‘Ghostbusters’ Movie Summary

In 1984’s Ghostbusters, Columbia University professors Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, and Egon Spengler study parapsychology—otherwise known as bullshit pseudoscience. You know, like astrology, creation science, chiropractors, homeopathy, and Scientology. Fortunately, one of America’s finest universities recognizes the ridiculousness of this area of study, and it defunds their grant.

They don’t let this momentary unemployed slow down their passion for ghosts. They arm themselves with some nuclear proton guns, and start a small business called Ghostbusters. If you need someone to trap spooky ghouls, ghosts, poltergeists, and specters, they men are the fellas to call; they ain’t afraid.

Their first customer is the panty wearing Alien killer herself; Ripley…I mean Dana Barrett. The Temple of the Dog, Zuul, possesses her refrigerator, and looks to corrupt her quirky neighbor, Louis. Venkman takes an interest in the permed out cellist. He wants to make his own type of white noise with her; if you know what I mean.

Business continues to be slow until they get a call from an effeminate hotel manager and encounter a slimer. Slimer is kind of like Rosi O’Donnell. It’s fat, disgusting, eats and drinks anything in sight and leaves an ectoplasmic residue in its wake. They are able to capture this ghost using their proton guns and ghost trap.

Universal Pictures released National Lampoon’s Animal House to theaters on July 28, 1978. John Landis directed the film starring John Belushi, Karen Allen, and Tom Hulce.

‘National Lampoon’s Animal House’ Movie Summary

Animal House is a tale about one group attempting to impose their will over another…Wait…That’s Animal Farm.  Animal House is about one group attempting to impose their will over another.  The movie takes place at Faber College in 1962’s America, a time of innocence before JFK died and the goddamn hippies ruined the country.  It begins with a fat slob, Kent Dorfman, aka Flounder, and his roommate, Larry Kroger, aka Pinto, rushing various college fraternities.  The fascist Omega house shuns the two and forces them to spend time with foreigners and other losers during their rush party.  The two go to the next house, the Delta house, which couldn’t be more different.  The Deltas rush the potentials with beer, fun, and a drunk brother named Bluto pissing on their legs.  Eric “Otter” Stratton, the rush chair, is even damn glad to meet them.

Next, Vernon Wormer, the Dean of Faber College, meets with the president of Omega house and poster boy for the Hitler Youth, Greg Marmalard.   Dean Wormer wants to kick Delta House off the college more than a fat guy wants a cheap all you can eat buffet.  The Dean puts the Deltas on “Double-Secret Probation” upon learning the Deltas were already on probation and enlisted Marmalard and his minions in his quest to impose his will.

During ROTC calisthenics, Neidermeyer, another Omega House preppy, bullies Flounder.  Brothers Bluto, played by John Belushi, and D-Day, played by the poor man’s Dan Aykroyd, devise a scheme for Flounder to get back at Neidermeyer and stick it to the dean at the same time.  The three go all Godfather and sneak Neidermeyer’s horse in the Dean’s office.  Bluto and D-Day then give Flounder a gun, to do what we all know what must be done.  Unbeknownst to Flounder, however, Bluto and D-Day previously loaded the gun with blanks.

Paramount Pictures released 48 Hrs. to theaters on December 8, 1982. Walter Hill directed the film starring Nick Nolte, Eddie Murphy, and Annette O’Toole.

’48 Hrs.’ Movie Summary

What could go wrong if you place the most dangerous convicts into the community at large, and provide them with tools that can double as potential weapons to kill their guards? Well, when full-time killer and part-time criminal, Albert Ganz, works roadside on a chain gang in California, he takes the opportunity to use his hoe to split a few heads open, and then escape with his faithful Native American companion Billy Bear at his side quicker than you can say, “Hi-yo, Silver, away!”

A few days later, the murderous pair arrive in San Francisco, drop in on an old friend and kill him. Fresh off the heels of that murder, our boys set out to kill…some time; taking in the sites of the Golden City. And by sites, I mean hookers. And not the Julia Roberts Pretty Woman type of hookers. More like the kind that would cause you to buy “I got crabs in San Francisco” t-shirt even though you didn’t eat seafood.

Anyways, while Ganz and Billy are site seeing, the duo is interrupted by two San Francisco Police Detectives who are running down a lead on some stolen credit cards. Ganz and Billy shoot the detectives, and then try to flee their hotel, but our hero of the film, Inspector Jack Cates, played by the gravelly voiced Nick Nolte, stops them.

Paramount Pictures released Pet Sematary to theaters on April 21, 1989. Mary Lambert directed the film starring Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby, and Fred Gwynne.

‘Pet Sematary’ Movie Summary

From the mind of Stephen King, and the author who Chris believes has a terminal case of verbal diarrhea, comes this week’s film PET SEMATARY. The film introduces us to Louis and Rachel Creed who relocate their family from Chicago to Ludlow, Maine after Louis accepts a job as a doctor with the University of Maine. Besides Ma and Pa Creed, the family has two children, Ellie and Gage, and their cat, Church.



The road in front of the new Creed homestead doubles as the final lap of the Indianapolis 500 with semi-trucks racing to see what they can hit quicker than you can scream, “Gage, look out for that truck!” 



Fred Gwynne plays the Creed’s neighbor, old Jud Crandall. He’s just 23 years removed from playing Herman Munster, and 3 years shy of referring to the “two Utes” whatever that is. Jud is a widower who lost his wife during the adaptation of the book which is a horrible way to go. The Creeds quickly adopt him as one of their own, and he becomes Louis’ confidant. Jud entertains the Creeds with wholesome activities such as visits to the pet cemetery in the woods where the town buries all the roadkill from the semi-trucks.

Universal Pictures released Streets of Fire to theaters on June 1, 1984. Walter Hill directed the film starring Michael Paré, Diane Lane, and Rick Moranis.

‘Streets of Fire’ Movie Summary

Streets of Fire is a self-styled Rock-and-Roll Fable. Set in a time and place reminiscent of grungy downtown Detroit in the middle of the 1950s, but featuring neon lights, color televisions, and 80s-style music videos. Supervixen rocker and hometown kid-done-good Ellen Aim puts on a concert in front of a bunch of frenzied fans, including gang leader Raven Shattock and his bunch of thugs known as the Bombers.

Raven instantly falls in lust with our lovely Milli Vanilli-wannabe chick. So, Raven and his Bombers choose the perfect time to kidnap her which happens to be as soon as the song ends. In the ensuing chaos, the Bombers assault the backup band, kidnap Ellen and throw her onto a motorcycle while police cruisers inexplicably launch into parked cars, and women’s tops tear off their bodies. Isn’t that what’s supposed to happen in a Rock-and-Roll Fable?

Somewhere in the world, the uber-mench Tom Cody receives an urgent telegram. Cody shows up that night on a train because obviously time doesn’t exist in a Rock-and-Roll Fable. Cody visits the diner where his sister hasn’t seen him for years.

Twentieth Century Fox released The Cannonball Run to theaters on June 19, 1981. Hal Needham directed the film starring Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore, and Farrah Fawcett.

‘The Cannonball Run’ Movie Summary

Based on a real cross-country car race that ran for several years in the 1970’s from Darien, Connecticut to Redondo Beach, California, The Cannonball Run, is simple; drive fast, don’t stop, and never ever let the po-pos pull you over.

A plethora of stars from the late 70s and early 80s entertainment world bring the sex, drugs, and rock n roll lifestyle to automobile racing. There’d be a better chance of catching Farrah Fawcett wearing a bra in this film than character development or traditional three-act structure, and really nobody wants that here anyway.

Warner Bros. released Funny Farm to theaters on June 3, 1988. George Roy Hill directed the film starring Chevy Chase, Madolyn Smith Osborne, and Kevin O’Morrison.

‘Funny Farm’ Movie Summary

Chevy Chase and Madolyn Smith play Andy and Elizabeth Farmer, a couple of yuppies from New York City. The happy pair is over the Big Apple, and they decide to move to the Connecticut countryside for some peace and quiet. Andy is professional sportswriter looking to write his great American novel about an ex-Marine turned journalist named I. M. Fletcher. Elizabeth is a happy housewife by day and an urban cowgirl at night, but that’s for another podcast. The two are a match made in vulgarian heaven.

Throughout this hilarious fish-out-of-water tale, Andy and Elizabeth must endure sign-stealing teenagers, telephone-less houses, starvation diets, and drunk-driving mailmen tossing deliveries into tiny mail boxes like a stumbling barfly playing darts at 2am. Even their furniture arrives late due to a disintegrating bridge and a poorly drawn map. You ever notice the smaller the town, the more detailed the directions to a place are?

Once the Farmers settle into their new Rockwellian paradise, the hilarity continues with Andy’s writer’s block. So instead of singing Snow White songs to the birds, Andy tosses a steaming cup of his mocha frustrations at them. He then buys a heavenly dog named Benji which reincarnates its ass out of the town before Andy can fuck up its life too, and then, if that’s not enough, Andy discovers a dead body buried on the farm. The undertaker’s small-town prices are killer, but this is comedy gold we’re talking about, so it pays for itself.

‘Alien’ Plot Synopsis

Alien begins in the distant future as the commercial spaceship, Nostromo, returns to Earth. When it intercepts a distress call from a distant moon, the ship’s android wakes the seven-member crew from hypersleep. They all then head to the source of the signal. While exploring the moon, a small team of the crew comes across a derelict spaceship with a section containing thousands of eggs. When one of the crew nears the egg, the parasite inside it attaches to his face. They bring him back onboard, and the spaceship takes off.

Paramount Pictures released The Bad News Bears to theaters on April 7, 1976. Michael Ritchie directed the film starring Walter Matthau, Tatum O’Neal, and Vic Morrow.

‘The Bad News Bears’ Movie Summary

Bob Whitewood hires Morris Buttermaker, a former minor-league baseball pitcher and current alcoholic pool cleaner, to coach the Bears; a last-minute addition to a Little League baseball team in Southern California. The Bears are composed of the worst kids around with no baseball skills. The only reason they have a team is because of a settlement of a lawsuit Whitewood brought against the league.

Buttermaker’s team is bad. Pitcher Rudy Stein is near-sighted. Catcher Mike Engleberg spends more time eating than playing. Shortstop Tanner Boyle cusses like a drunken sailor, and gets into fights like one too. Ahmad Abdul Rahim wants to be the next Hank Aaron, but can’t hit, can’t catch, and can’t run. Timmy Lupus is a booger-eating spaz who gets picked as much as his nose. There’s a few Mexican immigrants thrown in with some other kids to round out the team. This team is so bad, only Chico’s Bail Bonds will sponsor this team.

In their opening game, the Yankees open up a can of whoop ass on the Bears, and Buttermaker forfeits the game after the Yankees score 26 runs in the first inning. Humiliated, the team quits the next day. Buttermaker yells at them, and says quitting is a habit they don’t want to start. He then orders them to get their asses on the field.

Universal Pictures released Halloween II on October 30, 1981. Rick Rosenthal directed the film which starred Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence, and Charles Cyphers.

‘Halloween II’ Movie Summary

In the spirit of such 80’s sequels as The Sting II, Grease 2, Poltergeist II: The Other Side, and Fletch Lives, John Carpenter continues the tradition of following a god damned American classic with a meaningless money grab disguised as a film sequel.

Halloween II once again has the show down between “The Shape”, Michael Myers, versus “The Body”, Jamie Lee Curtis. The difference in this film, it doesn’t take place on Halloween, it takes place on November 1st.

The film picks up where the last film left off, with Dr. Loomis putting six in the center mass of Michael and knocking him off a two story balcony. However, this is a sequel, so they have to up the ante. In the beginning of this film, Loomis fires seven shots from his six shooter. When Loomis goes to check on the Michael’s body, “The Shape” is gone.

Meanwhile, Laurie Strode, played by Curtis, is taken to the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital to be treated for her injuries. Haddonfield is the healthiest place in America, because it appears that there are no other patients in the hospital and they only need a skeleton crew to take care of their “patient.” While Laurie is being treated, Loomis continues his obsessive quest to find Michael. After scaring one unfortunate teenager into oncoming traffic, Loomis is left by himself to conduct the search since the police department is as busy as their hospitals.

Warner Bros released Presumed Innocent on July 27, 1990. Alan J. Pakula directed the film which starred Harrison Ford, Raul Julia, and Greta Scacchi.

‘Presumed Innocent’ Movie Summary

Presumed Innocent tells the story of the murder investigation of assistant district attorney Carolyn Polhemus, played in flash backs by Greta Scacchi. Polhemus is found murdered in her apartment. She has appeared to be tied up, raped, and then bludgeoned to death. The district attorney Raymond Horgan, who is the process of losing an election, puts his best man on the job, Rozat “Rusty” Sabich, played by Han Fucking Solo himself, Harrison Ford.

Rusty doesn’t want the job, and not just because he is the process of looking for a new barber for himself. No, he doesn’t want it because just like every other character in the film, he has slept with the victim previously. However, no one knows that, except for Rusty’s wife. And we are never given the story of how she found that little gem out.

With reluctance, Rusty goes about determining who got the last turn on the town bicycle. They have some good evidence. Polhemus is tied up, so they think it may have been one of the many pervy sex offenders that she prosecuted. They have a beer glass with fingerprints on it. They have dead sperm in her vagina, which in 1990, was pre-DNA so they could only get blood type off it.

Paramount Pictures released The Warriors to theaters on February 9, 1979. Walter Hill directed the film starring Michael Beck, James Remar, and Dorsey Wright.

The Warriors Movie Summary

The Warriors takes place in a magical land called New York. Where each gang is assigned a fashion designer – while some designers are fashion forward with Broadway flare -like the Baseball Furies (a mix of Clockwork Orange, Damn Yankees, and Cats) other settle for overalls and roller skates (I am thinking that these designers really liked the closing scene in every Chips episode – except Ponch and John looked much tougher).

The story begins with the Warriors being invited to a New York gang convention pit on by the Gramercy Rifts – the Rifts are black guys with black belts – picture an army of Jim Kellys (not the Buffalo Bill quarterback) and you have the Gramercy Rifts.

The Warriors represent Coney Island and are made up of white guys (including Dexter’s dad), blacks guys, and Jews. They became the gang of Coney Island because Disneyland was too tough to conquer and Dollyworld is too gay. Isn’t being a badass gang from Coney Island like being a dangerous cage fighter trapped in Shirley Temple’s body – like a Shirley “Temple of Doom” (which I believe is a name of a band).

Universal Pictures released Into The Night to theaters on February 22, 1985. John Landis directed the film starring Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Stacey Pickren.

Into The Night Movie Summary

Jeff Goldblum plays a depressed insomniac by the name of Ed Okin, the 80’s equivalent to Rami Malek. A kind of weird, socially awkward man with big eyes. Although the 80’s version of Elliot Alderson also works with computers, Ed at least marries.

Ed discovers his wife’s affair which compounds his sleep issues. Instead of confronting the cheating bitch about it, Ed jumps into the hatchback. He then heads off to the airport with visions of Sin City in his future. Once at the airport, Ed encounters the unusually beautiful Diana, played by Michelle Pfeiffer. Four Iranian assassins attack Diana and her would be male suitor in the airport’s garage. The assassins, who are a cross between the Three Stooges and Corporal Hudson from Aliens, are able to kill Diana’s male companion, but Diana is able to escape. She runs into Ed in his car, who quickly gets the beautiful girl out of the garage and into his heart. While they could go to the police, Diana leads Ed on tour of Los Angeles filled with Hollywood directors.

Eventually, Diana reveals the reason she can’t go to the police. You see, Diana smuggled stolen emeralds from the treasury of the Shah of Iran into the United States. She hid them in Aphrodite’s personal handbag, the vajayjay, because today’s modern woman knows her love box is one presidential handshake away from #metoo mania.

Paramount Pictures released Saturday Night Fever to theaters on December 16, 1977. John Badham directed the film starring John Travolta, Karen Lynn Gorney, Barry Miller.

‘Saturday Night Fever’ Movie Summary

Meet Tony Manero. He’s an Uber-arrogant 19-year-old Italian kid from Brooklyn. He’s got a walk that makes women swoon, a perfectly blow-dried head of hair, and a dead end job at a hardware store selling paint to old ladies.

On weekends, he and his buddies dance it up at 2001 Odyssey, the local disco watering hole and strip club. While Tony may not have a penny to his name, he’s the sexiest dancer on the Christmas-lit dance floor. All the ladies want to dance and have sex with him, but not necessarily in that order.

In between dance practices and showing off at the club, Tony and buddies fight rival gangs (although his buddy, Bobby, pusses out). However, they do bang loose women in the back of Bobby’s car, but only for ten minutes at a time. Going longer wouldn’t be fair to the other guys when it’s their turn; women’s feelings be damned!

Tony’s big brother, who’s a lousy actor, brought shame on the entire family when he quit the priesthood. Although his brother’s big speech telling us why he quit was cut from the movie, you don’t miss anything because that actor can’t act his way out of a paper bag.

Tony asks his on-again/mostly off-again girlfriend, Annette, to practice for the upcoming dance contest. But during one of the practice sessions, he spots the sexy, equally arrogant and uglier Manhattan-wannabe, Stephanie, and decides she’s a better partner…and we’re not just talking dance partner.

Atlantic Releasing Corporation released Teen Wolf on August 23, 1985. Rod Daniel directed the film which starred Michael J. Fox, James Hampton, and Susan Ursitti.

‘Teen Wolf’ Movie Summary

Scott Howard under-achieves in high school on an under-achieving basketball team. He lives in an under-achieving little town in middle America. He kinda works at his nice-guy father’s hardware store. He has a crush on the hottest girl in school, Pamela, who is dating 27-year-old town bully, Mick, who plays on the opposing team. Scott has a con-artist best friend named Styles who loves to surf on top of Scott’s work van and never says die when it comes to buying a keg of beer. Scott has an adorable girl-next-door he’s known all his life named Boof who has the hots for mild-mannered Scott. But Scott is too worried about his lousy hook shot, his six-dollar haircut and a new rash that he’s experiencing at all the wrong times to notice Boof’s obvious advances.

One night, after an especially heated closet tumble with Boof at the most sexualized high school party in recent memory, Scott goes home and immediately does the PG-version of the American Werewolf in London quick-change into a miniature wookie…. I mean a werewolf. Scott’s father meets him at the door in matching Chewbacca, I mean werewolf costume and explains it’s a family heirloom, I mean curse, that may or may not pass from generation to generation. The next morning, Scott’s father tells him when he wants it, Scott has great power. What his father fails to tell him is what those powers are once he becomes a wolf, because it’s a coming-of-age movie and why spoil the surprise.

Scott decides to hide the family secret only until the next day when he turns into the wolf so he can sniff out Styles’ stash of marijuana. During the next basketball game, Scott gets fouled and in a heated dogpile of bodies, Scott gets angry and turns into a mix of Sasquatch and Bill Walton on the court in front of everyone. Scott instantly becomes the second-coming of Magic Johnson in a headband and puts on a basketball clinic, winning the game with a series of awfully edited dunk shots.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) released Running Scared to theaters on June 27, 1986. Peter Hyams directs the film which stars Gregory Hines, Billy Crystal, and Steven Bauer.

‘Running Scared’ Movie Summary

Two New York City cops are ready for retirement, but before they do, they want to bust a big drug kingpin.  MGM wanted Gene Hackman and Paul Newman to play the two leads.  But after signing director Peter Hyams to the project, they were convinced that the two heroic cops should be younger…and from Chicago.  MGM then went after Tom Selleck and John Travolta to play the lead roles of Hughes and Costanzo.

Unfortunately, Selleck had to turn down the role due to commitments to Magnum P.I.  And Travolta had several massages scheduled for that month.  So MGM had to find their two hard as nails cops somewhere else.  Eventually, they settled on the obvious choices of Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal.

Hines , best known for dancing his way through The Cotton Club and White Nights, and Crystal, best known at the time for Saturday Night Live, but whose best known film role had been a pregnant man in 1978’s Rabbit Test.  The man’s comedy was ahead of its time, beating Schwarzenegger’s Junior to the punch by nearly 16 years.

Sidney loves the play, and considers it to be near-perfect. So much so, he dreams up a plan to kill Clifford in order to produce the play as his own. When Sidney invites Clifford to his home covered with weapons, Myra realizes that Sidney might just be serious about his plan.

When Clifford arrives, Myra tries to convince Sidney not to go through with the murder, but she fails. Sidney strangles Clifford to death with a chain. The perfect crime, right?

A psychic named Helga, who’s visiting neighbors, suddenly shows up, and senses death in the house. She then leaves with an ominous warning to Sidney that a man in boots will attack him.

Later that night, Myra hears a noise downstairs, and fears they have an intruder. Sidney proves to her there’s nobody in the house, and they return to bed. Suddenly, Clifford breaks into the room, and attacks Sidney with a log. He then chases Myra through the house until her heart gives out, and she dies. Sidney reappears uninjured, and greets Clifford with a tender kiss over Myra’s dead body.

Working Girl Movie Summary

Tess McGill, played by Melanie Griffith with a coked-out bloat, is a stockbroker’s secretary from Staten Island. She has a bachelor’s degree from night school, so of course, she can take on the world. And Tess doesn’t just want to be the head of the secretary pool, she wants an executive position.

Unfortunately, she can’t get anyone to take her seriously. Probably due to the accent Tess. After getting in trouble again, she is reassigned to a new financial executive, Katherine Parker, played by Ellen Fucking Ripley herself, Sigourney Weaver. Katherine encourages Tess to be open with her ideas, which screams back stabbing bitch immediately.

Unfortunately, Tess shares a good idea about a potential merger, and Katherine says she will check into it. However, soon after, Katherine tells her that the idea won’t work. Meanwhile, back at home, Tess’s boyfriend, who looks a lot like Jack Ryan, is cheating on her with one of her friends. Feeling alone, Tess doesn’t know which way to go.

What the group doesn’t know is that an alien from outer space is on a vacation in the jungle too, and it’s looking to hunt anything with the capability to defend itself…and that means Team Murica.

Paramount Pictures released Young Sherlock Holmes to theaters on December 4, 1985. Barry Levinson directed the film starring Nicholas Rowe, Alan Cox, and Sophie Ward.

‘Young Sherlock Holmes’ Movie Summary

Welcome to jolly-ol’ Victorian-era London, England in the dead of winter. A dark and continually-jingling baddy, wearing a very suspicious dark cloak and hood, using a one-of-a-kind Egyptian blowgun, shoots an old gent. The two-inch poisonous dart magically disappears for the victim who immediately hallucinates in front of a bunch of people who offer no help to the poor lunatic who is obviously in distress. The victim goes home and continues to hallucinate himself into a very tragic and violent death.

Thus begins our tale of Young Sherlock Holmes with a vanity card proudly proclaiming, “The following story is original and is not specifically based on the exploits of Sherlock Holmes as described in the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.” That’s right. American producer Steven Spielberg, American director Barry Levinson, and American screenwriter Chris Columbus chose to completely ignore Sir Conan Doyle’s canon of 56 short stories and four novels, countless adaptations in print and movies, and instead created something brand-new and gave the characters the iconic names of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. That’s like taking Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn and having a well-intentioned Russian writing their exploits in his native tongue. It makes no sense. But I digress…

The story picks up with an elderly Dr. Watson merrily narrating as high-school-aged Watson arrives at boarding school and immediately meets the violin-struggling Young Sherlock Holmes. Within seconds we find out: Holmes has not mastered the violin in three days, he has a nasty habit of meeting people and promptly offending them by telling the person all about themselves by the tiniest details, and the pudgy Watson enjoys custard tarts. It is a rousing beginning.

Basically, Holmes lusts after the only non-kidnapped teenage woman in the entirety of London. She is also the niece of the crackpot on campus, Professor Waxflatter. Young Sherlock learns all is powers of deduction from the crazy… I mean lovably eccentric professor, who tries to fly a physics-defying airplane not once but twice off the roof and crashes horribly without a single bruise. Holmes fences with the impossibly dashing arts teacher, Professor Rathe, and he proves to be an equal with the sword.

The school bully challenges Holmes to find a fencing trophy, and he uses the most ridiculously planted clues to locate it at the very last second. The niece and her dog are out for a walk and happen to be the only people hearing the bell-jingling baddy and give chase around the all-boys’ school courtyard. All the main characters of the movie are employees or related somehow to the boarding school and hang out together in scene after scene because, you know, nobody else really matters in the story.

MGM/UA Entertainment Company released Rocky III on May 28, 1982. Sylvester Stallone directed the film which starred Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, and Mr. T .

Rocky III Movie Summary

Rocky III picks up, literally, exactly where Rocky II left off.  When I say literally, I mean it as the famous final seconds of the epic rematch between Apollo Creed and Balboa are shown.  Following this bout against Apollo Creed, Rocky Balboa becomes the heavyweight champion of the world. The guitar riff starts and Rocky III introduces us to what will soon become a Rocky staple – the music video montage.

The montage, played to Survivor’s classic “Eye of the Tiger”, show s the only thing Rocky films know: juxtaposition.  Only this time the roles are reversed.  We see Rocky living in the lap of luxury, hand- picked opponents resulting in easy knockouts, commercials, endorsements, and even a guest appearance on The Muppet Show.

Meanwhile, Clubber Lang (a name as subtle and clever as Bludgeoner Smith), played by B.A. Barracus, or Ricky Schroeder’s bodyguard for some of you, is working his way up through the ranks of professional boxing.  This dude is tough and, above all, mean which makes him the perfect bad guy and antagonist to the affable Balboa.  He has a Mohawk and a vicious right hook.  He is even allowed to manhandle referees and punch his opponent while they are down.

De Laurentiis Entertainment Group released From the Hip on February 6, 1987. Bob Clark directed the film which starred Judd Nelson, Elizabeth Perkins, and John Hurt.

‘From the Hip’ Movie Summary

Judd Nelson plays Robin “Stormy” Weathers, the cinematic cliché of a fresh out of law school lawyer. He’s smarter than every other lawyer and judge around him. Legal research and writing at his six-figure salary firm bores him to death. So, he tries to elevate his status at the office as a take-no-prisoners type of attorney. This allows him to trick his way into a civil assault trial.

Stormy hides a trial date from one of his bosses; something they could fire and disbar him for. This allows him to get into the courtroom, where does many things that they could fire and disbar him for. Stormy’s “guilty as shit” client in the civil assault wants a three-day trial. This will increase the legal expenses of the opposing party. So, Stormy obliges him.

He first convinces the court to have an evidentiary hearing on the admissibility of the word “asshole”. (Anyone who practices in the legal field is well versed in that term of art.) Next, he conspires with opposing counsel to put on a “good” show in the trial to further both of their reputations and careers. Ultimately, Stormy wins the civil case against the expectations of all his superiors.

Dino De Laurentiis Company released Conan the Destroyer on June 29, 1984. Richard Fleischer directed the film which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, Grace Jones, and Olivia d’Abo.

‘Conan the Destroyer’ Movie Summary

The story begins when the evil queen of Shadizar confronts Conan and his fellow traveling thief, Malak. After Conan slaughters about a dozen of the queen’s guards and gives a horse a Mongo-of-Blazing-Saddles punch, the queen tells Conan that she has a quest for him: Conan must find and return to the queen the horn that will resurrect the god Dagoth. After brief haggling, Conan agrees to complete the quest in exchange for the queen’s promise to bring back to life Conana’s lost love, Valeria.

Conan only needs to escort the queen’s virgin niece, Jehnna, to the magic gem and the horn of Dagoth. To ensure that her niece remains a virgin, the queen entrusts Wilt the Stilt Chamberlain, the man who bedded 20,000 women, to accompany Jehnna, Conan, and Malak. This the first of many poor choices the queen makes. Unbeknownst to Conan, once he obtains the magic gem, Chamberlain must murder him.

Conan’s quest is difficult. A powerful wizard guards the magic hidden within a fortified castle. Conan and his band of seekers happen upon a group of cannibals that have somehow managed to capture Conan’s favorite wizard, Akiro. Conan rescues Akiro, and Akiro agrees to help Conan with his quest; although, if Akiro’s spells are no match for primitive savages, how much help will he be to Conan?

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer released Quigley Down Under on October 19, 1990. Simon Wincer directed the film which starred Tom Selleck, Laura San Giacomo, and Alan Rickman. ‘Quigley Down Under’ Movie Summary An Australian cattle super baron has advertised internationally for the greatest long-range marksman in the world to hunt dingoes off his ranch, which is the size of half of Down Under. He gets a unique response in a newspaper clipping having six holes shot through from 900 yards away by a Wyoming cowboy, who looks a lot like a sexy Magnum P.I. exchanging his Hawaiian shirts for authentic cowboy garb. Matthew Quigley arrives in Fremantle, Australia, with his saddle and his experimental Sharps rifle dressed as a “lever-action, breech-loader. Usual barrel length’s thirty inches. This one has an extra four. It’s converted to use a special forty-five caliber, hundred-and-ten-grain metal cartridge, with a five-hundred-forty grain paper patch bullet. It’s fitted with double-set triggers, and a Vernier sight, marked up to twelve-hundred yards. This one shoots a mite further.” Just off the boat, Matthew and his Sharps are immediately met by the cattle baron’s men, who unknowingly pick a fight with Quigley and his Sharps when they try throwing an American prostitute named Crazy Cora into the back of their wagon.

Touchstone Pictures released Pretty Woman to theaters on March 23, 1990. Garry Marshall directed the film starring Richard Gere, Julia Roberts, and Jason Alexander. Pretty Woman Movie Summary When you get caught between the Moon and Studio City, the best thing you can do is buy your love. Pretty Woman, released in 1990, is the timeless tale of boy meets whore, but this strumpet for your trumpet isn’t just any hooker–she’s a Disney doxy, and like all the animated adulteresses that came before her: Cinderella, Snow White, Aerial, and that bitch, Lady; there is a strong streak of wholesome goodness in her that will inspire your young children for years to come. Our vivacious vixen, played by Julia Roberts, is your typical 80s prostitute (ala Jamie Lee Curtis in Trading Places, Dolly Parton in Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, or even Patty Mullen in Frankenhooker). She has a mouth like a vice but a heart of gold. Roberts plays Vivian Ward, a traditional girl-next-door who decides to move to Los Angeles with a boyfriend that treats her like shit in the hopes of finding fame and fortune. When things don’t work out for the Southern Belle du Jour, she does what any red-blooded American girl does, she refuses to return home and straps on the thigh highs and turns to hooking to make ends meet. Enter the brave knight, to swoop in and save our fare maiden. Edward Lewis, played by a true Officer and A Gentlemen, Richard Gere, is in Beverly Hills to acquire James Morse’s shipping company. Eddie makes his money by buying companies in trouble, breaking up it up into valuable little pieces, and selling them off for a billion dollar profit. You see, Eddie has Daddy issues, and one of the first companies that he dismantled and sold was his father’s, whom he had blamed for leaving his mother. Since that time, he has grown to love the Power acquisitions bring him and shows No Mercy to those in his way, but everything is about to change. Eddie encounters Vivian on Hollywood Boulevard, the streetwalking equivalent to K-Mart. Eddie is having trouble driving his employee’s expensive car, and finding his hotel. Vivian offers to give him directions…for $5.00, then seeing his desperation, she ups it to a whopping $10. This girl is a wheeler and dealer for sure. It takes Eddie a few moments to figure out how to get it in Gere, but our sporting lady knows how to get things racing, and off they go. Eddie is so dazzled by Vivian’s horsepower that he purchases her services for the night. Love is best when you can pay the woman to leave the next morning, but once again, this is fairytale fornication. Our girl has values; she’s wholesome, she flosses, doesn’t use a pimp, wears thigh high boots so as to not scape her knees, and comes complete with a Rainbow Brite selection of condoms. She will do anything, except kiss on the mouth. Which is good for Vivian because I don’t think she would want to taste the last guy Richard, I mean Eddie was with. After a Breathless night of hamster high jinx, Eddie decides to purchase Vivian’s services for the rest of the week for $3,000. She will be his literal beck and call girl, but before she can begin servicing Eddie, he has to turn this slattern slut into a pretty woman. Can anyone say 80s shopping montage? Here we go! Oh wait, this is Rodeo Drive and her Frederick’s of Hollywood ensemble isn’t going to get her any service until Eddie whips out his Knight-in-shining-armor credit card that he never leaves home without and uses it to save the day. Now Miss Family Values can return to get revenge on those bitches who wouldn’t...

Embassy Pictures released Escape from NY to theaters on July 10, 1981. John Carpenter directed the film starring Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef, and Ernest Borgnine. Escape from NY Movie Summary It’s 1988 and the national crime rate has spiked by 400% in the United States. The island of Manhattan has been revamped into a National Maximum Security Penitentiary. This prison is surrounded by a Donald Trump inspired 50-foot containment wall, a unified United States Police Force, and land mines meant to blow away anyone who tries to escape via the bridges connected the various New York bureaus. All prisoners who enter the penitentiary receive a life sentence and are never allowed to come out alive. Flash forward to 1997, where the National Liberation Front of America has taken control of Airforce One and plans to take the President of the United States (POTUS) hostage. The POTUS, who eerily resembles Ernst Stavro Blofeld, without the pussy cat, successfully escapes from Airforce One when he is shit out of the aircraft in a giant red egg. Unfortunately, this giant red egg cracks open inside of the previously mentioned Manhattan National Security Penitentiary. There, the POTUS is captured by the penitentiary’s kingpin, “The Duke New York.” (Is it me or does The Duke sound just like “Chef” from South Park? I’m sure it’s just me!) The New York Police Commissioner, a former spaghetti western assassin, decides to send a recently arrested prisoner into Manhattan to rescue the POTUS. This prisoner is none other than former high school quarterback and Elvis impersonator, “Snake” Plissken. Snake was a Special Forces operative, who earned two Purple Hearts and numerous metals during World War III. He must glide his way into the prison and save the POTUS within 23 hours, or two microcapsules will explode in his neck, killing him. If successful, Snake will be granted a full pardon for his crimes and…allowed to live. sddssd (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Please let us know what you think of the film in the comments section, and rate this movie from one to five stars below as well.

TriStar Pictures released Glory on December 14, 1989. Edward Zwick directed the film which starred Matthew Broderick, Denzel Washington, and Cary Elwes. Glory Movie Summary Glory–based on the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry: the first unit of the U.S. Army made up entirely of black soldiers–takes place during the Civil War.  This story of brave black soldiers, is told through the eyes of a white man.  In 1989, there was but one white actor who possessed the qualities necessary to play emissary and spokesman for all African-Americans, only one man who had the gravitas one would expect of Surrogate Negro.  That actor was Matthew Broderick, of Project X and War Games fame. Matthew Broderick plays Robert Gould Shaw, one of the only historical figures in this movie based on history.  Shaw was born in 1837 in Boston to a family of great wealth and social and political prominence.  Shaw’s parents were abolitionists, and Shaw took up the family cause by dropping out of Harvard, and taking a commission as an infantry officer shortly after the Civil War began. Glory begins with Shaw, now a captain, leading an infantry unit at the Battle of Antietam, which would become the bloodiest single day in our nation’s history, with about 23,000 casualties.  Shaw suffers a minor flesh wound to his neck, but a greater wound to his psyche.  He spends the rest of the movie wrestling with PTSD, or in playground terminology: whether or not to puss out.  After the horrors he witnessed in the battle field and army hospital, Shaw now spills punch onto his dress blues any time a servant closes a shutter.

Warner Bros. released Lethal Weapon to theaters on March 6, 1987. Richard Donner directed the film which starred Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, and Gary Busey. Lethal Weapon Movie Summary Lethal Weapon begins as I feel every film should begin, with a hot, blonde woman, high on drugs and low on clothing. Unfortunately, this topless woman has issues, much as most of the women that I have dated, and throws herself off a building, killing herself and breaking the heart of her plastic surgeon. It’s ok though, because like most whores, she was dead on the inside already. Next, we meet Detective Roger Murtaugh. Apparently black does crack, since they went younger for the role. Murtaugh is celebrating his birthday, and counting his days until his retirement. His captain gives him the present of a new partner, Detective Martin Riggs. Riggs has a death wish because his wife recently died. He spends his evenings watching Looney Tunes, and cleaning the barrel of his gun out with his tongue. Nobody wants to work with Riggs anymore, partly because his breath smells like gun powder, but mostly because of the crazy, sad-sack routine. The Captain decides to assign him to black guy in homicide. Talk about failing upward. Riggs and Murtaugh begin looking into the death of the hot blonde at the beginning of the film. The duo discovers someone laced her drugs with drain cleaner. At that spells murder in Murtaugh’s book. And to further tie all plot points together, the blond is also the daughter of Murtaugh’s old friend from Vietnam, Michael Hunsaker. Riggs and Murtaugh begin looking into Amanda Hunsaker’s background, and find out she is the porn industry. Now, this interests the boys. They go and talk to Amanda’s sugar daddy, and Riggs fills him full of lead and drops him into the pool. That is the running theme throughout the film, Riggs shoots everyone but himself.

Universal Pictures released Slap Shot to theaters on February 25, 1977. George Roy Hill directed the film starring Paul Newman, Michael Ontkean, and Strother Martin. Slap Shot Movie Summary Reggie Dunlop is an over-the-hill player/coach for the failing Charlestown Chiefs. The hockey team hasn’t had a winning season in years, and loses money hand over fist. In what will be their final season before the club folds, Dunlop unleashes the Hanson Brothers, a trio of childlike goons, on the league. He hopes the cheap wins and increased publicity will force the unknown owner of the team to sell the Chiefs to a Florida retirement community because old people love blood and violence on ice. After a successful season, the owner folds the team anyway, and uses the loss as a tax write off, but Reggie is still a winner. His team wins the Federal League championship (due to forfeit). He gets a new job coaching in a new town (to win back his ex-wife), and Charlestown gives him one final street parade beneath the magical marquee of a XXX double feature; so he has that going for him, which is nice. No word on if the Hanson Brothers banged things into the boards at that theater, but I doubt they went there for a tight storyline and mind-blowing cinematography.

Universal Pictures released Parenthood to theaters on August 2, 1989. Ron Howard directed the film starring Steve Martin, Mary Steenburgen, Dianne Wiest. Parenthood Movie Summary In the year of Batman’s new beginning, Marty McFly’s middle, and Indiana Jones’ ending-that-should-have-been comes another superhero movie. One filled to the brim with nostalgic fathers falling off horses in a single bound out of the saddle; single mothers with glow-in-the-dark, battery-operated items found in her dresser drawer; and, Ted Theodore Logan blowing up his time-machine to win the heart of his impregnated teenage bride. That’s right… We are talking “Parenthood”. That Ron Howard-directed masterpiece filled with SCTV and SNL comedians who aren’t as funny as they are thought-provoking and tiny child actors stealing scenes from some of the best actors of the 80s and 90s. We are introduced to the entire dysfunctional shitty-father Jason Robards’-led family: First, we have eldest son, Gil, played by Steve Martin being, well, Steve Martin. A loving, excellent father who wants to be everything to his wife and children that his own, bulldozer of a shitty father wasn’t – a stand-up comedian with a heart. With beloved wife, Mary Steenburgen, caring for their three not-so-perfect children in a home and lifestyle straight out of Hollywood casting of the Lifestyles of the Rich and Father of the Bride, we are sure to see family heartache done to humorous familial effect.

Fortunately for young Robert, his tutor is a gorgeous, 29 year old blonde woman named Terry Green (Caren Kaye). Terry who recently broke up with her cheating boyfriend, conveniently, needs a job and somewhere to live. Also, should Bobby successfully pass his exam, tutor Terry will earn a handsome $10,000 bonus. Since Bobby is your typical horny teenager, when he isn’t studying his French lessons, he spends evenings hanging out with his friend Jack (Crispin Glover) and Jack’s older brother, Billy (Clark Brandon). Billy, an experienced ladies’ man, takes the recent graduates around Los Angeles to diners, brothels, and mud wrestling matches in an attempt to help them lose their virginities.

Buena Vista Pictures released Who Framed Roger Rabbit? on June 22, 1988. Robert Zemeckis directed the film which starred Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, and Joanna Cassidy. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Movie Summary It’s 1947 Hollywood and Eddie Valiant, a down-on-his-luck detective, is hired to find proof that Marvin Acme, gag factory mogul and owner of Toontown, is playing hanky-panky with femme fatale Jessica Rabbit, wife of Maroon Cartoon superstar, Roger Rabbit. When Acme is found murdered, all fingers point to Roger, who begs the Toon-hating Valiant to find the real evildoer… ROGER: You’re just reading the DVD cover and you missed a whole BUNCH of stuff. BOBBY: That’s the basic plot of the movie, Roger. ROGER: There’s that part about me and Baby Herman. There’s the part about me and Marvin Acme, God rest his soul. You can’t forget about Daffy and Donald playing musical pianos, for goodness sake! And what about Jessica! Oooh, Jessica… BOBBY: Yeah, but that’s not the main point of the story. ROGER: Jessica is innocent. Innocent, I tell ya! She would never play hanky-panky with anyone but me… JESSICA: …and don’t forget pattycake. BOBBY: Oh, no… ROGER: Pattycake. PATTYCAKE???…… AHHHHH!!! BOBBY: Now you’ve done it, Jessica. JESSICA: I’m not bad. I’m just drawn that way. BOBBY: Roger, calm down. What else did I miss in the intro? ROGER: …(heavy breathing, calming) Well, jeez. You missed all of Eddie’s backstory about the wicked toon that iced his brother. How poor Eddie was petrified by that evil Judge Doom and his weasels. Ohhhh, let me at ‘em… they make me soooo mad… BOBBY: People need to watch to see all the Toon stars too… ROGER: I can give you stars. Look! CLUNK! Look! CLUNK! Loooook! CLUNK! CLUNK! CLUNK!… Is there nothing that can permeate your impervious puss? Hey, Bobby… BLBLBLBLBLBLBBBBBBBB… BOBBY: Do you think we should discuss the rest of the movie here with the Lunchtime Movie Review crew? ROGER: Only if you have to. I heard those guys and gals were loonier than the looniest characters in Toontown! JESSICA: …and sexier too. Especially that Chris Haley. Hubba-hubba. BOBBY: And THAT is “Who Framed Roger Rabbit.” PORKY PIG: Th-th-th-that’s all, folks!

Renaissance Pictures released The Evil Dead on April 15, 1981. Sam Raimi directed the film which starred Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, and Richard DeManincor. The Evil Dead (1981) Movie Summary They are young,  good looking, and ready for a weekend of good old fashioned underage boozing and unprotected teenage sex in an abandoned cabin in the woods. No, not THAT cabin in the woods. This was long before Chris Hemsworth’s cabin. This was well before SAW. Even before that horrible Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake. Freddy Krueger hadn’t even sharpened his nails before this movie came out. We’re talking about the granddaddy of all gore-fests! Driving an old beater of a car that barely survives the drive up the highway, but ends up surviving two additional sequels and a trip to the 14th century, these five fun-loving teens race through Deliverance to their five-star resort destination in rural Tennessee. Driving across the bridge Indiana Jones chopped in half in Temple of Doom, they have arrived JUST as the sun is setting. Suspecting the place may have a sinister past, the kids unpack the booze and nightgowns and get straight to partying! They find a creepy trap door in the middle of the living room with a chain on it. Instead of locking the chain permanently, and getting the hell outta Dodge, they let the biggest male prankster take the only flashlight and disappear down into the darkness. Of course, Ash “the chin” Campbell has to go down by himself to find the missing lad.

20th Century Fox released The Fly on August 15, 1986. David Cronenberg directed the film which starred Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, and John Getz. The Fly Movie Summary Back in the 80s, AIDS was everywhere, but homosexuality was in the closet. Hollywood took a more subtle approach to broaching the topic of the disease. Instead of a sappy “Philadelphia” tale, with the affable Tom Hanks, studios execs green lit the horror film, The Fly. Its grotesque nature was a direct reflection of society’s vision of the virus on a human. Our movie begins with a socially awkward, but brilliant scientist named Seth Brundle, played by Jeff Goldblum, hitting on journalist Veronica Quaife, Geena Davis, at a meet and greet for Brundle’s company Bartok Science Industries. As with any eccentric genius, Brundle offers to give Veronica a late night tour of his lab – which comes complete with a big bed and a stripper pole. There he reveals his invention–three telepods–that will forever change the way humanity travels, but they’re not ready just yet. They have this nasty knack for turning baboons into piles of mush. Brundle convinces Veronica to document his progress. She agrees on the condition they have sex three times a day. After their first trip to Pound Town, Brundle is inspired. He reprograms the telepods to transport living tissue. It’s a success!

New World Pictures released Saturday the 14th to theaters on October 30, 1981. Howard R. Cohen directed the film starring Richard Benjamin, Paula Prentiss, and Jeffrey Tambor. Saturday the 14th Movie Summary In 1981, one of the most vile, disgusting, films ever made was brought to the big screen. This film warned us early on that “It gets bad on Friday the 13th, but it gets worse on Saturday the 14th.” Believe me; it doesn’t get much worse than Howard R. Cohen’s horror/comedy Saturday the 14th. John and Mary portrayed here by real life spouses Richard (please don’t call me “Big Dick”) Benjamin and Paula Prentiss, are a happily married couple who inherit a cursed house in Eerie, PA. John and Mary decide to move into this “fixer upper” with their two children, Debbie and Billy, despite its known curse. SIDE BAR: (Debbie is portrayed by LTMR favorite, Kari Michaelsen. Kari is the text book definition of “80’s Hot.” Her bathtub scene in this film, although frustrating, is quite memorable.) Shortly after they move in, Billy finds and leafs through the ancient Book of Evil. Just by looking at the books pictures, grotesque monsters, which reminded of rejects from the Mos Eisley Cantina scene in Star Wars, magically escape into the real world and try to kill off everyone in sight.

Movie Summary In Zapped, sometimes referred to as Charles in Charge: The High School Years, nerdy Barney Springboro obtains a superpower ala Spiderman when a lab accident goes awry. He does not use his new telekinetic powers for good. In typical 80s style, he takes revenge on his bullies, cheats to win at sports, and gets the ladies naked, which is nice. His BFF, Peyton Nichols eggs Barney along the whole time. Eventually, the main character’s love interest, in this case Bernadette, finds out about his powers. These powers put their relationship at risk, but this is an 80s movie, so Barney will get the girl. The film ends at the senior prom where Barney strips the bitches out of their gowns for shits and giggles, but a fire hose him on the head, and knocks him out. When Barney wakes, his powers are gone. He leaves with Bernadette and he levitates them into the night sky…so really, Barney lost nothing. read the full summary (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Disclaimer This podcast is intended for entertainment and information purposes only.

Paramount Pictures released Airplane! on July 2, 1980. Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker directed the spoof. It starred Robert Hays, Julie Hagerty, and Leslie Nielsen. Airplane! Movie Summary War hero, Ted Stryker has a checkered battle record. He made the decision to fly too low and men died. He lost his confidence, and he now he won’t fly again. But he lost more than his wings that fateful day in the war. The lingering effects of his mistake drove his girl away too. Now she’s a stewardess. That’s right, stewardess–not flight attendant–because this movie came out in 1980. In those days, you could smoke on a plane, and stewardesses still flew the friendly skies. Elaine is an absent minded stewardess who dances to disco, and whines when she speaks. She can’t stand Ted, and Ted can’t live without her. So, when she boards an LA to Chicago flight, Ted buys a ticket; hoping he can convince Elaine to give him one last chance. Soon after take-off, people start getting sick from some bad fish. I’m not talking about wussy little stomach cramps. I’m talking vomiting, nausea, and unconsciousness. Unfortunately for the passengers, the pilot, Clarence “Over” Oveur, co-pilot, Roger “Roger” Murdock, and navigator, “What’s your Vector” Victor Basta all ate the fish; leaving Otto, blow-up doll co-pilot, at the helm.

Thorn EMI released Highlander to theaters on March 7, 1986. Russell Mulcahy directed the film starring Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, Clancy Brown. Highlander Movie Summary The year is 1986, and the immortal Connor MacLeod fights another immortal, Iman Fasil in New York City. MacLeod slices his head off…the only way you can kill an immortal, so I guess they aren’t as immortal as advertised…especially since there can only be one. For some reason, cops show up, and MacLeod tries to flee. Also for some reason though, the cops are in full force, so the catch and arrest MacLeod…and you all thought that when you get caught between the moon and New York city the best that you can do is fall in love! We flash back to the 16th century where MacLeod is a Scottish Highlander. He and his clansmen will soon go to war, but MacLeod will be okay if you’re worried. We return to 1986 for some stereotypical cop douchebaggery before they release MacLeod, but Detective Brenda Wyatt, a metallurgy expert, recognizes Fasil’s sword as an extremely rare Toledo Salamanca broadsword. This peaks her interest. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Disclaimer This podcast is for entertainment and information purposes only.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) released Clash of the Titans on June 12, 1981. Desmond Davis directed the film which starred Laurence Olivier, Harry Hamlin, and Claire Bloom. Clash of the Titans Movie Summary Acrisius, King of Argos, is pissed.  The oracle of Apollo told Acrisius that she had some good news and some bad news.  The good news was that Acrisius’s beautiful daughter Danae would soon give birth to a son.  The bad news was that this son would one day kill Acrisius.  So Acrisius, whose name loosely translates as Cockblock, locks his beautiful daughter in the top of a bronze tower so she would never come into contact with a man. What King Cockblock failed to consider was that a bronze tower was no match for the horny God of the sky, Zeus.  One day Zeus flies to the bronze tower and descends upon the fair maiden Danae. He adorns her with a golden shower and knocks her up.  Danae gives birth to Perseus, the son of Zeus; the child destined to murder his grandfather.  Clash of the Titans begins with Acrisius condemning his daughter and grandson to certain death by locking them in a chest and throwing them out to sea. When Zeus discovers Acrisius’s murderous deed, he is livid and demands swift justice.  Zeus orders his brother Poseidon, god of the sea, to save Danae and Perseus, and to punish Acrisius by unleashing a sea monster called the kraken.  The kraken wipes out Acrisius and all the inhabitants of Argos.  Meanwhile, the chest carrying Danae and Perseus lands safely ashore on the Aegean island of Seraphos.  Seraphos loosely translates as Isle of Naked MILFS.  Under Zeus’s watchful eye, Perseus grows up to be Harry Hamlin.

The government agrees this is a good idea, and grants NORAD’s supercomputer, WOPR, full nuclear control. Meanwhile, out in Seattle, high school student, David Lightman, is a bludgeoning hacker able to illegally change his and his little friend, Jennifer Mack’s, grades on his school’s mainframe.

The Godfather: Part III Movie Summary The year is 1979. Disco is king, and mafia boss, Michael Corleone, is queen. The Don has turned over a new leaf at the tender age of 60, sold off the casinos, and handed over the “family business” to a younger mobster, Joey Zasa. Corleone tries to go legit as a honest businessman—much like Donald Trump did in 2016, but with slightly less Oompa-Lompa make-up. However, instead of a run for role of Commander-In-Chief, the Roman Catholic Church has names Michael a Commander of the Order of Saint Sebastian. Michael still carries tremendous guilt over ordering the death of his own brother, Fredo. Additionally, Michael’s second wife, Kay, who’s perfect shit shines gold, has divorced him. His adult children, Anthony and Mary rarely see him.

Sofia Coppola, the Don of the Retards, plays Mary who simply wants to have sex with her first cousin, Vincent Mancini, and then piss off as many Godfather fanboys as humanly possible.

United Artists released Moonraker on June 29, 1979. Lewis Gilbert directed the film which starred Roger Moore, Lois Chiles, and Michael Lonsdale. Moonraker Movie Summary Moonraker, AKA “Bond In Space”, is the eleventh James Bond film. It starts with the in-flight theft of the Moonraker space shuttle from the top of a passenger jet.  If an airliner can fucking carry a space shuttle with no problem, then why the fuck do they need to charge $35 for our checked luggage?  Keeping with the flight theme, we next see our grandfather, I mean James Bond, in a luxury jet.  A fight ensues and Bond and Jaws, the only likable character from Happy Gilmore, fall out of the plane.  They battle over the only parachute.  Bond wins the parachute by throwing his Metamucil at Jaws thus causing Jaws to land on top of a circus tent. Bond investigates Drax, the space shuttle manufacturer, at his secret French chateau in California (just off I-10 and highway 60, near Beaumont).  The two meet, and have idle talk over afternoon tea.  After tea, Drax tells his henchmen to kill Bond.  Tea went poorly.  The henchmen attempt to kill Bond via a g-force simulator and in a hunting incident rather than just outright kill the not-so-secret agent and blame it on some fall-guy.  Bond also meets Doctor Holly Goodhead.  That’s not a joke, that’s the character’s actual name.  Yeah, we know, they’re not even trying anymore.  But it’s not all fun and games for Bond, since he conducts some actual spying by photographing some of Drax’s secret plans.

Warner Bros. Pictures released Under the Rainbow on July 31, 1981. Steve Rash directed the fantasy film which starred Chevy Chase, Carrie Fisher, and Eve Arden. Under the Rainbow Movie Summary Out in Kansas in 1938, a group of tramps, vagrants, and freeloaders suck up government resources quicker than you can say social welfare. One of those unemployed bums looking for a free ride is Rollo Sweet. He’s so poor he can’t even afford to stand over four feet six inches. During a radio address from the President of the United States, Rollo fakes an injury where he slips off the roof of a barn, and bumps his head. Meanwhile, the misunderstood Führer of Germany instructs his shortest agent, Otto Kriegling, where to find a pearl in a river. To do so, he must take a special map all the way to Hollywood, California and give it to a Japanese Agent in a white suit. Sounds simple enough. Out in California, Annie Clark’s boss, Louie, orders her to look after 150 actors who will play the Munchkins in The Wizard of Oz. His dimwitted nephew, Homer, will assist in keeping these little shit heads under control.
