2024-11-10 21:14:12 +0000 UTCI thought it was implied that the Jackal does kill Gozzi the Gunsmith because at the end of the scene the Jackal says "Let me see one of those (bullets)". Gozzi hands him a bullet and the scene ends.

2024-09-06 18:47:02 +0000 UTCThis would be a great free ep. Awesome movie, all the Arnold shit, the Flower Moon story at the end and Stang flyin high off the turnbuckle on the five stars

Will See
2023-12-07 14:28:41 +0000 UTCI’ve used “Gets to look up young studs’ assholes” in conversation three times since hearing this. Thanks Mr. Stanger

2023-11-11 22:44:25 +0000 UTCNot sure if anyone else mentioned this but LaBelle and Jackal never getting the chance to speak/hear each other's voices only adds to the argument the English have of "well he could have been anyone"

2023-11-11 03:58:52 +0000 UTCI watched The Day of the Jackal for the first time right after the episode and I really enjoyed it. I think this and David Fincher’s The Killer make for a nice double feature. Great episode and movie recommendation!

2023-11-10 14:35:03 +0000 UTCLoved the episode as always. But had the dissonant experience of thinking a ninja was going to somehow show up in this.

2023-11-10 01:35:33 +0000 UTCWhen I watched killers of the flower moon someone answered a phone call and had a 3 minute conversation a few rows behind me. Scorcese bros are weird I guess

2023-11-09 01:10:06 +0000 UTCWhenever Stanger yells “wooo!” Into his mic, it never fails to make me think of the last 30 seconds of Heartache Tonight by the Eagles. Exact same “wooo!”. This is an excellent podcast and they were an excellent band.

2023-11-07 20:48:13 +0000 UTCStanger actually has a great voice.
John McClane
2023-11-07 19:46:01 +0000 UTCFor an action thriller I found this tremendously relaxing to watch. It may be what the Boyz said about being overwhelmed by good filmmaking. There was also an enjoyable travelogue quality to it. Overall it was seemed to be a classier than usual Bond story.

2023-11-07 18:07:38 +0000 UTCThe audiobook narration reminded me of the Olympic doc 16 Days of Glory and the editing of film felt like it too.
JamieQT
2023-11-07 14:43:08 +0000 UTCWatching Day of The Jackal. Never seen it before, but had watched the 90’s Bruce Willis when that was a USA channel staple. It’s so so different from the original. It’s like you guys said, the 70’s version feels like a Mann film. Everything comes off like the filmmakers did their homework on spy craft, and assassins. They wanted to make a story about a profession, and people who are meticulous about it. The remake is extremely generic, with unnecessary character reflecting moments like if they were Don Johnson’s Sonny Crockett, and you had soft music playing while they explain their hang ups. The only good bit is when Bruce Willis kills Jack Black, Alex Murphy style.

2023-11-07 11:52:11 +0000 UTCSo I'm seeing How Did This Get Made Live this week. We're doing "No Retreat, No Surrender". Don't worry, I contacted security and warned them about Filmfan.

2023-11-07 04:23:21 +0000 UTCI love the ActionBoyz because we can go from critical analysis of Cyboman to this absolute fucking classic in just a month.

2023-11-07 02:53:41 +0000 UTCI love the Arnold audiobook bits. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time.

2023-11-07 01:38:23 +0000 UTCHighly recommend director Fred Zinnemann’s 1948 film noir ‘Act of Violence’

2023-11-07 01:29:23 +0000 UTCSorry it's more confusing Best of the Best than Bloodsport, but still a fun watch.

2023-11-07 01:17:10 +0000 UTCOne of my favorite endings of that era
Adam Ross
2023-11-07 00:48:34 +0000 UTCIt has everything Mercs, idiosyncratic euro character actors, Tom Berenger rocking a bandana
Canadian Day Player
2023-11-07 00:05:34 +0000 UTCIf you dig love letters to professional process and procedure, definitely check out the adaption they made a few years later of Forsyth’s The Dogs of War
Canadian Day Player
2023-11-07 00:02:04 +0000 UTCThe audition story about spreading ass cheeks is disturbingly similar to my experience being abused as a young actor in NYC.
FiddlersGreenDay
2023-11-06 23:47:04 +0000 UTCI love In the Name of the Rose! Ron Perlman as Salvatore definitely has "next Cyboman/Lawnmower Man" potential as a reoccurring character.
John Arminio
2023-11-06 23:41:11 +0000 UTCI had to split this into two viewings. Not that I thought it was boring just started it way too late at night. The moment I restarted it, I was captivated till the end. P.S. if any ActionBoyz need some extra ninja in their November, then Prime has Fighting Black Kings up. If you ever wanted to see what The Kumite would look like if it was legitimate, then is as close as you'll get.
Jack McReynolds
2023-11-06 23:02:09 +0000 UTCI found this movie really dull (not that anyone asked) but this episode was still really entertaining anyway. Very happy that cybo-man, a character that stanger and rogers didn't really even see, is now 100% in the boyz lexicon

2023-11-06 22:45:30 +0000 UTCGlad to hear Cybo man makes another appearence. Missin my boy Ranazeeez though

2023-11-06 21:57:01 +0000 UTCMichael Londale rules. He's the abbot in The Name of the Rose. Can't wait for the Boyz to do Medievaluary so they can cover it

2023-11-06 21:39:03 +0000 UTCOh man I had a funny crowd incident with opening night KotFM too. When I was leaving the screening I was walking to the subway and this person ran up to me shouting “excuse me! Excuse me!” So I already had my guard up thinking someone was gonna try and scam me and it’s someone with a heavy accent that asks “Did you just see the new Scorsese movie?” … “Yeah I thought it was great!” And he says “yeah I guess … I just wish it had a happy ending” and I was so dumbfounded I just said “yep well … that’s Marty for ya” and he looked at me like I had two heads and then kind of half jogged off. Very surreal
Conor S
2023-11-06 21:01:47 +0000 UTCYeah, but they just trick you into doing weird stuff with your daughter that you thought was dead.
