Oh no, not now. What do they want? They want a race. Lange Maya. The kid from Greenlife. See, here's a good example. Two brothers, one speaks no English, the other learned how to speak English from watching the wide world of sports. You tell me which is better, speaking no English at all or speaking Howard Coasell.

Welcome back everybody to a brand new episode of THR Presents StreamPiens. I'm your host Brian. With me as always is my brother Ned. My brother, Nez, what's up, man? Yo, what is up, dude? What's up, everybody? We've been gone for a minute, but we're back. But you do got the regular show, so go over and check that out,

as well as the wrestling returns. We got another one coming, elimination chamber. Oh, got a lot to say about that one. I watch the Smackdown at work today, and I was like, Really? That's what you can do right before WrestleMania, but I'll talk about that later. There's a reason for Drew.

Really? Yeah, he got movie commitments. Oh, I was kind of hope. I'd rather have that that match, Drew and Randy, but

guess not. You know, they've been teasing Randy and Cody. You're to see the memes of like all the pictures of Randy looking at Cody's belt. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know what they're doing.

We'll see. Drew's going to go film Highlander. Oh, he's going to be in that? Yeah, with Henry Cavill and Batista. Is this a continuation or remakeer?

Remake. I think it's directed by the guy that did the first John Wick. Okay. Well, we'll see. Batista's going to be the Kerrigan. It can be only one. I'm more looking forward to Masters of the Universe. Let's see.

Yeah, that looked fun. Yeah, we'll have to do the original. before the new one comes out. All right, everyone, it was my... What did we do the last time? I don't even remember. The Stone Age. Ah, that's right.

You worm. This one was my pick. I finally started streaming again. It was gone for a while, but for those of you that have a YouTube premium, I'm streaming there. But this is the 1985 comedy romance classic

better off dead. Does it ever feel like everyone's got more going than you do? Oops. That everyone is smart. So you're Al Myers kid. Yes, I am. You look pretty stupid to me. Thank you.

You say the best skill in town just ran off with your girlfriend? Even your younger brother does better than you do? and that nobody even cares. That broke up with me. Oh, that's nice. Well, you might be right. But remember one thing. I haven't even been to New York City.

Nobody was ever. Better off dead. The truth is I can outskie you any day of the week. Oh, really? Yeah, you want to race. I'll take you on any day, sucker. Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way, turn.

All you need is just. I'm going to race, I'm going to lose, and I'm going to die in that order. And you'll never doubt yourself again. He's skiing on one ski! Better off death. That's a real shame when folks be throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that. An abnormal look at a normal teenager. Lane Meyer, a kid from Green Bay.

I don't know. Lane Meyer is a teen with a particular family and a bizarre fixation with his girlfriend, Beth. When Beth dumps Lane, he decides to kill himself. Making bumbling attempts at suicide outside his morbid endeavors, Lane spends time with his oddball buddy Charles and befriends Monique, a visiting French student. Lane resolves to race Beth's obnoxious new bow on the ski slopes with unexpected results I don't know who wrote that but all right I'm db after his girlfriend dumps him for a boorish ski jock a depressed high school student begins to

in in tempely attempt suicide which brings him nothing but embarrassed A France exchange student starts to change his outlook on life. This is written and directed by Savage Steve Holland. That name sounds familiar. What else is this guy brought us? One crazy summer. Oh, he did that one? Yeah.

Some Sabrina. How I got into college. I didn't like that one. Did you? I think I liked it when I. I've seen it, but I haven't seen that movie in like 20 years. Yeah, I saw when it came out,

but I just was like, eh, uh, okay. Was I think, okay, that was late 80s, 89. He did, looks like a lot of TV, a lot of, uh,

Nickelode and Disney, Disney stuff. So, but big time rush. Was that a band? I want to say, was. I think my daughter listened to all that stuff. But anyway, uh, better off dead. This stars the greet. John Cusack, David Ogden Steers, Kim Darby, Damien Slade, Diane Franklin,

Scooter Stevens, Laura Waterbury, Amanda Weiss, Yuji Akumoto Um Porky Chuck Mitchell Booger Chris Armstrong

and Vincent Chevelli I think that's how you say his name And This guy man Dan Schneider Schneider or whatever There was a lot of stuff

going on With this guy Dealing with all a Nickelodeon and the allegations of this and that. If you guys saw that documentary, something about the 90s or whatever, Nickelodeon in the 90s or something like that when all that crazy stuff was going on on those sets

and this guy was hiring pedophiles and rapists and everything. Oh, man. It was crazy. He did a lot of stuff, man. He was dentists. and I think he wrote Goodberger, which I love that movie, but this guy, I mean, I don't know what he's doing now.

He kind of just disappeared, but you guys... He needs to disappear. He was writing some weird-ass sketches for that, all that or whatever that little show was. Yeah, and this stuff was. He was writing some weird shit. The same... He's probably the reason Amanda

kind of went off the deep end. Amanda Binds. I don't know. I mean, I wasn't there, but just from what that documentary was saying, I can't say he wasn't one of the reasons. I don't know. I mean, everyone's different,

but he's only in it. Well, he's in it, but he's in it like every now and then. He's not like the main focus on this. The little kid. Damien Slade who played Little Paperboy Johnny

Gassper Bernini I don't know to say his name I've seen this kid and other things I guess was back to the beach

Is that streaming? He was the the son Yeah he was he was older He was like a little Greece or biker or whatever he was

Yeah he was He was hanging out with the bad guys. He wasn't down with Frankie Avalon and the net Funicello. Frankie, what did they say, yeah, the hair helmet? Yeah. What did they say? Oh, looking for some fine chicks down by the Frankie Avalon house. And his little brother, Scooter Stevens, his badger.

I know I've seen him And other things But I don't really remember If there was anything like Other than this I watched Small Wonder But I don't remember him in that

He was only one episode Tales from the Dark Side Is that streaming anywhere I remember watching that like late at night The show? Yeah Probably two or something like that.

That's what I would, I figure that or Pluto or one of those other ones. Brian, when was the first time you had seen Better Off Dead? I actually didn't see this right away. I watched one crazy summer first, and my friend was telling me the guy that made that and made the Southern movie with John Cusag. called Better Off Dead and he told me if I like that one. If I like one crazy summer, I would love Better Off Dead because it was the better movie. And I checked it out and I've loved it ever since.

It's got a who's who of 80s recognizable faces. It's funny. It's quotable. Yeah. There's all kinds of people in this. I mean, other than John Cusack. He was big. and Diane Franklin, she had a good run.

She's still out there doing some stuff. Amanda Weiss, I'm around up street. Yeah, she's been in a shit ton. What's his name from karate kid or cobra Kai? Chosen? Oh, yeah. And Porky, Chuck Mitchell, rest in peace.

And of course, Booger, Curtis Armstrong. Rest in peace, Robert Carrading. Oh man Yeah That one That one kind of Bum me out Who else was in this

David Ogden Steers Was he Was he MASH? Yeah he was in Mash Old School Cameo from EG Daily That's right

She was singing her song Oh no you weren't with us When we met her It was me Lance and Phil I don't remember what they were asking her

but we did bring up this better off dead and she kind of sang her little song really quick I think they were asking her I think they were there promoting that movie 31

she was in that yeah she was like the Harley Quinn looking clown chick chick I just remember her and uh devil's rejects

she was talking dirty on that word. Yeah, she was. Her and Otis, where she got blasted in the head. But they have this labeled as dark comedy, romantic comedy, teen comedy, teen drama,

teen romance, comedy, romance. Okay. I mean, this is it is a dark comedy. I mean, he was trying to kill himself. I mean, it's funny.

But then when you really sit there and think about it, I mean, it's not funny. I mean, you shouldn't do any of that type of stuff. Yeah, they were definitely making light of his attempts throughout the movie. Yeah, I mean, it wasn't once. It was like multiple times. He tried to hang himself and jump off a bridge and drink gas or whatever the hell that thing he made. and all kinds of crazy shit.

Over a chick. Well, obviously, didn't like him. She wanted to be with... What was that in his name? The ski captain. Was it Roy Stalin? Yeah. Yeah.

Because he could ski the... Was it the K-12? Yeah. But yeah, this is hell of funny. No disrespect to Amanda Wise, beautiful girl, but they were making her seem like she was like the best looking chick ever. Even like teachers were coming at her in the mailman, which was played by a Taylor Negron.

Yeah. Rest in peace. Different times in the 80s of boys and girls. Yeah, man. I was like, man, she even jumped in the teacher's car. Yeah, because I watched this with my daughter. And when that scene happened,

she was like, what? And I was like, doesn't make it okay, but it was different time. Yeah, I mean, different humor. You can watch and laugh, but a lot of this stuff,

nah, I don't think they could remake this type of thing. If they did, they would take a lot of it out and I don't even think they would go as far as putting in the suicide stuff and... No, they would take the suicide stuff out. They would

even take the little gag with the one roller skating cheerleader that was dating the entire basketball team. I don't even know if they'd even let that slide. Yeah, that and Badger hanging out with the

women of the night. His book How to pick up trashy women? How old was he? Well, maybe. You couldn't have been no older than that. Oh, man.

But yeah, there's a lot of stuff quotable in this thing. I mean, I've seen this. I want to... I know I saw... One crazy summer in the theater. I'm picturing myself at the drive-in watching this. It wasn't the main movie that we had went and seen.

We went seeing something else, but this was the second movie. So I don't remember exactly what we went and seen. But I remembered this one more because it was hell of funny. then that yeah the seeing this made me want to go see one crazy summer when that came out plus demie more was in that very young demi more but uh yeah once it started doing its cable run or any time it came on tv we would watch it so one of those movies if it was on i didn't care what part of it it how far it was it could be down to the last five minutes and i would sit there and watch it, but

this is one of those ones that was hell funny. But back in the good old days, we had this thing called the TV guide that had listings of everything. Not like now when you can just either stream it or look it up on one of those kind of guides on whatever those channels are and see.

But this one, yeah, it was definitely a late night to watch or a cable watch or even we rent I know we rented it a couple times during the VHS days. Do you remember when you had cable and they had

that one channel that was the TV guide? Yeah. And if you miss what you, if you weren't paying attention you had to wait until it came back around again. Yeah, you had to go through. Well, back then everyone, there was a lot of channels but not like now. I mean, there's like a billion channels.

Yeah, there was yeah it would go and ah then you gotta wait and oh until it comes back around again ah the good old days

um my friend had uh it was a cable channel it didn't last very long it was probably early to mid 80s it was called super time

some of you guys probably have no idea what I'm talking about let me see if I can look it up super time time cable or pay channel i don't know i think that's what it was he he had it and i remember it was on there let me see i put in super time and all i'm seeing is some kind of video video game there's nothing

nothing comes up but yeah anyway back there was there was showtime there was HBO those were the big two before cinemax and all that but every now and then they had these little low budget ones and there was one called

Supertime and I remember sitting there my buddy's house watching this on there but yeah this movie's hell of funny there's a lot of that guys and that girls in this in this film. It's like they, they, I assume everyone was just looking for a job and they just needed people.

And hey, you can be in this movie for like two seconds. But they had everyone in this. But yeah, this was just a story of Lane Meyer, a little high school boy doing his thing and his girlfriend and all the misadventures that he got into. was a super strange dude too it wasn't just him it was even like his family his mom was weird his dad

his dad was dad was dad but he always had this there was like a running joke um with his garage door and the windows and the paper boy would always come by and throw the newspaper

and bust the windows on the I would kick his ass, especially that it was in the beginning. He had like one window left. Yeah, man, hell. Knowing that the paper boy purposely threw it at that last window, I would kick his ass. And then come ask for $2. I would have asked for more than that. I was like, it was funny.

Yes, it's funny and everything, but I'd be like, hell no. I'll be calling up the paper or whoever he's, working for. Obviously, they know him. They know him by first and last name. Go to his house and kick his ass. But these are the days where the grownups and everything could grab you and punish you.

Even if it wasn't your child, I had a good old day. I remember getting hit by my buddy's mom. I don't know how many times. I didn't even do anything. She would just hit us. because I was there. I didn't do that.

I did it. You were there. All right. Yeah, this kid, man. Paper routes, man. Those are no... Do they even still print newspapers? I think they do.

When we first started doing this... This chant, this network, horror returns. I was working for a paper. Riding around, delivering. Yeah. Getting out, tossing them. I did it one weekend

My buddy D Rest in peace brother I miss you and I love you His girlfriend She wasn't going out of town And we had to do her paper route Saturday and Sunday We had her car

But something was wrong with it So my buddy was like Dude can you think you can get your mom's van I'm like I don't have no license My mom wouldn't give me shit so it was early in the morning i know we had to go get the papers like i don't know like five in the morning or something like that figure out they won't know they're asleep so took the van don't

steal your parents uh cars boys and girls but so we took the took the take the van we picked the papers wrapped them all up and drove around i could drive forward no this is in the beginning stages of me learning how to drive i could drive forward good i could drive never go good in reverse by the end but but that end of that weekend man i was fast and furious in reverse like it was like a champ so but that was uh my experience of delivering newspapers those big sunday editions oh man that was i don't even have those normal that was no joke with all that the inserts and everything and uh couldn't throw those ones we had to walk up and put them.

I never having to bag those for Black Friday. Yeah. They get the super big bags and put those papers in. Yeah, because I would get those just for the ads and everything, and I couldn't imagine those guys doing it.

I, back in the days, I was just, I needed money. My wife was, well, she was my girlfriend that she was pregnant, and I just needed jobs. I was working temp jobs, working anywhere. I was even the newspaper in the Bay Area.

And they went on strike, but they still needed to work. And I was a scab. That was crazy, man. They had to pick us up in a, like an underground garage in these black vans. And then they would take us to the paper place. And the windows were all busted out. so there was wood all over the windows. You couldn't even see inside the van.

As we were pulling up to the newspaper, then you, scabs and all this and all that shit. But I needed money. So I was doing anything and everything, just so I had some money coming in. But it wasn't my finest hour, boys and girls. I get it, man.

I'd be mad too. If people were trying to, if I was on strike and people were trying to do my job, but I was just, young kid then and I needed I needed money so I was doing that but I'll give it to all you

well again I don't even know if I assume they still do newspapers I'm not sure but I heard they well the ones up here like you don't even have to get out your car anymore you don't just toss it in the driveway I'd rather have done that

they they had like specific instructions. It needs to be in the mailbox. It needs to be on the step. It needs to be between the screen

door. I was like, at that one point we, go ahead. At one point we even give a fuck. We just threw them. Yeah, we had to do all that shit up here.

Or else though, if they call and complain, they mark it is not delivered. Yeah, because I know when my buddy's girlfriend got back. She had hell of complaints. And I think she just quit. She was like, what did you guys do? So we delivered all of them. We didn't have any

any papers left door. So we're lucky we did it. Yeah, so that little kid, man, he threw the newspaper. The dad raced out there and hurry and tried to get the door to go up before he hit it, but he got it up, and then

he just, he just hit the door. But then he thought he was all happy, like, ah, I did it, I beat you. And then he closes the garage door, and then it just breaks, comes down hell fast, and pox, breaks all the windows. I liked his little neighbor that we kept looking at him.

Every time he was always cutting the hedges. Yeah. but Lane's mom, she was, she was weird. The fuck does she be cooking? I don't know. I mean, she was cooking the craziest things. She was, um, boiling bacon. It was like green or something.

She, because he was eating, yeah, the dad was like, what is it? and he was like, what did you do with the bacon? She said, I'm boiled it. And you got Badger. He was like, what do they call them? Extreme couponder or whatever. Yeah. Getting all the box tops to get the prizes.

I liked how he would just cut, he would just cut the little coupons or the way of the box. tops or whatever off the backs of the the the cereal boxes and then the I'll give it to him whatever he did he would cut cut whatever off and then put it back the the cereal box back in the in the in the in the cupboard and the dad would pull it out push all the cereal would come for it out I was like how the hell did you get it back in there without any of it falling out and cereal comes in bags inside the box, but apparently not in this universe.

But then we got Lane. He's doing this thing, and he's got like a million pictures of his girlfriend all over the place. I bet. Hey, man, I mean, my wife wasn't always the love of my life, but. I never went this crazy for anyone. He, other than the pictures, he had all over the walls and everything,

and he had, like, her head on, um, hangers and hanging all his clothes in the closet. I was like, man, this fool is just obsessed.

I don't know. What did his dad do? Was he just go to the office? Uh, I don't, I don't think he ever went to the office. He was always home. Because his mom was a, was a homemaker.

Badger never said anything. He just kind of just sat around the house and did his thing. I think he was made, maybe he was a lawyer or something because he's later on in the movie when he sets us laying up with that blind date with his, I think he said his partner, his daughter. Uh-huh. Oh. I think maybe he was a lawyer or something. Everyone would always try to say stuff to Badger. He wouldn't do anything.

He would either just kind of give you the side eye or just like sigh and then keep on going. But Lane, his dad was always after him because he had some car sitting on, on his barrel. Badass Camaro too. sitting on the lawn in front in the front yard and his dad was always

telling, look man, you bought this car because your girlfriend liked him and it's just been sitting there. You ain't ever done nothing with it. He's just like a big tarp over it. But he was telling his dad,

all right, man, I'll do it. And he goes, but I'm going to go, uh, he was going to go skiing. So. And then then we're introduced to

their neighbors across the street the Smith's Mrs. Smith and Ricky and were introduced to Diane Franklin's character Monique

I'm not a Jew not or whatever I think I'll try to pronounce her last name French exchange student yeah and Ricky's mom's weird old too their big old

giant beehive the hairdo and Ricky's a little weirdo nerd the plaid pants and the big nerd glasses and rarely speaks and she acts like she can't speak English

but we don't find that out until later but I was thinking I guess you just sign up to excuse me to be a foster parent or whatever for these foreign exchange students but

yeah but I would think you would have to know that they know some sort of English yeah that's what she says later when they're when they're all having dinner the dad is kind of like she's got she's got to know some kind of English to

to be here but they didn't say anything but yeah lane is getting he's going on his trip and then he's driving down the road and this is when we're introduced to Yisukri and Chinri

To Chosen and And his brother, I guess And these guys like Speaking Howard Kossel Yeah They got They got a cool little I don't know what kind of car it is

But they had this big giant speaker On the, on the roof of the car And he's only chosen in my eyes he's the only one that could speak English the brother just he's the driver but uh later in the film

Ricky tells uh because when he's driving with um what the hell's her name Monique and Ricky they're like who are they what do they want and they go they want a race she goes he goes one of them

doesn't speak but the other one learned has speaking English by watching the wide world of sports learned uh and he talks like Howard Coseill to every time he's on the screen. So they wanted to race. And Lane is riding around in his dad's station wagon.

So they're getting ready to gear up to race. They're waiting for the light to turn green. And when the light turns green, they take off. But he has it in reverse and he goes crashing into the pig burgers truck. truck. He's only Porky in my eyes. But what was his name in this? Rocco, Chuck Mitchell.

For those of you that know who Porky is, have you seen those movies. You're making those movies today. Are those streaming anywhere? I don't think Porkies or Revenge of the Nerds or any of them kind of movies are streaming anywhere. No, I don't see

any of those ones. They made three Porky's movies. I remember they were streaming on Prime for a second, but wasn't Porky and Don't Answer the Phone? Did we do that one? Yeah. Oh, we did. He is in it. I think I bought that.

Yeah, Porky's in that one. Don't answer the phone. No, wait. Which is the one? No, did I do that one with you? Yeah. No, the one with the, um, you answer the phone and die. Yeah. We did that one. Yeah.

I don't remember what that one. That movie was crazy. Answer the phone and you blow up or some stupid look that. 80s were the best. But anyway, he lay backs up and he crashes into Porky. And then Porky's like, come here. Open the door. No, he goes, I'm going to activate your dental plan.

He gets all scared. And then Lane takes off and he ends up going up to the mountains to ski him and Bugger. What was Booker's name in this? He's only Booger, everyone. Charles. Charles DeMarre. Him and Beth.

I was always looking for some good drugs. Yeah. Can't do that. one. These are supposed to be high school kids and all they want to do is party and do drugs and teachers and dating students and all that. Bougar looks like he's clearly like 35 years old. Well, that's how they did it in these days, everyone. Yeah, these guys are all probably pushing 30 and they're supposed to be teenagers in high

school. Even, uh, what's that Jack's name? Roy Stalin. they are up at the ski resort because Roy and his, was this a high school ski team? I guess. They were trying to just get new, two new teammates on to,

yeah, they are high school. He was trying to get just new recruits or whatever to be on the ski team, but you had to go up to the ski resort and beat their times or whatever. whatever, to be on the ski team. We had a ski team in high school, and it was just nothing but the fucking snoddy-ass rich kids that could be on the ski team. Well, one of my buddies was on there. He wasn't snoddy, but he was a rich kid. But yeah, man, I mean, those guys, they acted just like these dudes.

Like, they acted like they were the shit, and they, like, ruled the school. for those of you the ski or snowboard that shit's expensive I'm sorry I mean I can snowboard I haven't gone up in a while but and the reason I haven't gone up for a while because it's expensive for lift tickets

even if you go on the cheap days but I haven't gone in a while but my grandsons they want to learn to snowboard so I guess I'll have to shell out the money I'm a cheeps kid everyone.

But anyway, so Roy's being an asshole and he's telling Lane to get up there and do it. And Beth, she's just ready to suck Roy's dick. He's like, hey, do you want to hold my clipboard? She's like, yeah. So she's, I'm like, oh, man.

Who wants to be my assistant? That was it a Bugger tried out of me He wanted to do it But he just looked at him And ended up giving it to To Beth So there they all get up there

They're ready to go lane He gets in his His little skis And he starts hauling ass down Down the mountain Yeah you can clearly see This is a real skier This ain't

John Cusay Can you ski or snowboard can't do anything that involves something that has to stand on or put on my feet I learned all

those things the hard way skateboard and roller skating skiing I think he was supposed to do it like the fact was to make time I think it was like a minute or under a minute he ended up getting it like a

minute and some seconds. But Roy's dumb ass, like, oh, sorry, too bad. He didn't do it. So he clearly made the team, but Roy don't like him. So they're like, all right, well, we're going to head home.

But on their way home, Beth decides to give Lane his walking papers. So this is when he starts to get all mad. I guess they were going out for like six months. So he's like mad and he's sitting there at the stoplight. And then here come the chin brothers.

They come rolling up. Looking at him wanting to race again. You put on welding goggles? Yeah. I like how the other guy puts on his racing gloves. And Lane's mad. I'd be mad too, man. He just broke your girlfriend, just gave you the boot.

Now he's getting ready to race. Yeah, he puts on his dishwashing gloves. his welding goggles light turns green he they take off he takes off too but porky is there again he crashes it instead of running in rearing him he he crashes uh into him and he crashes uh into him and he and porky still tried to get him so lane goes home and he's all sad and his his weird mom is doing all kinds of stuff walks in his mom goes how you doing he goes Beth broke up with me and she's like

oh that's nice and she's vacuuming so Lane just goes into this is I get it it's supposed to be funny and it is but suicide ain't funny boys and girls he goes into the garage and gets a rope or something

and ties it up to a extension cord and then he wraps it around his neck he's getting ready to do it but then he starts to have second thoughts and he's like what am I doing here? This is permanent so he's like

overthinking about it and then he before he can take it off from around his neck was his mom or his dad that comes he's in the garage his mom because she's vacuuming and she bumps the door yeah

he's on the stairs it's wrapped around a pipe in the ceiling. And then, yeah, she comes in and opens the door and bumps him off and then he starts dangling there. Obviously, it was rigged up to where

it's not really choking him, but I mean, there would have been no way. He could have did that, unless he would have started screaming, but I don't know. But anyway, he ends up going to the store of him and Booger, and Boogger's telling him, like, suicide ain't the answer. so he's just he's kind of just telling him to like come on man just get over get over it

yeah because he keeps telling him he's telling him about yeah man you're a good guy but roy stallin man he's like a hero he's like the only one they can ski the k-12 and then uh he's just telling him they're like all right man well i'm gonna do that if she he's telling boogers like If I can ski the K-12 and beat him, maybe Beth will take me back. And the burger's kind of like, all right, whatever. But back at their house, he got the dad and the mom talking, the moms are doing her crazy things. And dad is just kind of yelling at Lane about,

yeah, you need to get rid of that car. So, yeah, he's just bitching and complaining. This just reminds me of my, not my brother, my buddy, my buddy's brother. he had a El Camino I think that's what it was and it sat in the driveway like for years

I just remember seeing it sitting there and I just always remember his dad yelling at him to fix it or move it or get rid of it and my buddy's brother I was like no now I'm going to fix it I'm going to fix it he eventually did fix it

but it sat there I remember we were little kids And I remember we were teenagers By that time he got that thing running He got it running it up Just to get it out of the driveway and sell it But So Lane is just like

He's heartbroken But his mom Is telling him like You know what? Hey There's an exchange student across the street You should go over there And uh Introduce to yourself

His dad starts telling me Yeah they think they got her they got that girl for her weird old son. The mom, I don't know what it was. She made some kind of thing with raisins in it. It's like a green slop. I like how it gets up and moves off of Lance play. The mom and dad are talking about different people that had foreign exchange students.

Yeah, Lane is sitting there. poking at whatever his mom made and then it just slides off his plate it starts sliding across the table so lane is like all right man goes i'm gonna i'm gonna go to bed so he walks by his brother's room and his brother is uh fixing something uh with all his gadgets and uh it's like a little a ray gun or something so he his brother puts on those um

Terminator glasses the gargoyles from the first Terminator movie and then he turns around and he's a laser blaster and Lane is telling him

telling his brother like why are you wasting all this time on all this little kid stuff garbage so then he turns around with his gun and then fires it and it's got a

real laser beam that shoots out of it. He blows up a box on the table and he jumps out of the way. Does he just sit at home in his leopard pajamas all day? I guess. I want some of those glasses. I don't think they make them anymore. Those gargoyles. I remember they did.

Well, they were big and when Terminator came out. where was there i was i want to say Costco or something uh and i saw some in there it was right when i got with my wife and i was like oh i wasn't one of her to pair of these and she goes

you can't get those because i will hate them and you'll look stupid where were we we we were we we went some picnic and my buddy had some and i was oh dude let me see let me try them on i tried them on i looked at my wife and she just shook her head like take those off

I don't care I still want some they're probably hell of expensive now but lanes up in his room still daydreaming about Beth hugging her picture and all this

and then he starts to daydream about when he first saw her this is always a kind of this scene always reminded me of karate kid when

all the soccer saying Yeah, Daniel was looking at... What hell is her name? Allie. Allie, yeah. Lane's playing football, and he sees her, and he stops, and he's smiling at her, and they're laughing at him. But then Lane stops, and then the camera goes down. He's standing, and some people are having a picnic, but he's standing at, his feet are in their plates or their food.

So then he goes up and he starts talking to Beth. And Booger walks up over there and he starts talking to her friend. Again, these guys are supposed to be teenagers. But Booger walks over with his Budweiser can and starts to sit down. So they're just talking and then that's, this is how they start meeting up. how Beth and Lane hooked up. But he's still just like heartbroken and all this. And he talks to himself a lot through this movie.

He's just trying to just like seeing what he can do. Trying to come up with a plan to try to get Beth back. But all the same thing. Yeah, Badger doing this thing. Lane went to go feed the cat, so he went and got the cat food, but I don't know, there must have been a coupon or something on the box,

because when Lane pulls out the cat food, he goes, spills all over the floor. You notice when he pours it in a bowl, he doesn't even open the box. This is all the buddy. So the bell rings, so he walks up to the door, and it's a little newspaper boy.

And he's like four, he's like four weeks, 20 papers, that's $2 plus tip. $2 for a newspaper subscription. Everything was cheap back in the day. But he tells him like, hey, man, I don't have no money. So sorry. Oh, he said, he goes, hey, sorry, sorry, Johnny. He goes, I don't have, I don't have nothing on me. I don't even have a dime.

And he goes, well, here, sorry, I get you next time. to shut the door and then Johnny sticks his foot in the door and he goes, I didn't ask for a dime. I want $2. So he's just basically telling him like, all right, man, wait until my parents come back and then we'll give you

your money. But when he's sitting there talking and he pulls out, if he gets a switchblade, but it's one of those little switchblade combs. Do they still make those? My brother had one. I've always wanted one, but I never. I think they do.

it's one of those little timeless little gadgets you can get my brother got it at some little magic store so that's where that $2 came from for those of you that don't know so the running gag for the rest of this movie is

Johnny little paper boy comes it keeps coming out of nowhere and all he goes is $2 the whole time after all that I mean it's a movie

I get it why didn't he get it from his parents why was he chasing Lane the whole movie for his $2 $2.

So we're back at his school and this is when the teacher Mr. Kieber or Kerber I remember this guy he was in

fast times at Ridgemont High and he was also in the fuck of that movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze and the one that taught him how to kick a can Yeah the one that taught him how to

How to move stuff So I assume this was science class Or something because Bougars got a big giant jar With it I don't I think he brought that

him so oh like a dead pig or something floating around in there so they're all just doing the thing lane sitting there the teachers doing his stuff there's uh one of the dudes in the class one of the nerd guys was in uh 16 candles he was with the john keizak uh his buddy i think they were brothers in that movie but anyway they show him really quick when the camera's panning around the classroom. So Lane is just kind of sitting there doing this thing, and then the teacher starts asking for people to answer the question, and then he turns to Lane, and Lane's all scared,

and he doesn't want to talk to him. And everybody in this class loves this class. They think the teacher is funny, everything he's saying. He's asking people to go to the Blackboard. Everybody's raising their hand. Yeah, he figs Lane. Elaine walks over there. I think it was math class

because they're doing some big old giant math equation or whatever. But he goes up there. Beth is up there and she's doing her thing. And there's a bunch of little running gags in this whole movie.

He goes up and he's writing on the chalkboard and he goes, make that loud screech noise. Did that ever bother you? No. Me neither. I mean, some of my friends were like, ah, I hate that sound.

I mean, it never really bothered me. But when he does it, everyone goes, then the camera goes to the crowd or to the classroom and everybody's hair is sticking up. So he's up there trying to do the equation. Beth is up there as well. I did like this part. It was funny because when he's sitting there

writing his equation, he looks, up and it's like this big huge giant chalkboard. So he starts doing his equation and he really doesn't know. But then he starts thinking he does, has a flashback of him and Beth. They're in the back of the station wagon. It's a odd time to have that kind of flashback. Yeah.

Why you're doing an equation. and he was getting ready to beat it up in the station wagon but when the camera goes outside these guys stole their tires from the car left his shit on blocks

and while he's in there I guess he's trying to put a rubber on and he said it broke so she's like yelling at him and he's like she's yelling on dude he's like why fuck I don't know She goes, what do you know what that means?

And he goes, well, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. But then he spins around the classroom, yelling, I'm sorry. And then everyone was just looking at him. But whatever he was doing, it's supposed to do the equation, handed up drawing like a fat pig person looking sad with an arrow. And it says pointing to his stomach and it says baby. And then Beth, looking at him as well.

But then when they're trying to, everyone's leaving. And then the teacher's kind of like, hey, can you stick around? I want to ask you something. And this is when the teacher asks. If he, he asks, he goes, this is a bit awkward. And he's going, yeah. And he goes, well, he goes, I've heard a few things.

And this is the teacher saying, Elaine. And he goes, um, and I was wondering, if you, if you would mind if I took out Beth? And then Lane just looks at them all shocked. All right, everyone. Again, this is a different time. So, uh, I, I know there's a lot of this type of stuff in that in real life with teachers hooking up with students and all this. Against the law.

but in the 80s it was it was funny and then we go to the lunchroom and we got Ricky and Monique sitting there and Ricky's got his lunch

and he's just trying to Ricky's got all the lunch he's got a tab he's got a chocolate milk and jello and cake and all kinds of other shit but she's just looking at him he starts slurping up his uh his jello with a straw and monique she's just like just disgusted and just doesn't even want to be around him so she looks over at booger and he's sitting there and he puts the straw in his nose and he starts snorting up

uh jello uh uh don't ever do you know try this boys and goes, I never did it, but one of my stupid friends did it one time. He was sitting in the lunchroom and he had a straw. Someone said, do you? I dare you to snort that jello and his dumb ass did it. Chris, crazy guy. Yeah, he's still with us too. I don't think he does crazy shit anymore. He's got like 10 kids and been married like five times.

But when we were kids, he did a lot of stupid shit. and this was one of them trying to snort jello so the boogger's sitting there and everyone's looking at him laying he's just sitting there drawing uh drawing pictures he was also an artist in

the other movie one crazy summer yeah the same same exact artwork yeah so whoever that artist was uh went over to that movie but then uh we see Beth sitting over at another table

and what's that guy's name, Roy? Yeah. He's over there strumming on a guitar and can't even sing. He's not even holding the chords right.

So Lane is sitting there drawing pictures. He drew Beth and there's a big old giant monster and he just ate Roy. But then while he's looking at the pictures, it starts

talking and it turns into a little animated thing because the the Beth character's talking and what are you doing that's sick? And he's like, no he goes, it's not sick, I love you. How could you dump him for me? And she just starts talking shit to him.

Just basically tell him that you're nothing. You can't do anything by yourself and Roy can ski the the K-12 and he starts going, he's yelling back at his picture at her, said, any girl here would want to go go out with me.

And this is when the whole basketball team comes walking by. And the one cheerleader. Why is she on roller skates? I don't know. But her boyfriends are the whole basketball team. And, nah.

He can't do nothing like that today. So his ideas, he's going to try to get on the cheerleader that's on the basketball team. So what he does is he goes over to somebody and takes the roller skates. And she went to go get milk or something, the cheerleader. So he skates over to her and she's standing in line. he comes running over and then crashes in there and starts talking her and he's trying to talk to her and everything but then he's got to fucking terminator standing behind him

he's like right up on him like he's gonna do something so he's trying to talk to her but she don't want none of it and then he goes skating after her but he can't skate he's falling all over the place she's standing there talking and then he slips and falls and grabs her her little cheerleader outfit and pulls it off and she's standing there in her underwear

and then the whole basketball team comes and I assume they whipped his ass he's all beat up nose bleeding and everything and he goes to his car after school he looks over and he sees his teacher

driving by with Beth in the passenger seat different times again and from what I understand now watching things on the news you can't even you can't teachers and students

can't even associate with one another especially alone because I was like that one chick and weapons she gave that boy a ride home and got in trouble for it no go these days

uh-uh So he sees her riding off down the street. And then Lane's, he's all mad. He goes up and he's getting on the, he's getting ready to jump off a bridge. And then Booger comes up and starts talking to him. And he's just telling him like, just, what are you doing? And he's like, he's like, he's just getting ready to end it.

But yes, it's funny, but suicide isn't funny. funny everyone. I know after he jumps in, Eric gets knocked off and falls in the dump truck, the next thing's funny. Yeah.

They drive by those two guys, two black guys, and there's like, somebody threw away a perfectly good white boy. Yeah. He did do this stunt. I don't know if he jumped

into the garbage truck, but he was dangling on that bridge. Yeah, because Burger's like, all right, man, here, up little camper and he taps him on the back and he goes falling off into uh luckily that garbage

truck was riding by and then shout out to that stunt man yeah he's sitting there in that junk truck waves at the two black guys that are like pruning the trees and he goes man that's a real damn shame when folks throw away a perfectly good white boy i've seen these guys and a bunch of things. Was that JD's revenge that guy? No, no, no, no. That's someone. That was the teacher from

Gremlins. That was that JD's revenge. You see that one? One of those old school black exploitation films. Steve Williams, he was the tree trimmer. he's been in a ton of shit he was uh uh well was it um what the fuck is he was something duke and stupid ass jason goes the hell um oh crating duke yeah that was him ha ha jason goes to hell what did that guy say in that movie

thinks of a little girl on the pink dress sticking a hot dog in a donut or something I was like, what the fuck is happening in this movie? Oh, Jason goes to hell. I think that documentary's out on blue right now. Is it? I think so. But yeah, that guy, he's been in a ton of things, but yeah, Jason goes to hell is the one that popped up.

I just remember Duke. I couldn't remember his first name. The only man in the entire world that knows how to kill Jason more he's just I haven't seen to do it shout out to Adam Marcus he was a good guy to talk to

we still gotta reach out to him he said yeah man come on your show oh fuck if you love that movie all right but I that movie man makes me want to fight ruined my my hero

anyway so the he's back up in the mountains him and uh bugger up at the top of the hill and he's just trying to convince himself to do the K-12 and Boogger's dumb ass is sitting there

on the ground making piles of snow and starting to snort snow This is high quality shit. It's everywhere. He's really, he got some fat lines on his little top hat. It starts snorting the snow. That's crazy, man.

That's just like just sniffing water. Don't sniff anything, boys and girls. Yeah, so he's sitting there talking shit to him. And he's telling him, he's looking, man, just don't. do it, man. People die going down this hill. He's like, I got a. And he's trying to do this just too, so he can

impress Beth and try to get her back. All right, boys and girls, I'm standing my soapbox anyway. If someone breaks up with you, female or male, whatever, don't go out of your way to try to do stuff like this to try to get her

back. Was I dumb like this? Of course it was when I was a kid, but no. But I do remember sitting there when we were watching this for the first time. I was like, well, you're stupid. What are you doing? There's a bunch chicks out there, but

that's me. But he was only with her for six months. So lifetime for him. I guess. He's well, they play

it off like Beth is like the greatest thing ever. She's a beautiful young woman and a beautiful older woman. I met her once at some horror convention and I was talking to her. And all I can see is Beth when I talked to her. She's been in a shit of the movies. But I was like, man, when I meet famous people for like this, like this, like I said,

I only saw her as, as Beth, as I'm talking to her and as I'm just looking her in her eyes. She aged well, a beautiful older lady. Anyway, if you guys ever get to meet Amanda Waze, yeah, definitely go up and talk to him. So, when they're up here, burgers like, Lane's like, come on, man, just give me, help me out here. And he goes, all right, let me tell you what you do. And he's the booger starts looking at him. He's like, go that way. Really fast.

And if something gets in your way, turn. He says, thanks, coach. All right. Obviously they took the ski lift all the way to top of the mountain. And those ski lifts don't stop. I was like wondering, why was Booger up there? What did you do, jump off? Because when the ski lifts go, man, you got to just slide right off.

It doesn't stop and let you off. But I'm overthinking this movie. So anyway, he puts on his welding glasses and then he's like, fuck it. And then shoots down that hill. I've gone down some black diamond slopes. And that was stupid. I was on a snowboard. I don't even know how to ski.

And I was just like Lane. I was falling down this thing. Those are crazy. Don't, if you're a skier, snowboarder, don't, don't do, don't go down runs that are above your skill level. I thought I had it. Nope. It was stupid. I never did it again.

But I like this, because he just goes falling down to hill screaming. And then, Bougar, like, all right, now turn as he's just rolling down the hill. Back at his house, Elaine's dad is refixed the garage door. It's during the Christmas time, so he has a big old bow. Like, is that your wife's present? The garage door? But all right, that's something stupid I would do. She was happy with it.

I bought some tires for my wife's car at the time. And when Christmas came, I just put a bowl. on it. She had had the tires already. I said, those are expensive. Merry Christmas. She just looked at me. Anyway, so he's lanes upstairs and he's trying to call Beth

telling her that he's got gifts for her but she ain't having it. So back downstairs. His family's opening up their gifts and then they're also uh but they the mom is nuts

she wrapped uh tv dinners frozen tv dinners hey with the way she's cooking that that's a great gift right there a badger got a toy so he's doing his thing his mom just bought a bunch of TV dinners and wrapped them all up. Hey, I like TV dinners, but I got to buy myself because my wife's like, she refuses to buy those things. I buy them because I take them to work because it's easy, quick and easy. But these, in these days, these are the ones that came in, like, aluminum trays. So you had to put them in the oven. Yeah. Not like now. They're better in the oven anyways. I think so. I mean,

With microwaves and all that, it's just the quicker, easier way. But I discovered the air fryer. We had one forever that just sat on the counter. And then one day I used it. And now I'm like, that's how I make all my fries and tots and everything else. I watch all these crazy videos of people cooking shit and air fryers. I'm fine, just air frying tots and fries and cheese sticks. I'm not trying any kind of fancy gourmet shit

Or air frying my hot wing Yeah my hot wings Anyway badger's sitting there He got cool presence man He got the old school Marvel Secret Wars Toys and then he got Buck Rogers

Robot Twiggy It was an inflatable one It was just sitting there But then we go across the street To Ricky's house and Ricky's being a weirdo and his mom she's got uh they're giving out gifts to um to Monique and she gets a picture of uh Ricky and he's it's just like a crazy-ass look on his face

and uh Ricky's mom reminds me of uh uh My friend's aunt. She was like this. All weird and loud. Always had a cigarette in her mouth. Big old crazy fancy hairdo. Yeah, she didn't. Where is this supposed to be in Milwaukee?

No, they're in L.A. L.A.? She did not seem like she's from L.A. She's like back east. Big of New York or something. Yeah. Because she's also in Better Off Dead. Not Better Off Dead.

one crazy summer. She's got like a really quick scene. It's in the beginning. Crossing guard. Yeah. She wants to tell those little girls, you guys make that face. Someone slapped you in the back of the head.

Your face is going to stay that way. I don't have to find that one. I love that movie. Have a dying friend that opens up her, or Monique opens up the picture of Ricky. There's mom like, you can take that wherever you go and always remember you're trip to the United States

and the rig and she's just looking at it like what the fuck and then we go back to Lane Lane is sitting in his car smoking a cigarette with that little bear gift that he was going to give Beth but he's sitting in the garage and he's got the car running

and all the fumes from that and just trying to take himself out. But back in the house, his mom's bringing out more crazy-ass gifts. And she got her husband, Lane's dad, a little crazy, fuzzy jacket, but it's made out of art vark. Yeah. She's got a crazy-ass reindeer suit on. So.

He puts it on, and then she puts the hood on, and it's a big old ArtVar head on top of it. So we're back in the garage, and Lane is, the fumes is starting to get him, and he passes out. But he passes out, leaning forward on the steering run, I guess his elbow comes down, hits the gear shift, throws it in reverse, and then goes crash, through the garage door. Well, the new garage door. Then his dad just gave... Well, his dad went out there to show his mom.

Oh, here's a... Merry Christmas. But then Lane comes crashing through the door, destroys it. But... The neighbor... The dad and the mom look over and they see the neighbor that's next door. He's got the same

art vark jacket. her coat on and they're just looking at each other. She did tell him everybody's going to have those. But the door is destroyed. And then this is, uh, what's this guy's name? I'm the man. He was the,

the liquor store guy. Put a little insanity on your potato. Yeah. Get him on the dance floor. Taylor, uh, is it Negron? Yeah.

Yeah, rest of peace. He shows up. He's the mailman. I like how he's just walking around, opening people's mail and dropping mail. And he walks up and he rings a doorbell. And he opened up the package. And it was a book.

And Badger opens the door. It's the book. He goes, Your book, How to Pick Up Trashy Women came to day and he goes tell me something what's a little boy like you doing with big boy smut like this and then badger just grabs it and shuts the door and then he rings the doorbell again and then lane comes to the door and then he tells him he goes elaine answers he goes yeah i'm just wondering he goes uh i mean i know that uh we don't know each other but i know you are going out with that

girl Beth and I could see that you're not going out with her anymore and I was wondering if perhaps I could just be with her and then Lane just shuts the door again different times he's probably pushing

30 and what is she supposed to be 17 maybe 18 yeah I'm not say if that so Lane's all mad he goes back in the house and his dad is sitting there and he wants

to talk to him and then what he started talking about? Oh, he starts talking about dating other girls but he doesn't want to. He keeps telling her because I want to date Beth. And then this is when he hooked him up

with what was her name, Joni Ann, Joanne Greenwald. He must have must be a lawyer because it says when he tells the name Lane's like your law partner's daughter so yeah

I guess his dad's a lawyer but he tells him he goes yeah that's her and he goes yeah that that's her and then Lane's like the one with the big old antenna on her face she shows up and

it's not an antenna she's got a head gear on for her braces oh no he ends up going to her house excuse me they don't do this anymore thank goodness but back in the good old days

when you had braces I don't know what it was for I never I never had this knock on wood it was like this big head gear if you guys have never seen this and you watch this now and you see this girl come to the come to the door with the the all that head gear and this and that and wire sticking out of her mouth they really did this

back in those days because i remember uh there's one there's one guy at school he had that on it went it it kind of covered the back of your head and then it came down the sides and the the wires would hook to your braces. I don't know what that did. I assumed it just made your teeth straight or whatever. I don't know. I never really understood what the headgear

did. There was that one. And then there was another one that just kind of went behind your neck. Same thing. And then it would it hooked to your teeth. I assume it just helps straighten

them out. I don't did they really need to attach it to your whole head? Maybe back then they didn't know really how to do it or this was the beginning stages of how to fix your teeth because now you just got those little things you just stick in your mouth like a mouthpiece

I've seen those don't even look like there you have anything in your mouth. Yeah, Envisal lines. Yeah. But they still do the braces where it's attached to your teeth.

Oh, there's a there's a gal at work. She's got braces. I was trying to think, who do I see? You just had braces. One of my friends, too. She had a little snaggle teeth.

This is her words. and she had braces Like Some of the her teeth weren't very straight They were it was like Like some of her teeth were in front of the other ones So she got braces And now they're all

Perfectly lined up and straight So I assume it Pulls the teeth forward or back I don't know how it all works I mean My teeth aren't the greatest I need to go to dentist But yeah

it's funny now in this movie but this chick yeah she comes to the doors he's like okay pal let's get something straight I don't want to go out with you and you I'm just doing this for a favor for my dad right and he's like yeah because he's like now Joanna I know you're happy to be with me

and she's like right and he goes so we can go out and she goes let's make um let's make it a whole lot easy on ourselves, shall we? And then she starts, she busts out her calculator and he goes, now first we can have, uh, what's to say? I'm reading this, everyone. Now first we could, uh, have, we can go to dinner and that's, uh, 10 bucks a piece unless you're a cheap skate. Uh, but I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. All right, really another real thing. Uh, the back in the,

back of the good old days. Calculators were thick. They were like big books. Not like now when you can just pull out your phone and do it, but they were hell of thick. They were big giant calculators. And then as the 80s rolled on, they got really thin and they were about the size of a credit card, some of them. I remember some of those like if you open up a bank account, they gave you a free little calculator with it. But then she says, oh, she said that about the the dinner and she goes, I would have ordered double desserts, and that's $22 altogether.

Tax a tip. Tax a tip is $25. And he goes, making it a grand total of $26 and $37. Oh, she's got one of those calculators with the little paper. The receipt paper.

And she's like, never supposed to go half. So they're like debts. So half so a approximately 1367. What did she say? She goes, oh, now, why don't you just give me that 1367, and we'll call it a night?

And then he breaks out his checkbook and writes her a check. And then we go to Badger, and he's reading that book. This is what the cover says, The most amazing book you'll ever read, How to Pick Up Trashy Women. He's sitting there reading it, just eyes open, and this is when we get the great E.G. Daily. They're at the high school dance.

And she's singing the title song, the title track, Better Off Dead. E.G. Daily does have some albums out there. What came out first? This or Valley Girl? So this was 85. I want to say Valley Girl was 84? 4 or like 84 Valley Girl movie The real one

The 83 is on that one came out So this was a Two years Later Valley girl I love this movie What's it on I know that on DVD somewhere

Or Blu-ray somewhere But If you guys haven't seen Valley Girl The original 83 Valley Girl Not that fucking bullshit remake movie Which was trash

I hate that movie It was a musical too Ugh And I know you're a musical So I won't make you watch it But anyway She's up there singing her hearts out Better Off Dead

And everyone's out there Just dancing their ass off The good old 80s Style with the popped up collars And the big hair So Bougar and Lane are just Sitting there at the tables

And boogers are Lane's all miserable and EG Daily's up there rocking the mic She beautiful young woman and she's still beautiful now We met her hell is super cool I never realized how short she was Until we met her

But she was a cool Cool woman You ever get to meet her go talk to her Plus she was Doddy in that classic Pewee's big adventure Rest in peace peewee So while they're sitting there

And then fucking Roy comes up and starts talking shit. Well, you guys got my vote for best couple. And then he looks at Bougar, it tells me, because you better make sure you shabber before you kiss her good night.

And then Bougar just fucking starts laughing his ass off. What the fuck is Bougar's name? I keep calling him Bougar. Charles. You notice the guy standing next to Beth has a Freddie Kruger sweater on it? Oh, he does, huh?

Yeah. Was this? How many else street was what? 84. 84. Yeah. Maybe he did that on purpose. So EG's up there singing her ass off.

Laning those guys are just sitting around. Buggers laughing his ass off too at that stupid joke. And then we got Ricky and Monique on the dance floor. And Ricky's out there just doing his thing, trying to have the best time. He's dancing so hard and then he just, everyone just clears a whole circle for him to start dancing. And then he just pushes Monique away and then he starts going for his, well, this crazy-ass dance moves.

As everyone all backed up, I like his suit. And then, fuck, I hate these kind of couples. You got Roy and Beth slow dancing to a fast song. Another quick memory of mine. My buddy started going out with this one girl in school. And they did this stupid shit. I remember we were throwing ice and everything at them. They stood and slow danced for every song.

Even the fast songs and everything. And I was like, I bring it up to him still. I'm like, dude, you look fucking stupid standing there. While we're out there dancing hard and you're slow dancing with some girl that was that only liked you for like a couple days. Ah, good old days. So they're all still laughing around dancing and Ricky's going for his. And what the hell did you do? He just dove and he's just laying there flat on the face.

I don't know what he was trying to go for. I thought he was going to dive into the worm. He just went face down and then everyone just started dancing. He's still laying there and everyone's dancing around him still. But Lane gets fed up. with it all. So he's just like, fuck this. I'm out. So he starts walking out of the dance.

Everybody's in there slow dancing. EG.'s still going for hers. But when Monique walks outside and she sees Lane, so she kind of says, oh, did she go after him or did she just walk out? I think she went after him.

Yeah. Because she walks up to him. He's running up the stairs and she like trips him or whatever, so he falls. She's speaking. speaking French to him. And he's kind of like, oh, hey, hi. You're that French kid. And so she looks at him and she's like smiling and

and Lane's trying to just talk to her. So she's speaking to her to him and French. But then Ricky comes running out and he sees her. So he goes running. He comes running out with a balloon. I like this part. he comes running up to Monique. He's holding his balloon, but then the balloon flies away. He jumps after it like he's going to grab it.

Wow. She's shaking Lane's hand, and he's like, Monique, I like, I don't know where you went off to. And then so he's standing her, but he's telling her like, yeah, mother wants us to, she's going to pick us up at the entrance of the school and she'll be very disappointed if we aren't there at the entrance of the school and then uh so she's still shaking lane's hand but lane just tells

like hey rickie why don't you just go uh wait up there uh and with your mom and uh let me finish talking uh to her so rickie tells him because you should not upset mother and then he goes walking off so she's just still smiling and just shaking his hand oh no she doesn't speak to him until later and then fucking uh Roy Stalin comes walking up

with him and his fucking cronies and then Beth Beth just Beth looked like she was hating because she was staring right at Monique giving her that look and fucking Roy was talking to hell of shit so so like alright so he gets mad

he's like all right but Monique is still shaking Lane's hand but then Ricky and his mom pull up and she starts yelling at him, Monique Monique get over here so he's like all right well nice meeting you so he starts walking off and he walks into this park and then off in the background here comes

Johnny is that his name? Yeah he comes riding up on his bike and then Lane looks over and sees him. And he does the $2. And then Lane turns around to go run a different way. But there's another paper boy.

He's standing there. $2. And then I don't know where all this fog came in. But then there's like about 10, 10 newspaper guys. And they're all yelling $2. So Lane starts running across the lawn and all these kids are chasing after them on their bikes. I assume they were all out delivering papers because they have that paper holder thing.

So he gets to his car and he can't find his keys. And he gets into the station wagons and then haul his ass home. He runs into the house. His dad's sitting there reading the book and then he runs upstairs and he hears something. It's loud music. Coming out of a, what's his name? What's his name? Was that his name or?

Badger. Badger. Badger's room. He goes over and opens up the door. And there's five chicks, five ladies of the evening sitting there. And Badgers sitting on one of them's lap holding a bottle of champagne and he's wearing his, what's that guy's name from Playboy? Hugh Hefner. It's Hugh Hefner.

robe and they're all just looking at it but he just starts smiling and he goes, Happy New Year, and then shuts the door. Yes, it's funny, but I guess that book worked. He got skills. He got all these girls coming to his house. And how'd they get in the house?

They had to have knocked on the door and a dad should have answered to somebody, but it's a movie. I'm overthinking it too. But it worked. Picked up trashy. women. They're all in there just laughing. The next morning,

Badger cutting out something else. How to build a space shuttle. And his mom cooking something in a pot, there's tentacles and a, I don't know, look like a crab arm or something.

The tentacles are moving. That crab arm is co-claws opening up and shuddy. and then Lane is upstairs Those tentacles that are not even attached that she's putting in the pot in their movement. Lane is upstairs

in the bathroom brushing his teeth. I like this part because he starts sticking cutips in his ears and then he jams him in his nose. I was thinking he was listening to like Frank Sinatra or something. Because then his dad comes and opens up the door

and then Lane turns He turns and look And he's got Q-tips sticking out of his ears His nose and his mouth And his dad just shuts the door But Lane got a job at Pigburgers

Where Porkies works And he just I don't think I want to work there With some guy that I crashed into his truck twice Well His dad got him the job didn't he? Yeah. Because he tells her, because you're Al Myers kid?

And he's like, yeah. And he goes, you look pretty stupid to me. As Porky, Porky's sitting there, big old Stogie and big old cup of coffee. And he's just showing him how to make pig burgers. He, he's got a cookie cutter. Well, he calls it a pig mold. so he's supposed to make the hamburger shape like pigs.

So he's telling him, just basically showing him how to make burgers and everything. And then he tells him to put on this big hat, one of those cooking hats. But it's got eyes and a pig nose and big pig ears. And then he starts imagining like he always does, and he's imagining that he's like some Dr. Frankenstein crazy scientists. he's got a hamburger he's making this big giant uh hamburger patty that he puts on a a bun

then he sticks it uh on a cookie sheet or something and he the like how uh dr frankenstein put the monster and then it goes up into the top of the roof and uh lightning strikes it then it comes back down and then we start uh i like this uh stop anime and it's Van Halen's Everybody wants some song and then the hamburger comes of life and we hear David Lee Roth singing a song and the, well, the hamburger's singing

and he's playing one of Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstein guitars. I like that back in the day, majority of the time they just make up songs for movies, but they got a real song. because then that hamburger is starting to dance. But then he's in there and then he kind of comes to and then Porky

Porky comes back in and starts screaming out of Meyer! And then he tries to run out of the kitchen or out of the little cooking room. The hamburger's all burning on the grill and then Porky throws him out of the kitchen and he's laying there on the ground. But then when he looks up, it's Beth. And Roy.

And Roy starts doing pig noises at him. Oh, fuck. I hate these type of guys. It looks like Beth is just finally just getting fed up with it because she's like all embarrassed and don't even want to look on him. So he ends up leaving because, yeah, she's all scared. But we're back up at the top of the mountain. The K-12, Lane is getting ready to do it.

Booger is laying there In the snow So he's like Fuck it he's getting ready to do it again So then he hauls ass And it's the same Situation he starts to fall Duge

I'll give it to these stunt guys man He And Lane goes back home And his skis are broken And his mom is That was his mom That was his dad His dad's sitting there I think

Badger's little space shuttle How to Build Your Own Space Shuttle package shows up Does he try to kill himself again right here? Oh yeah This is when he gets the Paint thinner or whatever Yeah He walks in a little outfit on

Well before that The Flintstones are on TV And Barney Rubble starts talking the lane and he wants to go out with Beth so he gets all mad and throws his welding goggles at the TV

yeah he goes upstairs and gets a blanket wraps it around him and gets a like a tie wraps it around his head and goes into the into the garage and gets a yeah was it paint thinner

yeah it's paint thinner yeah paint thinner that's in a glass jar and he goes into the kitchen or into the dining room and his mom is all ready for dinner and Ricky and his mom and Monique are sitting there

and it's just sitting there and then she breaks out the food and she's like she got French french bread and French fries because of Monique and then he's just sitting there holding that big

old thing of paint and Ricky's mom grabs it and she thinks it's a liqueur so she's taking a swig of it and then she lights up her cigarette

and then well no before she can light her cigarette Lane is like no then BSKat surprise it didn't kill everyone but it

it jacked up her face because later when they show her she got out of her face is all bandaged up and everything but this is the part when the dad tries to talk to Monique and then Lane's kind of like she don't speak English

and she goes he's like of course she does and he goes these exchange should know a little bit of English but she doesn't do what she doesn't she doesn't know anything but yeah but after the house blows up um I'm surprised she didn't taste it drinking that

but she thought it was booze so Ricky's mom is all jacked up and Lane has to drive them to school so while they're sitting there this is when they roll up on the

the little Chinese Chinese guys roll up on them Ricky's riding in the back and Monique's in the front and this is when they come pulling up Lane Meyer the kid from Green Bay and he explains to them

what's going on and Ricky's like what do they want they want a race and he tells and he goes what does he say something about a motor vehicle is not a toy you got to obey the

the speed limits and all that shit so they're like fuck it I mean they're getting ready to do it so they're sitting there and then the light turns green but then Monique leans over and steps on his foot

and then hits the gas and then they go hauling ass down the road and then Lane like, I'm going to take them! But then they're like hauling ass down the road and then there's like a whole bunch of nuns come walking across the street and then they slam on the brakes and he does a 180 and then goes backwards

and hits this big old dirt mountain and then it jumps and then crashes into those. the water at this construction site. And then when they opened up the door, no, they thought there

there were some ducks swimming around the water. They thought Ricky was dead because he fell to the side and Monique was looking forward. And then when he's like, are you okay? Okay? She sits up and she's just laughing.

So then when they get to school, the whole car's all muddy and when they open up the door, all the ducks come falling out of the car and Ricky's all jacked up as well so he's like just talking to Monique trying to tell her that if he had his other car he would blow him out of the water

but then fucking Roy's dumb ass comes walking up again and then he just gets all depressed because he sees Roy and and Beth so next they're back at the they're in the lunchroom and she sit in there with him and Lane is just talking up a storm and then Ricky shows up and there's no room because there's some nerd guy

sitting there and he takes that kid's book and then tosses it and then he sits down next to to Monique and her and Lane are eating ding-dongs and then Ricky takes the ding-dong from her and just starts eating it and then fucking Roy shows you. up again and he's tried to be cool and speak French to her but then Ricky's looking over at him and then Roy slaps him in the head and they're still still talking about you need to beat me if you want to be on the team but then he's leaning

over Roy's leaning over trying to talk shit to to Beth but he's laying is telling Oh, she doesn't speak in. She only speaks French. She doesn't speak imbecile. So under the table, Monique's got a soda can and she's shaking it up. And then she turns it around, opens it up and spills all, squirts all over Roy. So she starts talking shit. But then he starts, Roy starts talking shit about her.

Then Lane jumps up. And this is when he challenges Roy to race at the K-12. So I think they could be there at high noon or some shit like that. And then everyone's like, ah, everyone gets all excited. But then Lane is just scared that he fucked up. He shouldn't have challenged him to that. But he needs to get his skis fixed because his skis broke from the last time that he broke him. So she's still talking to him, but she's still speaking in French.

So he's like he's talking about his. car that he needs to get fixed. He ends up going to the sports store to get his ski fixed and has his dad, or he charges it to his dad's account. I like the guy

at the register. He's in a wheelchair and he tells him, I try to ski the K-12. Yeah, he's sitting there in a wheelchair all bandaged up. So Roy's drive, or right, Roy. Lane is driving down the road.

He stops at a stop sign. And all he hears somebody running up on top of the car. And it's Johnny. He's leaning over. I want my $2. And then Lane punches it. He's hauling ass down the road. We see Johnny hanging on to the top of the car.

$2. $2. And then he drives into a car wash. Those old school car washes with the little flappy things that are supposed to wash your car, I guess. I never understood those things. Now those things are like all

touchless, so they don't even touch your car. Anyway, so he drives into that, and Johnny's like, I can't swim! So he gets sucked off, off the car. Back at the house, he comes pulling up,

and Monique is outside throwing lemons at a stop sign again. Yes. So he walks up to her and he tries talking to her. And this is when she starts speaking English. And she's just yelling at it. She starts telling him that, yeah, she's tired of Ricky always touching her and looking at her and everything. And she said that she came to America just to get away from wherever she was from.

But she starts going into this big explanation on what's going. on in the house talking about Ricky and then Lane is like oh my god he goes you can speak English and she goes yeah of course she wanted to come here to uh what she said to see the Dodgers the Brooklyn Dodgers yeah so she's just explaining to him and she was telling him that she goes yeah if if I didn't talk to him maybe he would get bored and leave her alone but no we all see that He says that since he just won't leave her alone, she said, what she says? Something about, he's always trying to put his testicles on her. Yeah, and he's like, what?

She went, ah, testicles, you know, and she starts moving her arms around. He goes, tentacles? She's like, yeah. Like the octopus? So they become friends. And then Ricky's mom comes out, side and side. yelling. What are you doing out there? Get in the house. Ricky's been looking all over for you.

She's got a big old bandage on her mouth. And Ricky's just looking at. So the next morning, Lane comes outside and he sees somebody messing with his car and it's Monique. She's fixing his car. So she gets it all ready to roll. He starts it up and they're like, fuck yeah so they fix it all up and then they just they end up taking off yeah every time i see this

scene i always think rich he's buying all kinds of parts and well he just went into that sports store and it just charge it to my dad's account so i'm sure he went and charged up all these parts for his car i like this song uh this uh from uh howard stern his dream into action album for those you get not Howard Stern what I say Howard Jones so anyway Howard Stern no not him he's got some songs but they're stupid now this is the Howard Jones from his dream into action album anyway so they fixed up his car and they're ready to roll I wonder he must be rich what was this a Camaro Yeah.

I mean, was it not? It doesn't look like that. Yeah, was it just dirty? All I had to do was wash it off because now it's all nice and shiny and tough. Ah, I love old trust. You ask me, it looks like all of a sudden it has a new paint job.

Well, she just had to get a rag and wipe off all the dust and it was ready to rock. Like, who that? hell was selling this car and it did he said he only paid two hundred dollars for it yeah no way so he rolls up it's all nice and fresh and clean and then we see the uh what were they the chin brothers as that was that their names uh let me go back i think i missed it chosen and his brother i think they were chinned i think that was their names uh no re the re brothers they're sitting in their car uh i assume at a stoplight just sitting there

with two chicks eating chinese food so they roll up on them the thing was funny though right before uh the close-up the girls are all looking they look over and see lane at his car but then they just go back to like they don't even see him lane rolls up rolls his window down, looks at him, puts his glasses down, winks, they all hurry up and put their crash helmets on.

The light turns green and Blaine takes off. But then the girls get all mad at these guys because they didn't punch it and they leave them. And then the two brothers start fighting each other in the car. But their car is tough. It's obviously fast. I don't know cars.

It's some kind of Ford. So I take it, uh, Lane didn't get fired from Pigburgers. Oh, he got fired. He just didn't get the keys back. Oh, that's right. He goes over to the pig burgers for a romantic dinner. Romantic TV dinner.

Well, yeah. He brought champagne, so they're ready to rock. And then he pulls out his saxophone to war with his sax skills. and then we go back up to the mountain to the K-12 and he's trying to get all juiced up and then Monique does give him the same advice that

Bougar gave her yeah I see this go down real fast and if something happens it turned so he's like all right so she's like look she goes there's no sweat watch me and so she fucking jumps down the hill and she starts skiing perfectly down

and then Lane's like, well, fuck if you can do what I can so he goes after her. He's skiing and jeans. Yeah. He thought he was raw. He was all good. He dove off. But then he ends up falling again

because he can't do the K-12. He goes falling down, rolling. He goes sliding down on his stomach all the way until he reaches her. So she gets. goes up to him and everything and then they they have a little warm embrace and she's laughing at him and everything.

But then they have this this awesome song blasting and they're skiing down the hill having a good time. Good old 80s montage. Yeah. He goes between her legs. She goes between his legs.

I like how he can all of a sudden ski hella good. Yeah. Well, when love is in the air things change because then they fall and they're all like all faces close to one another

and they're getting ready to kiss but then booger comes sliding upon them and cogg blocks them he's telling them that everybody from northern California is here to see one lane mile

one lane mire tackle the totally untamed mountain dead or alive. So he's like, oh yeah. But before he takes off, before Booger takes off, he rolls over, or skis over lane ski. And it breaks something because then one of it's all, one of his skis is all loose.

So Monique's like, all right, well, I'll see you at the bottom. So she, oh no, they were talking about. language and he's like well you want language lessons he goes yeah the international language and so she gives him a peck and then i'll see you at the bottom so she goes skiing off and then all of a sudden we see uh johnny they still wants is two dollars i like what they did to this bike and uh they put skis on the wheels Johnny's got he still has this little newspaper pouch thing that he carries around

He's got a helmet And he wants his $2 so he goes He's got skis on the bike on the wheels And then he's got two skis on his feet And then he goes chasing after Lane And Lane is hauling ass down the hill On one ski They had already went down the hill pretty much

But then Lane goes hauling ass Trying to get away from Johnny And I I assume he jumped on the ski lift and went back up to the top because then Laine, Roy's up there ready to go. And they're saying, he's saying, like, I don't think he's going to show up. So let me just break another record while I'm up here. So Elaine comes running up at him and they go, oh, he showed up.

And he's like, yeah. So they end up like, fuck it. And then they end up racing down the hill. he's sitting there ready to go but then he's looking around because he knows Johnny's coming so they're kind of already and Johnny's coming $2 so they start the race and they go hauling ass. Laine goes first

and then Roy comes up after him so they're hauling ass down the K-12 and it goes... Roy's swinging his ski poles that on lane is still having trouble going down the steep part. He's following, but he still managed to get down there.

And Booger's like, he's skiing on one ski. And hotter on their heels is Johnny hauling ass down the hill on his bike. And then Boogger's kind of like, there's someone following them. So he's hauling ass down on his bike. $2, $2. Roy is

I don't know. Roy, yeah, Roy is swinging his ski pools at Johnny telling him Get lost kid And Lane is still He's hauling ass on one ski But he ends up

Roy ends up hitting Johnny And he Ah Goes falling down This big ass cliff You'd have died He tried to murder that kid I like when they go back to him

He's laying there in the snow Oh two dollars I think he survived but laying his hain ass on one ski I'll give it to whoever this skier is man I mean that one leg must be strong

to be bombing and jumping and hitting those moguls and everything on one leg dude my knee would have snapped during all this and yeah shout out to whoever's filming this

because he's like going right along with him he's in front of him Roy's trying to catch him and Lane keeps looking back and just hauling ass down the hill. And then they get to the moguls. This is where my knee would have gave out. I don't know.

And it fell right there. But he does put his other foot down. And they make it through the little, then they start hitting their little flags. And they're hauling ass. They're like tied up, neck and neck, jumping and everything. It looked like Roy pulled out in front of him for a second.

But then Lane catches back up. And he goes, haul and ass and they get to the bottom of the hill they hit one last jump and then lane is victorious he crosses uh over the finish line before roy does so everyone's ah hooting and hollering everybody's happy beth is even kind of happy and then everyone runs up and they're all cheering lane uh beth runs up to um to lane gives a a big hug and a kiss and then Monique's looking at her like

What the fuck? Roy's all mad and one of his boys goes up and tries to pat him on the back and Roy just swats his hand away. Everyone's all happy and I'm I told Beth bitch get lost

but so he's sitting there and she tries Well it looks like he leaned in and kissed her she didn't kiss him but then Monique sees it and then she's all sad

but then all of a sudden Ricky comes walking up had they know did she tell them that we're going up there because they Monique Ricky's mom shows up what are you doing up here? You know how long it took to get up here?

Half of what northern California was there? Yep. Even the Ree brothers show up in their their little sportscaster jackets that they wear. This is, what does he say?

This is truly a sublime metamorphosis of Lane Meyer. I think the crowds were expecting to see here at Brody Mountain today. This is what he say? Perhaps you can tell us what brought you on. It's such an enchantment and exhilarating life. And he goes, language lessons. and then he goes running after Monique. And I assume there was a camera filming him

because he's got his microphone and he looks into the camera. Language lessons. Inspired words from a man who knows how to ski. So Ricky and his mom are hauling Monique off. Ricky runs up and tries to pull

Monique off. And she's like, what are you doing? He goes, he's coming with me. And she goes, no, she's coming with us. And Ricky's like, it's wise that you're not upset mothers. So then he pulls up his, uh, fuck it was called ski pulls. And then they start to have a big old duel Ricky and Lane are fighting each other. I like how Ricky's looking at him and then he just goes, ah!

And it runs at him and then falls. Fuck. I like those, uh, fucking his big ass. fur coat that he's wearing, I guess. The mom and Monique are off on the side. And then Ricky's looking at him and he goes charging at him. But then he

kind of ducks out of the way, grabs the ski pole, and Ricky goes crashing into his mom. So Monique, no, Lane picks up Monique and goes running off. Ricky's there and then some little nerdy chick comes up to Ricky and helps them up and instantly

falls in love, I guess. So they go walking off. Leave Ricky's mom there, Lane there. And then Lane and Lane and Monique go hauling ass down the road and then they end up at Dodger Stadium.

They drove straight there. They drove straight to Dodger. Well, that's what she wanted to do. She wanted to go to see the Dodgers but they're not playing. I don't know who let them in because they drove that Camaro all the way to home plate.

Good thing. He brought a saxophone too. It was in the trunk. So we get a helicopter shot of them pulling away and then we see Johnny hauling ass riding up towards them and that's your movie. So he rode all the way from the mountain on his bike

to Dodger Stadium to get his $2 from lane. That's the end of better off dead but during the credits we see Lane's dead. He's got another garage door that he fixed. So he's all proud ready, puts a big old bull on it. All of a sudden we see inside the garage we see we hear an ignition and then we see smoke in the garage and all of a sudden this big space shuttle comes crashing through the roof of his house. And it's Badger.

He built his space shuttle, and now he goes flying off into space. This big old space shuttle was in that little box that he picked up. And that's better of dead. Was there anything else at the end or was that it? I think that was it. But this movie is, it's funny.

what's to say at the very the film is over you can go now but this is the best of the 80s from 1985 a lot of people that are in it that are still acting today some are not with us

You can wait, but I don't know. Maybe you guys already seen it. But anyway. I'm not going to spoil the scores we gave, but it's not as bad as Blanche gave it. Ah, it was all right. I like the kills.

But anyway, go listen to that episode if you ever listen to it yet. And come back later for more. Brian and I will be back with wrestling as well as action returns and frightful reflections. We'll also be back with that as well. So until next time, you guys, all be safe out there and party on. And be good to each other.
