Hell yeah

Barry Bostwick rocks spandex in Megaforce. Maybe check his cock size in that. Also a perfect Action Boyz movie.
Bring me the Head of Warren Oates
Stanger's Optimus Prime is an underrated character on the show
Joe Gunch
Walhburg is one of those 'always hustling' celebs like Dwayne Johnson where you're supposed to be impressed by how active they are, but to me it just makes them seem non-human. I imagine that - in their 30 minutes of free time each day - they just sit on a chair in the middle of an empty room and look at the wall.
Joe Gunch
If I had to go to the gym every time I had to take a messy shit, I would probably be just as jacked as this guy
Max Hardenbrook
Finally getting to this weeks episode (male nurse in kansas city here, kinda swamped with covid dumbasses). Fun fact- the actor playing Crom and bruce boxlietner would later appear together in Babylon 5. Peter jurasik played Lando.
Joe
You freaks are out of your minds. This movie rules.

Trylon Minneapolis has a 35mm print of Huston’s “Key Largo” running this weekend that I’m going to dip balls in. Looking forward to reading FCB afterwards.
close friend of mine worked on wahlburgers for it's entire run. you'll be pleased to know that the "nobody say marky mark" policy is still in full effect. dude sounds like a total cunt.

Kildare’s

Paddy Whacks?
Jesse Crap
There are a couple shorts about George Stevens directed by his son that have more of his war footage. They were on criterion. Also, most of the WWII docs they shot are on Netflix because they wanted to push their Five Came Back series. Ford’s Battle of Midway is a masterpiece.
RutgerHauerPowerHour
Of course. He also had a head that would put Brandon Lee’s dome to shame.
Morgan
So you said It? Please tell me you said it.

I bartended at a shitty Philly South Street Irish pub in 2007. Mark Wahlberg co hosted a fundraiser at said bar. Prior to the event, his publicist and our GM lined us up gestapo style and sternly said, “anybody in here say Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch at all, you will be fired on the spot!” That was my last shift working there.
Bob Brown
Glad you’re doing all right player.

It makes gross bars even weirder

I thought this movie really benefitted from remaster. There’s enough time passed from the era of effects now that they seem stylistic rather than out of date. I enjoyed the rewatch for the look, despite major pacing issues

I'd explain what a VPN tunnel is but I know the boyz don't really care.
Conor Hunter
Guessing that the douche at the gym who was audibly shitting is so scared to shit around his model girlfriend that he only shits at the gym.
Denis McGuire
How did Alan Bradley/Tron being Kuffs’ brother not come up?
Dave McM
By the sounds of it Kool Aid Man leads a double life as James Hetfield of Metallica. YEAH!!! 🤘🏻

I was was 13, and struggling (not doing homework) with school. So my dad, freshly out of his second marriage, took me to a tapas restaurant to get a tarot reading. Nothing was really said that rocked my world, just stuff that could be applied to any 13 year old overweight kid. But looking back, I’m 90% sure he was fucking the tarot reader and that it had a hand in his divorce
Jon Smith
Just reloaded the page to say exactly this
Tim from New Hampshire
As a kid the music didn’t resonate with me but now I’m really into it
Felipe Sobreiro
A Jeff Bridges movie I’d love you to cover is Thunderbolt and Lightfoot
Bob Brown
Brought my daughter to LA for a fun filled family vacation two weeks ago and picked up a Bort keychain at the Universal Studios Kwik-E-Mart. Sometimes overpriced merch is just worth it. Don’t skip the Lard Lad donuts either.
Michael Pemulis
Thank you for your service.
Dean Smiros
When I was 13, I was told by a palm reader in Key West that I would have problems with my left leg. At 23 I got diagnosed with bone cancer in my left femur. All good now but I have a 16 inch scar and 5 lbs of titanium in my left leg

Tron was one of the first few movies I remember watching thinking there’s a good idea in here somewhere but it’s lost in the pacing. Love the aesthetic concepts though. Also, as a programmer/developer, the code you write is a reflection of your personality and it does carry a bit of your sense of self with it.

Not a sex doll story exactly but when I was in the Navy we were underway for several months and one of the ships in out battle group had an STD outbreak because a bunch of people were sharing a pocket pussy.
Scott Tammel
"I like my programs that aren't caught..." WE MISS YOU DONALD!
bloodflart
my kid is getting big into old WWE videos I'm gonna take her to one next year
Erik Kang
I'm surprised the boyz missed the two Sex Programs that Flynn walks by and checks out: http://tron.popapostle.com/images/episodes/Tron/sex-programs.JPG

Bryce
There was a Roddy Piper match from wrestle mania 12 that ended with piper speeding off in a white bronco and wwf used footage of the OJ chase. So in a way Sam Hell did drive the bronco
Erik Kang
We would call Megatouch “Titty Touch” since the only game worth playing was the erotic photo hunt.
Mike Cooper
I’m scared of change!

1st watched Tron in the mid 90s peaking on LSD on a projector screen. its really the only way to enjoy the movie
Seth Buchanan
never kind tired of Wolfie bits, though The Monster Squad episode might be the peak of the joke
Alan
Stone is the perfect age to start South Park, especially the early ones that are full of the dumbest jokes. Gotta keep an eye on his YouTube algorithm though. It’s going to start recommending Ben Shapiro videos.
Maudline Wellbright
The Boyz have the enlightened perspective on Tron: Legacy. Assessments of "good" and "bad" are meaningless to Legacy, just extremely adequate. It's all bio-digital jazz, man.
Sam Riebesehl (Reeb-Uh-Shell)
Hi, action boyz? I’ve got some questions about my membership. My bank suddenly had six different withdrawals from six different variations of action boyz gym and/or racquet club, varying from $399 to $599. Just wondering if you could clear up exactly what I’m signed up for
Salmon
I didn't realize how much I missed Trump showing up until today
Alex Elani
Love how Stanger pronounces “hillacopter”
Shawn W Savage
What did everyone think of Wendy Carlos’ score? I’ve always kind of dug it.
The Coin Guy
Please do another charity episode, and love it when the fans are made fun of. T
Erik Kang
I love this movie and I love the children in here complaining about it.
HappyBirthdayPaulie
I saw this movie once in the early 2000s after knowing it as a cultural reference forever, and I hated it. But I barely remembered it, so I rewatched it on Disney+ last week and I like it. It's slow, it's dumb, but I dig it now. And it seems like I'm the only one.
Dave McM
Literally. There’s him being the cool guy in the arcade then the two games. I don’t even remember how he gets in or out.
Dark Angel Of The Year
It's insane how short the segment with Bridges competing in the games is, and yet that's all anyone remembers from it.
Hammerthrust Von Sexron
Movie feels longer than the ep
bloodflart
Thought it sounded good today
bloodflart
Janelle is kind of a character in this pod
Conor Beales
Chef Kevin is assembling a mighty collection of podcasts! All hail the producer extraordinaire.
Mijo
I thought the intro was building towards a new patreon tier. Apparently you just have to add music and I'm ready to spend more money
Justin Robinson
My fond memories for this movie are solely based on playing the Tron arcade game every time I went to Showbiz Pizza.
First movie I just cannot get through
Quimberton Mullrooney
Really liked the intro
Slurp
I was into it for 20 minutes cause of the foam padded laser tag shoulders but man this shit drags on.
Nitram
Watching Tron right now and man...this shit is garbage. Haven't seen it since I was a child and I must have been a dumb little shit to like this 🙃

Thank you Mark, I don't know you but I I feel this is the correct answer, I recently became an action boi and started at the beginning so I'm listening as fast as I can. I'm only at young guns right now but I will catch up and figure out all the rules.
I think the official way of suggesting movies is to DM Gabrus, and then tweet at all his friends telling them to tell him to check his inbox
twocatskissing
I don't know the appropriate place to put it but I think Payback would be a great movie for them to do. And they can make fun of Mel some more
