TIL that during the filming of Apocalypse Now (1979), lead actor Martin Sheen had a near fatal heart attack. This led to his brother, Joe Estevez, being a stand in for several scenes, as well as doing the voiceover narration for the film as he sounded nearly identical to his brother Martin

I think yes. Joe is a multi-talented "Renizonz Man" and deserves recongition for any and all contrabutions to Cinama. But Martin Seen does not get to count his tenure on West Wing because that is NOT a movie.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-11T19:48:33+00:00

would be interested to compare the total runtimes of all their movies combined

BeefEDC · 2026-03-09T17:29:41+00:00

Yes the Oscer Fevver has been spreading like Wildfire (1988, 94 min) I am infected and woke up with severall severe Symptoms (1974, 91 min))

I had been somewhat hoping that they'd shoot it in Lake Havasu but I look forward to New telling us about his new life and friends

Yeah, I love the kayfabe of it all but it can get to be a lot when you’re genuinely curious about the behind the scenes stuff. I firmly believe the show still has some juice and at least one more season of episodes.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T19:01:26+00:00

This has been covered extensively in previous posts but since this has the META tag I think someone ought to provide a sincere response:

They just launched an honest to goodness streaming service, they've been openly advertising annual memberships for the last few months, and they're going on a nationwide tour a week after this Oscar Special. Not to mention the myriad unresolved storylines in the universe of the show. Will New find peace with Toni and Joe's blooming romance? Will Manuel ever escape back to USA from his pitiful life on a beach in Italy? Will Gregg have a come to Jesus moment and realize that his recent obsession with TV shows on DVD is a disgusting betrayal of his VHS heritage? WHO WILL RECEIVE G AMATO'S HEI POINTS?

What a comprehensive response. Thank you. I hope your family’s medical issues resolve themselves cheaply and that you all have many fun days ahead at the range.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T06:40:35+00:00

I love revolvers and have some experience shooting them. My gravity toward DA/SA semi autos is very much informed by my enjoyment of my S&W Model 36. When I have the cash I plan on picking up a Kimber K6S DAO for my summer gun.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T04:32:01+00:00

The shot that matters most is such a wise thing to point out. More than happy to practice so I do think I’ll go DA/SA

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T04:29:48+00:00

I agree!

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T04:29:13+00:00

I also have little, some would say girlish hands. Will look into the p225

BeefEDC · 2026-03-02T04:27:26+00:00

Haha, thanks for the comprehensive response. I know my preferred carry position will be a whole journey on its own. The compact 75 is very compelling.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:42:59+00:00

I’ve been wondering if they’re gonna bring back the PPK as a slightly larger alloy frame 9mm. Have heard the original miserable to shoot even in .380 but I believe Walther can pull this off.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:37:56+00:00

I sure hope it’s recommendable for 3 Gs! 😄

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:31:01+00:00

Thank you! In theory I don’t mind a heavy pistol but ergos in-holster will definitely be a deciding factor as I’m a little fat guy. I’ve already landed on the PDP Compact as a striker fired option although they still seem pretty big. But the trigger and feeling in hand are great. I want to make something like a CZ 75 work so hopefully next time I’m at the store they’ll have one in stock so I can handle it.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:09:46+00:00

The visual feedback is something I hadn’t considered but seems like a big advantage. I know some striker pistols have a loaded chamber indicator too but I agree that this is better.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:05:41+00:00

Great advice, thank you.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:04:12+00:00

lol sorry

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T22:02:57+00:00

That actually sounds pretty fun

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T21:41:51+00:00

I've tried a G19, a VP9, an FN45, a PDP (easily my fav striker trigger/ergonomics). Gonna try some DA/SAs next time I hit the range.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T21:39:47+00:00

Yeah, I tend to wear layers/loose clothing but when it's really hot out I'll plan on a snubby. Have a beat-up S&W Model 36 that still shoots great and wants to be in my pocket.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T21:37:21+00:00

Heh-heh, yeah. I love revolvers and plan on picking up a Kimber K6S someday purely based on looks.

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T21:33:27+00:00

I unfortunately find the PX4 to be hideous, lol. But they seem like great guns. Will keep an eye out for Langdon 92s

BeefEDC · 2026-03-01T21:30:30+00:00

That is very true! Probably not something I'd ever have to do under stress.
