Let's see what Google has to say. the new guy in Los Angeles high school does some singing and fights a hot shot over a disco dancer that's what it says an IMDB the new kid in the school must battle a gang of street tuffs after stealing a gang leader's girl okay that sounds a little bit better yeah it's way better this stars of course James Spader Kim Richards Paul
Starting point is 00:02:33 Moynes Monet Monique Matt Clark Claudette Nevins Robert Downey not junior it is junior
Starting point is 00:02:46 but he wasn't junior at the time Olivia Barash and a bunch of other people this was written by Fritz Kyrsch or directed by
Starting point is 00:03:00 Fritz Kyrsch written by And Jet Rink, Greg Collins, O'Neill, and Murray Michaels. Oh, Ness. When was the first time you seen Tough Ter? I saw this one that came out. Nice. It was one of those movies that's, hey, there's a new 80s movie.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Let's go see it. What got me into the theater was at this time, I didn't know who James Spader was. It's not like for you younger kids That know him as Ultron and blacklist And whatever that show he's on What got me in the theater was Kim Richards For those you that remember She is she is a Disney kid
Starting point is 00:03:53 She was in those escape to which mountains Return from Which Mountain And then the car She was in that with her sister Kyle and a bunch of other films. So she was pretty much a kid star. So I was like, oh,
Starting point is 00:04:07 yeah, now she's older. I always thought she was cute in the Disney films. She's older than me. So I was a little kid when I first saw. But when I saw, oh, my God, I saw the poster and she's in this.
Starting point is 00:04:21 I was like, God damn, she grew up. So I was all about it. And then so I went and seen it. And I liked it for what it was. And I didn't know who Robert Downey was. I mean, or James Spader.
Starting point is 00:04:34 And I was like, all right, cool. But after watching it, I have not watched this movie in a really long time. I forgot some of the stuff that I didn't like that was in this. And that was a lot of it. But overall, I took it for what it was. I did like the whole, those street tufts of L.A. and the new kid coming around. And then, yeah, I mean, that's all hell breaks.
Starting point is 00:05:01 loose. When did you first see this one? A couple days ago. Oh, it's always been like one of those movies that I probably should have seen and just never got around to. And I was like, fuck it.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Found it on Amazon. I was like, let's do it. I had a good time with it. I enjoyed it. I thought the characters were good. You get a little bit of everything in this movie. There's a little bit of comedy,
Starting point is 00:05:28 a little bit of romance, a little bit of action just a movie gets dark near the end you know people people's father's getting shot other people's fathers getting beat up obsessive boyfriend played by
Starting point is 00:05:46 was Paul Monet Monnez yeah Nick Houser which that guy just went zero to 100 instantly over the smallest thing It was good seeing young
Starting point is 00:06:02 Robert Downey Jr. in here. He was kind of the comedic relief. Kim Richards was looking good. I don't know. It was something about that long hair that she had long hair down to her butt. That long crimped hair.
Starting point is 00:06:18 80s style. I didn't like it when she changed it for the little dinner date at the parents' house. I was like he didn't go back to the crimp. I don't want the bad. I don't want the Disney's camera chicks. I could have probably did without the dance sequences because they were kind of,
Starting point is 00:06:41 they were kind of weird, especially when the street tuffs as IMDB puts it started was dancing and gyrating. I was like, you guys are not looking really tough right now. And some of that kind of stuff, I just, and it was kind of weird. Some of them didn't seem like they was from L.A.
Starting point is 00:07:02 or California at all. Seemed like they was New York Street Tuffs. Well, Nick and Frankie didn't seem like they were from L.A. It seemed like they were from New York. Yeah. Especially Nick and how he talked in his presentation. Yeah. And I couldn't be in this high school.
Starting point is 00:07:26 I couldn't. I couldn't be picked on by these street tuffs. Just some of the shit they was doing it wouldn't even fly. Yeah, I'd be fighting fools every day. But yeah, it was a fun watch. And I know there's a Blu-ray out there and it's going to be in my collection after this watch. Oh, it is. All right.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Well, I guess I'll get it too. For those of you do have Amazon, it's on there. And if you don't, everyone's got YouTube. It's on there as well. well. It's on 2B2. So, but you don't want any commercials, Amazon and YouTube is your best fit. But let me read the poster really quick. Meet Morgan Hiller. He's always been a rebel. Now he's about to become a hero, tough turf, where reputations are earned.
Starting point is 00:08:19 I don't think I want my reputation earned in this school because these guys were killing me. but shout out to Donald Full in love I think fully love He was He played Howard Those of you might know him as Mayor
Starting point is 00:08:38 Goldie Wilson Yeah From back to the future Yeah like one scene in this movie Yeah And Olivia Barash She was What's his name's girlfriend
Starting point is 00:08:52 And Repo Man And she was Emilio. Yeah, Emilio. She was even in a bunch of other films. Matt Clark as well. I mean, he's been in a billion movies as well. He's, his career's long.
Starting point is 00:09:07 And I like that he was in. I hated Morgan's mom, Paige. Or his brother. Oh. His a yuppie brother driving around on a BMW or whatever. Oh, the one that was going to law school. Yeah, and I'm like, come on, man, you can't help your family out that helped you. Your dad's driving a taxi cab and they're like struggling, but...
Starting point is 00:09:36 Which I like, they didn't tell you that right away. Yeah. That the dad was driving a taxi because I was wondering, this guy's kind of lounging around in pajamas a lot. And then you come to find out he's working nights as a cab driver. Yeah, this film, I mean, other than the street top. we see Nick and Frankie and the gang and they're all just doing what street tubs do and then in the main streets of LA just robin fools for whatever just to to be tough what's his name was in this as well he played what the hell's his name he was from American me he was a young version of a
Starting point is 00:10:25 um edward james almost i know what you're talking about yeah he was one of the um one of nix street tough guys he was a little mexican dude yeah he was believable yeah
Starting point is 00:10:42 uh i can buy nick if he was in if this if this was based in new york i could I could have bought his character a little more but um the parts that I didn't care for the dance scenes, especially the one at the end when the credits were rolling. I mean, these are little teenagers,
Starting point is 00:11:04 and they're just rolling into bars and clubs like it's nothing. And but James Bader, I think they were like a more upper class, but then they fell on hard times with the family because he was, we find out that he did go to private schools. but then his dad's business went under, so that's why they moved to, they, they were saying a bad neighborhood,
Starting point is 00:11:32 it didn't look bad to me. Yeah, they also said he, every school he went to, he got trouble in. Yeah, because it was just schools that they were making him go to,
Starting point is 00:11:41 because he said, I don't want to go to any of those schools. Uh, his brother's the, the hero or whatever. He's going to law school and living a good life. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:11:51 his mom seems to be more, uh, that's her favorite. favorite and Morgan is just the black sheep of the family. But what I loved about his dad, his dad was still cool with him. He didn't, he wasn't on him like his mom was. Like, you need to be good. You need to be like your brother.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Basically, and that's how much he's doing. But yeah, he gets to a new school. And he kind of meets the street tough. So he actually gets into it with one of them, Nick and the gang. they're trying to were they trying to rob someone and then yeah they were doing the Frankie was like the decoy
Starting point is 00:12:31 well that's right being the the pretty girl asking for change or something and they were gonna essentially just sneak up on them with with the switch blades and take his money yeah well that guy kind of deserved he's starting to be a creep because Frankie's standing there
Starting point is 00:12:48 holding her books or school books and he's looking looking at her up and down and all that So you can rob this guy. He's a creep. But while they're roughing him up, this is when Morgan comes riding in on his little 10 speed and kicks one of them and then rides out of the way. But before he gets away, one of the guys takes a swipe at him with an antenna from a car and cuts this like patch that's on the back on the back of his leather jacket. So he didn't feel it.
Starting point is 00:13:20 next day Morgan's at school he's just trying to fit in the street tuffs go to this school as well they see that hey there's a guy that from last night looks like we're going to school today yeah
Starting point is 00:13:35 because they noticed the the cut the cut patch in the back of his jacket so then they go they take his bike Morgan's kind of walking around and this is when he meets up with Robert Downey's character
Starting point is 00:13:52 Jimmy and Jimmy's trying to say Hey man I'm in a band and you should come out to the show tonight and I'm all right cool But then they hear cars Doing donuts In the parking lot I don't know where the school security was but oh well
Starting point is 00:14:05 It was uh what's his name was security From uh diehard 2 And that wasn't wrong Yeah I don't know where he went Because we meet him because he tells James Spader Morgan to get off the bike or stop riding his bike through the campus.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah. And then you don't see him anymore. Barnes was his name. Art Evans is the actor. Barnes from Dyer, too. So he runs up because he sees Nick and Frankie riding around on his bicycle and he goes up to them and wants it back. And they started out talking shit to him. you know, here comes one of the cars coming full speed at Morgan.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Morgan jumps out of the way and they run over his bike. So his, his bicycles toast. I didn't get this. Everybody's laughing at the second time the car came at him. He didn't even move. And everybody's laughing at him. I don't know. I thought that was kind of impressive.
Starting point is 00:15:17 I mean, his bike did get fucked up, but he didn't, he didn't flinch or nothing. Nope. So, but. And he should have used that switchblade did, uh, uh, uh, Jimmy gave him. Because Jimmy gives him a switchblade in class. No, this, this school doesn't even look tough. If it looked like, uh, the school in class in 1984, all right. I'd understand the switchblade, but this school looked like the karate kid school.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Well, they're, they're having. dance battles into disco. So, I mean, no offense, anybody likes disco, but the dance scene was a little little much for me. Yeah, so Jimmy takes his bike
Starting point is 00:16:02 and goes home. Oh, before, before he picked up his bike, one of the, Jimmy, or not Jimmy, Morgan had sunglasses on them. One of the dudes ran up to him and spray painted his face.
Starting point is 00:16:18 red but he just kind of shrugs it off he picks up his bike and rolls out and they let him go they don't chase somebody commences the talking shit and Morgan goes home and his mom gets into it with him because he's what's wrong you bike got nothing I can fix it and then she comes in and just immediately he starts yelling at him ah you starting this again and then dad comes in and kind of saves the day like that's all right so but We go to the next scene. We're in some warehouse club. And we got one of the bands from New Year's Evils in there.
Starting point is 00:16:58 No, this band's actually, well, the singer is an actually, he's a somebody. His name is Jim Carroll. He is a writer. For those of you that have seen or read the Basketball Diaries. It's a good movie. Yeah, it was based on him. This is the guy that wrote the story. It was based on his life.
Starting point is 00:17:26 He passed away, I think, 2009, yeah. I think he had cancer and he passed away. Because he did music. He was a writer as well and everything. So, but yeah, so the Jim Carroll, I don't know, it's a Jim Carroll band, I guess. Because he plays himself in this.
Starting point is 00:17:50 And these are all these are real songs. But we see Jimmy is the drummer. Robert Downey Jr. Robert Downey. What's his name was going, trying to get to the party? Because his bike is all beat up. He ends up stealing a, was it a Mercedes or something? Porsche.
Starting point is 00:18:09 Oh, yeah. Oh, that's right. So he goes in there. Everyone's at the party. Nick and the gang are there. Frankie's in there. She's looking good. Morgan shows up
Starting point is 00:18:21 and then all of a sudden the band kicks in and then we get a big old dance number like this was it was a dance number where Morgan grabs Frankie and then all of a sudden they get all the room in the world and everyone's doing these choreographed moves everyone yeah like the whole club
Starting point is 00:18:40 I could have did without all this but if anything I could have done with without Nick and all them dancing. Yeah, because Nick comes in and starts dancing. And these are all teenagers, so everyone's underage drinking. I don't know if that's really Robert Downey playing the drums, but all right. But Frankie doesn't really want nothing to do with Morgan, but she continues to keep dancing with them.
Starting point is 00:19:09 And Jim Carroll's up there wrecking, wrecking the stage. And then Nick and the gang, they see Morgan dancing, with Jimmy or dancing with Frankie so he sends a couple of his street tuffs down on this part was stupid he sends them onto it but they can't get through all the dancers all the dancers are swarming around them so and
Starting point is 00:19:33 I couldn't get through that choreography it's stupid it's the one little Mexican guy he's been in like a bunch of movies but he gets up to Morgan and then Morgan ends up to grabbing him and then they're dancing and then he throws a little Mexican guy to the ground. Yeah, like the dancing.
Starting point is 00:19:54 He can't do nothing about it. Yeah. Like headbutton or something. So Nick is still standing to doing nothing and he's kind of up high so he can see everybody. Morgan runs out of the room. Everyone goes chasing him and Nick starts screaming at Frankie. What are you doing with him? You're here with me and this and that.
Starting point is 00:20:16 so Morgan tries to get away but Nick and the gang they meet him outside they rough him up and then they steal his Porsche and this part was funny though because when the when those guys steal the Porsche Nick and them like yeah
Starting point is 00:20:31 then the cops roll on him the one Mexican dude he had no idea what to do he's like doesn't know where to put his hands he's about to put his hands on top of his head he's like what do we're lucky they didn't shoot him
Starting point is 00:20:46 but yeah yeah um yeah well uh jimmy came out oh man what happened sorry about your car
Starting point is 00:20:58 that's not my car and whatever so next of that's cool well Morgan and them are not Morgan Frank Nick and his two buddies they are locked up they like you get locked up
Starting point is 00:21:10 for a few days Morgan tries to talk to Frankie she still don't want none to do with them. Somebody has somebody in Nick's gang, puts a dead rat in Morgan's locker. And I don't know about you, man. If that was a dead rat bleeding all over in my books, I just said, look, man, I ain't touching any of this and left it alone.
Starting point is 00:21:31 But he cuts the mat, the mouth, the rat out. And his books are all bloody. Yeah, I think he was bad because I think he was his notebooks. So he always carries around and writes him. or I could see that but yeah and then Morgan's brother shows up and he's a yuppied out with the
Starting point is 00:21:52 polo shirts and drinking wine with his mom did you think because I've never seen this movie before it was my first time I thought the mom was fucking around on the dad the way her and the son were holding hands I did at first I didn't know this was another son
Starting point is 00:22:12 I didn't get any of that I was like why did she got this young dude just at the house like at school and then they mentioned he's the other son and I was like oh okay well I did see this when I was
Starting point is 00:22:32 13 14 so I wasn't thinking anything like that but yeah you can see the the relationship between the two brothers Morgan and his brother is not good because this is when he did tell him because his older brother's telling him like, come on, mom and dad did everything for you. And this is when Morgan looked, I didn't even want to go to those schools. And I actually don't love me and you're her favorite and that type of shit. So Morgan's like, yeah, he just kind of strolls out.
Starting point is 00:23:00 And he's, um, he was going to go somewhere. I can't remember where he was going. But he was sitting at a bus stop. And then here comes, uh, uh, the car, the, the Nick drives and boom. and then chases him down and Morgan starts running for his life and the car's about to run him over and then when the car stops
Starting point is 00:23:21 out pops Jimmy nobody tries to help when this is all going on to move to everything. Yeah, what is Jimmy to Nick? His brother his brother, I think
Starting point is 00:23:38 Jimmy's brother was either a mechanic or a friend's and Nick. That's how Jimmy got the car. So he was like, yeah, my brother got his car. So I'm here. Because that's when they told him, yeah, he's still locked up. So they're like, all right, what are you going to do? So they end up jumping in the car.
Starting point is 00:23:59 And they go taking off. They're driving down the road. They find Frankie and Ronnie. And hey, get on in. Because when the girls see the car, They're like, oh, Nick's out. So they pull up. And then they jump in.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Ronnie sees Jimmy in the back because she was kind of peeping him out at that show when he was playing. So she jumps in. Throwing it at him in the back seat. Oh, yeah. There was, I don't know what Jimmy's problem was. But she immediately jumps in and starts kissing his neck and his face. And Jimmy's just like this happens every day. But he sees little trippy.
Starting point is 00:24:38 He doesn't want none of it. he's trying to talk to Morgan and tell him to pull over and let him out. But, no, Ronnie's all over. Yeah, Ronnie's all over Jimmy. But Morgan and Frankie are arguing in the front seat. She's like, pull over, take me home. I don't want to be with you. And I'm Knicks and this and that.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Morgan's thrown there. Why are you with him? And then there's a montage of them riding around in Beverly Hills. And they pull up to some rich yuppie country club. Morgan Morgan has a nice I don't know sweater on or whatever so and he's got his polo shirt on under it so he takes a sweater off puts it on Frankie
Starting point is 00:25:18 she fixed herself up a little Ronnie has to just basically just button up her shirt and everything so they can look presentable same thing with Jimmy he buttons up his shirt and tucks it in and they go in and they're like what are we doing here we're going to kick us out we're not members and he goes well for but next 20 minutes we are. So Morgan
Starting point is 00:25:38 just follow my lead. We roll into the country club. I assume it's Friday, so I assume it's, they said it was Teens Day or something. Like Junior Night or something. Yeah, because you go on there, there's a bunch of yuppies in there
Starting point is 00:25:54 dancing around. Another band, more dancing. Morgan goes, they all go in, but then the guy that's running the desk kind of does notice them that they're not members, he kind of questions them, but they're like, no, no, we're good and everything. And they kind of just talk their way past him.
Starting point is 00:26:13 And then they go in, he goes, all right, just hurry up and eat. So they walk in and they just immensely start to start eating. And Jimmy's talking to other guys and Ronnie's talking to the yuppie girls talking about she swallows and this and that. Jimmy's stealing food. He's stuffing long baguettes down his pants. Yeah, I mean, like, you know, like. come on, man.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Don't be greedy. Oh, yeah, and everyone's in their dancing and no one's listening to the beat because they're all off, but there's, I don't know who this band is. He's in there,
Starting point is 00:26:49 but Jimmy's walking around trying to pimp on chicks and he's getting nowhere. Next thing you know, the band's like, all right, we're going to take a break. And then...
Starting point is 00:26:58 It's a scene that Lance would enjoy. Yeah, Morgan jumps up on the piano and starts, singing a song serenading Frankie and I think this is when she starts to get a little feelings for him. So Morgan's up there playing the piano and singing. He's no Stegman from class of 1984.
Starting point is 00:27:21 No. But I don't care who you are. If you can play the piano and get the girl, hey man, my hat's off to you. So I'll give it up to Morgan. At least that worked. So he's up there singing, serenading her and everyone starts dancing and then
Starting point is 00:27:38 when they're done with the song the guy comes up and basically kicks them out and they all leave so just more talking Morgan who are you and all my Frankie tells him that his mom had passed her mom had passed from cancer a year ago and it's just her and her father and Morgan's just trying to get it and then so the next
Starting point is 00:28:02 thing you know we get another big old the club scene another band playing more choreographed dance numbers that was not Kim Richards
Starting point is 00:28:14 doing some of that no no the more elaborate moves no that wasn't there but I don't know who this band is
Starting point is 00:28:24 jacking the somebody he's jacking the jack-offs or whatever I don't know his name's on the drum I didn't really make it out but these guys are on
Starting point is 00:28:33 business suits up there rocking I'll give it to the band is cool. I love bands that have horn sections. So they're all up there dancing and Morgan and Frankie start dancing. Frankie takes off the sweater and now she starts swinging it. Again, everyone, she's supposedly supposed to be a teenager in there and all these old men are checking her out. But yeah, that long hair, long crimped hair. Ooh, man.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Yeah, because she starts pole dancing, dancing on tables, dancing on the bar. I don't know where security is at, but I don't think this could would, would float. Yeah, it's doing cartwheels and everything on the bar. Even the singers singing, singing and talking shit about her. I don't know. I mean, did it need this many dance numbers in this film? No. What?
Starting point is 00:29:23 It's the 80s, man. What can you do? So if Frankie or Morgan ends up taking her home and Nick's there. And he's, ah! This is when the true color. come out of Nick. He's jealous yelling at her. You're my girl.
Starting point is 00:29:39 And no one else is. And Frankie does, you don't own me and all this shit. So there are you. And then Frank, then Nick comes up behind her. Oh, baby, I'm sorry. You know, I'm just love you and I'm mad.
Starting point is 00:29:50 And. Is this when he goes down on her? Yeah. He goes, why don't you just give it up to me? She's like, yeah, you know, I don't want to do that. I'm not ready for that. And all this. But then she just kind of lays there.
Starting point is 00:30:03 And they see, you know, he's kissing her neck. and next to you know he goes south of the border and she's grunting around and yeah all right well i guess that's all you're going to get um so the next day at school we see morgan he's uh just getting out of gym class here comes nick in the gang uh all of a sudden everyone just disappears out of the locker room and they don't know what's up and uh here comes nick in the boys and they got towels with padlocks and um all right if you guys remember uh pile getting hit with 50 guys hitting them with soap. Bars of soap. I'd rather get hit bars or soap than with a padlock
Starting point is 00:30:39 in a towel. They could have killed him. Obviously, they didn't hit him in their head. But he tries his best, man. He tries fighting with him. But then once he falls face down and these two commence to swinging the towels with padlocks in it, man. Nick's just standing there. And they fucking, they would have broke ribs or something. And, you know, yeah. Yeah. I don't want to know that feeling because these guys just worked them. And Nick finally just stops them and yells them, then I leave my girl alone or I will kill you.
Starting point is 00:31:16 No teachers. No teachers anywhere. No, no security, nothing. I assume that the security and the teachers are just scared of Nick and the gang. That's like stigman and all them. But anyway, so next scene we see Nick's mom and dad. and they're like, hey, where's Morgan? Is he home?
Starting point is 00:31:36 And they go, yeah, I think I heard him in the back. So dad goes in there as Morgan's kind of bandaging up his wounds. And then his dad comes in. That's what I loved about his dad. He's just kind of like just, what's up, man? How's everything? Are you all right? Is there something I can do?
Starting point is 00:31:52 And he's not like, ah, what the fuck? Ah, you done this before? He didn't go in there. He wanted to just talk to his son now. He was like, basically, come on. I know something's wrong. I can help you. But Morgan's like,
Starting point is 00:32:06 nah, it's all right, man. I got it. I can handle it myself. So his mom comes in. What's going on? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:32:13 No, nothing. He's all right. He's something he can deal with. He's okay. Hey, what's for dinner? So we go on all that.
Starting point is 00:32:22 But we go over, we get a scene of Frankie getting ready, getting all dolled up, no crimp tear. And then her dad kind of comes to the, to the door saying, yeah, Nick's coming over, because we get a big old montage of Frankie trying to put clothes on, dress up, and look. You see that she's trying to talk different, like, oh, I've had lobster so much that's coming
Starting point is 00:32:52 out of my ear. She's trying to be more sophisticated so she can fit in Morgan's world because she's starting to fall for him. But that's on her dad. Hey, Nick's coming over. and oh okay cool and then we hear uh morgan outside trying to play music and fucking get frankie's heart trying to be john kusack yeah reading stuff out of his out of his book and then he goes running up there and kind of goes into her room i mean i don't i don't know about
Starting point is 00:33:23 that i'd have bars on those windows i mean teenage daughter that can just crawl out her window and that right down from stairs into the alley um but she should trying to get him to get out of the house. He's no, I'm not leaving unless you come order my house for dinner. So she agrees with it. So she comes out. Nick comes pounding on the door. Hey, hey, Frankie, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:33:43 What's going on in there? And then she goes, wait a minute. Can I just leave my be alone? Nick comes in and as well as Frankie's dad. And then, oh, we're here for celebration. And Nick asked her, Frankie's dad, if he can have her hand. in marriage. And so they're like, yeah, here's some champagne for some of underage kid. Yeah. I was like, what, what year is this supposed to be?
Starting point is 00:34:11 Yeah. So, because Nick just pops open and he's powering the champagne right out of the bottle. But we see that Frankie's like not having it, but I guess she just didn't want to get into it with Nick. So next day we go back to school, Jimmy gives Morgan a new bike's in here. You're going to need this. he kind of finds out about Nick's proposal to Frankie. So he jumps on the bikes and hauls ass. He goes over and finds Frankie, what the hell? What the fuck? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:34:41 Why are you doing this? You can ruin your life? And she's like, ah, you don't own me. But while they're talking, a little Mexican guy from Nick's gang sees them. And he hears them talking about, well, you know you're coming to my house tonight for dinner. So, but didn't really think that it was going to come because they were arguing. but that night Frankie does eventually come over
Starting point is 00:35:05 and she's all cleaned up no crimped she's not all dressed all slutty so she comes over didn't like it um this is how she if you guys saw me both too she's also on that one yeah um
Starting point is 00:35:22 Kim Ritch's I love you but I love you sister Kyle more but anyway check out Cowherj's and Halloween kills and she's coming back for Halloween and so that's awesome Beverly Hills Housewives yes I watch that show so anyway so they're sitting there having dinner
Starting point is 00:35:39 they're trying to just mom and dad just trying to be cool but the mom's got to be nosy and oh we should go do this again bring your mom it'll be a party and then Frankie kind of just gets mad
Starting point is 00:35:52 and walks out of the house because they're talking about her mom she overreacted yeah she could like his mom didn't know Yeah. But she like just jumps up and leaves and then Morgan's mom like, what did I say?
Starting point is 00:36:08 Her mom's dead. And then she ends up strutting out of the house. But Nick and the gang were we're peeking through the window because they followed Frankie over to Morgan's house. So Morgan, Frankie ends up leaving and they kind of get into a little argument outside. Like I can't be a part of this world. I'm somebody different. So she ends up storming off. Morgan's all mad. He ends up walking away.
Starting point is 00:36:36 His dad tried to go out and talk to him, but he's like, nah, dad, it's all right, man, I can handle it. So Morgan goes walking away. Nick and the gang are outside. They see him. I don't know how Morgan didn't see them. Plus, that's, everybody knows Nick's car, and he just walks right on past it.
Starting point is 00:36:53 So instead of Nick and them chasing Morgan, they end up grabbing Frankie and kind of yell at her, where you been, where you been? Come on looking for you all night. So they tell her to get in the car and they're driving around and they're like, oh, we're running out of gas. We need some gas money. So Nick kind of followed.
Starting point is 00:37:12 I don't know how he found Morgan's dad, but he finds Mr. Hiller. He's kind of parked off to the side in his cab reading the newspaper, I guess waiting for calls or something. Because Nick pulls up, takes off this watch. Hang on, go over and ask that guy for. some for some money so we can get money for gas and she's like hey this is the watch i gave you and he goes like i know now go over there and get us some money so she when she walks over there
Starting point is 00:37:39 she she notices that it's uh morgan's dad so she kind of turns around and like well no this ain't happening but then nick starts screaming at her you're gonna go over there you're gonna do it because they know who who that is so she's like she tries to run back over there and warn him and tell uh mr hiller to to get out of there but Here come Nick and the gang. They come up and they tackle him. But Mr. Heller, man. He was no joke, man.
Starting point is 00:38:05 He was handling him. All three of them. Whop in the ass at first. Yeah. I mean, he was fucking him up. He was even fucking up. Nick threw him around. He's throwing the left and the right.
Starting point is 00:38:17 He threw a little Mexican guy over the car. Yeah. But then they kind of triple teamed them. And then they started roughing them up. But Mr. Heller came back, need. Nick, he clocked the other white dude, but then Nick pussy ass pulls out a gun and then shoots Mr. Heller twice. Because he was beating the shit out of him. He was holding his. So I don't know where he came from, but he was no punk. He didn't just get beat up.
Starting point is 00:38:46 See, he probably could have won this if the bitch ass didn't pull out a gun. Yeah. So Frankie's there. She's crying. Nick and the gang end up taking off. But Frankie stays there. And next thing we get Mr. Heller's in the hospital. He's alive. Morgan's there and he's trying to figure out what's going on. He goes outside to see his mom and she's kind of like, oh, it's all right. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:39:12 But then here comes Morgan's brother. And then she just like leaves Morgan and runs over to her son that she loves. And Morgan's like, ah, fuck this. I'm out. But he finds Frankie. And obviously she must have told him what happened and who did it. So he takes her over to his house and
Starting point is 00:39:33 she's, yeah, she was all beat up because she got a little roughed up by Nick because he's like a tendon to her wounds on her back and then one thing leaves another. I like you and this and that and the music changes. Next thing you know, I don't think this was her when he opens up her shirt,
Starting point is 00:39:51 but he commences to beating it up. And she does her first time. I don't know about his, because she never gave it up to nobody. So after he wrecks it, he takes her to her dad's store. He's got a corner store. Morgan rides off.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Big old smile on his face. I'd be smiling too. But anyway, she's in a Frankie's in there talking to her dad, and he's just kind of like, yeah, yeah, whatever. But then in comes Nick. And he's like, ah, mad. he pulled, he grabs Frankie,
Starting point is 00:40:26 starts throwing her around and slapping her and punching her. Frankie's dad tries to get in, but then he gets roughed up by Nick. He gets thrown into some shells and falls down. He doesn't kick ass. No, uh, Morgan's dad does. I mean, Nick was no joke, man.
Starting point is 00:40:43 I know he's in love and everything, but he picks up Frankie and then power bombs her right on the floor of the store. And then he just, he goes off and he starts screaming at her and she's crying and then they just grab her and take off um oh they call they call the Morgan right before yeah they um they made her uh call him but then when he answers Nick gets on ah you motherfucker
Starting point is 00:41:14 meet us at the warehouse I assume he knew where to go I think this was the the warehouse yeah this was the warehouse I was where the party was going on. So Morgan's there. His brother comes in, hey, what's going on? But Morgan's, fuck you, I'm out. He goes into his room. Earlier in the film,
Starting point is 00:41:35 kind of in the beginning, Morgan was laying in his bed. And I don't know about you, man, but roaches were crawling around my house. I doubt had done something about it. But it was roaches crawling around on the walls. But he did do something about it. Yes, he's two little dart guns.
Starting point is 00:41:52 He pulls him out and he shot the, the bugs, kind of blew them apart on the wall. But before he leaves, when he's yelling at his brother, his brother tries to get all around. Oh, what are you doing? You're going to be tough and you're getting past me. And then Morgan grabs his little dark guns and get out of my way. And his brother bitches out and Morgan takes off. But before that, he went to Jimmy's house, but Jimmy wasn't there. Jimmy's brother was there with his little dogs
Starting point is 00:42:24 And he writes a note and to here give us to Jimmy He's all right cool so he bounces Morgan goes to the to the warehouse He's looking in the window He sees Nick in the gang He sees Frankie kind of just crying off to the side And he ends up sneaking in Through the top window
Starting point is 00:42:42 Like a ninja Yeah And then the guys They all start trying to grab weapons and stuff. So Morgan sneaks in and one of the dudes is upstairs. Or because they heard some noise. So Nick tells him to go up there and check it out and he's holding like a pipe or something.
Starting point is 00:43:04 So when he comes in, Morgan sneaks up behind him, points the gun in his face and that guy stops. And then he kind of gets it into it with him. And he like knocks his fool out with his guns and then he ties him up. but before he ties him up, he's looking down and he sees Nick and the other two guys that Mexican do near little white guy. And there's these big like billboards in there hanging on ropes. And there's a rope right in front of Morgan. Luckily, that's the right one that's holding these big billboards. So he kind of does some trickery with that.
Starting point is 00:43:46 he makes some noise and everyone looks up and he triggers the the billboard to fall down crash on those two guys and they go down another dude runs upstairs Nick poor Morgan pulls out his guns his little dart gun shoots that guy with him and he goes flying down the stairs before he gets kicked down the stair he shoots him in the neck with the dart then kicks him in the in the face and he goes flying down the stairs Nick pulls out his gun starts letting rounds off at Morgan as Morgan's trying to run around. Frankie tackles Nick and they go falling around and he starts slapping her up.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Morgan grabs a robe, swings in like Tarzan, boo, booed Nick off the stage. He goes, I'm watching this, everyone. He goes falling down and he goes, and then Morgan comes up to him and kicks Nick in the face, kicks him off the stage. Morgan dives on to him Then they start fighting Nick's guys are still all crashed up under the billboard
Starting point is 00:44:52 And Morgan just starts Whooping Nick's ass Slamming him all over the place And beating the hell out of them I don't know why I didn't shoot him With his dark guns but all right So Nick's getting the shit beating out of him But before he throws in that last punch
Starting point is 00:45:09 His buddies come to They grab Morgan and then they double team him, start beating the shit out of him. And they grab them, slam around, and they're holding them, waiting them for Nick to get up and do something. Nick picks up his pistol.
Starting point is 00:45:26 He's these cocks the hammer. He's getting ready to shoot him. But then Morgan's just sitting there like, oh, so Nick starts socking Morgan in the face. Wow, his other two buddies are holding him. And he's getting ready to shoot him. But then here comes Frank. you know, what's his name?
Starting point is 00:45:44 Jimmy. Jimmy comes in and he's got his brother's Doverman pinchers. And then he lets the dogs go. Nick lets off around, hits Jimmy in the leg. And he, ah, he falls down. And then the dogs go chasing after the dudes. The Mexican guy goes running out with Doverman hot on his heels. And the other dude, the other Doverman attacks him.
Starting point is 00:46:07 So while that's going on, Nick and Morgan start going at it. and now they're beating the shit out of each other while the dogs are chewing up Knicks boys Now the white guy ran and dove out of window I don't know how high up they were But he dove out of window and then the The Doverman ran after him The other dude was high enough because
Starting point is 00:46:28 Later on there's only one Doberman that comes back Because the Mexican dude crawled up a pole And that Doberman's just trying to jump up and get him So Nick and Morgan are fighting. Nick knocks Morgan to the ground. He pulls a hole in knife up to Morgan's throat. But before he can cut it, here comes Frankie. She's got the gun.
Starting point is 00:46:56 And Nick, he's, oh, baby, come on. You don't want to shoot me and this and that. So Nick, like, scares her. And then she starts pulling the trigger and the gun's empty. So Nick gets up. He gets all mad. He's like, oh, fuck. Didn't Jimmy get shot in the leg?
Starting point is 00:47:13 Yeah, he's still laying there. Okay. So he didn't move. Nick knocks the gun out of Frankie's hand. He grabs her and starts choking her. Basically telling her, I love you and all this and throws her off the stage and she's all beat up. He's about to jump down. Or he jumps down and he starts clocking Frankie while she's laying there.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Morgan jumps up. He grabs Nick, slams him into the wall, looks at Nick. Frankie or Frankie and she's laying there. She's knocked out, but she's still alive. So Nick gets up. He grabs a 2x4 that's got nails at the end. And he starts swinging it at Morgan, but Morgan duck and dodges.
Starting point is 00:47:58 And then, well, Nick gets hit a couple times, but then Morgan grabs an axe. He breaks the 2x4. and then he's got axe and he's swinging in at Nick. He chases Nick up the stairs and Nick kicks the axe out of Morgan's hand and they start wrestling around upstairs and then Morgan just starts giving him the old left and rights and beating the shit out of him. Nick's crashing all over the place.
Starting point is 00:48:27 And Morgan walks up on him and starts beating his ass some more. And then Frankie kind of comes to, she sees them up there fighting. so he kind of turned Morgan turns his attention to to Frankie but then this Nick kind of comes to he picks up a pipe and he's like limping towards Morgan he doesn't see but then he realizes it then the Nicky's there and he turns around and kind of gives him the the grass punch with two hands and Nick goes flying backwards crashes through the railing and falls that onto the floor below.
Starting point is 00:49:06 did he die I took it as he died and nobody cared that he just murdered somebody so let's say the other dude that jumped out of the window died along with the other dog um because they never come back and I assume that Mexican guy is still holding on to the
Starting point is 00:49:29 to the rafters uh Jimmy's still laying there with a bull hole in him in his leg um Morgan looks over, sees Nick Lane there. We assume he's dead. Or who know? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:42 But he looks at Frankie. Then it fades to black. We go back to the club where Jack and the Jackoss are playing. And here comes Morgan and Frankie. She's all done up. The guy on stage, oh, here comes that girl again. And because they see her walking in. Yeah, the underage girl.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Yeah. And then they go into a big old, another dance montage. And this is when the credits start rolling. Jimmy comes limping in. I was just about to ask, was he limping when he came in? Yeah, he comes limping. I think he was on crutches, I think. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:50:24 They're showing the credits and the band's rocking. T, you F, F, you are so tough. Got to love 80s, boys and girls. but Ronnie comes in and these other old creepy men are checking her out and she's giggling around and the band is wailing Jack and the heartbreaks
Starting point is 00:50:44 I think that's what I said I like your name yeah Jimmy comes no he don't have no crutches he's limping in but he's got something on his lake and there's a big old huge dance number next thing you know
Starting point is 00:50:59 all of them Morgan, Frankie, Jimmy, and Ronnie are on the stage singing, and we see them. They got the instruments in their hands and Morgan's playing the saxophone. And I don't know. Guys plays every instrument. Yeah. And that's your movie. That's tough turf.
Starting point is 00:51:29 but I love this movie. It's goofy. All the dance numbers and the singing and everything. But hey, it's 1985. What can you do? It does have its moments where it gets a little dark because, I mean, Nick is beating up his girlfriend and shooting people's dads. But I think there's a little bit of everything.
Starting point is 00:51:59 thing in here for for somebody yeah uh again it's on uh prime or youtube or you can buy it for 1799 on amazon blu-ray i guess i have to get it um but yeah i mean it was i watched this last night and i didn't see it in forever and i forgot all the the dancing that was in this movie I don't see how you can forget all that. I do. I saw once in the theater, maybe one other time on USA Up All Night or something like that. But this wasn't one that I don't know. Including the credits, there's like three major dance scenes.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Oh, yeah. I mean, the whole song at the end and them dancing and singing and everything. But, oh, man. It's just 80s goodness for what it is. Yeah, it was minus the dancing and the little comedy montage. Yeah, like Brian said, it did get dark. And I was all dealing with Nick on his infatuation or his whatever, just being possessive. But if you're a fan of James Spader, Kim Richards or Robert Downey Jr.,
Starting point is 00:53:24 than, you know, check it out. You know, this is one of their first movies that they were doing or as young adults. Yeah, Robert Downey, he's only, he's in it minimal. It's not, he's not the big star that he is today that he was back then. This is actually his, okay, he, he's done some movies, but I think, some stuff was uncredited and I remember him in firstborn
Starting point is 00:54:01 if you guys have seen that and then this is one two three four five his seventh movie but the other films they had done before he was like just in it
Starting point is 00:54:12 he wasn't like the star because after this he does girls just want to have fun horrible movie and then weird science and then back to
Starting point is 00:54:24 school and then he he starts his reign of terror and then he just goes head over heels into drugs and jail and all that um then makes one of the biggest comebacks over yeah he did when did that one come out iron man man was 2008 yeah yeah well i remember when they announced it saying oh yeah Robert Downey Jr. is going to be Tony Stark. I was like, what? Really? Because he had done a few other
Starting point is 00:55:00 movies before this one, but it was out of jail, drugs and all that. But then... He did Tropic Thunder the same year as Iron Man. Yeah, I think they filmed that one before. And that wasn't... We didn't even know that was going to be
Starting point is 00:55:17 such a big hit. But yeah, I think Iron Man was the one that just brought him out of the darkness and then he turned into the billion dollar man from here on out um did he do he didn't do the voice in what if did he
Starting point is 00:55:31 uh I don't know there there was so many people that was supposed to do the voice but didn't no it does I don't see it I don't either Sherlock Holmes 3 yeah they're about to make that
Starting point is 00:55:48 I didn't even like to second one. Maybe I just need to rewatch it. It's not good. Yeah, all right. That's why it did. I don't remember. The first one was really good, but James Bader, is that show still on? Blacklist? I want to say yes.
Starting point is 00:56:07 I just haven't. Yeah. It's still going. I've seen parts of the first season. The last movie he did was Age of Ultron, 2015. Getting that TV money. Yeah, he is. good for him because he he's always been around but I didn't really think anything was huge until
Starting point is 00:56:29 blacklist I don't know but then again I haven't really been following his career that much but it was cool when I found out that he was Ultron I thought that was awesome blacklist I know I've watched a few episodes but I didn't never really got into because one of my friends she loves this show she keeps telling me watch it watch it watch it and I'm like all right his next his movie after this one i want to do when it's streaming the new kids it's not streaming anymore i thought i saw it somewhere no i picked up the blue ray okay but i thought it was streaming because it was going to be one of my picks but i can't find it nowhere now was that eighty five same same year

Starting point is 00:58:45 have you seen this one I've never heard of it All right. It's on Shutter. And I'll dive into it more when we get into it. But, okay. You guys have Shutter or AMC Plus? Because I think Shutter is with AMC Plus. If you want to see the widescreen version, those are the ones to watch it.
Starting point is 00:59:11 But if you just want to watch it to watch it, it is on YouTube, but it's full screen. So it's the square instead of the rectangle.
