    Hi so, the move has been taxing as is my new sleep schedule. I was mid move on wednesday so I will be streaming tomorrow night starting around.... oh I don't know how does 7pm EST sound?

  • chrisnlchrisnl Registered User regular
    Are we still allowed to make suggestions? Because I thought of a couple in the last few days.

    First of all, a very early 80s comic book movie (no really!), Condorman http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082199/

    And secondly, a Christmas special that I have always loved but is fairly obscure, A Claymation Christmas Celebration http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0272045/

    And I am guessing that the next stream is Monday at 7pm EST? Hopefully I'll be able to make at least some of that one.

    You need to sneak in Black Christmas in there for a true Christmas stream. The 1974 version.

    Or Silent Night, Deadly Night

    CONDORMAN IS SO COOL!!! Seriously, one of my favorite movies and I wish I could own it on blu-ray.

    The Porsche 911s in Condorman were really informative for my love of cars. That model has always had a special place in my heart.

    I'm actually kind of stoked that I am not alone in fondly remembering Condorman. They had some quality stunt driving for sure.

    I've been going through episodes of RLM's Best of the Worst the last few days while I work and there's apparently a second movie with Leo Fong and Cameron Mitchell called "Low Blow". That would be great for the "Kill Point" encore as a back to back.

    Yesterday I watched a neighborhood turn into a literal war zone and the cops' best plan was to send this random guy who apparently has a history as a hard-boiled vigilante in to take care of a gang of hundreds. Somehow, the National Guard was not called.

    Airplane! was never my jam, but until last night I never realized just how much of that film jokes about really unfunny shit, like PTSD, child abuse, pedophelia, homophobia, rampant sexism, racism, and suicide. That movie leans hard into all of that.

    That is practically guaranteed for a 1980's comedy.

    You may want to watch Revenge of The Nerds again. Or not. Probably not.
    With the possible exception of suicide and PTSD (unless you count the sequels), I'm pretty sure it hits all those notes.

    Maybe not as clearly as Airplane, but they're there.

    Does the black, gay nerd not count?

    Did Ghostbusters have any of that stuff? Its issues nowadays have more to do with the Reagan era "government regulation bad" themes.

    I was being sarcastic.

    "Hey, this movie isn't so bad, only had a few rape jokes" is not a literal statement of support I would make.

    C'mon, people.

    I love that film, but parts of it get harder to defend as I get older.

    The scene where Peter checks out Dana's apartment is basically five minutes of him sexually harassing her and badgering her for sex and her getting really pissed off about it. In the 80s, this was supposed to be endearing; it showed Peter as a loose and grounded "guy's guy" and introduced Dana as "cold and uptight." Nowadays it plays really really differently.

    And to your earlier point, Revenge of the Nerds is weirdly progressive (while being horribly stereotyping) in its treatment of its gay character, considering how much it shits on just about everyone else in stupendously regressive fashion.

    On that note, there was a point in Blood Sport last night where this sleezy guy's trying to get in Soon-To-Be Love Interest's pants so Jean-Claude shows up, but he can't fight outside the kumite without being DQ'd, so he challenges him to a coin snatching speed thing. "You win, you get the girl."

    Naturally she's still like "WHAT?! No, that's fucked! I'm out of here!" but all the guys agreed so she kinda had to roll with it.

    I apologize. I really can't detect sarcasm online anymore.
    Used to be if somebody said something outrageously or obviously incorrect i could understand that they're actually (probably) just joking and I shouldn't take what they said at face value because who could actually do, say or think something like that in reality with a straight face?

    Any more though...

    I apologize, I should have thought better in this case.
