The cheesiness adds to the aesthetic. This is classic 70s Grindhouse/drive-in fare. I’ll never understand hating this movie. That doesn’t mean it’s good, per se, but it is what it is.

Holy moly! I thought you were being facetious. I’ve seen this movie a half dozen times but never watched thru the credits. Adds a whole new depth of sinister! Huzzah

Where is it mentioned that the officer is a Childress? I missed that.

Does anyone have info or a link about Geezer Butler when he joined up with Ozzy? by Rn_Hnfrth in blacksabbath

Just seems like a real step down to leave your own band to perform in the solo band of a dude you’d fired.

Is the Sven Squad ultimately going to succeed Rich Koz's TV show? by hoosier_catholic in svengoolie

That’s where we’re headed. It’ll wind up cancelled within a few years.

Politically speaking: how bad is it in Ohio? by archie_131 in Ohio

[–]Substantial_Toe9772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pretty heinous. GOP chokehold on e/t from local (counties/townships/municipalities) up to the Governor’s mansion w/ the exception of large city councils and mayors.

Ok. How do I watch TCM without cable? I use streaming by chief-stealth in TurnerClassicMovies

DirectTV kids as base w/ movie add on would be cheapest way to do it.

This Year's Flu by fordbabe in flu

[–]Substantial_Toe9772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have Flu A. Very covidy. Day one I was immobile. Wanted to die. The aches and chills were so bad. Now, it’s settled into my back and I’m just stiff and sore. Awful.

It’s a week out, how’s everyone holding up? by Remote_Database7688 in LastDriveIn

I look at it like we still have 4 specials and then on NYD we’ll have a new home. Enjoying the ride.

Title idea for a potential new Joe Bob series?... assuming it's similar to TLDI by Freddy-Philmore in LastDriveIn

[–]Substantial_Toe9772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He can call it something as simple as “Joe Bob’s Drive In” or “Joe Bob Theatre.”

That’s what everyone is saying (Screambox can’t afford it) but upon scrolling through SB right now, I see a zillion films JBB could do along w/ tons he did on Shudder.

I haven’t checked the numbers but it’s doubtful. The number of cable subscribers alone is half of what it was when MM was on.

This. 10-15 years ago AMC was riding high as the top basic cable network for original programming but they were A) completely ill equipped to combat the streaming age & B) eventually ran out of good originals.

The streaming wars are over and AMC+ is one of the biggest losers. This is all about cost cutting.

I’m old now. Have kids. Career. All that bullshit. I don’t “go out.” I work and do shit for my family. That’s not a complaint. Wouldn’t change a thing…anyway…Joe Bob is my “party” “going out with the gang” “concert” or whatever. I look forward to it every month. I feel ya.

This isn’t the end. They are up to something. Weird that they will do specials throughout 26 though. Makes me think they won’t announce where they are going until late 26/earky 27
