Blast Hardcheese

I have to bump this thread due to being fairly obsessed with Deadpool since seeing it last weekend. I can't remember the last time I saw a movie that stuck with me in a good way. I loved film. It was clever and cheeky and (above all) fun. Everything from the opening titles, to the slapstick action, to the jokes (yes, I got pretty hardy chuckle out of that Taken line). Above all, Ryan Reynolds owned this movie and did an absolutely amazing job. I know that Paul and Jason have written for the Deadpool comics and would love to hear their (and June's) take on this movie.

Holy shit! I completely forgot about this movie. Yes, Action Jackson is so thoroughly 80's and utterly entertaining. I remember watching this movie as a kid and thinking the cab chase on-foot was utterly ridiculous, but in a fun way. I haven't seen this movie since that one time in the 80's. Does anyone remember if there is a "Hand in your gun and your badge!" scene in this movie?

That or alien back birth(s).

I think that there is a basic conceit in Hollywood that so-called "actions sports" movies need to be grafted onto crime movies for some reason: Premium Rush, Point Break (the shitty remake, not the superior original), and this film. I know I'm missing some more, but there is a trend there.

And don't forget... Midi-chlorians!

Well, at least they all got a pay days out of it. And up until you mentioned it, I forgot that ScarJo was in this turd. Great! Now I feel sorry for Scarlett Johansson.

Dratz!

I'm still optimistic that this film is this years Halloween episode. Oh, and this comment ticks this thread over into the seventh page territory.

Oh, I'm sure they cover all of this in the course of a couple of tie-in novels, comic books, video games, online fan-fic sites and cereal boxes. Or, at least did before Disney hit the reset button.

"Bitches, leave!" The "I Can Dream About You" sequence featuring "The Sorels" (which I fuckin' loved, because, well, you have ears and eyes) helped me win a bet with my wife. In pointing out two of the background singers (one of which is Hollywood Shuffle screenwriter and director Robert Townsend), I also recognized Grand L. Bush (Lethal Weapon, License To Kill, Street Fighter, etc.), better known to Die Hard (R.I.P. Alan Rickman) enthusiasts as FBI Agent "Little" Johnson. No, the other one. My wife was dubious. But I knew it was him. I knew it! He was in junior high during Viet Nam, assholes. And sure enough, one IMDB search later, I was victorious. "We're gonna need more FBI guys, I guess."

Bumping this because of the latest episode of Doug Loves Movies which featured the back and forth between guests Paul Scheer and SW prequels defender and George Lucas devotee, Jacob Sirof. Add RLM's Mike Stoklasa to episode and sit back and listen to the fireworks.

I remember seeing this movie ages ago, and feeling really bad for Prince. I seem to recall a scene where Prince rides a motorcycle onto the phoniest of phony-looking movie sets featuring a bridge (a Graffiti Bridge, natch!), fake foliage, runner water, and a painted background that all looked a hair above the quality usually reserved for high school plays. I don't think I waited around to watch the end.

In the first film, they Team America'd France (minus the satire or wit), then in this film totally obliterate London. Hundreds of thousands of people would have died in that attack. Why was this a part of the movie? Did we really need to see this drool-inducing, horrific bullshit?

I could only manage 13, but here are my favorites of the year: 1. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night 2. Ex Machina 3. Phoenix 4. Mad Max: Fury Road 5. What We Do In the Shadows 6. Star Wars: The Force Awakens 7. All Things Must Pass 8. The Hateful Eight 9. Furious 7 10. Electric Boogaloo: The Wild Untold Story of Cannon Films 11. Morphine: Journey of Dreams 12. Room 13. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation And my least favorites: 1. Spectre 2. Fantastic Four 3. American Ultra 4. Terminator: Genisys 5. The Avengers: Age of Ultron 6. Cinderella 7. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Pt. 2 8. The Kingsmen:The Secret Service 9. Entourage 10. 50 Shades of Grey

With his "blaster."

Hmm... I did notice that. How does Poe feel about entering in to a relationship with someone who also has an astromech droid?

Lando can hit on your lady right in front of you. He can betray you to the Empire. He can wear your clothes and scrape the satellite dish off your ship after you lent it to him. He can... Wait. Did I just undo my whole justification? FUUUUUUUUCK!!! I'll give you this: Poe is dreamy. Damn dreamy! But I think Lando would work harder to seal the deal and follow through with the fireworks. Also, he's got that bad boy streak going for him. Sex with Poe would be one level-up from sex with Maverick from Top Gun; it would be mostly about him. "Dude, I'm not an X-Wing! Level out and save those torpedoes until I've got mine, okay?" Number 1 on my relationship list? Wedge. He knows how to get things done, and seems to have his shit together.

You sank my Battleship! No, wait. Hasbro Studios already did that.

Oh, you know I hold your opinion in the highest esteem, Cameron, especially when it comes to objectifying and ranking dudes. And for the record, Lando is No.2 on my Hot Guys of the Star Wars (movie) Universe list - as he should be on yours. Never let the smooth taste fool you into believing otherwise.

That's the same reaction my wife had to him. To quote: "Yeah… well... " He doesn't *seem* like a bad looking guy to me; perhaps a bit too emo/Martin Shkreli-ish as far as evilness goes, but not ugly. He’s more like an elongated Han Solo, but without the dashing charm or rouge-ish charisma. But then again, when your dad is Han Solo, you're pretty much screwed in the comparison department.

As a woman, what's your take on Ben Solo/Kylo Ren? Hot or not?

Or, at the very least, be featured on a Amazing Fantasy-style Spider-Man variant cover.

No more ridiculous than tying all of Hasbro's toy universes into one gawdawful cinematic universe: http://www.inquisitr.com/2649074/the-hasbro-paramount-pictures-gi-joe-transformers-micronauts-mask-toys-rom-toys-visionaries/

I have a theory that posits that when the end of this podcast finally (sadly) arrives, Showgirls is going to be the final movie Paul, June and Jason review. April Richardson should definitely have a guest spot, but I see her on the *fingers crossed* Saved By the Bell: Wedding In Las Vegas episode of HDTGM.

Not at all.That's the exact reason I clicked on this thread again, too.
