It felt good to get back on there. And, oh, man. But my back was killing me. But since I've been back to work and doing a lot of walking, man, and a little bit of yoga, I need to do a full on.

I lost some of, I lost, yeah, I lost some of the weight that I put on from sitting there. Nice. So, because my back, dude, I was like, oh, man, my back was killing me. And I was, like, getting scared. So I just started moving around, doing more. And then when I went to the doctor for my physical, I remember the last time I was there when they were check, rechecking my ankle when I was starting to walk around. I looked at the scale. I knew I gained weight.

I just could feel it. But then when I went back, I got sick. sick. These damn kids brought something home. So I went to the doctor and I looked at the scale and I lost almost 10 pounds. I was like, good. So hopefully can start going back down. I need to really do some more walking and everything. But I'm not 100%, but I feel better than I did because it was, I was going nuts. And everyone that's been reaching out about East Society, we took a little

hiatus as well we gave you some stuff to listen to but yeah man it's been kind of hard to sit down and do i did a couple things on my own um i haven't put them out yet but yeah but uh we are finally back here for uh the action returns and how many times did you watch this movie uh this recent time think maybe four I think I did three and a half the last when I started at the fourth time I kind of just had it on and I was doing stuff

yeah let everyone know what we're doing we are here to do the 2014 action thriller the equalizer we bet on what you did for you got here I'm saying insurance I was a pip you know like gladys night in the pitch.

All right. Open the register right now. Give me that ring. Please. It's okay, Jenny. It comes a point where you have to help people. It's too late to start. Who can't help themselves.

Promise I would never go back to being that person. But today, I make an exception. Look out the East Coast of the Russian Mafia. They're going to come after you. Everything is scared to say, don't be afraid to say no. A man with his skill, I want to know who we really is. All right. Everybody settle now.

Let's go over to shady mania. Someone to empty that stadium. What do you see? When you look at me. What do you see when you look at me? This is the only thing I know. Let's go over to Google. Robert McCall, a man of mysterious origin who believes he has put the past behind him,

dedicates himself to creating a new quiet, yeah, a new quiet life. however when he meets Terry, a teenager who has been manhandled by violent Russian mobsters, he simply cannot walk away. With his set of formidable skills, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement and emerges as a avenging angel ready to take down anyone who brutalizes the helpless. They have Google's. It's a long one. Okay, IMDB.

A man who believes he has put his mysterious past behind him cannot stand idly by when he meets a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian gangsters. I like that one better. This stars Washington, Martin Kosoka, Chloe Grace Moretz, David Harbour, Bill Pullman, and Melissa Leo. This is directed by Antoine Foucaw. and written by Richard Wank Now before we get started on the movie Did you ever check out the show?

I never really checked out the show Which one? The original I watched it a little bit When it was airing Is it pretty much The same thing as what they're doing in the movies? Yeah, but not I mean, it was an older gentleman and he looked like did what he could.

He didn't get all Denzel and go for it. I mean, as much as they could show in the 80s. Was it in the 80s or was it in the 70s? I want to say it was in the 80s. But, um. Yeah, the 80s. I don't remember. I've watched it a few times, but I don't remember it that well to where it was.

It wasn't something that I watched every week. It was something if it was on, I'd leave it, have it on, and I don't know, be doing something else. But I gave Queen Latifah show a few episodes. It was all right, but. I've only seen, I think, the first episode of season one and just wasn't the same watching Queen Latifah as the equalizer after watching Denzel. yeah it was I mean I love the queen but is that show still on

I think so I don't know with the recent what was it the writers and actor strike I don't know what's coming out when's it coming out what's stop filming what started filming

yeah I mean it's everything's all over the place everything is as out of order movies that should have been out or not coming out until next year or 10 years from now and I'm like

and some of the movies we got that we were waiting on have not been good I don't know if you saw Madam Webb but it's yeah I talked about it I think not on the recent episode

of the horror returns but the episode before It's probably one of the worst comic book superhero movies I've ever seen. It's the most pointless movie I've ever seen, and everybody was there clearly just getting a paycheck. It did introduce me to that Sweeney chick, which I want to see that new movie. I haven't seen it yet. Immaculate?

Yeah. It's good. That's what I'm hearing, so I thought she was cute, but... Even if you don't like the movie? you'll be you'll be impressed with her performance i mean she was good she was uh i watched her on um saturday live when she was the host i thought she was cute of it yeah i mean i thought she was cute in the movie out of all of them all the gals that were in it but it wasn't will it make my best of not even but it will be on my comic book movie list because we're only getting so much

this year. I'm hoping that we find some graphic novel movies because the killer, if you guys have seen that one, the one with Magneto. Fast Bender. Yeah, that was pretty good.

Yeah, I didn't realize that that was a graphic novel. I looked it up and then it made my comic book movie list and everything, but it was good. Theo didn't know. It was a graphic novel. He was like, what? I said, yeah, so he, that was in his regular best of 2023 list. And then when I brought it up on the comic book episode, he went,

well, man, I got to do some rearranging because he brought the killer over to that list. But yeah, we both agreed that, was it across the Spider-verse or beyond the Spider-Verse? I don't know, whatever that last Spider-verse was. Did you see the new short film, the horror-based short film? the horror-based short film the one with Carl no

for the Spiderverse Sony put it out on their YouTube channel oh no I'm to check that out yeah I haven't watched it yet but it just came out I think

yesterday I think oh okay I'll have to check it out then but enough of spinning off and other things everyone it's not the horror returns

Stachian. Yeah. Yeah. The something returns. Well, we returned. So what did you think of the Equalizer? And did you catch this in the theater when it originally came out? No, I saw this when it hit one of the HBO Showtime, whatever it was.

That's when I saw it. No, no, no. You know what? I think I just bought it when it came out on Blu-ray. No, no, no, let me go back. Let me go back. I did not see it in its initial run. And I saw the second one first.

Then I went back and watched this one. Okay. Because I remember my buddy, go, let's go see Equalizer, too. I said, well, do I need to see the first one? He went, eh, I don't think so. So after I saw the second one, which I thought was pretty awesome, I just went and bought this one, and I watched it. I wasn't really impressed the first time I watched it because I liked the second one a little bit more.

But after watching it three and a half times, I like this one a little bit more. I wasn't a fan of the third one. It was... Old man, Robert. Yeah, he didn't. I mean, they didn't really show anything. And when they was in Killing Fools, they sped it up. I didn't I didn't like that

I was looking at Denzel's age he'll be 70 this year yeah so I mean I think he's done equalizing he's equalized enough because like yeah if you were I watched um the first time when we were first to record it

I watched all three of them in a row I watched this one then I watched the second one then I watched the third one once it hit um Netflix and I actually bought the steel book before I even watched it Now I have all three of them So I wasn't that big of a fan of the third one

But this one Watching it so many times I thought it was pretty awesome I liked what was going on I thought his character He just tried to keep Stay on the DL and just Work at

Wasn't Home Depot It was the place called Home It was like a knockoff. It just says a big box home improvement store. Yeah, I don't remember. Yeah, Home Depot, Lowe's one of those places. It looked like it was a Home Depot and they just changed the signs.

Yeah, I think instead of orange, the colors were yellow. But I thought it was good, man. I mean, I liked that he was just doing his thing. Um, we do find out later that he was some kind of, uh, was he CIA or was he like special forces? They never really said. And that, that's one thing I liked about his character. The way they, they made you feel about how capable and experience he was, you didn't really know, need to know exactly what he did. You just know that he was something like that in his past. because did he go see

um president bill Pullman's wife yeah did in this one or in the second one see the first one because did one of them die in the second or was that the third one

uh he sees her in this one he she dies in the second one okay and then you only well we almost spoil the third one there's connection for the third one to to them yeah okay yeah they kind of just we they bring them in but then they don't really go into what he does because he does go see them to get some information on on this one but did you see

this one in theater no i actually um wasn't really on my radar but uh years ago when i was listening to when they were the league of geeks sean was hyping this movie up and then I think I caught it I think I blind bought it the blue ray and that was the first time I watched it All right it says here

Robert McCall a former U.S. Marine and a DIA the Defense Intelligence Agency and DCS the defense Gladstein service

is that what that's gone? Okay well yeah that's what he did all right and this all took place in boston i don't even know what those things are i don't need is this something that they made up or is this something real the defense intelligence agency dia is an intelligence agency and a combat support agency of the united states department of defense specializing in defense and military intelligence i never heard this i don't know if it's made up. And the other one is

the DCS is an arm of the defense intelligence agency with conducts, cladsteing, espionage, intelligence gathering activities and classified operations around the world to provide insights and answers national level defense objectives

for senior I don't know something. It kind of cut off, but sounds like one of them agencies that showed up to Diddy's door. Do you think You think he did all that? When they do that kind of raid,

I watched someone, a lawyer break it down. He said when they do that kind of raid with that many people and that much money invested in, then something's not right. Yeah. And they did a simultaneous raid on,

from when I understand it's California of Florida and New York Holmes Once all this happened then this is when the conspiracy guys come out of the woodwork they're saying that

I did watch a documentary when they were kind of pointing their finger at Diddy for Biggie's murder but I didn't believe it but that they're saying that he might have

Biggie might have known this was going on this is that's why them conspiracy yeah I was like come on see we're

we're getting off track again but real quick I felt like he when he fucked up if he had to fuck up about something is when the ex-girlfriend did that $30 million

lawsuit and he settled out of court the next day immediately I think that kind of raised some suspicions I don't know I mean if he did it lock him up But

Because I'm hearing Sex trafficking Drug trafficking Guns People's cars getting blown up People getting beat up I guess when you're rich And you have that money

And I don't know I mean I would like to know How that money is But I wouldn't go nuts And do stupid stuff But anyway

Because then Robert McCorm call might come calling and equalize you. Yeah, this one, I mean, it was good. I liked it. I like how he was just, I mean, Denzel Academy Ward winner, Denzel Washington, just laid back. Didn't this guy do the training day as well? Antoine Fuqua. Yeah, yeah, he did. Yeah, he did a training day. I know he did the Magnificent Seven. says he did the replacement killers

oh he did that one that says with uh chow y'an fat it was uh his film debut oh nice i kind of like that one i did too i haven't seen in a while after we watched that one put down the list yep

but yeah this one yeah go ahead how did you uh like the the character quarks like the oCD stuff for him yeah well if he was doing all this stuff in the the dia and the dcs i guess you gotta

have your your mindset differently i mean because it wasn't so much oCD but it seemed like it was the way he had to set everything up and his house was uh immaculate and when he was sitting in the diner with his tea and everything had to be placed right. Yeah, and then you have that scene

when he went out to the first set of Russian bobsters at the club. He did the door thing, or he had to close the door like, I think like three times or something. Yeah, I didn't catch all that the first time, but after watching it a few times. Yeah, you catch some things after you watch it so many times. Yeah, I didn't catch them things after you watch it so many times. Yeah, and then I started catching it, and I was like, oh, I was like, all right, because at first I was like, what's happening here?

But no, man, I mean, I thought what he was doing, it was like, okay, he's just, plus his wife, she passed away. So he was dealing with that. So I guess we got a lot on your plate, man. you, the tics are going to start bothering you. I think it was just more of something to maybe just help with what he was going through.

Yeah. Or, I don't know, maybe, or maybe he was already like that before. So I'm not sure exactly, but I mean, he was, I have a friend that does that, but that's, uh, he does, uh, he doesn't realize he's doing it until you like bring it up to him i mean i've known him forever and he's i've noticed he's always done that but i just kind of i don't even it doesn't even i don't even notice anymore but he'll he'll turn his keys a few times before he actually starts the car

it was kind of bad at first he would walk around his car for a while and then get in and one time i asked him i mean i was just joking because i'm known it for i said if you don't do walk around the car Is it going to blow up or what? He goes, man, I don't know, man. I don't know. It's just something I deal with. All right, man. Don't bring it up.

All right. So, but he's not as bad as he was when we're kids. But this one, I just figured it was something with all the stuff that he had been dealing with. I don't know. Maybe it helps him keep his mind at ease because of his job and all the stuff he's doing. Maybe that's why he works at Home Depot or whatever it's called to constantly keep busy. I mean, I know for me personally, with the stuff I was dealing with, going to work, help me. Because I was more focusing on what I was doing and not worrying about other things that were going on in my life.

So, I don't know. I mean, everybody deals with things differently in their lives. But yeah, this took place in Boston. and he was doing his thing at I'm not going to sleep until I remember what the name of that store was. I think it's something, it's neither something Depot or something home.

I just, hold on, I just saw it. I'm watching it everyone. It's on his apron. Home Mart. That's the name. you can't say well I guess you took a Home Depot in Walmart and put it in one

but this had a lot of actors in it that you've seen in other movies other than Chloe which it's yeah I guess we did watch her grow up throughout the movies I think it was perfect casting for her because she still she probably was in her early 20s at the time filming this but she still looks like a young girl so

to have her play this underage prostitute she just kind of made hit hit girl yeah that's all that's all i see her so it kind of it made you sad for her yeah i i mean i think because since like what's her name 11. I can't look at her. I mean, I know she's older. I don't know, maybe she's pushing 20, but I just see her as little 11. And then when she's doing all these other movies...

Damsel on Netflix? No, I haven't. Is it any good? It's an okay fantasy movie, but they kind of, I think me and Phil were talking about it on one of the episodes. They kind of low-key

try to sexualize her. yeah see that's i mean when you watch someone grow up on the screen that's when you i don't know i don't i don't look at them that way like um billy ilish i mean she's a cute little girl or cute young woman but i started listening to her music when she was little or younger yeah As soon as she became of age and now she's Showing everything. I mean, but I'm like I can't look at her like that any of them. Yeah, like this one A little Chloe being a hooker a little Russian hooker. I was

I don't know. I was I was feeling weird about it. I mean, I even felt weird and um was that one movie. Um Carrie looking at her that way in it because I just I just still see a little teenage girl

She has that look Like What's the Oh we're getting off So many tangents here But what's that The one movie With the

In the airplane With the With the gremlin Monsters Airplane Yeah It was like a World War II

Oh Oh Um she's 27 I thought she was like 21 yeah whatever that movie's called she still looked like a damn child not somebody that's fighting in the war it yeah it was what the hell was that movie called

it was um shadow in the cloud or something like that um yeah I can see the poster but I don't remember exactly she was a big mama's house too yeah she was the daughter that was

a little pain in the ass I don't remember clouds of Slish Maria No no no no that's shadow in the cloud All right okay I'm gonna get the wrong flight officer Mod Garrett I didn't believe her as a flight officer I realize how many movies she had done

I did like that one movie um was a movie 43 in that one story she was it that the period one yeah

that kid did you sit in something and then he touched it uh that's the only point I remember in that me but yeah so denzil or robert mccall is doing his thing in boston working at home art uh he's got his buddies and um he's friends with one mexican guy who was training to be or get studying to be a security guard for home they take their security jobs serious at home mart you got to be certain weight you got trained i don't know man with uh today's uh today's

everyone's just going there and robbing all these stores and it seems like the security just are just standing there they don't even try to stop people now it's like in the bay it's all yeah it's like it's like a free for all yeah yeah heard you're not even allowed to chase nobody if they steal from the store some people are starting to fight back people in the stores are just getting tired of it because um my i heard a lot of them stores are closing down Yeah, they are. And a lot of the, I sent my son into like CVS. We're in San Francisco just to get some ibuprofen. He said everything was in cases.

It's not like you can just walk in there, grab something off the shelf and walk, pay for it and leave. He said everything is locked up. And it's just, it's like the wild, wild west in the Bay Area. Yeah, they're doing it up here now. It's crazy. I mean, I'm sure. it might get to where I'm at, but I don't leave anything in my car anymore,

especially when I go down there and make sure my car is empty. Yeah, what are they doing the bay, bipping? Yep, it's crazy. I mean, the last time I was down there, my truck was empty, but I just, I was still, like, nervous. Like, I didn't want to... I don't even wait for you to leave your car nowadays.

Yeah, man, they're getting you at the lights. I mean, I just saw, video today. I know we're not equalizer. Robert McCone needs to go to the bay and make Equalizer for It's crazy down there everyone

But anyway So yeah he's doing this thing Working at home art He goes and hangs out in this little Cafe and that's when he meets Chloe, what was her character's name? Terry. He meets her And he knows what she's doing

She's just all dolled up waiting for her tricks. And so he's hanging out. I like to let you know that they already have some sort of relationship because, you know, she knows about him reading the books. And I kind of like the whole layout of the diner where everybody kind of knows each other. Yeah, because it seems like he goes in there every night. And she, this is obviously her corner. So she's always going in there.

really quick one of the scenes I liked is at Home Mart he was telling his workers that he was one of the Pips from Gladys Knight and the Pips He was a Pimp He'd go

Which one are you? I'm the one on the right or whatever he said And then they go, we'll prove it And then he starts doing the dance steps So I like how they're watching the video later He was like, I think that's him right there The Afro

speaking of gladys night man she's coming to reno and i guess this is her retirement tour i'm like damn man i don't know how old she is but she's still out there doing it and this is her her retirement i mean i don't think the pips are with her it's just glad it's night now but she's still out there singing so good for her but yeah so um one night uh one of the nights um uh robert is sitting in the in the diner and Terry's in there and she's looking all all distress like she doesn't want to do what she's doing and her phone starts ringing and uh a limo pulls up outside and when she's um her phone starts blowing up so she answers it and she starts speaking Russian and the guys basically telling her get your ass out here and she's like well i don't want to go because

the last time I was there, the guy was kind of rough with her, but you could see that she doesn't want to go. And we see the guy outside, so there's a big fat dude sitting in the back of a limo. And that's when I'm like, I just, I mean, like we said earlier, I just see Chloe

as this, as this little girl. And in these movies, it's always a big fat dude. Yeah, I mean, I'm big and fat too, but I'm not a sleaze ball. also but because yeah so she kind of goes out there and Robert is kind of just

he's looking like he he knows what's going on he knows who she what she does for a living so he's kind of just minding his peas and cues and then we get a scene when he's what's the

Mexican guy's name um is he Teddy no that's the bad guy um Is it Ralphie? I think so. Yeah.

Let's just go with Ralphie. Yeah, he's training before his security guard test. Yeah, I mean, Homeart must be taking it really serious. Well, you get that scene later where somebody's just

robbing the store and brought daylight. And he don't even do nothing. So, but. So, yeah, so we get that kind of little thing. where he's helping him. We go back to the little diner.

He's in there doing this thing, drinking in his tea. We see Terry in there, and she's got sunglasses on, and it's at, it's night. And we see that she got roughed up because her face looks bruised up. So, but he, again, he doesn't want to get in her business. And she doesn't want to, I think she's just more ashamed of what she does, but she does kind of mention to like, yeah, I do music and everything. So he's kind of like, well, you know what, let's hang out. So he wants to know her a little more. He does kind of know her mainly just because when he goes in there, she's there every time.

I mean, that's so it's kind of like, oh, hey, how you doing when you see something everyone. I think there's a scene where he brought her some leftover birthday cake. Yeah. And you just made it seem like they had a conversation previous and she knew she was getting the cake or something. You could see that he wants to ask her, like, what are you doing with your life? But he's just like, he's just trying to stay on the low.

So I'm like, it's not my business. But that she does kind of bring up the music thing. And she gives them a CD to listen to because she's a singer. Yeah, she talks about how she, bought a little karaoke machine and made a little demo you can do that well I could do it too

but I can't sink so he he's walking her I assume walking her home because they're just kind of walking down the street having a conversation and then this limo kind of pulls up and

basically tells her get in the car because they start speaking of Russian but this is yeah she tells them that yeah he the the guy that's basically her pimp he's telling her like you know you just you need to listen but she told me yeah that guy's he was too rough and i don't want to see him and he's calling her a bitch and all this get in the car so he throws her in the car is she supposed to be russian yeah okay because he was she

was speaking russian with him uh with the bad guys so he's like um so robert is standing there watching all this he understands because we find out later that yeah he he since he's been in the what are they called the dia and the dcs and obviously he speaks other languages i love i love those scenes and movies where the bad guys always talking shit in their language not knowing like the was it john wick the first one yeah and then he'd be john wreschen yeah and then john wick answers in russian i noticed like in the eighties russians were all the bad guys and then they took a break for a while because we're friends with them and now they're the bad guys again so what all right hollywood but yeah when he's just standing there watching and they kind of just grab her and throw her in the car uh he comes walking over um what was his name slovy slavi he comes walking over and goes hey look um here here's a card give us a call we'll send we'll send you someone better than her

so he's kind of just like okay but he's you see that robert is kind of just looking at them trying to okay i i know who you guys are and then she dries off so the next day uh robert goes back to the diner he goes in there and he doesn't see terry so he's kind of realizing oh well maybe she's doing something else but then he Did the, no, I don't think, I don't know, he goes to the hospital. The diner guy told him that she was in the hospital. Yeah, okay. Because he seemed to know what's going on in the streets, but kind of like Robert, he just kind of minds his own business.

Well, I guess a lot of people come in there. So it isn't, you're going to find out what's going on in the streets, apparently. And the street to Boston, everyone goes into those. little diner little coffee shop so he goes yeah when he goes to the hospital we see terry and she's like just beat to hell big black guy lips busted um and one of her friends is sitting there with her and uh we don't find out who she is but robert's sitting outside uh waiting for her in the hallway and then that other lady comes walking down in the hall and we find out that she's she's a hooker as well or an escort so he kind of questions her on what happened and then she

basically tells him uh slavi in the gang roughed her up because she was it was probably because of that other customer that beat her yeah i think she hit the customer back so she basically she got beat up for defending her So. Yeah. So he ain't having it. It's time to, time to equalize.

Because yeah, she basically just told them who they are and where they're at. So he kind of goes home and he just sits there and thinks about it and thinks about it. Well, he had that card too. Yeah. So he finally, they kind of do, I don't know if it was a day or two while he was thinking about because we see him he's sitting at the park and he's sitting there thinking and thinking and then then we get uh i don't know i don't know how many days this is after but he goes uh we see the russian

guys and they're in their little restaurant clubhouse or whatever so they're all in there slovy and the gang and i think there's one two three four like four or five guys his little henchmen, a bunch of little sleazy Russian sleazebag dudes. So they're sitting in there and they're just kind of just hanging out doing the thing. But then here comes Robert. He shows up and basically just walks in. And he tries to tell Slavi like, look, I'm going to give you $9,800 to $9,000 to let Terry go. I guess her street name is Terry, but she, or is Alina.

Is that her hooker name? I think Alina is her hooker name. Okay, because this is Robert finds Slavian and his men at the restaurant and has bluntly refused when he offers to buy Alina's freedom for 9,800. Yeah, they take the money, but they let him know. that you can have her, but you need to bring her back in a month. Yeah. Because he's just trying to buy her freedom. And yeah, like you said, yeah, like, yeah, you can take her, but.

You're not buying her. You can rent her. Yeah. So he's kind of like, all right. I mean, they all think he's joking. So he's kind of like, okay. But he's like, just do it. He doesn't really let them know who he is yet.

he's kind of just looking around laying out the laws of the room scanning checking out everybody but he does do his little um i don't want to call a oCD thing but he he kind of reaches over to that guy's desk and starts moving things around i just figured he was moving things around in case he needed to use them as weapons but he doesn't so yeah they basically tell like here all right you can have her, but bring her back and we're taking your money and get the fuck out of here. So he kind of

like, all right. So he, because he starts to walk out of the room, but then he stops and he kind of opens the door, then he shuts it. Does he, is this when he opens and shuts the door? Or does he just?

I think they say something to him but makes him like, okay, I'm going to stay. And then that's when he does the open and shut the door. thing. Yeah, because he stops right before he walks out and everyone's laughing. Yeah, I think they said, I don't know if they said it in Russian or whatever. It's quiet.

And then he stops, he locks the door, he kind of starts looking around, and then he's kind of looking at where everyone's positioned in the room. Yeah, I was like this part of the move, or his character, how he visualizes the room. and where everybody's at and where the weapons are, where they're pulling it from. Yeah, because he's sitting there just kind of looking and I like the way they shot this.

Because yeah, we see his eyes and then he's kind of scanning the room looking at everyone. He doesn't turn his head though. He's just moving his eyes. So like, okay, I know where this is, I know where that is. And I'm going over and deal with this guy first, then go to this dude and once

he springs into action, He just starts to let everyone have it. He'd stay. I think he kind of scared the room and says, all right, 15 seconds. Then he presses his stopwatch. And then he walks in. And these guys are all pull out their guns. And then he just starts kicking ass.

One dude comes at him with a gun. He grabs them and spins the gun around and it shoots. He fires it. Well, that guy, he grabs that guy's arm that still holding the gun. And that guy fires it. hits Slavi in the neck or something so he goes down and then he grabs and he's just starting to beating the hell out of everyone and then he grabs a glass kind of smashes it in someone's face one guy comes at him with a knife he stabs him in the chest slashes the other guy in the throat

and then he gets the knife and shank some other guy then stabs the knife into his neck another dude comes at him with a glass and tries to box him. But he does some, oh, he grabs the, the corkscrew thing. Yeah. And then starts shaking that dude up a few times in the side. And then he just jams it under his chin. I like that. It's cool because that guy's mouth is open.

And you see that it went through the bottom of his chin and went through his tongue and everything. So, and then he says something to him in Russian. and Robert Robert says something to him and then he just kind of shoves that thing higher into his well I guess he stabbed him a few times

then sticks it in his mouth so he falls over then he looks at his watch and he's over his second I think it was like 27 seconds or something like that yeah so everyone's dead and then he walks over to

Slavi and Slavis he's not dead yet he's the he's but he's dying because he got shot in the throat or something because he's just sitting there and he's talking to him telling him like yeah this is what's going to happen and

you're going to die so he's like that money yeah because he's telling you he goes yeah you're going to suffocate the death and uh and I'm going to get out of here so Slavi ends up dying and he he uh rolls out it's crazy

seen though with the corkscrew and then the put that shot glass in that guy's eye got his money back and bounced but then he goes back on just does his thing he cleans all up uh and everything and then he goes back to work like uh like it was nothing uh he's still talking to his buddies

buddy's still training for the thing and then all of a sudden next day um He's still just kind of doing this thing at home, but then he's watching the news and he's seeing that there's other stuff going on in Boston. He's not really sure if it's related to the Russian guys yet. So then next we see a private jet and we see some guy come off the plane and what the hell was this guy's name? Teddy Renson. Okay.

The villain from Triple X. which one the first one yeah i don't remember anything all i remember is asia argento i don't remember anything i didn't that movie i don't even remember anything in the second one with ice cube but i did like the third one that one was remember in the first one they kept shoehorning all the the extreme sports stuff like he's gonna snow snowboard to outrun this avalanche or he's gonna skateboard to fight these people or it's kind of bungee cord off of this bridge.

Don't do those movies. It did not like the first two. I don't even know why I went and saw the third one. I think Theo wanted to see it. Anyway, so this guy... Remember the third one. I just remember Ice Cube showed up at the end. I don't remember anything else.

It was actually pretty good. I do remember that one. Anyway, so Teddy shows up. He goes to the restaurant and apparently they did not clean up. They took the bodies out, but they left all the blood everywhere. But he's got pictures of, I guess, of all the everybody that Robert killed, pictured, moored pictures because they're all laying on tables and everything and there are no clothes. And he's looking at him. So Teddy is looking around the room. notices the surveillance cameras and this is when we see what's his name

Hellboy Frank Frank Masters We find out that he Was he a detective or was he just a police officer? Detective All right And he's on the take So we find out that he's crooked

As well as some other guys For the Boston Police Department But Teddy's telling him like, yeah, he basically is letting them know, look, we need to find, find this guy or whoever. We need to find who's responsible for killing his men. So Teddy's like, all right, well, we're going to put the feelers out, but we don't guarantee anything because they don't really know. But Teddy, he means it's not like he's done this or he hasn't done this before. Because, yeah, like when he's scanning the room, he sees all the surveillance cameras.

So he goes to that. Oh, excuse me, but we find out that he, the Russians are dealing with the, were they Italians? Irish. Excuse me, everyone. I drink my drink too fast. So, yeah, he was, yeah, okay, he was dealing with the Irish mob. But those are the guys that were working at that, uh. Construction place?

Yeah. With the guy, David Harbor, Frank. It was like, don't call him little John. So you know Teddy's going to call him little John. Yeah. So we go back to Robert. He's still doing this thing at Homeart. He finds out that Ralphie doesn't quit his job at Home Mart.

So he kind of goes around and he finds. Ralphie's mom owns a little restaurant So he goes over there to see what's going on To see what's up with Ralphie why did he quit And we find out that Her little restaurant had a fire So he need Ralphie needed to quit and help her Get it all back in order

So he's like okay so he tells Ralphie what's up That he's going to help him out as well too. So next scene we see Teddy and Frank and they're talking to little John he's the

he's the leader of the Irish mob but he's got to be a business man. Were they running drugs? What were they doing? I think it was drugs because I think they were later you see

when they're laundering all that money I think they were one of their, the Russians were their suppliers. Oh, okay. Because I guess when you run a business, yeah, you got shady stuff going on. Yeah, because I think this is when Teddy says that he knows you got that little John and them have been skimming off the top, but they let it go. Because it's just a small amount and they already know what kind of people they are that they're going to do it anyways. yeah so it lets you know that like teddy like this guy like knows everything and hold on people decide to blow me up every time yeah so they're sitting there talking to

them uh teddy's just talking shit uh to little john and then we see um frank he's uh he's grabbing his gun and he's kind of like kind of keeping it like to his side like, okay, the shit's about to go off. But then Teddy just, I think, what do you hit him with? An ashtray? Yeah. Yeah, he grabbed the ashtray and just slams little John in the face. And then that's when Frank just, he pops.

He was quick with it too. Yeah, because one of those other guys pulled out a gun too, but he already blasted him. But then he walks over and then Teddy is just beating the shit at a little John, gives him a couple stray shots with those heels and then he just grabs him by the collar and just starts just dropping those bombs into his face uh frank is standing there like what the fuck i mean he doesn't know uh what was going on because he did kind of tell him look man we're gonna go on there and do this but but whatever you do don't kill him but when you're talking shit to these bad russians i mean they don't i've seen enough movies where they don't play that shit so i already killed two shot two

guys in there and then basically beat the hell out of little john and killed him so frank is like oh fuck man like hey what are you doing and uh teddy's like look man he goes we need to find out who's who killed my men but then frank is like hey i gotta live here you don't and he's just yelling at him he tells frank if you don't find out who did i will bring people that will find out and that won't be good for you. Because when he was initially supposed to go there to tell a little John just like, look, hey, I'm here and kind of

give them a message. Like, if you don't help us and keep the business going, I'm going to fuck you up. Because that's what Frank said. You're just supposed to give him a message. And he goes, well, I did. And killed him all. So yeah, we see

Robert, he's back. He's still helping Frank. Yeah, Frankie. Ralphie. Yeah. But then they kind of realize that there's there's something else going on there because that's later on. Now that's now. When he sees those two cops? Well, first, when he goes and sees him at the restaurant, he notices the way it looked like it burnt that somebody set it on fire.

And then later he tells Ralphie like, you know, what really happened. And that's when Ralphie tells him about the extortion. Oh, okay. Yeah, so he tells him that. And then this is when we go to back to Teddy, and he's kind of looking over pictures still. And he's talking to that other hooker that was with Terry in the hospital. And, yeah, he's sitting there with no shirt on.

And then this is when we realize that he's the real deal. because he's got all those crazy Russian tattoos kind of reminded me of was a history of violence or no no no no was that the one? No

um shit you know I'll talk about what that Vigo was he was in that he was when they were Russian yeah that's like a that's like a real Russian gangster thing like they say if you don't have

no your tattoos tell your stories and if you have no tattoos, you don't have those, there's nothing about you. Because isn't that one of those guys and John Wake have them all over him? Yeah. And I know

I know if you got like the your family your family crest or something on your knees that's supposed to mean like you'll never you'll never bow down to nobody because you'll be kneeling on your family's name or something.

Yeah. So, They get pretty deep with it with the tattoos. Yeah, so we see all that, and then we go back to the restaurant. This is when we see these two guys in suits, basically. These are Boston detectives, and they shake down Ralphie's mom for some money. I don't remember exactly how much they had to pay her. Some crazy amount of money that they needed to, she needed to pay every week.

And this is when we find out that they were the little. ones that set the place on fire because she didn't she didn't pay up so then those two guys walk outside they're going to the car in the alley and this is when robert uh shows up and uh he starts talking shit to them and basically tell them he knows uh who you guys who you guys are and i know what you're doing and telling them they're uh they're corrupt and then they see they kind of see him standing there looking at him and then they they're in their car and then they kind of stop and then they get out and they start going up on them basically gonna try to rough him up but that he uh he lets them have it but he tells them what's up because he made a video he shows them uh of them

uh shaking down ralphie's mom and telling him like look if you don't uh knock this shit off and give her the money back. This video is going to go everywhere. He tells them to give all the money back to everybody. Yeah, because they were shaking down everybody on that block and everything. So, sorry, everyone, it's allergy season already. Because, yeah, they kind of shake him down a little. They put him up against the wall, start searching them, and the other one's pulling out their guns. And they asked him, well, how many videos do you have of that, of what he filmed?

And he goes just one and then he turns it around and then just beats the hell out of these two cops grabs their guns and tells them look if you guys don't change your ways basically. I'm putting that video out and you need to give everybody their money back. So they're like, all right. So he kind of just empty these are gun. It takes the clip out and then just drops it on them and then. rolls out. So the next day, we find out where we see those cops go back to Ralphie's mom's restaurant and they look all beat up still and they give her the money back.

I like what the one guy says. He was like, I don't know what was worse, giving the money back or getting a beaten. And we go back to Home Mart and we see Ralphie's there working again and he's all happy. Eastern promises. That's- It was racking my brain. Sorry. After the, yeah, we see Ralphie back in action at Home Mart. We go to Teddy. He's at, I don't even know what that other chick's name was.

I wasn't her. The other hooker girl. I don't even know what her name was. But he, was he trying to just get some information at her? Oh, Terry. I think he was trying to figure out. Oh, shit, I'm thinking of something else. I think her name was Mandy.

Because it says, Teddy kills Mandy after learning that she concealed information about Robert and lied about her friendship with Alia. Oh, okay. So he's still trying to figure out who, killed everyone. But she didn't really know him. She just kind of... She said a black man came to see her.

How's it? Yeah. I mean, she didn't know, but I guess that was enough information. Because when he was looking at the videos at the restaurant to see who was coming in and out of that place, the night that all

those guys got killed, he does see him, but he doesn't know who he is. I mean, we covers his face when he's in front of the camera. Yeah. So, because he's kind of like, well, I think this is the guy. I'm pretty sure. He was pretty sure that that was him, but he didn't know.

No, couldn't see who he was. I think this is the part where I, I shouldn't know this movie as many times as I watched it. But I think this is the part where I didn't quite understand how he, because I feel like he just, after this, he just shows up at Robert's apartment. well i think he started putting two and two together i mean that's the only way i could think of because she didn't really know who he was but he i guess he got enough information out of her and she knew she was going to die he's like hugging her and kind of kissing on her and he puts his arm around her neck and then just starts squeezing and she's ah and they basically strangled her and snapped her neck so

yeah you don't really see it him actually choking her but when it just pans down you see her leg starts shaking it was kind of brutal yeah he he kills her and then he goes back on back on the hunt so we get some more scenes of uh robert the gang he playing softball for home art this is when we first we finally see uh ralphi he uh passed the security guard test because he's standing there and his all uniform and everybody's happy for him. Real quick.

Why Robert steal that guy's moment? When he hit that pop-up pop-fly? I don't know. Like you have no trust in your teammates? I guess not.

We see a quick scene. This is when Teddy is showing Frank them. All right, look, this is the guy. But yeah, we, they couldn't really see. We see the silhouette of Robert, but we don't, they don't know who he is. Basically, this is who we're looking for. Then we go back to Home Mart, and this is when it's getting robbed by some, some dude just comes in there. He's kind of holding up one of the cash cashiers, basically, give me all the money.

Then he sees her ring on her wedding ring on her finger, and he's like, give me the ring. Give me the ring. so she's like no no but he's like Robert's like just just give it to him so she's I thought when I originally seen I thought he was going to do something in the store because she's all like it's my mother

it was my mother's and the guy's like fuck your mother I thought Robert was going to like jab him or something yeah I did too but I mean I like what he does and but he kind of assesses the situation he's standing there and he's just looking at this guy

he notices his hat he notices the tattoos on his neck uh the other tattoos that he has on his arm and we the audience thinks he's going to spring into action but he doesn't he kind of just here's the money uh here's your ring and the guy just walks out yeah he he stops because he's like you said

he's doing this thing where he's getting all the information but then he notices like some children coming to the store. Yeah, so he doesn't do anything, but he walks out after that guy. He sees the car, that guy gets in, he sees his license plate, and then he goes back in,

talking to Ralphie, and he didn't do anything. Oh, you can't be everywhere at the same time. Those are pretty big stores. Is he the only security guard? I guess. I never pay attention to security. but you figure there would be more than one in there.

But the cops are all in there. They're taking everyone's statement. We see Robert. He kind of just tells Ralphia, it's all good. And you can't be everywhere. So Robert starts walking down the aisles and he goes and grabs one of those little mini sledgehammers off the rack.

And then we cut, excuse me, we cut to, what the hell is this guy's name, Teddy? And he's, excuse me, he's looking at all the pictures. He finds more video or pictures from Robert getting on the bus, but he still really can't see his face. So we go back to Home Mart. Everyone's getting ready to go home.

The lady they got robbed the day before, she goes to her little cash register. She opens it up and her wedding. is in there. So she's kind of look around like, whoa, how did this get here? And then we see Robert walking down the aisle and he's cleaned it off the sledgehammer and he puts it back on the rack. Somebody's going to buy them murder weapons. Yeah, so, yeah, I don't know.

I assume he killed him. I mean, hitting someone with that's going to do some damage. Unless he just broke some legs or hands, I don't know. He probably equalized his hands. anywhere you get hit with one of those little things hurts so we go back to robert's house he's he's sitting there doing this thing but then he kind of he hears somebody

he's not really sure what's happening so he walks over to the door he's looking around starts checking his watch he grabs the keys he's over by the door kind of just looking and then he opens the door and then this is when teddy comes walking up and changes his accent and says that he's he's doing an investigation about the the russian guys the five russian guys who got killed in the restaurant but um he says he's a cop but i mean uh robert realizes like okay there's something going on because he just kind of starts telling him everything

and uh he said he's just kind of well why'd you come here and he's like oh we're just kind of just kind of just looking around talking about people that I guess the restaurant was within walking distance so he starts telling them some other things and basically were you there and he's like I now I wasn't I was somewhere else but Teddy just realized it okay talking to him this this is a guy who we're looking for he pulls out a

a picture of the hooker that he killed earlier and is like do you do you know her He's like, no, I don't know her. He's like, all right, well, we'll be in touch. And then he's kind of like, all right, man, just, well, we see you. Teddy starts talking, he's not talking shit, but he realizes that something's going on. Because he does, because Teddy does ask him, well, how did you pay? Because he asked him, were you at the restaurant that night?

He goes, yeah, I was there. And he goes, well, there was no card or anything. with your name on. He goes, oh, I paid in cash. Because he said he was going to meet somebody there, but the person he was supposed to meet didn't show up. And he said, yeah, I just paid cash. And like, okay, so he leaves. But then Robert walks out, checks his watch.

He goes into the window to look to look out the window and see it. He sees Teddy get into a car. And then the car is Frank, a hellboy. But he tells him like, all right. right this this this is the guy so uh i don't i got i get lost what happened after this i think the next couple scenes is when they uh i think they tried to kidnap frank or try to catch him like a couple times i don't remember i only remember the time in the um

the diner they um they start watching him because i remember he's going to work or just doing whatever and somebody's uh taking pictures of him as he's like walking down the street and doing his thing um but then he goes back to his house

and he starts because he went to the store bought some things and then he goes to his house it starts uh setting up stuff like he knows these guys are coming back so but teddy kind of goes back to wherever he's at they did some more investigation they got pictures of them and they got uh all this stuff isn't this where uh robert shows up to his place at that at that club or restaurant no they're i don't know i'm kind of scamming through that they're on the part where

they have all these this whole file on Robert but when they're reading it all the Teddy's like this is all fabricated this is bullshit

yeah because he's like the most boring normal guy according to these files yeah but he kind of he he realizes no this guy's a somebody this that's what he said this is all bullshit so we go back

to Robert's house and he's he's gearing up because he's doing some stuff but then Teddy starts talking about like yeah he knew where all the cameras were so he knew how to avoid the cameras catching him so he's just kind of just putting all his uh his things together and what he thinks uh who robert is because he told this guy's a somebody he's got the skills so yeah robert did some stuff at his apartment and then he goes back to the restaurant He's sitting in there doing his thing some dude comes in some construction worker looking guy

Got tattoos all over him. He's sitting there Roberts Kind of scamming him look at him and they can doces his hands Yeah, he looks he looks out the The door out out the street. He realizes something's waiting for him And that's what he's like are you the only one and he's like what he's talking about He goes, if you're a construction worker, look at your hands. He said they would be all these beat up.

I use my hands every day, but I don't do construction. But my hands out all that beat up. So he knows what's going on. He knows what's happened. And the guy gets up because he's kind of laughing. The guy pulls out a little machine guy, one of those little small little oozy looking things. But we're out outside.

we see Frank and Oh, excuse me. Teddy. They're sitting out there looking in. And that guy gets up with the gun and walks over towards Frank or towards Robert. You know, Robert is just sitting there. So while those guys are outside looking into the diner, this big truck pulls up. So it kind of blocks their sight.

So they can't even see in there. So they're basically telling them like, look, he's that guy's getting right. He's going to kill him. but Frank Robert starts doing his thing looking around the room trying to assess the situation but as that guy gets closer

Roberts got his hand his hands is flat on the table but one of his hands I think it's his left hand is on that book that he's reading and as that guy gets closer he grabs that book and shoves it in his gut he goes down then Robert gets up beast of shit out of him

and then did he stab him in the back of the neck I think he stabbed him in the back of the neck with a butter knife or something. Yeah, he stabbed him with the knife, and then he put the knife in the outlet to knock the power out. Yeah, I think he's rough and tough. He can deal with that shock. Because, yeah, he shoves that little butter knife

and then the whole power goes out into the diner. And then he looks out the window. He sees them start the car up. He walks outside. Robert walks outside. He pulls out of his cell. phone and just starts taking pictures of them and the guys in the car's like what the fuck and he's just walking across the street snapping shots I don't know what kind of phone

that is but when we see those pictures man they're like pretty clear and I'm pretty sure his phone isn't the best I mean 2014 I don't think I don't think it was an iPhone Yeah, it looked like a little, what was it, a little Motorola. Yeah, so I don't know. Nokia. Whatever he does, he kind of goes, he walks off, and then the other dudes that are there, they jump out of the car and they start running after him. Robert kind of just goes down the alley, and he's running, and the little Russian hit guys are running after him, and they're looking. Teddy, he gets out walking as well.

Frank is too but he kind of just he must as soon as he got around the corner he like took off because yeah he doesn't see him but when Teddy goes around the corner and he sees blood on the wall did he get stabbed or something

I think he got shot when he took out the guy in the diner I think he caught astray okay so yeah I think one of the dudes they're a little henchmen they're walking down the little dark alley or whatever and then Robert comes out. It just starts beating the hell out of that dude.

And while that guy's laying there on the ground, he flips up his shirt and he was a cop because he sees his badge. And then Frank comes while or Teddy goes walking around a quarter and the guy that Robert jumped. He picks him up and he didn't, I think he just knocked him out. then Frank shows up and they're walking around looking for him but they don't see him. So they go back to Frank's house or um Frank. Uh, uh, Teddy and the gang show up there.

Uh, he's in, he was in the house getting something set up because he had something cooking on the stove. I don't even know what that was. Honey. Uh, okay. So those guys are creeping up the stairs.

Robert is standing there. Oh, was um he did get shot because he's in the bathroom uh pulled the bullet out i guess i don't know i think it was closing the wound with the honey or something does that work i mean i don't know he's a special d ic or d i or whatever they go into the house and they start looking around As the audience is watching this, we think that Robert is just in the bathroom doing this thing. And while these guys are walking out and I'm looking at, then we find out that Robert isn't even in this apartment.

But he has all kinds of things set up for him. These guys are little surveillance because he's actually across the street watching them and everything. So I'm like, oh, okay, well, he ain't here. but Teddy is kind of like all right this guy's good so because he sees all that and everything so he Robert kind of

realizes by this time he knows who they are the cops are involved the Russians are involved and sorry the way I sound to everyone my allergies are kicking my hats that's that time of the year he's watching

Robert is watching all this stuff because he's got a laptop set up and he's looking at the camera. But he's set up, he's got all of those little spy cameras in his house. Because he's get all kinds of different angles. So he sees all that. He's watching them. So they're like, ah, all right. Teddy's smart too because one of the guys find that,

flight attenuary or whatever it's called. The guy's like, oh, he's trying to leave. And Teddy's like, no, he's not. He just wants us to think he's leaving. Sorry about that, everyone. I thought I muted my mic, and it didn't. I blew my nose. But, yeah, so once they all leave the apartment,

we see Robert out in the countryside, and this is, I believe, he's going to see Bill Pullman, who is Brian Palmer. President Pullman. Yeah, Brian Palmer and his wife, Susan. So he kind of goes up to them. So he's got pictures of these bad guys that are after him. So he kind of shows them the camera pictures that he took.

And they tell him. She's still in whatever agency he used to work for. So she can pull up his information immediately. Yeah. So he, because Robert didn't know who this guy was. but then she does and then she finally tells him who he is

so basically just Russian mob so but he's yeah he's still got his connections with them and they they're showing them some other pictures of the

who the leader is this uh Vladimir Pushkin. Yeah, Teddy isn't the leader. He's just one of the, I guess the main foot soldier, the one of the right-hand man of the bad guy. What did you say his name was? Vladimir.

Vladimir. His real name is Vladimir. Yeah. So they're like, all right, well, he lets him know who they are and what kind of damage they can do. And so he's like, all right, well, I got to equalize them. She doesn't tell him no, but basically kind of, all right, you, we know what you're going to do, but don't get killed. Yeah, because her and her husband have that conversation when he leaves.

And she was like, what was he asking for? Forgiveness or something? or she was like, no, permission. That he could do it. So, you know, he's really about to go fuck somebody up now. Yeah, I guess he had to find out who he was dealing with. Like, if I kill this guy, what's going to happen? And that's what she broke it down.

Like, all right, this guy's a somebody. He works for this dude, for Vladimir. So I can tell you not to do it, but I have a feeling you're going to do it anyway. but basically if you're going to do it we don't know you and you don't know us so he's like all right well all right I'm gonna go do what I gotta do so we go back to Frank's house Elboy he's doing something he goes out he hears things

and he's going about out and he do shit's about to go down and he's already realizing that he's way over his head deal I think he's been hiding out yeah because Robert finds him and he goes into the into the garage and he sees that his car has a hose taped up to the exhaust pipe and it's in his car

so Robert knocks out Frank a little bit throws him in the car handcuffs him to the steering wheel and then starts his car and then he rolls the window up so basically you better give me some answers or all this gas this exhaust is going to kill you so he's in there ha i'm just kind of coughing and trying to breathe and basically told him i can't tell you that if i tell you they're going to kill me and he's like well you either tell me something

or you're going to die because we see him sitting there uh he's robber's just sitting outside in an old chair and that he's kind of just he keeps rolled down the window up and down, but then he finally gives it to it. Like, all right, all right. I'll let you know. This is when he takes them to that. It wasn't drugs. What was it? It was a money laundering place. Okay. Because he knows what's going on there.

And I assume he goes there to get money because they didn't seem to stop him or anything. he posed as when he went with frank he posed as one of the i think he had that uh the cop he knocked out earlier i think he had his badge oh that's robert so yeah so robert was posing as he was one of the he was another dirty cop and they were there because teddy said they needed a pushkin or somebody said they need to move the money and that one guy was kind of looking at him like i don't know this seems this doesn't seem right Yeah, because when they go into that place, the meatpacking place,

there's another room where there's like just money everywhere, piles of it and just all on the floor. We see pallets of it all wrapped up, stacks and stacks of money. We see all these workers in there wrapping up money, counting money and putting cellophane wrap or something around it. And then he goes in there. And was he just trying to get money from these guys?

I think he was trying to take Teddy's money to get Teddy to come after him. But I didn't know. I didn't see how he thought they was just going to move the money for them, believing that they got to transport the money just off of what they were saying. Yeah, because all the money, they go on there and say that they want Pushkin's money. Yeah. And they're like, what? And he's like, yeah.

because they start throwing the main guys name around. And they're so kind of confused. Like, wait, what? But he's like, yeah, just give me what you got. And all these guys that are in there, man, they're all strapped up. Shotguns, pistols, machine guns. And one of the dudes that wasn't feeling it, he kind of walks up on Robert with a pistol, points it at him.

But Robert, like, with the quickness, just grabs it. That was smooth. well that guy walked up all loosey-goosey thinking he was raw and they just grabs it out of his head hella fast yeah you don't need to get that close to put the gun point a gun at somebody if yeah you gotta walk up that close to shoot someone man you you shouldn't be shooting a gun he could easily sat there on that pile of money he was on and just pointed it at him yeah i think it was like the third or fourth time i seen this i was just like the bullet leaves the gun you don't have to go put the gun to his head.

Yeah, so he basically told him like, look, man, I'm going to kill all you, so you better give it up. I'm surprised there wasn't a big firefight. He was just with one gun and everyone else was all strapped up. I think we were supposed to believe that that guy was in charge of that whole operation.

And you remember Robert went out and put the gun to his nuts? Yeah. It was like telling everybody dropped their guns. So, I'm assuming that guy was the guy in charge of that area. All right. I think it's I'm trying to find it. I like how when the ladies were leaving

Robert was just giving them stacks. Yeah, those are all the people that were wrapping of the money. It says Robert tracks masters down and threatens him helping him take down the Pushkin's money laundering warehouse Masters and Pushkin's bid are taken into custody. when the police arrive and they find a note left by Robert

to follow the money. All right. Because yeah, so they basically went in there and did all that. Oh, we skipped the scene. It was like one of my favorite scenes when he goes and when he gets the information about Teddy and he meets him at the restaurant

and he's telling him a story about some little kid and he's basically he's telling him Teddy's background and he was like that little kid was you hunt Nikolai and Teddy's looking at him. I'm like, what the fuck? You know, all my information. I still don't know who the hell you are.

I don't think that happened yet, did it? Because after the money thing, Frank, he hanks up can handcuffs him. And Robert's basically telling him, like, look, you, you got to go down two. Oh, maybe it's coming up. Because he's like, look, you got to do the right thing. And he's like, I can't, man.

because they're going to kill me now. So he's like, if I go in there and say something, they're going to kill them. They're probably going to kill him anyway. But he's like, no. Frank was never going to make it out of this. Oh, no. He was already, he was guaranteed and he's going to get killed. Because I think they mentioned Frank had, Frank said he had some kind of exit plan, like some evidence.

And I was like, they don't care about your exit plan or your evidence. Yeah. Hold on. man, leave you alone. Bulls have blowing me up. But, because yeah, after all that, the police show up, like the real, well, they're all cops, but they show up and they find all that money. And one of them, one of the bills said follow the money. And this is when they find, is Frank in there all tied up?

Oh, no, no, no, no, they go into the room where they said follow the money. And they find all those pallets of all the wrapped up money and all the, that one tough guy and this whole gang all handcuffed in there, um, tied up. And then he's like, oh, shit. Then we go to the restaurant where Teddy is sitting there talking to some other Russian dude. I don't know who this guy is, but he's talking to someone on the phone, probably Vladimir. And this is when Robert comes in. And he tells him that story. Yeah, I just like that scene because Teddy's just like still hasn't quite figured out who Robert is.

But Robert's just telling him all his, telling him stories about him when he was a child and then drops his real name. He says right here he can, excuse me, he confronts Nikolai again threatening to do more damage if he continues to pursue him. He later destroys two of pushing. kids okay I'm jumping ahead now yeah he comes in and sits down and lets him know like I know who you are and I know what you who you work for

and if you don't leave town hells more more damage is going to come I already got all your well he doesn't have his money you can please already got all your money and everything yeah that's what he he tells him the story but he still doesn't know who Robert is yeah I'm just like he stops calling him Teddy. Because he's like, you ain't Teddy, Nikolai.

So he tells him all that. And then all right, it says right here, it says later he destroys two of Pushkin's oil takers. All right. So after this scene, after that, after he tells him that story. And we, Robert, though, well, Robert wouldn't have knew who they were if he wasn't for the Palmers. Susan was the one that let him know who this guy was.

was so he went in there with all that information and laid it down on him like look I know who you are but you still don't know who I am or what I can do so this is when we get uh did he go over there just loaded up with the explosives yeah okay oh sorry everyone yeah yeah he goes over there and he blows all that up but then there's a scene when they're looking on uh or robber's looking on the computer and he sees um terry she's in there like uh russian hookers uh terry's pictures on there uh that one girl that they killed earlier her pictures there and everything so he does he start going through and sees it all his uh information bank information i think so because I think he got something.

Didn't he get something from Frank? Like some little thumb drive? I think so. Because he's going through all of that stuff on the computer. And then he finds all the tankers that are down in the harbor. Because there's Russian boats are down there. Yeah, so basically he's just fucking up all their shit.

Yeah, we don't know what he exactly does because if we just see, they just show him walking away. and then all of a sudden he looks at us watching him the the ship start blowing up so he he's walking away in slow motion and you just see this big huge explosions uh behind him so he went in there did more damage uh to the russians and uh got out of there well teddy should or nikolai whoever whatever's name is he should have listened because he told him look man if you don't get out of here shit's couldn't go bad And it did because he went there, blew everything up.

Teddy's back at his place, and he finds out everything what happened. He's, I assume he's getting scrimmed at by Vladimir on the phone. But we see all his guys gearing up. And one of these big dudes, he was in the Mandalorian, the big bald guy. With the twirly mustache and beard? yeah he was uh that's uh that's tape fletcher i want to say he was um the big heavy machine gunter yeah he's uh in the accountant he's in john wick he always he's you if you like pay attention you always see him in these kind of roles i think he i think he used to be an m m mary guy

that turned into a stunt guy i have to watch the Those ones again. I know John Wick, he's the one in the club. I think if you remember the one that John grabs his beard and slams his head down and shoots him in the head. Oh, yeah, okay. And I think the accountant, come on memory. The accountant, I think he's the one Ben Affleck beats his ass, he takes his belt off and uses his belt.

Okay. So he's a lot of shit. yeah so robert is doing this thing uh he gets a call from ralphi and ralphi's telling him like hey man these guys came in here and

uh they got they had everybody tied up at home art and basically they must have figured out where he worked well i guess they followed them i don't remember exactly how they found out it worked but they went in there they tied up everybody and so now he's on his way over there teddy

and the gang uh got everybody everyone's loaded up with weapons all the the home mart people that were there are all tied up so he's on his way to uh to home mart he's got some sniper guys outside uh looking at the bus i guess the phone he had they were tracing but uh they're looking through the windows and they don't see him on there. But the camera goes into the bus and the phone is on still. The call is still going, but he just left it in there and somewhere

he jumped out the bus. So all the lights are off pretty much in Home Mart. Ralphie and all the employees are tied up and then they kind of grab him and then they realize he's coming so we got to get ready.

so question none of these workers knew that he who he was other than just he claimed he was one of the pips right yeah yeah okay he's just a super nice guy that works at what you call

a home art yeah that's that that's it because yeah after this situation he he rolls out because he's not in Boston anymore in the second one. Well, he has to go equalize now. He's got to equalize full

time. Because he's like, I know we're not there yet, but doesn't he like leave a message on Craigslist or something like that? Oh, he does, yeah. If you need some equalize and hit me up. So what are my friends?

I said, yeah, we're going to do the first equalizer. She was like, oh, okay. This is back when I watched it the first time. And then I was watching. She was mess texting me. What are you watching now? I said, Equalizer 2.

And he goes, what? He didn't do all his equalizing in the first one? I said, no, he equalizes the third time. There's three movies? I said, yeah. She was like, huh? She doesn't like these type of films. There's no Craigslist needed for the third one.

So, yeah, everyone's all tied up. they're not sure where he's at yet because he finally gets to to the home mart before he starts to equalize and all these guys with all this high-tech machine guns I don't even know what kind of guns these guns are but they got scopes with night vision and everything and they're just looking around I don't know how did they just turn on all the lights you'd see him coming

but they're all lurking around Ralphie is running around all tied up. He tries to throw some distraction down because one of the guys are like get down, get down. But then Robert comes up behind and takes out the first dude

that he tells Rafi like, look hey, get everybody and get the hell out of here. Because shit's about to go down. So it's like, all right. He has no questions. He just watched. Super nice guy, Robert just, I think the first guy he kills, he

just snaps his neck like super quick yeah he did because after he hit that dude in the face he uh took the gun out of his hand and then snapped it so ralph he just like oh okay okay yeah so he's he's lurking around uh we keep showing all these guys with guns uh looking around and robert is is kind of lurking in the cut but he does turn on all the lights Because all the lights come on. And I think there's like about six dudes in there. Plus, um, Teddy or whatever's name, Nikolai. He's walking.

He's in there. Then all of a sudden, all the lights were on for a minute. They turned them all the lights on. And then he shuts them all off again. And they're like, fuck. So only the, um, security lights come on. So when all the doors are shut and they're kind of just looking around like, all right, what's happening?

here and we see Robert just lurking around and again they have all the night vision scopes so they're still not sure what's happening and Teddy he's just standing in the light I liked all this part because one of those guys

is standing there and then he gets hit in the neck with I don't know one of those pruner things you cut things down yeah branch pruners yeah he's uh he's walking down the the aisle and um he just out of nowhere

it just goes through his neck and shoots out the other side there's a one guy he like lassoes him with like a barbed wire and just yanks him up into the one of the top shelves or something yeah he starts putting um fertilizer or something on the ground yeah it's like he steps on it and he looks down and then yeah that bob wire thing comes around his neck and then he pushes something over for the weight and that guy he goes up into the rafters uh ralphie is getting everyone out the door uh out the back and then that guy is standing there hanging and robber's just looking at him um i guess you need to extra to be extra dead with the bob wire jamming into your neck so so that guy's dead and he goes back down

I think this is when he takes out the guy with the whatever the pruder things and he kills that fool and then he gets another dude with a power drill those guys are just kind of walking around

he walks up it just sticks the the little drill bit to the back of his head and he stops and it zizz yeah I like that because it doesn't show it but the camera just pans over to

Denzo's face and then like you said, all you heard is. Yeah, I mean, I want to see, I want to just see it go into him. Yeah, the camera moves away. But, so what Denzel is out there after he killed one of those dudes, Teddy sees him, it starts firing, shooting at him. Robert comes and gets out of the way and starts running off into the dark. Teddy's running around. He's screaming. He's starting to find all his guys dead everywhere.

where's the big dude at he's still I think that's who he fights next all right so he killed the three guys so far there's another dude walking around oh he gets him with he teddy teddy

robert has a blow torch and what was I don't remember what he did with this I'm watching this everyone all right it comes the big bald guy he's walking around oh he's heating up a doorknob with a blowtorch torch and oh he got shot so he's a carterizing the wound so he eats up that doorknob and it sticks it on him so but teddy set up some uh some traps because there's some trip wires in there

uh i think he sprayed something all over the floor uh gas something i don't know because that guy's there's a blow torch tied up with a string but they see it so they kind of stop And they look it because those guys are with the other guys with the guns. They see it. So they kind of step over it. And then Teddy's are Teddy. Oh, this is when the guy gets it with the drill. He comes up behind him.

That's it for him. He's down. Because, yeah, I wish he just showed it. But he hits the ground and then when the dude spins around and starts searching him. They show the drill bit. I don't know. It's a few inches long. And it's all bloody.

so these guys go walking up on him oh this is the bald dude he comes walking around oh this is when he has the big fight with him yeah yeah because he's he's walking around oh the other dude gets um no no he fights this guy before that other guy gets killed because that that bald guy sees him and then he just starts do you just start firing it everywhere

but uh robber's too fast teddy's still walking around looking But then Robert jumps down and then he has a he got a knife or something Because then they start fighting and then he's he's trying to stab him but that big guy is pretty big So he's grabbing Robert and throwing all around he pulls out a knife he's swinging it around They're throwing each other all over the place With that toilet yeah they crashed into a sink or a toilet or something so that breaks That big dude man that big guy would I mean he's big I seen him at a con one time and he's tall and I don't know

how tall Denzel is, but I don't know, but Denzel's a secret agent, dude. So he gets, when they're out there fighting, he gets some of that broken glass or a mirror or something, and he stabs that guy in the face

and cuts him, but he's still got some fighting in him because Denzel's laying on his back, and that guy's trying to stab him. Teddy's still lurking around. The other day, there's another guy walking around, too. He's lurking around. uh denzo reaches for a knife he grabs it oh no uh not a knife uh shard a glass and he stabs it in the back of that guy's neck uh and then he's ah and then he falls down so that guy that big dude is dead oh this is when that other guy goes into the uh was it the break room or whatever and he uh put uh something in a microwave um

like coffee coffee mugs or something they're like spray cans I think oh yeah um while uh robert's kind of trying to hide uh ralphy comes running in he's like what are you doing

I'm here to help you he's like you gotta get out of here and he tells him he's like look man he kind of tells him to go another direction you got 45 seconds start running that way so those guys are shooting at them because they see Teddy and the other dude

Oh he tells them to go turn the power on In exactly 40 seconds Yeah So Ralphie's running as they're shooting at him And he's ah He's just running He's just running hella fast And those guys are all shooting

Just opening fire at him So he gets shot in the ass or the leg or something Yeah he gets hit in the back of the leg Teddy shoots him So he's running towards I assume the word You turn on the power Um

the other guy is walking around oh he follows uh I think it's some blood into the to the break room because then Ralphie turns the lights on and then that guy hears something the microwave beeps he spins

around and the whole place blew up but yeah I think he's like some some cans of aerosol cans or something in there do microwaves work like that I have no idea because in my logic, if the power went off and the microwave went off and it came back on, when you have to turn the microwave back on, I don't think it would just start back up at the same exact time.

Yeah, I don't know. In the movies, I guess that's how they work. Some new home art microwaves, I guess. So, Ralphie, he has a sidearm. Um, the, the explosion sets off the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, the, the, uh, the waterworks, the, the sprinklers. The sprinkler system comes on. Um, uh, Teddy's running over to the break room because he sees Ralphie in there. But then before he goes into the room, uh, he gets shot. Uh, Teddy gets shot in the back with a, um, was it a nail gun that he's shooting at him? Yeah, he's shooting. Yeah, he's shooting

nail guns. I don't know how powerful those things are. I've never ever used one, so I assume I can shoot across the room. I think I've seen like a YouTube video says it doesn't work like that. Especially if it's not

hooked up to like a compression air compression thing. It looks like he's got some like CO2 thing. Yeah. In this. I mean, I don't know how much force comes out of that thing but

he's walking in the rain or in the sprinkler system just shooting Teddy with all these nails and then after he hits him enough times he falls to his knees and then he walks over and sticks

the nail gun up to his neck and then slow motion lets him have it I think this is one part of the movie I didn't like because I kind of wanted them to have a fight scene. Yeah, I mean, I wanted them to, for as bad as Teddy was, I mean, yeah, cut his head off or something. A quick little, little hand-to-hand scene and then have Teddy die violently.

Yeah, slice his throat or something, but, yeah, but he did shoot him up with all those nails. Ralphie is still looking out the window at him, like. for her, Ralphie. You know, like, who are you? But Teddy's dead. Ralphie sees him. And then he just

kind of walks off into the night to the back of home mart. So everyone, the evil is punished. Everyone is dead. We go to Moscow. It says three days later.

And Vladimir, excuse me. He's in his bathroom. or something. Like he's getting ready to take a shower or something. But all the lights go out. And then when the lights come back on, he's getting out of the shower.

Roberts sitting there. And he's basically, he's here to kill him. That guy's kind of, Vladimir's like, yeah, whatever. He's got tattoos all over him too. So he's just basically,

all right, well, you've come to kill me? He's like, yep. So, I'm going to do what I'm about to equalize your ass when he doesn't say that. He's telling him what's going on and what he's going to do. So he shuts the light off and then Vladimir kind of walks over to the lights and he turns him on and Robert's gone. But when he turns the lights on, the water's running in his sink and it's spilling all over the floor. He walks over and he's screaming for his guards and there's some kind of little electric things or something on the floor.

So when that water hits it, he, Vladimir standing in the water and then he gets shocked to death because we see the lights flickering. We see Robert walking down down the stairs. We see one of his guards dead laying on the stairs leaning against the wall. He walks around the corner. There's another dude laying there dead. and then he walks outside and oh okay this is three days later

so he's still his hand he walks past he's outside he walks past another dude he's laying there dead is this a movie with the little kid or I think of something else I think it's the second is that the third or the second one

when there was a little kid outside that's I'm thinking of another movie anyway yeah it's a different movie we're back in Boston he comes out of a store and Terry comes running up to him

telling him that, yeah, hey, I'm out of life. I'm gonna go be a singer, but I just want to let you know I'm leaving town and thank you for everything. Tells him somebody happened to leave her $9,800. Yeah, so he's like, all right, well, you do you and I'm gonna do my thing.

Gotta go write a Craigslist message. Yeah, I gotta go equalize some more. So you go be a singer because yeah, he told him that yeah, somebody gave him almost $10,000 in the envelope and a ticket out of town. And he's like, uh, all right. And she goes,

oh, it's probably hush money. And I'm like, yeah, probably. So he's like, all right, well, she kind of go live your life and I'll see you later yeah I think Terry was just her her hooker name

because he calls her Alina and then he so terrible no offense to anybody named Terry or Mandy but it just kind of seems like the other way around those were like their hooker names for some reason

so he she takes off and he's just doing his thing. Yeah, then he's sitting back in that little diner on Craigslist or whatever. Telling everyone, yeah, if you need someone to be equalized, hit me up. And I'll know, I'll help you out. He doesn't charge. He just does it out of the kindness of his heart.

I kind of made it seem like finances are not a problem for him. All right. Yeah, so. real quick i'm looking i was just looking through the cast list and one of the crooked detectives that was extorting money from the restaurant is mark walberg's brother one of them was oh uh those two cops yeah one of them i'm looking at it says robert walberg played one of the crooked boston police detectives oh sure he wasn't paying attention to what they don't even I kind of want to go back and see who it was, but then that means I'll be watching it for a fifth time.

Oh, man. But that's the equalizer, boys or girls. So, but. We did it. That was on Peacock. I want to say Hulu has the second one. And the third one's on Netflix still, I think. if you haven't seen it either

the second or the third one go over there and check those out but all right man what we got next for them uh we got to do the recently released roadhouse remake

starring jayton jillen hall and Connor McGregor this one watched the first one yeah I did uh because it kind of I won't

spoil it, but I think it's good if you watch the original one before you watch the new one, just kind of see and compare. Yeah, we'll see. Can't leave me alone. But

I don't, I've seen the original, but I don't remember much of it, other than the fight scene at the end. When you rip that guy's throw out and Terry Foote. monk rest in peace

i don't even remember who else was in that movie oh uh the uh the the blind guitar player no the blind guitar player um he's he's a real musician somebody's yelling his name uh sam elliots in there keith david not david keiths in there

for like 30 seconds even though he's in the opening credits. Jeff Healy. I would have been up all night trying to remember him. Oh, and what's her name from the Great Witchboard? She's in this. Kathleen Will Hoddy or whatever. I think that's what you're saying?

Oh, she's the waitress, huh? Yeah. Oh, fucking witchboard. She was Zarabat and a witchboard. Shout out to the geeks. We did Witchboard 1 and 2 for their 31 days of Halloween, and we're going to do tackle Witchboard 3 this year. I don't even remember that one.

I'm going to have to search for it because... I think that new one's supposed to come out this year. Another one? Yeah, the remake. what's his name is doing the remake uh think the guy that did nightmare on street 3

oh make me look that up um I got it Chuck Russell okay did Nightmare Nom Street 3 and the

blob remake who is in this um I know that the one guy that played what's the bad guy in Stranger Things, Vecna? I'm looking at the cast, I don't know any of these

people. I know he's in it, and then I know the one girl in it. She was the blonde girl from the new Jumanji movies. I don't even know. Yeah, I don't know who these people are. Can you hear me? Okay, yeah. I thought I I'd miced. Muted my.

Yeah, I'm clicking on these people, I don't know who they are. I think when you see them in the movie, you'll just be like, oh, let's watch them. I think there are people you're going to say you don't know their names, but you've seen them and stuff.

There's already a trailer. Oh, okay, there's a guy from Stranger Things. Is that what he's in? Yeah. Oh, I'm watching this trailer. I don't know, guys. Of course I'll watch. it but I don't like when they tried to explain more because in the original they just mentioned it and then all hell breaks loose and that's all we need to know.

They they try just they just I don't know I'll see it and yeah when does this come out. um it was supposed to come out last year uh doesn't say bomb on uh i mdb it doesn't say anything on the bottom i think it'll be out before uh october that's what i'm guessing
