Lethal Weapon 2 (1989) ITS JUST BEEN REVOKED Mar 13, 2020

Show notes

Week 2 which means the second Lethal Weapon. The Boys mention how this was kind of being a soft reboot, Joe Pesci’s amazing ability to go from a scary psycho to a weak little worm, how weird it is to see Mel Gibson making fun of white supremacist’s, and the logic of covering up a drug operation by blowing up a bunch of cops.

Also discussed: fat people on planes asking for extra food since they had to buy 2 seats for their fat…behinds, Riggs with a pool cleaner as a Mortal Kombat character, planting bombs under a diving board surrounded by water, and Danny Glover’s amazing one liners.

Also, the boys perfect the South African accent and Patriots owner Robert Kraft stops by.

Lethal Weapon (1987) Mullets, Guns, And Getting Too Old Mar 06, 2020

Show notes

Tims reckoning is here as the boys begin their Lethal Weapon month!

The bad boys break down the entire plot and discuss things like: Jenny from Forest Gump stealing the opening jumper scene, 3 straight intros of characters who are naked, all the buddy cop tropes that were created in this movie, crazy amounts of eggnog at a funeral, Gary Busey going absolutely nuts half way through this and shooting people out helicopters and moving cars, LA traffic and the amount of people who should have died during the Mr Joshua-Riggs shootout, and who would win in a real fight, Gary Busey or Mel Gibson?

Also, the boys create 2 new horrific urban dictionary terms, Johns beliefs on anti-Semitism aging you 1.5 times faster….and why do movies always have a hard drinking junk food eating leading man who then has a 6 pack and looks like Mel Gibson?

All of this and Halloween 3 Dr Dan references, lots of screaming and sax music on an explosive new Lethal Weapon! ….I mean Hold My Popcorn

Garden State (2004) Standing In The Rain Listening To The Shins Feb 27, 2020

Show notes

For the final movie of “Ladies Pick Em’ Month” Johns wife selected the indie soundtrack featuring a Zack Braff movie: Garden State….and the boys surprising enjoyed it!

That said, there’s still plenty to laugh about as they discuss how important the music was to the vibes of the movie, Andrew possibly being a serial killer in LA, Natalie Portman saying the R word like 20 times and possibly being bipolar, Mike Bloomberg NDA’s, a very special jeopardy sponsor tie in, and this movie being real low stakes.

Also, did true detective base Rust Cole’s apartment after Andrews? Why did Natalie Portman character have epilepsy if it never comes back in the plot? Shouldn’t she have had an attack at a pivotal moment of the movie? How can a rich kid who went to a boarding school not know how to swim?

All of this and more!

Pretty Woman (1990) Feb 07, 2020

Show notes

This month, the boys are letting the ladies pick their movies, and first up is the fairy tale love story - produced by Disney - where a wholesome, charismatic street sex worker and a cut throat corporate raider fall in love: Pretty Woman!

The boys breakdown Vivian’s rate structure and how she got upgraded from a hooker to high class escort, the 80’s and early 90’s being one long SVU episode, how the polo scene with Jason Alexander would be completely different with a Seinfeld laugh track, knuckle babies, and Tim recounts a second hand pretty woman story that did not end well.

Then, the show really goes off the rails around the 52 minute mark.

Point Break (1991) Jan 30, 2020

Show notes

The boys wrap up their January mini series “It’s new to me!” Where each cohost selected a movie they had never seen but always wanted to watch, with the 1991 surfing bank robbery action cult classic Point Break!

This episode has lots ,and lots, and LOTS of Gary Busey jokes, as well as the late 80’s early 90’s action troupes that you no longer see in movies, the sexual tension between Swayze and Keanu, women with short haircuts, Anthony Kiedis’s weird ear cornrows, the madness of having Tom Sizemore and Busey on the same set, the aftermath of that “Utah..two” scene, jumping out of planes without parachutes, and Ice T from Law & Order makes another appearance.

Also, why do FBI bank robbery agents need to fish for bricks at the bottom of a pool blindfolded? Does John think that Swayze is Gary Busey? How would a Joan Rivers red carpet interview go with this cast? Also, thank God for John Wick because some of Keanu’s acting in this is not great.

Mortal Kombat (1995) Jan 24, 2020

Show notes

The boys are back and they are talking about a movie that isn’t as good as they remembered…or hoped with the 1995 video game action adaptation Mortal Kombat.

Why is the Japanese God of lightning played by Christopher Lambert? And is Lambert actually Thomas Jane, an android, or just a bad actor? What was going on during this scorpion Johnny Cage fight? Why does the entire movie set look like a party city display? Did they forgot to film 20% of this movie?

Besides the plot points topics include casting what if’s, Sonja being a bad b, Michael Jackson being one of the fighter characters, Australian rednecks, and John forgot to record for the first 40 minutes of the episode so enjoy his crappy Skype audio quality!
