And we hope to bring you some fun. And Shane, our good friend Shane, who loves you and who do you love? That's right. And, of course, we've already had his Stephen King adjacent comment. And the remake is probably going to be close to the short story in this movie. Okay. Are they remaking Running Man? Yes, they are. It comes out this year. Wow. Who's in it? glenn powell's gonna be in it okay I'll see it just for him yeah um uh you can I think we actually mentioned it in the last episode because it was brought up but yeah I think the comment about the remake was brought up but yeah There is a and because this one is just so loosely and loosely, loosely based on the book, the Arnold Schwarzenegger version of Running Man, nineteen eighty seven. So, OK, probably so. I mean, that that would give it a chance to be a, you know, remake, but not necessarily an exact remake. So that that would be great if they would do. So maybe to be sort of like how they did with True Grit, where the original True Grit movie was more John Wayne movie, where the True Grit that the Coens did, it was more the book. So, yeah. Yeah. Well, the book was actually based in twenty twenty five the year in the book. So that that would make a lot of sense. Yeah. I mean, let's be real, guys. When it comes to Running Man, I'm actually really amazed that this the show isn't real yet. um dude it it really predicted I mean in a sense yeah the way the the viewing of television and then the way we risk you know the entertainment part of it the reality shows the fear factors the you know people forget about gilgan's island yeah Well, we have the largest number of inmates incarcerated in the world overall. So come on, this is, this is, this show is perfect. Let's just get it started. Give people a chance to get out. Well, and the film actually inspired American gladiators. So the producers of the American gladiators sold the show with the clips from running man. And it was, there was a quote that they told the network we're doing exactly like this, except the murdering part. So, and we fired nerf balls at everybody so you're saying that you're going to get jesse ventura in here we didn't say that no no no with a with a stunning toupee yeah man that was some glorious cold of the gladiators I don't know I don't know whose hair is more impressive his or jim brown's no kidding no kidding So as we're discussing the Running Man tonight, please definitely leave your comments and everything in the chat. Interact with us. We'll bring them up on screen. We'll have some fun. Let us know your thoughts. I did watch it for the very first time this past Thursday night. As everybody who is a normal listener to this podcast knows that my short-term memory is not the best. So I'm going to be relying on these guys a lot to help me remember some aspects of it. But I will tell you my own personal bit of trivia with this right from the get go. I did recognize without any help, Miss Yvonne from Pee Wee's Playhouse. Yes, you did. She was the one who chose Sub-Zero to be the stalker. She stood up, and I'm like, oh, wait, what? That's Miss Yvonne. Yeah. But, you know, it's not only with her, but it also has a somewhat Pee Wee tie-in because of, oh, gosh, his name. He was also the bodyguard for Francis's family in Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Oh, yeah. Shane says just a lot of head injuries and concussions for American gladiators. But no murdering though. Hey, no unaliving. Oh, that's right. I'm sorry. Look, we had this discussion. Yeah. Oh my goodness. Oh man. Jess has got to watch the training videos again. When we're done, we have to go sit in the back room and fire up. So you want to be monetized? I mean, who would have thought I'd be the one that could possibly get us canceled? I mean, I could go and start talking about movies I suggested, Brock White. No. We've already done Hide and Creep. They basically said Kevin can't suggest movies anymore. Yeah, Professor Tanaka, that's right. With Mr. Fuji as his manager. Yeah. I'll tell you what's funny is like first thing, biggest thing I noticed from watching this movie was also fact that it's supposed to be twenty seventeen, but everyone is still dressing like the late eighties. Yeah. Well, it's technically it started in twenty seventeen. But by the well, it started. But it also like they said, the movie actually where Arnold gets involved with the show is supposed to be like two years after that. So. So between. Twenty nineteen. Twenty nineteen. Yeah. OK. But that's that's how they thought that everyone was going to dress exactly the way that they did at the time. Yeah. same as star trek you know we all know fashion is cyclical you know so yeah it may have been like by that point they kind of expected the eighties to come back like how like what is it like a bell bottoms and like like stuff are coming back now for kids you know it's like no no nineties fashion is coming is it nineties fashion okay yeah are we gonna get emo again Maybe. Did it ever really go away? I want the neon colors with the checkered board patterns. Yes. You know what I really want? Are the Coca-Cola shirts. Yes. Yes. Yes. Big stripe in the long sleeves. Or those hyper-color shirts. You put your hands on them. Yeah, that era where everyone looked like a highlighter. Yeah. Hey, we loved us some neon, okay? yeah and shane says yeah professor tanaka was also the butler and last action hero okay so another movie I have not seen oh because when it when it came out the reviews were so bad on it I just didn't bother oh man oh my god dude okay I gotta add it to the list all right you just made the list yeah Now, I will say, Jess is usually really good about pulling up the trivia, and I'm sure you probably already have, Jess. But I wanted, and I may be looking at the same page you are. I don't know if you've done the trivia. I wanted to mention one thing that I thought was the coolest thing about this movie, and we can discuss it if you guys remember. But Richard Dawson, you know, who's the guy who played the announcer, he has pretty much the only person in film history that had an epic one-liner in response to I'll be back he said he said only in a rerun yes that was the best I have never seen a response to that that was just perfect yeah I didn't have that on my trivia, but yeah. Richard Dawson didn't kiss anybody in the movie. He did. He kissed the old lady on the cheek, not on the lips, but on the cheek. He said, but no tongue. He's telling himself. Yeah, exactly. Shane says, emo is still a thing. It just became mainstream. Yeah, absolutely. So you're talking about Richard Dawson. They had actually, like Chuck Rolery was considered for the role, and also Burt Reynolds was considered for his role. They said Reynolds turned it down because when he learned he was, he turned it down because he learned he was going to be billed last, and he wanted to be billed second next to Arnold. Understandable. Richard Dawson was perfect for that role because he was already the first host of Family Feud. He's literally a game show host in this. It made it perfect. He just walked right in like he was doing Family Feud. We didn't lose with Richard Dawson doing it. He had his acting chops. He was in Hogan's Heroes. I love Richard Dawson. He was one of my all-time favorite game show hosts. Well, see, that's like with me, like when me and my wife got together, she used to watch a lot of the old match game on the Game Show Network. Love that. Like anytime he and Charles Nelson Riley were together, that episode was wonderful. Mm-hmm. I will not. If I'm catching match game, it's got to have its criteria. It's got to have Charles Nelson Riley. It's got to have Richard Dawson. Fanny Flagg or Betty White. Of course, Betty White. But yeah, those are kind of my match. If I'm going to sit and watch a match game episode. And Richard was always good. Everybody wanted Richard. Everybody always wanted Richard. He was really in sync with everybody's thought process in that game. Yeah. All right. So in starting off the movie, Arnold is flying a helicopter and his job is to get rid of a, you know, unarmed group of people down below who's just trying to get food. Right. Well, to go investigate it, they're going to investigate it. That's really all it is to begin with. And then he gets ordered to do that. Yeah. Yeah. So my question is, Was this a setup as this game show? Was he set up from the, because I, I've not read the book. Was this set up because later in the movie, they're replaying that exact scene for him. So how are they filming? It's it's yeah. It's yeah. That's one of those things. Yeah. It's it's movie magic. Yeah. Yeah, the book, it wasn't about, it had nothing to do in the book with that scenario. That's not why he joined the games in the book. So this is another reason why, you know, loosely based. So I did find that out. Yeah, you were telling me earlier, honey, that there's really not a lot of similarity there. no basically the only thing that's similar is the society in which you know the world is in at the moment and his character name in the book is his character name in the in the movie and uh the the game I mean the show is similar concept you know book to movie so those those are really about the only similarities between the book and the movie Okay. Shane says it depends on the cut. Newer cuts have this. So we watched it on Paramount Plus. Yeah. Yeah. So I'll assume that's one of the newer ones. Did you guys stay and watch through the credits? Yes. Did you see the sponsorship message at the end? What was it? See, this is where my short-term memory just goes out on me. There was something at the end and I laughed about it. It was like an announcer reading off a sponsorship. It was textual, right? I have it over here, but it was funny as crap because it was like the price is right and the announcer just reading off who was sponsoring it. It's hilarious. Yeah, I do remember laughing at that at the end. And do you know who was the voice of the announcer? Who? Roger Bumpus, who is Squidward Tentacles. And for us, we're talking Ghostbusters, the Lewis of RGB. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if we want to put that up there. Hang on, I'm looking. I don't think we do. That's great, Chase. Thanks, buddy. We're not going to share Wu-Tang Clan lyrics. Richard Dawson is in a Wu-Tang. So Chase, welcome in Chase. Chase put up some Wu-Tang playing lyrics and Kevin was opting not to show that. So we'll just say that Chase has always thought that was hilarious that Richard Dawson It made it into a Wu-Tang lyric. Hey, he's a cultural icon. I want to read this sponsorship message for everybody because I've got it up over here. You guys ready? Yeah. The Running Man has been brought to you by Breakaway Paramilitary Uniforms, Oath of Pure Procreation Pills, and Cadre Cola. It really hits the spot. Promotional considerations paid for by Kelton Flamethrowers, Wainwright Electrical Launchers, and Hammond & Gates Chainsaws. David Killian's wardrobe by Chez Alton, nineteenth-century craftsman for the twenty-first century man. Cadre Trooper and Studio Guard sidearms provided by Colchester, the pistol of patriots. Remember, tickets for the ICS Studio Tour are always available for Class A citizens in good standing. That sounds really ominous. If you would like to be a contestant on The Running Man, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to ICS Talent Hunt, care of your local affiliate, and then go out and do something really despicable. I'm Phil Hilton. Good night and take care. I love that. You got to be a class A citizen in good standing. Yeah. Got that social credit system, baby. Well, it's like you were talking about other people in the movie. Dweezil Zappa, you know, he was the young kid in the beret. Yeah. I didn't realize that was him until this viewing around and I was looking on IMDB. I was like, oh, okay. Now, see, because my introduction to him was when his head was shaved when he had that show on USA with his brother. Mm-hmm. And then Ready to Rumble. And Mick Fleetwood. I can't believe you guys haven't also mentioned the director. Oh, I had that note. I did have that note, by the way. And where he's from and what he's famous for? Yes. Director Paul Michael Glaser, who was also Detective Starsky. Starsky and Hutch. Wow. Nice. So, oh, I forgot what I was going to say. I'm telling you. Okay, Brock, you were talking about the beginning and we were trying to figure out whether or not that was foreshadowing for the end. Oh, no, no. Okay. I know where it's going. Mick Fleetwood. Was that makeup or was he really that old? Look. Hey, Mick's living a hard life, okay? But he's still alive and kicking, right? Yes, he is still alive. Yes. Looking like that in eighty-seven? Yeah. That's amazing. Yeah. I mean, he was, he was grandpa level in eight, seven looking like that. Well, what I'm trying to do, and I'm sorry, I'm looking off screen. I'm looking at Jess because she has a Fleetwood Mac aficionado. You know it. He is, McFleetwood is, he's seventy seven years old. So he looked seventy seven in the movie. He did. He really did. Yeah. Well, I mean, I don't disagree with you. Yeah. It just blows my mind. But then, you know, they they might have aged him a little bit for the film. They may. You know, it's possible. They did. He's natural looking. Well, they did a good job. You know, it wasn't until I watched this movie a couple of times. Yeah, he that old. He that old, yeah. Well, it wasn't until I watched this movie a couple of times. And, of course, if you knew anything about, like, the famous musicians from that era, you knew it immediately. But the choreography, you know, was Paula Abdul. Yep. And as soon as I saw it, I was like, that's Paula Abdul. That's literally her stuff. Yeah. Yep. And as soon as I saw her name in the credits, I about jumped off the couch. I love me some Paula. And some of the dancers were in fact, Laker girls. So there you go. Makes sense. There we go. I did not know that. Makes a lot of sense. So I wonder, I wonder if that's why they're like Arnold's, uh, jumpsuit was that color. Cause that's close to Lakers color. That's close to the color of the area. A little bit. Yeah. Probably a deal they made. That could be. I mean, they made a deal with Coors and everything else because they had the signage hanging up in the camps. Yeah, that was still a thing at that point in time. You just had to have product placement and stuff. I mean, that's just the thing. Well, it's funny they had Cadre Cola, but there's one shot where they're at the vending machine when he's walking by and there's a vending machine that has Cadre and it has the Coke. there was a couple of the coca-cola stuff there yeah I didn't know if they just didn't you know want to do the product placement or the cadre cola was just the cola of that world I I would dare say it's kind of like with fallout nuka cola yeah yeah yeah it's just just their world and plus I'm sure coke didn't want a billboard of theirs destroyed into the movie like cadres I didn't ever really think of that, but that's actually a good point. I don't think they would want that. They just want it to be shown and not hyper-focused on that and destruction. That makes sense. Miller Beer, they didn't care in Maximum Overdrive. Everything was destroyed. The movie was a fever dream. The movie caused a lot of fevers. Oh, go ahead. Oh, no. Go ahead, bud. I was just saying, it made me think now we're talking about like with the TV show. So now you have two favorite fictional networks. You have ISS. I-C-S. I-C-S is the running man, and then I-B-C is for screwed. Yeah. So it's kind of, you know. That's some reason why the networks had to have the eye in it. But I'm thinking, you know, this is one of those random thoughts I'm rattling. But they that does not top the best fictional network of all time in UHF. That's true. Um, keeping with the, this being the, you know, quintessential eighties action movie. We also have the musical composition of Harold Faltermeyer in there who also brought us the classic axle F and, uh, so, you know, did come composition for Top Gun as well. So there you go. Another, another key eighties thing about this movie, which is if they're remaking it with Glenn Powell kind of ties in. Well, that's true. It wasn't Top Gun Maverick. Yeah. You're going to forget about that awesome song at the end of Restless Heart by John Parr. Oh, John Parr, man. Brock was like, this ain't no St. Elmo's Fire. I kept throwing in St. Elmo's Fire lyrics. Same guy. Same guy. That's right. John Parr had a banger there. Yes, Chase. Let us not forget the Clamp Cable Network from Gremlins, too. You know, that might be another one of the top favorites. Yeah. And now we're going to get a Gremlins three out here. So that's going to be awesome. Are we? Yeah. They've been saying that for thirty years. They're actually actively talking about it now. They said it about Ghostbusters. No, they're also talking about Goonies again, too. Oh, my God. Another Goonies movie. Will it be good enough? I'll see what you did there. It's good enough for me. Yeah. It's the quest to find that pirate ship that just floated away years and years ago. They captured Maria Conchita Alonzo. Her role, I guess just an eighties trope. you know, she's fighting with, with Ben throughout the entire thing. You know, she, she's the one who gets them caught and everything. And then very quickly at the end, they're, you know, making out. That's yeah. That was, that's just a standard eighties. Yeah. You tried to kill me. I kiss you anyway. Yeah. But when they caught her and put her into the game, they really got the name on her uniform very quickly. Yeah. that was just one of the details I picked up of, all right, we got her, get her, change her into different clothes. And they'd already had her name printed on the, they just got a screen printer there. It's like, it's like the, it's like the, the company that makes the, you know, the, the, the uniforms to the Peewee football team. They're just, the dude's just back there with a screen printer ready. Quick iron on. And they, and they literally put it on her and then stick the iron on it. You know, Shane said they have an animated show for gremlins. That was enough for me. Oh, and Katie. This time, all the gremlins and goonies are women. That's great. Boy, didn't we have enough of that with Ghostbusters? My childhood is ruined now. It's so ruined now. It can only be directed by Paul Feig. You've got to do Goonies by Paul Feig. That's the only way to do it. I will say that there's a little bit of trivia that I saw about this movie. When Arnold Schwarzenegger ran for governor, he rode around in a campaign bus and named it after Running Man. So his campaign bus was the Running Man. Oh, wow. Well, and, you know, this movie also, not only Arnold going on to be a governor, but also Jesse Ventura. So two preacher governors featured in this movie. I mean, and this was along the same times as Predator, in fact. They pushed the release dates out a little further from each other just to keep it from being too much competition with the other movie, too, at that time. Supposedly, the reason Jesse Ventura got invited to this movie was because of their relationship. yeah yeah was it was it the running man that jesse was talking about in an interview with he did an interview with chris van vliet and he mentioned something about I don't know if it was if it was running man but he said that arnold wanted him for running man and so jesse started negotiating with the studio yeah and or was it he wasn't commando was it was a commando no no you want to come in just predator so it may have been this then right I think it had to do with these two movies yeah yeah and so they they couldn't come to the studio couldn't come to an agreement with jesse and so uh arnold or jesse called arnold and said hey they're not budging and arnold called the studio and was like give him what he's asking put him in Man had man had power over Hollywood at that time. Yeah. He really, he did. I mean that, that, that point in time, as far as the action movies goes, he was, he was dominating it for sure. I didn't realize. I'm sorry. I'd say another person that showed up in this movie. I forget how he likes to show up in eighties movies, but Kurt Fuller. Yes. And this was actually his first, this was actually listed as his first film debut. So, wow. Really? Yeah. Wow. That's what my trivia said about Kurt Fuller. Well, and this was kind of morbid here, I guess, but this was, oddly enough, was Richard Dawson's last film. Mm-hmm. And Erlen von Lith, the guy who plays Dynamo, was also his. He literally died the year this came out. Wow. He died right before the movie. And he looked fairly... I mean, he was big, but he looked fairly healthy at the time. And he is actually... erland is actually a classically trained baritone opera singer so you could tell that was being sung that was him that was actually him singing it yeah so I thought I really like dynamo in this yes yeah that was a fun character with the with all the electricity I've seen a guy at drag con a couple of times it does that costume really yeah That's impressive. I mean, he was, that character was great except for the, um, um, the, the, the part at the end. Yeah. The, the, the, the, the, the, our, our, our word part, um, uh, with yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know what I'm talking about? Yes. I'm not going to say that word because I don't want to get in trouble. I don't want to go to, to, to, to YouTube jail, YouTube jail, like Justin training session. Yeah, this was. This is actually Kurt Fuller's first film debut. Prior to that, he had just been in TV shows and stuff. This is where he got his off and running start with movies. That's awesome. And playing just that very similar type of individual. Apparently, the footage of the attacking helicopters in the movie is from King Kong, the I didn't realize that. That's that's crazy. Is that the bridge with Faye Dunaway? Yeah. OK. Yes. And Jeff Bridges, right? Jeff Bridges. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shane says, I know I'm not going to try to pronounce that name. Yafit Kota. Yafit Kota. OK. All right. Well, what other trivia things you got? I'm trying to rack my brain. It's been a long weekend. Okay, so also Dolph Lundgren, Christopher Reeve, and Patrick Swayze and Don Johnson were considered for the main role prior to Arnold being casted. Okay. and also one thing we're talking about too, is the way this things in this movie that we see nowadays, um, it also had the, uh, the deep fake, uh, technology. And when they, you know, did the, when they were trying to convince them, you know, that, that, Arnold's character had been killed. Ben Richards. Yes. So they use the deep fake technology, which is something that is prevalent now in this time. Especially with Arnold. Yeah. I do see Arnold in various times just pop up anywhere. So another cool piece of trivia is when Arnold's escaping from the prison, he wears a World's Gym shirt. And he owned World's Gym at the time. I was wondering, yeah, that makes sense now. A little self-promotion there. Yeah. Of course, I love his beautiful fake beard he's sporting. Yes, that was amazing. Yeah, the whole scene at the beginning where they're trying to escape, but then they've got those old eighties tech barriers around and they're trying to hack it with the... In typical tech... like gooey screens, you know, user interfaces. They can't, he can't put the number in because the guy on the other side is fighting with his number and they're fighting each other. And I'm like, yeah, this is like watching MacGyver or something. It's one of those funny things like you're talking about with the technology. Anytime I watch something that's supposed to be futuristic, I love how CRT monitors and stuff are still very prevalent, where today nothing has a CRT monitor anymore. It's just one of them little neat details I always like. This movie must be from the nineteen hundreds. Look at the monitors That's like with Star Trek the original series and there's you know When they were they're always messing with the computer and they've got this like eight track. Yeah things that they put in all the time That's like I want to say use the trivia. I was trying to think it's the ice the ICS building was like, it's one of Sony's buildings, because I was trying to see what it was, because I was like, that's a really neat, of course, it's just the main base, like they show, the rest of it was painted, but it was really cool. I forgot which, it's something Sony owns. I forgot what it was exactly. Let's see. Let me go through my Google history here, because I looked it up while I was watching it. While Bo's looking at that, another piece of trivia I didn't notice until the last time that I watched this, because I looked at trivia first and then went and watched for it, is that the suits that they wear have Adidas logos on them. Yes, they do. Yes, I didn't notice that the entire time that I've seen this. I didn't realize that there were Adidas logos on the suits. Yeah, I mentioned that to Jess. I was laying on the couch like, ah, sponsored by Adidas. Yeah. Died by Adidas. Instead of die by, by beat us. Yeah. Yeah. The building, the building is the Finland corporate center in Los Angeles. It was owned by MGM, but then Sony bought it in ninety two and it's now a Sony pictures Plaza. That's what that building is. And bring it up. Shane's a quotes as you read that. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Shane's on top of it. That's right. Shane knows, man. I love that one of the most prominent notes that I've seen is that this movie is only based loosely on the book. And it's like, that's pretty much Stephen King movies. Yeah. That's how it is. You pretty much have to – because the guy sometimes goes into a fever dream whenever he's writing stuff. So you kind of have to sometimes just – At least they didn't. At least he didn't direct this one. Thankfully. Thankfully. There's not enough Coke in the world. Of course, I'm not talking about that kind of Coke. Cadre Cola. Right. Cadre. Yes. Yeah, not enough Cadre Cola. There you go, buddy. It's funny, though. At times, when I watch this movie, especially the whole time where Arnold goes into what is supposed to be his brother's apartment. A lot of that feels very similar to a lot of the scene from Total Recall to me. I don't know why. You know what? I had the same thought. I get that vibe. When I was watching that, I was like, man, this is very similar to the vibe with him and Sharon Stone in Total Recall. And Maria Conchita Alonso could have been Melina. Yeah. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Very similar vibes. Yeah. That's what I'm just saying. Like, it was really cool. Like, I don't actually, it's probably went on purpose, but that's just how it, you know, was. Well, Total Recall was eighty eight. Is that right? Yeah, it was. I was looking at that. Actually, I was looking at the timeline of all the movies that, you know, he was involved with at this point. And, you know, in time, because he was he was cranking them out. Yep. He was. Yeah. Yeah, they kind of just figured out what worked best for him and just kind of stamped it. Yeah, it's a trope. Yeah, it's a trope. Yeah, it was Total Recall. So just three years off. Yeah, three years off. Actually, I didn't realize he did Twins before he did Total Recall. But yeah, we had Predator and then Running Man came out after this one. That's another thing, like the character of Weiss. At first, I thought it was Shane Black again from Predator. Because he had that look, the glasses, nerdy guy doing all the tech stuff. Yeah. A lot of similarities a little bit in the, I guess... you know, the whole action genre of it all. The Arnold formula. The Arnold formula. Yeah. I love how he was like, I need you to remember these numbers. And she's like, okay, okay. I remember the numbers. And then it's almost like he knew he was going to die. You know, he's like, I'm the tech guy. I'm going to die. Have you seen me? I'm not making it out of this. He's like, I don't go to world's gym. I'm not going to make it out of here. I was surprised that she remembered all the numbers. I forgot them halfway through after she discovered them. I'd be screwed, man. Heck I forgot her name after they introduced her short term memory. She says a lot of his action movies are crafted for him. That's right. Yeah. Who would that be comparable to today? Who, who? A lot of movies that are crafted for one person. Dwayne Rock Johnson. Yes. Oh, my gosh. Did you guys see The Red One? No. Oh, my God. That movie was like it was crafted for him. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, I'd say that's probably true. And it had J.K. Simmons in it. It was like J.K. Simmons is just like playing along, man. Jason Statham. Jason Statham. Oh, yeah. I love the Transporter movies. Yeah. Oh, the beekeeper, the one he did with the beekeeper was pretty good. It doesn't make it any enjoyable movie, but you know, you're getting the same thing from that person every time you get them. I mean, Tom Cruise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And it's almost always like action movies. You notice it's not like, you know, other genres. It's usually like, yeah. And I think it's because we get into a, We get into a pattern as well as movie watchers is that we expect a certain type of movie from somebody. I remember like, you know, Jason Statham, I remember him from, you know, when he, his big breakout for me, at least personally was, you know, the crank movies. Yeah. You remember those where it was cranky crank too, that those movies were crazy. And I was like, okay, this guy is legit. And then he just started action movie after action movie after action movie after that. It's entertainment junk food. It's a guilty pleasure. You're enjoying it. But you're not expecting the highest quality, but it's good. You enjoy it for what it is. It's not Citizen Kane. Yeah. I just use that one. I mean, insert whatever classic movie you feel, but you know. That's true, Shane. Tom Cruise is more that he's an executive producer on the Mission Impossible movies. Here's another one. Adam Sandler. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Oh my God. Adam Sandler, he does his own movies and he basically just says, okay, we're going to do a movie and it's going to be based in Hawaii because I want to take my family to Hawaii. Yeah. And I'll have the production company pay for it. So we're going to do a movie based in Hawaii. It's almost like their Hallmark movies. I cannot wait for happy Gilmore too. Yep. Oh my God. Oh my goodness. I'm looking forward to that. I hope they can strike again with that. Well, you know, I ain't getting too hyped for it because you know how some of the legacy sequels can be. But still, I think it'll be fun. Yeah. They should totally do like one of those big, because they're doing a lot of the robots now. They should do like a robot, but then make its face be Bob Barker and bring it back like AI Bob Barker. Hey, hey. yeah so like I said we're keeping taking like uh talking with running man so of the stalkers who was your favorite I mean of course you know dynamo I know you said dynamo yeah dynamo was really cool uh who's the dude I love the little car he rode around it was awesome buzzsaw buzzsaw buzzkiller yeah buzzsaw yeah buzzsaw yeah titanium coated chains or whatever. Yeah, yeah. They really sold that chainsaw. He's a middle-aged man. I'm like, I need that. Just to clean the brushes. We have to make sure that the movie audience knows this is why that thing can cut through metal. It's because it's a bigger metal. That's a good chainsaw. I can see you going. I need that. That is a very Bo thing to say. Now that you're at this point in your life. Appreciate it. Fireball. Jim Brown. I don't know whose more fake hair was more impressive. Jesse's or Jim's. Well, he's the one who had taken out the last candidates, too, because, you know, they were they were cruising. They were just kind of hanging up in there and they were jerky because they had been burned. Yeah. So he was the one he was the stalker that took out the last contestants that were supposedly. Yeah. They escaped and whatnot. And it's like, no, they didn't. Mm hmm. Yeah. There wasn't a stalker that I didn't like. I really enjoyed every one of them. You know, I, at first when, when. The liners, the quotes. Yes. Oh my goodness. That was a good one. I kind of wonder if, you know, I wonder if they just kind of let Arnold go with that. Like let him do a little improv. It's like, what would you say, Arnold? If we told you the situation, what would you say? That's the line we're going to use. The thing with all the one-liners, I mean, after we finish the movie, I'll put in our Bama Geeks private chat just for Kevin. I'm like, no wonder you love this movie so much. The dad jokes and the puns were there. Now, plane zero. You know, Dynamo, I think for me personally, I think Dynamo would have to be the one just because of the electricity and the energy. But even though at the beginning when he started singing and I'm like, what? Where is he going with this? And then he just started shooting out, you know, bolts. And I'm like, okay, I'm enjoying this. But they were all good. I liked every one of the stalkers. I thought they were fun. And then he could be knocked out by water. Like, literally getting in water. I mean, as soon as you reveal that, any of the runners are just going to find a bucket of water and throw it on him. She says, hey, light bulb. Hey, light bulb. Follow me. It was like when they were talking about he was going to, you know, go back and get Killian. He goes, you're not going to leave? He goes, well, I'd hate to be a liar. You know? Well, and talking about quotes and stuff, I mean, they... Initially, it was said that Arnold's character was supposed to say, I'm coming back to Killian. But, you know, the Whole popularity of the I'll be back. You know, they had to go with that. And also, just in case you're wondering, the body count in this movie was forty one. Wow. A little bit of obscure trivia, too, to add to that, what Jess said here, that I'm going to go and watch this again, and I didn't notice this. There's a poster in the movie at one point that says, The Hate Boat. Yeah, you can see that. I didn't see that. Brock bought that, yeah. Absolutely. He got that. I kind of want that poster now. I want to go see it on that poster, and I'll put it up behind me. The Hate Boat. There was one next to it, and I didn't catch that one, but I did catch Hate Boat. They really went into the dystopian in this. I mean, it was nuts. Oh, yeah. They did. I kind of want a spinoff of Love Boat now called The Hate Boat. Instead of Captain Steubing, it's Captain Stabbing. The whole thing is, yeah, the captain is Eminem or something, you know? Shane says all those odd TV show posters are great. They were. It was a lot of fun. Like I said, this was... For me, this was a fun movie. I had never... I don't know, back there in the eighties, I just didn't have, well, granted, I mean the rated R movies, especially I, I couldn't watch, uh, even though I did sneak around and watch like nightmare and Elm street and everything. Um, but this one just never caught my attention, but I was, and with the, uh, the, uh, non-success of maximum overdrive I was I was you know cautiously optimistic I'm glad I was proven right that uh to to be optimistic at least yeah it was fun I mean bo said it was going to be great I don't I don't remember you saying that about maximum overdrive bo so Running Man has been always one of those guilty pleasures. I love it. I remember it used to be on, it would show up either on, I'm trying to think when it would show up, it would come on USA a lot. I remember any time it would be on, I'd stop and watch it. I can't remember the first time I watched it. It was just one of those movies I had fond memories of it. It still, to this day, I think, still gets tossed around a lot of the Turner Networks movies. It'll get shown every once in a while. yeah the movie is just like a yeah it's like a guilty pleasure a little bit but it's also one that's more palatable you know it's one that I would be comfortable sitting down um exposing someone new to arnold schwarzenegger to that movie as a starter it'd be okay because then you would get all the puns and everything and then it would be a gateway to all the rest of his punny movies yeah you should follow this up with commando like yeah that that would be a good gateway drug to commando yeah to go back and watch commando again oh it's not like I said it's not not oscar worthy but it's it's still fun I have not seen it since the eighties out of curiosity brooke have you seen demolition man when it when it came out okay that was the last time I saw it so I don't I don't remember it very well I mean granted that's not arnold schwarzenegger you know sylvester stallone but that one is also yeah just yeah that's that's a guilty pleasure of mine to watch as well okay Add it to the long list. Because I don't remember. I'll watch that one at least once. Yeah, usually once a year or so. I'll just pull it up and watch it. It's an easy one to watch. Sandra Bullock in her prime as well. Oh, yes. Yeah, Sandra Bullock was in it, yeah. Yes. Very young Sandra Bullock. Yeah, I think it was like one of her first big movies. Mm-hmm. yeah it was funny uh yes the uh that that's what okay you see shane shane's quote right there sorry to interrupt you brock shane's quote right there is a reason that I mentioned this because there's a there's a joke in there where she's talking about this like the sixty seventh amendment or sixty first amendment to the constitution to allow basically to allow arnold to become president because he wasn't a wait, he was president. And anybody that knew back in the day, the rivalry between Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger from movies. Yeah. That was the funniest thing in the world. Well, there's an odd week to that and last action hero too. So I said, don't want to save that one too. So, well, what I was going to say in, in relating back to Sandra Bullock, uh, she, I know her, one of her cousins, uh, and he was telling me when he was telling me and I'm not gonna I'm not gonna reveal where I I met this guy uh because it would it give him away um but when I met him he was he's like did you know that I that I'm cousins with sandra bullock I'm like I I had no idea you know how what I was supposed to know he goes said well we're both from texas you know oh okay he's like we were he said I went over to her house uh it was a couple years before he told me this he it was during the holidays they went over to her house uh just north of austin And he's like, I'm standing in her kitchen and we're just chit chatting and Matthew McConaughey walks in and, you know, standing around the breakfast table. He's with Sandra and, and, and, uh, McConaughey. And I was like, that's just the life right there, man. I would love to meet Matthew McConaughey. All right. All right. All right. He was at, uh, he was at SmackDown. Yeah, he was a SmackDown Friday night in Austin. They got him involved. Did you see that one, Bo? No. No, he and Kevin Owens went at it. Yeah. They exchanged words with one another. Yeah. That was pretty good. I'm trying to remember where Shane's at. We're talking about Ventura's in Demolition Man. I'm trying to remember where he's at in it. It's been a while since I've watched Demolition Man myself. Yeah, it's been a while since I've seen it too. Probably like Brock, much more like when it just came out. You guys don't know how to use the three seashells. No, I know about the three seashells. I know about that. That thing kind of sticks with you. I've heard about the three seashells. Is it kind of like the three corn cobs? Let's not go into that. It's clean. It's clean. An old comedian friend of mine from back home, he was an old country comedian. He's like, yeah, he's like, he was an old farmer as well he's like you know when we were farming we would always have to yeah when we went out to the field we'd have to take three corn cobs with us a red a white two uh two reds and a white we'd first use the red one and then we used the white one to see if we needed to use the other red one Wow. I did not need that visual, man. Wow. Come on. Wow. That sounds painful. Like shells don't? What? At least they're like scoops. Oh, man. You open this door, okay? The highest quality here, folks here at Bama Geeks. Always, always. Look, that joke came from a born and bred Alabama man, okay? Just run with it. He would have been perfectly fine learning the three-seat shells. Oh my God. Okay. How did this get into demolition, man? I'm so sorry. We just got to talk about the, the action movies, things like that. Yeah. So, Oh my, but, uh, I'm, I'm, Bravo, Chase. Bravo. He's been loading that one up. He's like, I know they'll go into a dark corner in a minute. Watch. For our audio listeners, Chase says, but Wu-Tang was too extreme. Okay, Brock. Like, we have nothing to say to that you got us you got us absolutely valid we're still not going to show that we had no idea at the time the Wu-Tang comment was made or that we'd be leading up to this later in the episode so yeah core memories unlocked chase with that long term storytelling well Little did we know. But yeah, I mean, I think honestly, I hate to say it like this. I think we've touched on a lot of good points about the movie and things that we liked about it. And Brock enjoyed it. I did. I really did enjoy it. This was this was one of the recommendations that has pleasantly surprised me so far. I think, I think we've got some pretty good, I think we still got some pretty good recommendations in there. Yeah. We're working up to you watching glorious at this point. No. I did go watch the trailer though. It was like, Hmm. Did you? Yeah. Oh, Jess, you didn't want. Okay. I want your trailer. Does the trailer have JK Simmons's voice in it? Yes. Okay. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Jess, how was the trailer? It's exactly what Kevin said, right? Yeah, pretty much. It's interesting. I don't know if I want to sit down and watch the movie, though. Just from Kevin's description, I don't want to watch the movie. Labyrinth is on deck. Labyrinth is coming very soon. I have not seen Labyrinth ever. And I know that it was just announced that they're about to redo that one or a sequel. Is it a sequel? Are they? How are they going to do that? No way. Yeah. I hope not. Don't do that. Is Jim Henson's company at least involved? I have no idea. I just saw like this week I saw they're going to do a sequel. Which means it would be Disney, right? Because Disney owns Jim Henson's studio, right? I would imagine. A company. I'm not looking. Jesse, you're looking? I'm scared I don't want this forty years after the original nosferatu director robert eggers is making a sequel to david bowie's nosferatu director oh man cult fantasy labyrinth return of the codpiece yeah you're correct there's so okay it's out there in the universe shane says there are sequels and prequels but they're not connected so that is that labyrinth is not going to be connected to it at all but it's a it's going to be so confusing I honestly think that the little worm is the it's like the architect from from from matrix you know and he just like he's like the one who creates all this stuff yeah I would agree with that the little inchworm Hello. No idea what you're talking about. You'll understand. There's a point in the movie where the protagonist is trying to figure out which way to go. And she looks down and there's this little worm in the labyrinth that she's talking to. And he's trying to get her to come into this little hole in the wall. When she's, you know, ginormous compared to him. And, you know, she goes one way and then he's like, well, if she'd have gone that way, she'd have gone directly to the castle. You know, so she could have quickly ended the movie if he had listened to the guy. Yeah, he had to be the little agent of chaos there. Yes. That's the reason I think that he's the architect of all of it. makes sense. I can see that. I had her muted because I was coughing. Sorry. Yeah, it's all over the place. Robert Edgars. Robert Edgars. Alright, so Shane says the people's are short stories and manga that tells the stories of Jared before he became the Goblin King. Well, I mean, that would be interesting. That would be interesting. Okay. I could deal with something like that. Yeah, it'd be kind of good to know a little bit more about him, but I don't know. Maybe I'm just a I'm an old fuddy-duddy, but I don't really think I care to know more about him, honestly. I mean, I'm sure there are people who do. I know many women, girls, whatever, at the time that I dated that were absolutely in love with Labyrinth and all the stuff around it. So they may want to see it, but for me, I'm like, I'm just perfectly fine with the way it was. He was the antagonist of the film. He had a codpiece, and that's all we need to know. The bog of eternal stench. Brock, you'll learn all these things soon. Okay. Like I said, Labyrinth is coming up soon. I don't know when we'll do it. Maybe next episode. But the one after, before we get to that, let's check out Shane's comment. sequels uh mixed bag of the world after jared leaves the world or jennifer connelly's characters brothers when she disappears or stumbles into the world of jared okay oh okay take your word for it I don't know what any of that means yeah that's that's great that's that's complete great but uh yeah as I was saying elaborate maybe next episode uh we'll we'll see we'll discuss um Episode after that, we're hopefully going to do something fun and special. We are knocking on the door of episode one hundred. Y'all can you believe one hundred episodes of this? Yeah. Wow. We would have tolerated me this entire time. It's been amazing. Come on now. Never tolerance. Never tolerance. One hundred. yeah so we're tonight is uh episode uh ninety eight ninety nine will be potentially labyrinth we'll see and then and thank you advisory six thousand thank you congrats on one hundred thank you very much Hey, do we need to do like the kids do at school and dress up like old people? We don't need to dress up. You know, from our member episode, you guys were asking me who we point the t-shirt cannon at. It's advisory six thousand. So that kind of comment gets a t-shirt. That's right. I say so. Yeah. Yeah, we don't know what we're going to do for episode one hundred yet. We're going to all sit down and brainstorm off camera. But March will be four years for us as well. So. Guys, just so you know, I'm pushing for a donkey tank. Mike, we know a lot of Mike's. Yeah. That Mike. Which are you, Mike, from Houston? Houston. From Texas. I know his username on other things, and I don't think so. Is that Mike from, as in, aha, yeah, that Mike. Oh, hey, Mike, okay. That Mike. There you go. Yeah. Well, I mean, Mike, we don't have to do the T-shirt. Mike Wazowski. That's exactly it. Mike Wazowski. Thank you, Mike Wazowski. Gotcha. Okay. So when we actually do produce memorabilia and swag and stuff like that, Mike, we'll give you a shirt. No, we're not doing that now. We know it's Mike. So I'm proposing for the hundredth episode, we do a dunking tank and we'll put Mike in it. He's a Patreon supporter. Yeah. Freedom like that? You know what? That's what you get for being a Patreon supporter. You get to be an authority. Your five bucks a month makes you wet. There you go. He's got it. Thanks for doing what you want to do for this podcast. I sincerely appreciate that. Thanks for your money. We're just going to dunk you. It's for the, it's Brock. It's all about the marketing. It's the privilege. It's so Bo doesn't have to do it. I've been in a dunking tank before. I've knocked you. I have. Yeah, actually brought, you know, he had the pleasure of dunking me in the dunking tank one time. Yeah. It's fun, actually. It needs to be in the summer, though. Of course. We're not doing the polar plunge right now. Our good friend Phil did a polar plunge over the weekend, didn't he? Yes, he did. Some of the Tennessee Ghostbuster folks did one. Oh my gosh. I've been wrapped up on a blanket for three days. I like warmth. I'm old now. We hope everybody's thawing out from all the snow and ice. If you've experienced that. We need everything back to plain zero. Yeah. Yeah. It's been, uh, as far as at least on the Celsius scale, it's been sub zero. Absolutely. Like you said, if you, if you live in the South and you bought a red parka, this is the time that you use that red parka. Yeah. Yeah. Jay says, we regret to inform you, your session is being demonetized due to the following statement. Your five bucks a month gets you wet. I thought that, but I wasn't going to say it. Well, it was a good run while we had it. Now Mike is really in. Now, just to make it up to Chase, we need to do a Wu-Tang heavy episode. I'm down. Wu-Tang is something to mess with. Just for Chase. Well, I am super glad that you enjoyed the movie, Brock. We are now one for one with that, I guess. I think we've got a couple of good ones lined up. We still have Goonies to go. We still have Labyrinth. We still have... Big Trouble in Little China. Big Trouble in Little China. We've got a lot of ones I thoroughly know I'm going to enjoy because Jessica likes these movies. So if she, Jessica and I have the same brain. We really, really do. I'm driving to her work the other night and she's like, hey, do we want to get a Red Baron's pizza? Yeah. Three minutes earlier, before I pulled into her workplace, I was thinking, maybe we ought to go grab her like a Red Baron pizza tonight. Legitimately, that happened. We have shown a clip. We've shown a clip on our social media of us and how we think. So, yeah. So, if Jess is going to like something, I'm going to like something, unless it's pickles. Yeah. I will say I am looking forward to The Goonies, though, because this past week I watched The Goonies with someone who hadn't seen it before as well. And just seeing the reaction was really fun of a lot of parts and a lot of things that go on in the movie. So I'm really looking forward to seeing how you react to that one because that's a very, very good movie. And Corey Fulman does not have a Rambo tough guy voice in the Goonies. And Sean Astin's in it and Sean's coming to, to iron city comic-con here in Birmingham soon. So I'd like to be able to go up and say, sir, I enjoyed you in the Goonies, not just stranger things like all the other little Gen Z years know you from. I just saw it last year or I just saw it like a couple months ago or something. Sorry, Emily. Yes. Yeah, Shane, I pull up Shane's comment here. Yes, I won't. I won't brought to know what Jack Burton says at a time like this. Yes. So that's that's a little trouble. Big trouble. Little China reference. So. That movie is so off the rails weird. I love that movie so much. It is another definitely, you know, the eighties action product of its time, but semi-truck culture. Yes. And Chase says the group got their name from a series of low budget Kung Fu movies from the sixties called Wu Tang movies. I suggest drunken Wu Tang. It is off the rails and hilarious. Put that on the list. Put that on the list. Put it on the list. Yep. Shane says Goonies also have Keith Kwan. Yeah. Academy Award winner. Yeah. Sorry. How do you pronounce his name? His name is Short Round. Just call him Short Round. Yeah, Short Round. Yeah, he's got Short Round. Yes. By the way, just a non-sponsored endorsement of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. If you haven't played that game yet from Bethesda, highly recommend it. I think I did that earlier in an earlier live stream. I'll do it again because I'm back to playing it. Troy Baker is Harrison Ford is perfect. Nice. Yeah. Heck yeah, man. It's a fun game. Very fun game. Um, so yeah. Okay. Well, somebody remember that name? Uh, drunken Wu Tang. Uh, we, uh, Kiwi Kwan. Okay. Thank you for that. But he wasn't using that as his name. He wasn't using that as his name at the time that Goonies was shot. He was going under Jonathan. Because, you know, at that time, they figured, like, nobody's going to want, you know. John Kwan? Yeah, he wasn't using his true name at that time. He was going under the name Jonathan. Yeah. Okay. Mm-hmm. Okay. All right. And if I was him, I would have just renamed my name to short. Just call myself short round. Yeah. At that point. I mean, gosh, I mean, you guys know me. I've been pulling for, you know, I'm one of the weirdos. It's like my favorite Indiana Jones movie is Temple of Doom. I've always been that way. And everybody's like, why do you think that? I'm like, it's got short round. It's amazing. And then imagine how I felt. when he goes and gets in the movie and he's like Academy Award winner, short round. I'm like, I knew what I was talking about. That was a talent there. I foretold. I still need to watch everything everywhere all at once. I do too. Yeah, we've done watch that. We've talked about it. It's been one of the movies we've talked about. Make sure you get you plenty of popcorn, Jess, because it is a long movie. So watch. It is a long movie. You'll get to a certain part and it'll be like, this is chapter one. Now we're going to chapter two. Oh my gosh. Wow. This movie is long. It's very, very good, but it's a long movie. Yeah. All right. All right. Well, final verdict on The Running Man is thumbs up. Yes. Absolutely. Thumbs up. Two Cadre Colas up. That's right. I wonder if it has the same amount of caffeine as Jolt. I would be willing to bet that Cadre Cola has the other kind of coke in it. Be careful. I got in trouble last episode for saying that word too much. Sprite. Sprite. Jess, I just don't want you to be alone and having to do a re-education for preventing demonetization. I appreciate that. We can both watch the VHS tape. Got my VCR right over there. Still do.
