I watched the trailer for A Dangerous Man. Did Seagal really not even bother to throw a folder himself? The answer is of course he used one. The whole thing of being a buttery action star who does very little action taxes him greatly. Also WOW we go dark even in the trailer.

I don't know about A Dangerous Man, but there are several films of his where he does not come back for ADR, so half his dialogue is dubbed by someone doing a bad Seagal impression. Asking him to throw something seems like too much effort.

He’s probably the worst action star who got their start because of the mafia and has been credibly accused of human trafficking.

Seagal's entire persona is like that one guy at the tabletop RPG store who will spin you yarns about his secret work in black ops and all of it is BS. The closest he gets to it is he did in fact study aikido in Japan but he even passed his certification because the judge was notorious for not really paying attention and even falling asleep during the demonstrations. Shooing away a loud drunk outside the dojo turned into lethal back alley brawls with the yakuza. If he weren't such a monster he'd be a goldmine.

I got to play this this weekend and this was a ton of fun with the right group of goofy friends. If you have a group of folks who are good at quiplash then its great, if not, skip it. It is funny to me there's a small group of reviewers that don't understand the concept of riffing and are mad its not just another dubbing game (the previous game the folks made).

The clip selection is great. We've seen Measuring Man, Fun in Balloonland, and Cat-Women of the Moon so far.

Last week's release, Jurassic Shark is definitely a weird one. Mainly because it is a shark attack movie where all they have is an off the shelf CG plug in for the shark so it barely does anything and almost never actually interacts with the cast.

Just left the RiffTrax version finished and while I didn't enjoy it as much as the MST3k one it drove me to look up what was so bad about the Bronx in the 70's that it inspired these two dystopian films : A massive wave of poverty motivated arsons following urban decay

# ? Jun 6, 2022 19:19 |

Yeah but why did Italy look like that

# ? Jun 6, 2022 19:21 |

This is still a mystery to me, maybe in another 20-30 years I'll get inspired to look that up too.

Lest we forget the classic headline, "FORD TO CITY: DROP DEAD", back when NYC was basically bankrupt and begging for federal assistance during the Gerald Ford administration

watching any documentary about NYC in the 70s is wild. huge parts of it were just straight-up bombed out third world countries

Even movies like The French Connection or Taxi Driver give a really good indication of the sort of urban decay that was going on in the Big Apple back in the 1970s, if you want to watch something set in NYC without a post-apocalypse or sci-fi element.

This might have just been limited to San Francisco, but fires went up and fire department responses went down every time a fire station was closed in a poor area. I wouldn't be surprised if they did that in NYC too.

This is one of those films where some shitheads recruit other shitheads (american) to mess with Cuba and then die horribly, which, you know, a good genre of film.

Much like other Corman movies the ridiculous number of subplots doesn't make the film feel like anything is happening.

If I’m remembering right, that movie was sold on the fact that one the guys in it looks a lot like Humphrey Bogart.
