:41.159 --> 01:06:46.039
erosion of confidence in the various American
but illegal psychon regimes. Is she right?

804
01:06:46.800 --> 01:06:49.119
Is that? Know? That's the
popular version of what went on there,

805
01:06:49.480 --> 01:06:53.800
and a lot of people like to
believe that. I wish I could,

806
01:06:53.880 --> 01:06:57.159
but I was there. I wasn't
here in the classroom hoping I was

807
01:06:57.280 --> 01:07:00.880
right thinking about it. I was
up from my knees and ice patties with

808
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:04.280
dons, and then we're going up
against Charlie slogging it out with it pussies

809
01:07:04.360 --> 01:07:09.719
like you. We're back there party
and putting headbands on, doing drugs.

810
01:07:09.880 --> 01:07:15.199
Listen to my goddamn Beetle album,
right, professor, take it easy?

811
01:07:15.239 --> 01:07:18.360
Were you? I mean these kids
they were in grade school at the time,

812
01:07:18.599 --> 01:07:25.840
and me, I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover. I didn't

813
01:07:25.880 --> 01:07:30.679
know you wanted to get involved with
the discussion, mister helper. But since

814
01:07:30.679 --> 01:07:33.119
you want to help, maybe you
can help me. Okay. You remember

815
01:07:33.159 --> 01:07:36.960
the thing we had about thirty years
ago called that Korean conflict? Yeah,

816
01:07:38.360 --> 01:07:42.360
where we failed to achieve victory.
How come we didn't cost the thirteenth parallel

817
01:07:42.840 --> 01:07:45.280
and push those rice eaters back to
the Great Wall of China. I take

818
01:07:46.840 --> 01:07:54.400
and no damn back into the star
Ember God, God, why sayd all

819
01:07:54.480 --> 01:07:58.920
right? I'll say it because Truman
was too much my pussy whimp to umcoth

820
01:07:59.119 --> 01:08:05.400
going there. I'm well those comment
backtods, good answer, good answer,

821
01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:13.920
Like the way you think I'm gonna
be watching you, good teacher. He

822
01:08:14.039 --> 01:08:17.600
really seems to care about why.
I have no idea that was in your

823
01:08:17.680 --> 01:08:21.880
face stand up comedy. I think
at its best. Both those guys,

824
01:08:21.960 --> 01:08:27.000
I mean were phenomenal stand up comedians, and it was it was a good

825
01:08:27.079 --> 01:08:31.760
treat to see both of those guys
in pretty decent acting roles, you know,

826
01:08:31.880 --> 01:08:35.239
being comedians. It was a hilarious
movie. Yeah, we kind of

827
01:08:35.279 --> 01:08:40.039
had the weird Sam Kenniston's story because, as you know, he used to

828
01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:45.159
have a feud with Bob Cake,
Popcat Gowthweight and Bobcat actually had come to

829
01:08:45.279 --> 01:08:47.039
our school. We went to the
University of Miami to do a show,

830
01:08:47.640 --> 01:08:51.079
and he did it on the night
that he found out we've all found out

831
01:08:51.119 --> 01:08:57.159
that Sam Keniston passed away, and
he was so destroyed, like he totally

832
01:08:57.199 --> 01:09:00.479
bombed the show. He was just
so distrong about the news. He just

833
01:09:00.760 --> 01:09:02.880
you know, he just felt so
bad about all that because they really had

834
01:09:02.920 --> 01:09:09.159
a budding feud for some reason.
So so that that day definitely stands on

835
01:09:09.239 --> 01:09:12.119
my mind, the day we lost
Sam Kendison. But yeah, God,

836
01:09:12.159 --> 01:09:15.239
I used to love watch to stand
up in the eighties, and yeah,

837
01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:16.960
he was certainly one of my favorites. You know, he's a real quick

838
01:09:17.039 --> 01:09:21.680
story. I told to Scudalts I
met Sam Kennison at the Rainbow in nineteen

839
01:09:23.039 --> 01:09:28.119
eighty eight. I was just there
with my buddies and I would like to

840
01:09:28.199 --> 01:09:30.880
clown around, So before you knew
what I had, the entire bar turned

841
01:09:30.880 --> 01:09:33.119
around at me. I was not
a comedian at the time, so I

842
01:09:33.239 --> 01:09:36.560
was telling jokes. Kinnison walked over
and asked me if I had ever given

843
01:09:36.600 --> 01:09:41.479
any thought into becoming a stand up
comedian. Told him my predicament. You

844
01:09:41.520 --> 01:09:44.680
know, I was a new father. He tripped out of me, bought

845
01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.760
me a drink, turned around and
told me, don't ever get that thought

846
01:09:46.800 --> 01:09:49.000
out of your head, you know. Then he went back to his seat,

847
01:09:49.079 --> 01:09:53.319
and I just thought, Wow,
that guy's just a really nice guy.

848
01:09:53.439 --> 01:09:58.239
But when I seen him in stand
up it was like watching a rock

849
01:09:58.359 --> 01:10:04.840
star singer and a preacher and the
most obnoxious thirteen year old kid you can

850
01:10:04.920 --> 01:10:11.119
get and put in one human body, and that was Sam Kinnison. Let's

851
01:10:11.159 --> 01:10:14.520
take a quick break. When we
come back, we continue with back to

852
01:10:14.600 --> 01:10:26.680
the eighties radio and our movie talk. Do you remember the first time you

853
01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:31.920
tried these games Space Buckle's practice cop
do Ylexy And when you first tried and

854
01:10:32.000 --> 01:10:36.439
coke and you said no, thank
you, But let's try and coke again,

855
01:10:40.159 --> 01:10:42.000
because once you got that new wave
of taste, you want to try

856
01:10:42.039 --> 01:10:45.439
it again again and again. No
practice makes catch the wave, Coca.

857
01:10:47.039 --> 01:10:54.399
If you can't wear a spandex jumpsuit, what can you do this Eies?

858
01:10:57.800 --> 01:11:01.039
Welcome back to Back to the Eighties
Radio listed by Yours truly to scottowin Cheng.

859
01:11:01.439 --> 01:11:08.439
We are joined with our own super
heroes, the eighties movies. I

860
01:11:08.600 --> 01:11:13.680
think these guys have dissected the art
of movies. If you just joined us.

861
01:11:13.840 --> 01:11:18.119
We have the gentlemen who know more
than anybody that I know about eighties

862
01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:24.600
films. That's Bill Banton Jason Massak
from the All Eighties Movies Podcast, And

863
01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:28.600
just a reminder, when you get
a chance, go ahead and type that

864
01:11:28.720 --> 01:11:30.760
in your phone, on your computer
wherever you can look them up. Yeah,

865
01:11:30.800 --> 01:11:34.359
so it's All Eighties Movies Podcast dot
com. So you can follow us

866
01:11:34.359 --> 01:11:39.479
on all our episodes and we'd have
some little tribute games on there, and

867
01:11:39.720 --> 01:11:44.239
you have. I hope to be
adding some more facts about the eighties soon,

868
01:11:44.520 --> 01:11:46.960
about anything eighties movies we hope to
add on our website at some point.

869
01:11:47.239 --> 01:11:51.640
It's hard to recreate the eighties in
a real way. You know.

870
01:11:51.960 --> 01:11:56.640
We've seen some movies that for example, let me give you an example something

871
01:11:56.720 --> 01:12:00.720
that was more a newer film that
tries to portray the eighties, and I'm

872
01:12:00.760 --> 01:12:03.479
talking about Hot Tub Time Machine,
where they go, you know, back

873
01:12:03.520 --> 01:12:08.479
in time and they you know,
they're they're up there in the mountains in

874
01:12:08.600 --> 01:12:13.640
Aspen somewhere. Everybody's wearing all the
fluorescent colors. Right. A lot of

875
01:12:13.720 --> 01:12:18.560
the movies just think that everybody dressed
like Miami Vice and that wasn't necessarily did

876
01:12:19.039 --> 01:12:25.640
no I did for all the way
one, okay, but but we didn't

877
01:12:25.640 --> 01:12:29.039
all dress like that during the eighties. As hard as they try, not

878
01:12:29.439 --> 01:12:32.479
all films get it really right.
However, I do want to make a

879
01:12:32.640 --> 01:12:38.760
mention of a film that I've seen
recently that I thought was pretty decent that

880
01:12:39.199 --> 01:12:43.760
pretty much gets it right. And
it's a film I believe from twenty eleven.

881
01:12:44.359 --> 01:12:46.880
I'm not sure who the director is, but the film is with tofor

882
01:12:46.960 --> 01:12:53.039
Grace and it is called Take Me
Home Tonight the Summer's over. I want

883
01:12:53.079 --> 01:12:56.039
to hear your plan. I guess
my plan used to keep working at Suncoast

884
01:12:56.119 --> 01:12:58.600
Video until I figure out what I
want to do with my life. We

885
01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:01.720
just think you have such a potentia. You could be an astronaut. Oh,

886
01:13:03.119 --> 01:13:08.840
problem solved. I'll just be an
astronaut. You are not gonna believe

887
01:13:08.840 --> 01:13:12.319
who's just in her tory? Frederick
King? Don't I know you? It's

888
01:13:12.359 --> 01:13:18.800
me Tort Franklin. Where do you

It's not as I'm going to try this.

897
01:14:17.000 --> 01:14:19.800
Whatever you do, it's what you're
gonna be, and I just don't

898
01:14:19.840 --> 01:14:24.920
know what I want to be.
Yeah, you marry me? No?

899
01:14:25.479 --> 01:14:30.680
Hell yea marry just a big life
decision. Life decision he's a making sucks.

900
01:14:30.680 --> 01:14:34.159
You're so scared you can't choose anything
sucking. This I just did a

901
01:14:34.239 --> 01:14:41.960
rock bottom So don't mind me.
Oh, I love this song. I

902
01:14:42.079 --> 01:14:45.119
love this song. Do you want
to dance? Why can't you give yourself

903
01:14:45.279 --> 01:14:49.479
one night of enjoyment, just one
night a little relish on your hot doors,

904
01:14:50.960 --> 01:15:03.000
Tory, there's not that I should
tell you. It could be worse.

905
01:15:03.319 --> 01:15:09.279
It couldn't be any worse. There, I was wrong. Now,

906
01:15:09.319 --> 01:15:15.960
it couldn't be any worse. Matthew, Wow, wrong again. And I

907
01:15:15.079 --> 01:15:19.640
don't know if you guys have seen
this film, but it is actually really,

908
01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:24.720
really enjoyable. I mean, this
is one of those films that I

909
01:15:24.800 --> 01:15:28.000
can't believe. It's a newer film, portrays itself in the eighties, and

910
01:15:28.159 --> 01:15:30.359
I can watch it over and over
again and there's always something that I'm catching.

911
01:15:30.560 --> 01:15:32.880
Oh my gosh, they got that
right, They got this right.

912
01:15:33.159 --> 01:15:36.960
And it's called Take Me Home Tonight. Topher Grace is the main star,

913
01:15:38.039 --> 01:15:42.119
and I believe he produced it or
wrote it as well. Fantastic. I

914
01:15:42.319 --> 01:15:45.359
am not I'm familiar with the title
myself, but I have not seen this

915
01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:49.319
film. I can't wait to check
it out, though I love the recommendation.

916
01:15:49.399 --> 01:15:53.279
And this is, as you were
saying, like kind of an eighties

917
01:15:53.279 --> 01:15:56.119
so machar it takes place in the
eighties, Yeah, I believe. Yeah,

918
01:15:56.119 --> 01:15:59.600
there, Yeah, I believe it
takes place like in later eighties.

919
01:16:00.119 --> 01:16:02.840
They talk a lot about you know, these guys are just freshly out of

920
01:16:02.920 --> 01:16:10.760
college and they come back from college
and not everybody is a college graduate,

921
01:16:11.239 --> 01:16:13.880
and it all takes place around the
party. You know who else is in

922
01:16:13.960 --> 01:16:19.199
this movie. It's funny because Chris
Pratt and what was his wife's name before

923
01:16:19.800 --> 01:16:25.279
he married the Schwarzenegger's short offers Anna
Ferris also comes out. I believe they

924
01:16:25.319 --> 01:16:29.039
were married during this film. Watch
this film. It's my recommendation for you

925
01:16:29.119 --> 01:16:30.319
guys if you haven't seen it.
It's pretty cool. There's a lot of

926
01:16:30.359 --> 01:16:33.800
comedy in it, and there's a
lot of eighties references. A couple things

927
01:16:33.880 --> 01:16:36.960
they didn't get right front of the
time, just because they do. I

928
01:16:38.000 --> 01:16:41.000
think they do mention the year,
but I think they get like a soundtrack

929
01:16:41.159 --> 01:16:44.359
that they inserted and it was the
wrong year. But other than that,

930
01:16:44.800 --> 01:16:46.920
I think they did a pretty good
job in portraying what the eighties was.

931
01:16:47.039 --> 01:16:51.199
Like, Hey, Chuskey, you
might I want to ask the boys really

932
01:16:51.279 --> 01:16:59.880
quick who would be their favorite actor
or actress of the eighties era of movies

933
01:17:00.079 --> 01:17:05.239
we've been discussing or possibly a different
movie for me. For actor, even

934
01:17:05.319 --> 01:17:11.760
though he really didn't start making better
movies until the nineties, was Tom Hanks.

935
01:17:12.520 --> 01:17:15.920
I started with Bosom Buddies when we
first moved to New York. We

936
01:17:15.000 --> 01:17:17.560
had a great apartment that was dirt
cheap, and we found out why it

937
01:17:17.720 --> 01:17:23.279
was so cheap. Our friend Amy
said, there was a great apartment in

938
01:17:23.319 --> 01:17:26.800
her building, dirt cheap, but
it's a hotel for women. Okay,

939
01:17:27.159 --> 01:17:31.199
we made one adjustment. Now these
other ladies know us as Buffy and Hildegarde,

940
01:17:32.880 --> 01:17:36.479
but they also know us as Kip
and Henry, Buffy and Hilde's brothers.

941
01:17:38.960 --> 01:17:43.319
I am crazy about the Blonde.
His experience is going to make a

942
01:17:43.399 --> 01:17:53.600
great book. See It's All Perfectly
Normal. One of my favorite shows of

943
01:17:53.680 --> 01:17:58.239
the eighties, even though only lasted
two years, but him and Peter Scolari

944
01:17:58.680 --> 01:18:02.439
were amazing together. That was some
of the best chemistry you could watch on

945
01:18:02.680 --> 01:18:09.279
a sitcom at the time. So
anything Tom Hanks did I was if used

946
01:18:09.319 --> 01:18:12.479
on Letterman, I would tape it. If he was hosting Friday and Night

947
01:18:12.600 --> 01:18:16.439
videos, I was watching it.
So Tom Hanks for me from the get

948
01:18:16.479 --> 01:18:18.800
go. I knew he was going
to be super huge. There was just

949
01:18:18.960 --> 01:18:25.680
something about him that I loved.
And yeah, he didn't have the greatest

950
01:18:25.800 --> 01:18:30.319
of resumes in the eighties man with
one wren shoe, violence hears, but

951
01:18:30.560 --> 01:18:33.640
you know, you know he did
do Splash, Oh yeah, Splash with

952
01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:39.920
John Candy and Eugene Levy. Yeah, so good and big yeah yeah,

953
01:18:39.920 --> 01:18:44.600
and then he had and the Burbs, which a lot of people love.

954
01:18:45.000 --> 01:18:47.760
Um, I'm not on that side
of it, but yeah, Tom Hanks,

955
01:18:47.800 --> 01:18:51.960
for me, was one of my
favorite eighties actors. It's easy for

956
01:18:53.039 --> 01:18:56.720
me and I have to go with
Harrison Ford. He was the man.

957
01:18:56.960 --> 01:19:00.159
He is the man still going today
at eighty most eighty one years old,

958
01:19:00.319 --> 01:19:06.239
but obviously with the new Indiana Jones
film in theaters now, but back then

959
01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:11.279
of course, Raiders of Lost Dark
and the Star Wars franchise. I mean,

960
01:19:11.359 --> 01:19:14.960
this guy. I always looked up
to him. I always thought he'd

961
01:19:15.000 --> 01:19:18.600
be the one movie star I truly
would be star struck by if I had

962
01:19:18.720 --> 01:19:27.199
met him. I had the fortunate
experience of meeting his stunt double from the

963
01:19:27.319 --> 01:19:32.079
indie series Vic Armstrong. He actually
I had an Indiana Jones replica leather jacket

964
01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:36.000
that I love to wear in high
school and I kept it, still have

965
01:19:36.159 --> 01:19:40.159
it. And as it so happens, a couple of our good friends in

966
01:19:40.239 --> 01:19:45.439
contemporaries who are in the biz worked
on a stunt Awards show that Vic Armstrong

967
01:19:45.720 --> 01:19:48.720
was featured in, and he was
there at the show and they did a

968
01:19:48.800 --> 01:19:54.920
bit with the stunt performers playing the
role of the main actor. So Vic

969
01:19:55.079 --> 01:19:59.039
Armstrong was speaking a few lines from
Indiana Jones. It was a very funny,

970
01:19:59.079 --> 01:20:01.760
little comedic bit, but they needed
him to look like Indiana Jones and

971
01:20:01.880 --> 01:20:09.319
they needed to borrow my leather jacket, so Vic Armstrong or my Indiana Jones

972
01:20:09.600 --> 01:20:14.960
leather replica Jack anyway, So Harrison
Ford, I believe he is a very

973
01:20:15.039 --> 01:20:20.079
talented actor. But he was the
first real movie star for me. And

974
01:20:20.439 --> 01:20:25.880
it was in like the top six
of the six of the top ten all

975
01:20:25.960 --> 01:20:29.960
time grossing films, and it's just
amazing. It's truly amazing. You look

976
01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:32.600
at his filmography. But beyond that, you know, going on to play

977
01:20:32.680 --> 01:20:36.840
Jack Ryan and the Tom Clancy films. I'm a huge fan of Witness and

978
01:20:38.039 --> 01:20:43.800
you know, speaking of his eades
work, So yeah, you know,

979
01:20:43.920 --> 01:20:46.000
working Girl is in there. You
know, he goes on later he plays

980
01:20:46.000 --> 01:20:48.800
the President as an Air Force one
and you know, I mean the guy

981
01:20:48.960 --> 01:20:54.720
is uh, he's a he's a
legend. He's an icon. Yeah,

982
01:20:54.760 --> 01:20:59.840
it's it's Harrison Ford and he's a
stud. Nobody does action like Harrison.

983
01:21:00.239 --> 01:21:02.439
That's what when we did Witness,
there was something I said, there's something

984
01:21:02.479 --> 01:21:05.840
about him. He can, he
can. There's an aspect of him that's

985
01:21:05.920 --> 01:21:10.520
kind of very much a working man
or in everyman. Even though he's extremely

986
01:21:10.600 --> 01:21:15.600
handsome and he's very much a leading
man, he just looks like he's you

987
01:21:15.680 --> 01:21:17.800
know, he's a guy that likes
to work with his hands. We knew

988
01:21:17.880 --> 01:21:19.920
he you know, he was a
carpenter before he was an actor. I

989
01:21:20.000 --> 01:21:23.880
know a lot about his life.
But when he is in the middle of

990
01:21:23.880 --> 01:21:27.520
an action sequence, he becomes he's
so intense and he has this expression on

991
01:21:27.600 --> 01:21:31.279
his face. It's got a mixture
of exasperation and desperation but also determination,

992
01:21:32.239 --> 01:21:34.920
like in Clear and Present Danger.
I think it is as something when he's

993
01:21:34.920 --> 01:21:39.960
feeling rage. And you see that
look on his face when he charges Sean

994
01:21:40.119 --> 01:21:43.279
Bean in that film and takes him
out. That may have been Patriot Games

995
01:21:43.760 --> 01:21:45.840
and yeah, Witness, that's the
same. I mean, he just does

996
01:21:45.920 --> 01:21:49.199
action like no one else and of
course we see that in Star Wars and

997
01:21:49.239 --> 01:21:53.600
Indiana Jones. So Harrison Ford for
me. But it's tough with actress and

998
01:21:53.680 --> 01:21:56.319
I'm just going to go with what
comes to the top of my mind.

999
01:21:56.359 --> 01:22:01.039
And she's a very talented actress.
But Bill Bant might know whom my all

1000
01:22:01.119 --> 01:22:05.079
time crush, my one of my
favorite eighties actresses, it has to be

1001
01:22:05.159 --> 01:22:11.079
Elizabeth Shoe. I'm a karate Kid. Guys talk about nostalgic attachment to a

1002
01:22:11.159 --> 01:22:14.439
film and something that was there.
You know, the eighties for us were

1003
01:22:14.600 --> 01:22:17.319
there's so many wonderful speaking of like
Breakfast Club, right, so many wonderful

1004
01:22:17.840 --> 01:22:21.439
coming of age films. Yeah,
Karate Kid was one of those. And

1005
01:22:21.760 --> 01:22:28.279
for me, Elizabeth Shoe was like
just the perfect girl next door that was

1006
01:22:28.399 --> 01:22:32.479
just so cute and perfect and a
doorman and she was the wonderful romantic interest.

1007
01:22:32.600 --> 01:22:36.399
And ever since then, when I
think of the eighties, I kind

1008
01:22:36.439 --> 01:22:43.640
of associate Elizabeth Shoe with that genre. So I'm just going to call her

1009
01:22:43.720 --> 01:22:47.159
out, big fan. Okay,
I'd go Phoebe Kates and you Bill,

1010
01:22:47.199 --> 01:22:53.239
oh yeah, and Usky, well
you just mentioned her. Yeah, it's

1011
01:22:53.279 --> 01:22:56.399
kind of tough because you don't really
have that many actresses that were able to

1012
01:22:56.680 --> 01:22:59.680
expand the whole decade. So the
two that really popped in my head were

1013
01:22:59.720 --> 01:23:06.119
Glenn Close and Sigourney Weaver. Oh
yeah, yeah yeah, Aliens and Ghostbusters

1014
01:23:06.279 --> 01:23:11.119
and Gorillas in the Mist and Working
Girl. And then you had Glenn Close

1015
01:23:11.159 --> 01:23:15.520
who did the Big Chill, the
natural fatal traction which we mentioned dangerously aizones.

1016
01:23:15.560 --> 01:23:19.039
So she was all over the place. So there was a I mean,

1017
01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:24.720
there was definitely a lot of yeah
rush actresses, but they usually had

1018
01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:27.680
maybe two or three movies spanning,
and that was kind of and that kind

1019
01:23:27.720 --> 01:23:30.840
of disappeared. Well. I think
for me as far as guys, it's

1020
01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:38.119
definitely Harrison Ford. Some of the
movies with him, including the first three

1021
01:23:38.359 --> 01:23:43.039
Indiana Jones films. I was there
opening day. One of them was at

1022
01:23:43.079 --> 01:23:46.760
the Cerritos Mall Theater, the other
two were at Lakewood Mall Cinema Plex.

1023
01:23:47.399 --> 01:23:51.600
It brings back some great memories and
plus there's a lot of facial expressions that

1024
01:23:51.720 --> 01:23:57.439
looks like he was like my dad
and my dad. I remember before my

1025
01:23:57.520 --> 01:24:00.600
dad passed away, he said,
you know two greatest actress ever, and

1026
01:24:00.720 --> 01:24:03.159
my dad, being in Italian,
he goes the first one is Robert de

1027
01:24:03.239 --> 01:24:11.159
Niro and the second one is Harrison
Ford, and Harrison Ford was just the

1028
01:24:11.319 --> 01:24:15.760
greatest and coolest cat in those movies. And as far as the ladies well

1029
01:24:15.239 --> 01:24:18.439
about Phoebe Cats, when she came
out of Fast Times on Rigimond High,

1030
01:24:18.800 --> 01:24:23.920
Holy smokes, it's all I could
say. One actress and I can never

1031
01:24:24.479 --> 01:24:29.000
remember her name, but she's She
came out in Dirty Dan Seeing, she

1032
01:24:29.079 --> 01:24:33.520
came out in Ferris Bueler's day office
as a sister. Oh, Jennifer Jennifer

1033
01:24:33.600 --> 01:24:36.560
Gray. Yeah, And now that
I see her, I go she doesn't

1034
01:24:36.600 --> 01:24:40.399
even look like the same person because
of what she did to her nose.

1035
01:24:41.000 --> 01:24:44.279
Part of the crush that I had
on her was I guess it was just

1036

What are some of the movies that

I mean, there's got to be
more than one for you, especially you.

1086
01:28:45.079 --> 01:28:48.000
I've got at least one hundred movies
that I hate. Of the eighties.

1087
01:28:49.479 --> 01:28:54.560
I'm glad. I'm glad. I
am glad that I'm glad. You

1088
01:28:54.680 --> 01:28:58.039
said that you don't hate, that
you don't like hate, and you end

1089
01:28:58.119 --> 01:29:01.680
up telling me you hate about one
hundred movies. Oh yeah, how many

1090
01:29:01.720 --> 01:29:05.680
do you hate? I don't know. I hate some, but I don't

1091
01:29:05.760 --> 01:29:10.199
hate that much. And you know, Oh, that's right, you don't

1092
01:29:10.239 --> 01:29:14.279
hate anything. I never said,
I just I just finished saying. I

1093
01:29:14.520 --> 01:29:17.399
just finished saying that I do hate
some, but not a lot of them.

1094
01:29:18.520 --> 01:29:23.119
Okay, you know what movie I
really hate? Thee some movie Zappadu

1095
01:29:23.319 --> 01:29:27.439
from nineteen eighty Is that square in
your face? Wait a second? That

1096
01:29:27.520 --> 01:29:30.840
movie is that I loved a song
by Rush? Is that with Aba?

1097
01:29:34.520 --> 01:29:41.239
It is? I? Okay,
okay, I hate that group. It's

1098
01:29:41.279 --> 01:29:45.640
about a struggling artist living in LA
They meet a girl who may hold the

1099
01:29:45.760 --> 01:29:51.640
key to happiness, and it is
the gorgeous Olivia Newton John. Oh,

1100
01:29:53.079 --> 01:29:58.199
she was hot. But I also
disliked Greece, but I was I had

1101
01:29:58.239 --> 01:30:02.600
to watch it because I had daughters. The second that second, you hated

1102
01:30:02.720 --> 01:30:06.720
Greece? Or no seconds to wait? Oh seconds to wait? Next?

1103
01:30:08.199 --> 01:30:12.199
Next? The next movie I hated? It was The Blue lagoon kid porn.

1104
01:30:12.319 --> 01:30:15.000
Please, really, nineteen eighty was
full of shit? And boy these

1105
01:30:15.119 --> 01:30:21.920
oh you know what, that's Brookshields
seventeen years she's sixteen years old. Seventeen

1106
01:30:23.000 --> 01:30:26.800
years old? Too little be a
sex object. And that kid reminded me

1107
01:30:26.960 --> 01:30:30.159
like he should have been on eighties
and no, or maybe maybe he should

1108
01:30:30.199 --> 01:30:33.319
the Partridge Family. He should have
been the one that was a Partridge family.

1109
01:30:34.079 --> 01:30:39.720
Wow, you know, yeah,
another movie I hate to win hate,

1110
01:30:41.279 --> 01:30:44.560
but here you go. Here's my
list of one thousand things I hate.

1111
01:30:45.319 --> 01:30:50.560
Oh man, you are laying it
low on me. You know what.

1112
01:30:50.640 --> 01:30:55.119
I hated the legend of the Lone
Ranger, and I'm a big Lone

1113
01:30:55.239 --> 01:30:58.199
Ranger fan as a kid. But
wait a second, was that in the

1114
01:30:58.279 --> 01:31:03.399
eighties? Are you talking about the
nineteen with sixties show that was nineteen eighty

1115
01:31:03.439 --> 01:31:10.000
one? I can't believe you hated
the Lone Ranger. No, I hated

1116
01:31:10.079 --> 01:31:14.880
them that rendition of the Lone Ranger. I am a Lone Ranger fan from

1117
01:31:14.960 --> 01:31:17.159
being a kid. I had the
action figure. Yeah, okay, but

1118
01:31:17.319 --> 01:31:19.840
this movie, wait, I thought, no, it could have been it

1119
01:31:19.880 --> 01:31:23.359
could have been a little bit tougher, make it a little bit more.

1120
01:31:23.479 --> 01:31:27.199
Of course, I want to see
the Lone Ranger knock some people's asses out,

1121
01:31:27.239 --> 01:31:30.560
shoot some others just like I saw
Schwarzenegger. I want to see Tonto

1122
01:31:31.000 --> 01:31:33.439
Scalp a son of a you know
what. You know what I'm saying,

1123
01:31:33.840 --> 01:31:36.960
whine, I got away with way
too much. I want to see more

1124
01:31:38.600 --> 01:31:42.680
realism in The Lone Ranger. And
by the way, if you follow the

1125
01:31:42.960 --> 01:31:45.840
history of the Lone Ranger, it
was written after a real individual who was

1126
01:31:46.319 --> 01:31:50.359
a Lone Ranger who was also in
the Calvary and a highly decorated soldier.

1127
01:31:50.760 --> 01:31:57.039
Really black, really okay, why
I find that interesting news? So I

1128
01:31:57.199 --> 01:32:03.199
figured they put the black mask over
his face to signify that the real Low

1129
01:32:03.279 --> 01:32:08.239
Ranger story was black? Or were
they putting a mask on the truth?

1130
01:32:08.680 --> 01:32:13.000
Oh? Wow, and there it
is. You just had to you just

1131
01:32:13.159 --> 01:32:15.319
had to throw in your little poke
right there. Okay, continue with you

1132
01:32:15.359 --> 01:32:20.319
here. I'm glad you don't hate
that much. And I'm sure everybody out

1133
01:32:20.359 --> 01:32:25.560
there that did not have three D
glasses or did was upset by going to

1134
01:32:25.640 --> 01:32:31.479
see Jaws three D. Holy high
crap. That movie was worse than the

1135
01:32:31.600 --> 01:32:41.680
after party of my graduation in the
bathroom there the last day of school been

1136
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:45.840
vomiting at the same time. Jaws
three D. Please, you couldn't get

1137
01:32:45.840 --> 01:32:47.560
it right in two you didn't even
see it. I bet you didn't even

1138
01:32:47.600 --> 01:32:50.239
see it. Did you see it? You know what? Yes, I

1139
01:32:50.319 --> 01:32:54.640
did see it. I'm getting it
too you. You know what, Just

1140
01:32:54.800 --> 01:32:58.800
because you have the power of the
lion and the color of one of the

1141
01:33:00.479 --> 01:33:04.479
I would say, what color would
that belong to? In characters? Something

1142
01:33:04.800 --> 01:33:11.119
of the Kermit, the frog color. It's avocado green? Okay, I

1143
01:33:11.199 --> 01:33:14.840
don't like avocado to get me.
They get me as sick as this movie.

1144
01:33:15.239 --> 01:33:19.880
Nineteen eighty three, another pooper,
Scooper Staying Alive. John Travolta,

1145
01:33:19.960 --> 01:33:24.199
Please, please. You don't seem
to like John Travolta much, do you.

1146
01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:27.279
I have no problem with John Travolta. No, you don't like him.

1147
01:33:27.399 --> 01:33:30.720
Come on now, you don't like
this movie? Please? You look

1148
01:33:30.800 --> 01:33:36.680
like a buffed out gay lead singer
of Loverboy with that ridiculous shoe string over

1149
01:33:36.760 --> 01:33:44.800
your head. You call a bandanna
headband beautiful toscano'hair that listens as he twirls

1150
01:33:44.840 --> 01:33:48.079
around a cut body like Bruce Lee, except he couldn't fight his way out

1151
01:33:48.119 --> 01:33:53.239
of a dance shoe. That movie
is about it to me, staying alive.

1152
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:58.800
It should have stayed dead. Brother
should have stayed in the can.

1153
01:33:59.439 --> 01:34:02.359
So I'm okay. I got one
more movie. Of course she did,

1154
01:34:02.439 --> 01:34:09.039
ready for this? Yeah, and
go ahead. This one is Porky's two.

You know what, Poorties one hilarious
because I was Porkies one was final

1156
01:34:14.520 --> 01:34:17.880
was everything was wow. I started
out very safe with you know. To

1157
01:34:18.000 --> 01:34:23.399
be honest, the only movies that
I disliked or even hated at that point

1158
01:34:23.840 --> 01:34:30.079
from the eighties are any of the
romantic comedies. I didn't like any romantic

1159
01:34:30.119 --> 01:34:34.680
comedies back then. I was it
was just not my thing. So there

1160
01:34:34.720 --> 01:34:38.800
you go, choose, you know
what. And I left all those alone

1161
01:34:38.800 --> 01:34:42.720
because I figured you liked them.
Oh, of course you do. There

1162
01:34:42.760 --> 01:34:46.840
It is about what I cared about, what you cared about. You see

1163
01:34:46.880 --> 01:34:50.439
how I did that? You know
what? There is actually one romantic comedy

1164
01:34:50.520 --> 01:34:54.520
that I did like. Yeah,
well I like that. No, no,

1165

now that I'm an adult, but

1166
01:34:59.239 --> 01:35:01.800

about this movie. But I recently saw

want to say that one of the
movies that I really hated. It wasn't

1179

eighty The Jazz Singer followed by a movie

1182
01:36:10.840 --> 01:36:14.680
that's called Now this One. I
didn't like it at all with al Pacino,

1183
01:36:15.279 --> 01:36:17.119
and I didn't see until I was
an older teen. But it's from

1184
01:36:17.239 --> 01:36:23.760
nineteen eighty and it's a movie called
Cruising about a police detective that goes undercover

1185
01:36:23.880 --> 01:36:29.760
in the underground SNM gay subculture of
New York City just to catch a serial

1186
01:36:29.880 --> 01:36:34.760
killer. I didn't like that one
at all. And that yeah, and

1187
01:36:36.399 --> 01:36:41.399
I also did it. Yeah.
I also probably my most hated because it's

1188
01:36:41.399 --> 01:36:45.119
Scared the living crap out of Me
from nineteen eighty two, Amityville two The

1189
01:36:45.239 --> 01:36:51.479
Possession. That movie was horrible for
me psychologically. It was just horrible,

1190
01:36:51.680 --> 01:36:58.439
horrible, horrible. Movie. Number
four a movie with Scott Bayo from nine

1191
01:36:59.199 --> 01:37:04.000
from nineteen eight eighty two. The
movies zapped. I even thought it was

1192
01:37:04.119 --> 01:37:09.239
cheesy, even in the eighties.
I thought this movie was cheesy. Anything

1193
01:37:09.319 --> 01:37:13.840
with Scott Bao sucked. And last
but not least is a movie that I

1194
01:37:14.000 --> 01:37:17.960
really had. I don't want to
say I had high hopes for I really

1195
01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:23.439
liked the first one of this of
this particular series of movies. The It

1196
01:37:23.640 --> 01:37:28.960
was with Burt Reynolds and this movie
is called Smokey and the Bandit Part three.

1197
01:37:29.399 --> 01:37:31.720
I didn't like that movie at all. I Yeah, that movie sucked.

1198
01:37:31.880 --> 01:37:34.720
They did enough with one or two
you couldn't go any faus than that.

1199
01:37:35.560 --> 01:37:40.159
Just like Cannonball Run, they would
have screwed themselves Cannonball Run two yea.

1200
01:37:40.279 --> 01:37:44.760
And what about Rhinestone with Sylvester Salone
and Dolly Parton remember that one?

1201
01:37:45.920 --> 01:37:49.000
You know what, I couldn't sit
through Rhinestone at all. One two?

1202
01:37:49.479 --> 01:37:53.720
No way, I just just no
way. That just wasn't my bag.

1203
01:37:54.600 --> 01:37:57.640
She was nice to look at,
yeah, you know, like a country

1204
01:37:58.079 --> 01:38:01.920
country MoMA's mama. But yeah,
I couldn't, you know, I couldn't.

1205
01:38:01.960 --> 01:38:05.680
I couldn't. I couldn't take her
in movies. And there's the storylines

1206
01:38:05.720 --> 01:38:08.960
they put her in. No,
no, yeah, no. Now,

1207
01:38:09.000 --> 01:38:13.239
I'm gonna give you one honorable mention
just for me, because this honorable mention

1208
01:38:13.399 --> 01:38:15.640
is not a movie that I hated
back in the eighties, but everybody that

1209
01:38:15.720 --> 01:38:20.560
I knew that watched this movie hated
this movie to the death. And they

1210
01:38:20.760 --> 01:38:25.239
if you mentioned this movie, like
I'm gonna mention it to you right now,

1211
01:38:25.439 --> 01:38:27.960
I know you're gonna laugh, you're
gonna kick, you're gonna scream,

1212
01:38:28.439 --> 01:38:31.439
and you're gonna just bawl your eyes
out because you know how stupid this movie

1213
01:38:31.520 --> 01:38:36.079
is to you. But I haven't
seen this movie since nineteen eighty six.

1214
01:38:36.279 --> 01:38:41.279
Okay, so granted, just by
me looking at the posters. Now,

1215
01:38:41.600 --> 01:38:47.800
I think it's very stupid, But
back then I liked it. So Leah

1216
01:38:47.880 --> 01:38:51.520
Thompson came out in this movie.
You know, if you liked Marty McFly's

1217
01:38:51.600 --> 01:38:57.039
mom, she comes out in this
movie and she was looking hot. And

1218
01:38:57.239 --> 01:39:02.920
this movie is called Howard. I
think personally there may have been more bad

1219
01:39:03.000 --> 01:39:08.159
ones than good ones. That's just
my opinion. Yeah, there were some

1220
01:39:08.319 --> 01:39:14.119
real good ones. But my gosh, when you have a continuation a series

1221
01:39:14.199 --> 01:39:18.840
of movies regarding the Nightmare in the
Elm Street that keeps going. When when

1222
01:39:18.880 --> 01:39:25.800
you have Revenge of the ne Revenge
of the Nerds Part two, Superman four,

1223
01:39:26.640 --> 01:39:30.880
that movie sucked? Yes, with
New Superman all the time? Yes?

1224
01:39:31.239 --> 01:39:34.960
What about the Garbage Pale Kids movie? Remember that? Oh yeah,

1225
01:39:35.079 --> 01:39:39.439
I remember that crap that was so
stupid. That was one of the first

1226
01:39:39.520 --> 01:39:42.920
movies that I thought, my god, is this where we're going with this?

1227
01:39:45.800 --> 01:39:47.760
Now? We're funny because you know, we talk eighties and a lot

1228
01:39:47.800 --> 01:39:51.920
of people, a lot of people, you know, have good memories,

1229
01:39:51.960 --> 01:39:57.359
a lot of people have bad memories. I think tonight we're bringing out some

1230
01:39:57.520 --> 01:40:00.079
of the truly bad. And there's
got to be some catch and kidies out

1231
01:40:00.079 --> 01:40:02.680
there that agree with both our lists. Oh, I know there are,

1232
01:40:02.840 --> 01:40:06.279
there, definitely are. But but
you know what, there are also a

1233
01:40:06.399 --> 01:40:10.520
lot of people that there's a lot
of people that go, what are you

1234
01:40:10.560 --> 01:40:13.199
guys talking about? That movie is
a classic, That movie is great,

1235
01:40:13.239 --> 01:40:15.439
and that's that's perfect, you know
what. We're all entitled to all to

1236
01:40:15.680 --> 01:40:23.680
our opinion. But when you got
movies like teen Wolf two with Jason Bateman,

1237
01:40:24.239 --> 01:40:27.560
oh my god, the first one
was bad enough for me. The

1238
01:40:27.640 --> 01:40:30.680
first one was bad enough. Oh
yeah, yeah, and then Arthur,

1239
01:40:32.920 --> 01:40:36.279
Oh yeah, Arthur two was bad. Arthur one was funny, you know

1240
01:40:36.319 --> 01:40:39.520
what I mean? Yeah, you
could fit in that character. You know,

1241
01:40:39.600 --> 01:40:43.279
it was hilarious. But come on, I'm not a big fan of

1242
01:40:43.479 --> 01:40:46.920
any movies that go times two.
Some movies can take it, some movies

1243
01:40:47.000 --> 01:40:50.560
can't. You know what I'm saying. Sometimes it's better just to leave the

1244
01:40:50.640 --> 01:40:54.840
original and let it. Yes,
I agree, I agree. Look what

1245
01:40:55.319 --> 01:40:59.840
Stay in the Air like a great
sent Look what look what? Look what

1246
01:41:00.039 --> 01:41:05.920
they did with Police Academy, You
know Police Academy five Assignment Miami Beach or

1247
01:41:06.039 --> 01:41:11.399
nineteen eighty eight, that movie was
ridiculous. Well, if you guys want

1248
01:41:11.439 --> 01:41:15.399
to get a chance to view some
of the most disgusting films for a lot

1249
