Tape deck Media see the welcome to see you at the party, Richta.
My name is Aaron Frescus, and with me as always are Joseph Beccastro and
Chris Chapman. And this week we are finishing off the summary and all the
good extra stuff for Arnold's nineteen eighty eight buddy cop thing Red Heat. Anyway,
let's just jump right back into it. So take it away, Chris,
let's see. Okay, So they kill the nurse Gershaan then runs away,
and Arnold chases after her and catches her, but then lets her go.
And at this point, I'm just very confused as to why she is
still in this movie. I just don't understand. Well, I mean,
what the fuck is the point she's in the movie? To die? It
spoilers. I understand why he let her go because he knows Victor and knows
he's taken advantage of her, and he's like, I get out of here,
get out of town totally. But also they could protect her, like
he also has to know that she's in danger, right, yeah, but
like they don't funk around with that in Soviet Russia. Yeah, I guess
that's true. Yeah, if he's not going to water boarder, then he
might as well let her go. Yeah. So at this point, Chief
Peter Boyle shows up to the hospital to chew out Belushi and Arnold, but
he takes Arnold's gun. Belushi gives Arnold a spare gun, and then they
had they head out to a diner to fill out paperwork and do some light
bonding. My only note here was, God, Belushi's character is the fucking
worst, just the way he's talking to the server, the way she's just
a piece of shit. She comes over to peremptively fill his coffee cup and
he says, hey, fuck you, don't pour any more coffee in this
is you. No he doesn't, but he says he stops her, and
he's like, I just got my coffee the perfect color. Please leave me
alone. It's the only thing I have in the world. Not three minutes
later after, I literally don't even think it's three minutes later, he's like,
hey, hey, hey, where the fuck are you come film my
coffee cup. Yes, he called her sugar tits, but I will say
he definitely did not say sugar Okay, well, because I was gonna say
the polite and proressive and feminist way to put that is saccherin breast. So
Arnold is dropped off at the hotel, where he finds messages from Gina Groshan.
So he calls her and she offers to give up Rosta if the cops
protect her. And I think they come to an agreement, but I was
also a little confused and just absolutely did not care enough to put any more
thought into this. Yeah. I don't think Arnold ever says like, Okay,
it's a deal. He's just like, yeah, he says, give
me Rosa, I will do what I can. And then they don't say
anything else, and they both and that while that technically is an acknowledgment on
his part, she doesn't agree to it. They don't make a plan,
they don't like nothing else happens. It's pretty smart on his part, because
what's he gonna do for He's gonna leave the second thing that's true, she's
recording it. He's like, He's like, no, I asked, I
asked a question. You know, I never said I would do it.
Back at the station, Belushi checks his messages and gets an idea when he
hears a message from his ex brother in law, Pat, a locksmith he
was once again, I had no idea what was going on, but it
explains it. So yeah. Back of the hotel, we see Rosta and
the gang members watching Arnold's hotel and Roasta sees him stick the little key into
his lamp in his room. I love how Arnold hides the key, but
he doesn't bought it a close the blinds while he does it. You know,
he knows that there are people looking for it and for him when whatever
yep, Rochta goes into the hotel gets Arnold's room number, but then he
gives the wrong number to the gang members, so they bust into a room
and shoot some random guy in the bathroom. Jim Morrison's also staking the hotel
too, so that's pretty cool. This was his name on the list.
Yeah. Arnold goes to check it to check out all the shooting, and
Rochta slips into his room to grab the key. Arnold takes out all of
the gang members with the help of a very brave lady of the evening,
then proceeds to have a shootout with Rosta until Rochta escapes by jumping out a
window into the river. So the girl in the hotel room is watching some
Courtroom Show at Jennifer Lewis. Do you know who Jennifer Lewis is? Yeah?
That fuck that was we did not know that that was. I was
like, what's that's not an actual show? Wait? What? No?
Not no, I like, I'm it's not credited, it's not under her
credits, like it's it's not an actual show, which was weird, Like
percent sure that's not one of her that's not one of her credit She's not
credited on like as that. So, like I it was weird to see
because when I when I saw him, like, holy shit, it's Jennifer
Lewis. And then so I looked it up. I was like, damn,
this is this is her first movie credit, but it's here. I'm
I'm curious. That is so crazy, I was. I was sure that
that was like a Judge Steve Harvey situation in the eighties. Yeah, and
that's like where we got her or like where she came from. I guess
she would be she would be self right, not as an actress. Yeah
for that Yeah, because her name on the TV was Jennifer Lewis, Like,
nope, she the first self she she has a couple of Bete Miller
credits and then like I think in her videos maybe, and then the next
thing is nineteen ninety four. That's crazy. So it's just it was weird
because they use a real name too. Yeah. So yeah, So for
our listeners who are probably pretty dumb and don't know who Jennifer Jennifer Lewis is,
uh, why don't you eat? I mean I know who she is
obviously, because I mean, go watch season six of The Fresh Prince or
whatever whatever fucking season random random seasons of The Fresh Prince. She's his and
on Fresh Prince, she's the grandma in Blackish? Is she is she the
new antviv Or the old ant viv Or? No, no, no,
no, no, she's one of his other other She's like, she's like
Vivian's sister. Yeah, so if you sorry recognize her, you should look
her up because she's a character actor. So she's she's in The Temptations,
the TV movie. She's in, Yeah, she's in. She's in a
bunch of stuff. She's like, yeah, she's the grandma in Blackish,
but she's great and Blackish I haven't seen it. It's it's it's her character
is great. Because I don't know anyway, but just look her up.
She's is she married to Laurence Fishburn in that show? Yes, yes,
Laurences Bush that too, so yeah, he's a grandpa on that So yeah,
they were married, but she tried to shoot him or something like that,
or she did shoot him, and so they ended up getting divorced.
Nice. Hi, Aeron, here cut in real fast with the quick editor's
note about what we're talking about Jennifer Lewis. Before we get that, I
just wanted to say thank you to our researcher Nigel Sinclair. Nigel, say
hello, Nigel sinclo outual service. Hey, thanks Nigel, how are you
doing today? Delight awesome? Thank you so much for doing our research for
us. Thank you. It's been a family service for generations doing podcast research.
Yes you was nineteen fifty three. Oh it was a young lad in
London. That's okay, Nigel, we don't we We'll get your backstory another
time. Thank you for the information. I really appreciate it. So I'm
you too, Serve Okay, Well, thank you so much, Nigel.
And from what we have from Nigel is okay. So this is coming from
the Saban Entertainment Wikipedia page with the Variety article titled quote Sabon Finance Finances Pilots
independently being cited as a source, but Nigel wasn't able to find the actual
article because it's old as hell. It's from nineteen eighty eight. That's not
the old okay anyway, So, according to the Variety article in October nineteen
eighty seven, Sabon produced three projects, one of them being Love Court,
which was in collaboration with company I think it was a syndication company, correct
syndication company called Orbis Communications, So I guess Saban produced it, but it
never aired, which would make sense as to why it's not listed on Tenner
for Lewis's IMDb. So, yes, thank you so much for funding that
for us, Nigel, it is my pleasure. But yeah, the other
thing was after they killed the wrong dude. No, I tell him one
of the assassins is like, wrong guy, Victor set us up, what
you mentioned. But why is he gonna set him just because he wants to
take the money for himself obviously, Yeah, I think, yeah, I
think that's the point. Is so because I think the gang members are almost
holding him hostage, you know what I mean? How So because he owes
them a bunch of He made a deal and he owes them a bunch of
money, but he no longer has the key to go get the money,
so it's kind of incumbent on. Yeah, he gets the key here,
but up until this point, like I think when when he meets up with
Arnold earlier and everything up until this point, I think the gang members are
kind of like, yeah, but they knew that they were going near to
get these so it's basically just like double cross crossing. Like like he he
just wants to keep everything for himself, right, I mean that is what
he wants. That's what we see at the end of the movie. Okay,
And did they arrive at the hotel with Victor, Like why would they
split up from there? Yeah? I don't know why they didn't want him
there. Well, they all went into room three oho two and he's just
like, slip out the back door, room three oh three, Like why
why would they agree to Yeah, why would they agree to let him like
slip out the back door? Like he he basically says room three zero two
and then they all just go that way and he doesn't go with them.
I'd be like, well, you should be up fucking front man. We
want that key because he's more important than the rest of them, so they
don't want him to die, I guess. And if they're busting into okay,
Arnold's room, like you know, he's gonna like, uh, he's
gonna stand back a bit, and then he just kind of once the shooting
starts, he just like fucking does a barrel roll and like no one sees
him again, and you just mean, like, sorry, it's nitpicking anyway.
Yeah, you're nippicking, and I have explanations for it, so yeah,
perfect, all right. So later the cops clean up the hotel and
we see Rosta putting on his sleeve gun as the TV news reports that Gina
Gershaan was found dead in the river. Chief Peter Boyle takes Arnold and Belushi
off the case, but they go to Pat's key store anyway, where Arnold
looks up the key number and finds out it was for a locker at a
bust I believe. At one point Chief Peter Doyle does say does call someone
a loose cannon? So he does it twice if he does it in this
scene too, he does it with the first time. He's talking about Arnold
two like like when he's like, yeah, he's a loose cannon. So
so if it's in I only noticed it the first time, but if he
does it again, that's the second time. Yeah. That was another interesting
choice with the brother in law thing, Like, it was an interesting choice,
like introducing an entirely new character in a possible plot line with us than
twenty minutes left in the movie. I'm sure it'll probably lead to like,
I don't know, she's sister showing up at the end or something, and
not be completely forgotten in thirty seconds, right, Like, there's no reason
to bring like that. They wouldn't bring this up when the movie's almost over
some random things. I think it's I think it's fine to use as a
plot point to get them to know where the key leads to, but to
spend so much effort on all the dialogue between him and his brother in law
they're arguing over his sister, yes, if it's if it's if it's just
like, oh yeah it's my brother in law. That's fine. But then
they they they focus on them and while Arnold's like looking up that stuff.
So it was just weird. I don't know this movie has a lot to
say that has nothing to do. To be fair, Earlier, belue she
was asking Arnold about family. To be fair, Belushi's sister is a bit
and she doesn't deserve But Belushi was asking Arnold about family, and he said
he had a baby sister, and our kid's sister got recently warister whatever.
So it was a one line set up up, Like it's you know,
if they didn't have that one line in there and this scene happened, would
be like, oh you needed bro, was just one fucking line. So
they gave us they heard us from the future, and they gave us the
one line to set this part up. So also, you know what,
It's probably the one thing I find likable about Belushi in this movie is that
he's like standing up for his sister and helping his sister deal with this dickhead
that she fucking married and then divorce sort of help. But also I'm also
I'm also assuming pats and assholes. I mean, he could be, but
he could also be like I mean, we know Belushi, what if like
Belushi's sister is the fucking asshole too, and she's just like He's like,
hey, I'm making like two thousand dollars a month on this key store,
and I'm paying nineteen fifty to her. That leaves me literally fifty dollars and
she wants more, Like I if she asked for more, she's gonna get
less because I'm not gonna be making any more money. So I don't know.
We don't know. Be a piece of ship too. That's very true.
That leads him the next question, Sorry, what were they What were
they doing there? Because they did a job of explaining it, like finding
out what type of key that Victor has so they can copy it or like
not so they can copy it, just so they can find out what it
goes to so they can go there. That's how they got to the bus
station, Okay, because there's only one there's only one place for those those
keys that I don't know. He got the number off of the key,
Yeah, I saw, well, thank god he wrote down that serial number.
But like it was just weird because I was like, wait, he's
it's a key, so it's only gonna go into those set of bus lockers,
like anyway again, niitpicking Joe, Oh no, he's just a good
cop. So he writes down all the information and then yeah, writing it
down, I don't have a problem with I do think it's interesting that there's
a there's a there's a like directory of every single key in the city and
where. Yeah, that's why I was waiting for a next plation. Well,
okay, so okay, I live in the city. There's plenty of
bus stops around. There ain't bus stops for fucking lockers unless you go to
a greyhound station. I don't know what it's like in Chicago. It's a
little bigger city. But if it's like these keys were made for lockers,
and these lockers are made by war sold to greyhounds, then you know how
to then you go to the greyhound station or this particular kind you know,
like it's a company thing. So it'd be pretty fucked if it was like
a kryptonite bike lock and it's like, well it's full of bikes. He
must be at like the bicycle Coalition, And he goes there and there's just
like a bunch of fucking dudes with their fixies, you know, and it's
just like we all fucked now. But you know, like kind of makes
sense, Like all right, it's it's not like I mean, sure,
it's a little like far fetched, and they obviously got like their movie Charming
or whatever, like, they got very much that it led to that.
But that's not to say it's like absurd that this type of key would go
to a locker, and this type of locker got sold to fucking Greyhound,
and then therefore you'd go to a Greyhound station. Yeah, all right,
keep plugging those bottless it's making me like the movie Moar so At. We
go to a diner near the bus station where Rosa meets with Elijah's lieutenant,
who takes the key, goes and grabs the money. Then Rosa corners him
in the bathroom, gets the info about where the drugs are, and then
shoots him with the sleeve gun because, like Aaron said, he wants everything.
He wants to take the drugs and keep them money and everything. It's
not very Marxist of him. But then again, well that's what Elijah said
earlier. He's the only fucking Marxist here. But then again he's he's not
Russian, he's uh, Georgian, Georgia. True. Also true, he
doesn't believe in the party. Oh yeah, he's from that state anyway.
My my only note, what you we already talked about was one hundred dollars
building, So go ahead, got it. Ros picks up the drugs just
as Arnold and Belushi arrive at the bus station. Arnold finds Roasta first and
pulls a gun on him. Okay, so the when they show up to
the bus station and Victor meets with that drug dude, it is sad how
happy I got when I realized that that drug dealer, the one that's in
the white suit, that Victor that he meets up with, he's actually from
Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Oh he is. Yeah, like he's one of
the bikers in the scene at the bar that says uh, I say,
we stomp him and then we got to him, then we hang him,
and then we kill him. I say, we let him go. Anyway,
this is the only other thing I've seen him. Yeah, So it's
like he's good to see he's got some range beyond like biker gang gang.
So there's Pee Wee lums in this movie. Oh yeah, yeah, that's
true. Arnold goes and finds Roasta first and pulls a gun on him,
but then Belushi shows up and tries to take him in instead, so Arnold
turns his gun on Belushi like a fucking moron. Belushi tries to talk it
out until a civilian walks onto the platform. Belushi freaks out and Roast uses
the confusion to take a shot at Arnold and make a run for it.
I don't know why I started laughing when Bess move to the old lady start
of cranking him. It seemed like the writers couldn't think of a reason for
Victor to get away. We're just like, fuck, you just have an
old lady walking out of the bus station, an old and he just walks
out onto this completely otherwise deserted bus. Okay, so we have a Mexican
standoff. Everybody's familiar with that. Uh. There's also the Canadian standoff,
which is when two people get to a four way stop and they keep waving
each other on. You know, they're just trying to be That's a Canadian
standoff. Maybe this is a like Soviet or Russian standoff where it's just like
you have the guns pointed and he's like, no equal guns for everyone around,
and he goes not fair if he has two guns exactly. So redistributing
the wealth, but by wealth I meant it also means redistributing debt. There
you gotta go. So Arnold is looking around the bus depot when Rochta almost
runs him over in a bus. Then Arnold was great when he like,
for some reason he opens the opens the bus door and nails an. It
was just made me laugh. You, I don't even know about it,
but it was just like he just gets nailed by the open bus door.
Yeah, funny. So then Arnold hijack's another bus to give pursuit, with
Belushi barely able to hop on in time, and they're just friends again.
The Russians have a very destructive bus chase across the city until Rosta ends up
cornered in a train yard and turns around to face Arnold. They also,
like, I finally started to appreciate the dialogue for this movie right around the
scene where Belushi gets on the bus, when the Riders decided they need to
explain Danko's bus driving skills by having Jim Belushi question him about it and Arnold
telling him like the Army, I louned it in Kiev. Well, obviously
the Army's stupid. It's like a vital part of basic training. What are
you dumb drive an American bus. It was just I don't know. It's
like, why do you need to explain? I wouldn't have. I was
like, whoa, whoa, whoa, that's where you lost me. He
can drive a bus. Busses like semis where they're way different than regular crowds.
I don't know, I feel like they're not. Yeah, semis are
well there. I haven't been in a semi in thirty years. But there's
a lot more of because you're going up, up and down a lot of
hills, there's a lot more of like like actually shifting, and then you
have something called a jake break. Hey dad, if you're listening, thank
you for teaching me this, like a jake break, which is like an
engine break as opposed to like brake pads on the wheels. You know,
it's it's you're powering more that and buses tend to be more of just like
automatic, so you're not going up, you're not going through the fucking grapevine
or like up and down all this stuff, and have like super heavy cargo
driving an RV right the bus basically, yeah, i'd say it be more
to an RV. However, speaking of these buses. Uh, and you
guys been talking about the writers, but they've been really genius with this.
So one bus is going to Montreal and and uh, that's when Victor is
driving, and the other one is going to Saint Louis, which is what
Arnold's driving. But if you think about it in baseball terms, like the
Cardinals have been the most same loost. Cardinals have been the most successful National
League team probably ever and at the time the Expos have been like the least
successful ones, you know, and of course it got screwed in the strike
at ninety four. So if you're thinking about redistributing like the wealth of like
titles and you know, all that stuff, like that's you have the juxtavit
jus positions, thank you juckstap that word between those two National League Baseball teams,
which of course is always funny in the city of the Cubs, who
up until that point still fucking suck. It took them another what twenty eight
years to win a World Series, but like that, yeah, so very
I don't know if it was the writers or the director, but like very
kind of deep meta baseball capitalism, socialism commentary on their part with that and
all right, I see I never think about it like that. Well,
neither do I because I just made that up right now. So I don't
know why this isn't a math problem. If Arnold leaves the bus station headed
for Montreal, Victor leaves the bus station head of Saint Louis at this time,
at what point do they do they meet? When does Arnold get to
shoot the other guy? First of all, you got those backwards? How
latest Jim work? Arnold was going to Saint Louis. But I think they're
in opposite direction. I don't know, Chicago, if you're going to Montreal,
do you got to go south? Yep? Yeah, but no you
have the lake, go through the lake. Yeah, it's also summer,
because it's very human, as it's been talk about, So it's not like
the lake has been frozen over. I think they would be going the same
direction. Wow, it's the hell of a math problem. That's like geometry
too. Anyway, let's see. So then Arnold and Rosta play Chicken,
with the game only ending because Belushi forces Arnold to turn at the last second.
Arnold's bus flips, but Rochta drives in front of a train and gets
his bus smashed, Belushi and Arnold get out of the bus. Belushi just
gives up at this point and lets Arnold face Rosta alone. Rochta stumbles out
of his bus, and despite having blooded his eyes and likely multiple concussions,
he shoots the train conductor dead center, and then thirty seconds later, when
Arnold walks up, he misses his shots wildly and Arnold blows him away no
problem, in what is probably one of the least satisfying final showdowns ever.
Multiple shots that I really like. I almost wish they had just shown the
wrestling of the snow scene again. Yep. Just I mean at least at
that you heard some of the Arnold Alzi no and they have, like me
most ridiculous like punch sounds like you know, punchdounds and like almost just like
but this one was like it's like a fucking steam engine every time they punched
each other. But it makes me, like Eraser a little bit less because
it's like, really, Arnold's gonna the bad guy is gonna die, right,
you know, you're gonna be foiled by being hit by a train again.
Really it's kind of derivative, but it's just me, that's true.
That's why he had to add that he caught a training thing. I should
have said it the first. Let me say anything. Okay, so I've
been I have been thinking this whole time of like that line and what he
should have said here. But uh, speaking of the Soviet stuff, like
he should have said, at least the trains run on time, because you
know, for those no no, no, that's like, uh it old
kind of sentire. It was it Stalin. It's a fascist. Well I
know, but it was no specifically for Muslin, it was Stalin. God
damn it. That would have worked out a lot better. But yeah,
same idea, This is why that trains or something you can still work in
it. And there he's got a tweaky a little bit. Anyway, all
right now we cut to the airport where Belushi gets conned out of his watch
and a show of friendship, and then we get a jarring cut to Arnold
back in Russia as the credits roll, and that's the end of the movie.
I did find it. I did find it. Really. It was
really touching how they close out the movie with the message, like that message
of unity. When Arnold basically tells Belushi that when he arrived in the US,
he didn't know what to expect, but that during his visit he's seen
a lot of changing and there might have been two guys that wanted to kill
each other. But that's better than twenty million, which was a pretty powerful
message for me, because I think what he was trying to say is that
if could change, and Belusha could change, everybody can change. Okay,
I don't get in all right, I don't get it either. No,
that's that's that's I'm just doing. That's just at the end of Rocky fove
Oh. I mean, everybody wants to credit Rocky four with ending, you
know, Soviet Union in the Cold War, but nobody talks about this movie,
you know. Yeah, just I should have just played the clip.
Apparently that wouldn't have worked either. I've never seen Rocky four. What that's
the best one? Yeah, that's what I've heard. That is that is?
Which ones? Have you seen? Rocky And wait, Rocky Balboa that's
a good that's good too. Three and four are probably the best four.
I'd say four to three. I've also seen Rocky five. That's the worst
one. Yep, yes, rock I haven't seen any of the Creeds,
so I can't speak about that. I can't speak about the Creeds. But
the original Rocky is like if if you can shut off your brain to what
Rocky became and just watch that as a movie like made the first seventies.
Yeah, like that's a really fucking good movie. And then of course it
gets more and more kind of outlandish and ridiculous, and then Rocky four is
like the fucking prime peak of just exactly what that is, you know,
like the perfectness, and then Rocky five it's like, uh, Tommy the
machine Gun and all that other it's still it's still okay, like it's it's
it's okay. It's just like when you come up like Rocky four is like
the peak rockiness and then you go down to Tommy Gun. But man,
that Rocky four, you gotta watch three and then watch four because three helps
like soften out Apollo Creed's character, and then four. Yeah, I mean
it's the same thing that kind of happened to Rambo, Like Rambo I never
watched First Blood is is is like serious commentary on the Vietnam War. And
then yeah, like I don't even think he kills anybody in that, and
then it just like of course they made tied with Okay, so we got
fast and furious and then Fast and Furious two, which is I'm sorry,
too fast, too furious, which it should have been the faster and the
furious, sir. But then then they fucked up and went uh fast and
furious three Tokyo drift, which should have just been uh three fast, three
furious. I don't know, I know the fastest with the three as the
e okay furious. So second of that is Rocky First Blood, I'm sorry,
not Rocky Rambo First Blood part two. Why is in the Second Blood?
I don't know. That's fun It's right fucking there, filmmakers. Uh
but yeah that film serious goes from like and Diehard does the same thing.
Well get into that in a minute, but uh, it goes from like
a guy being like disillusion to the Vietnam War and like not killing anybody and
just trying to like escape. Okay, it was a Brian Cox striker.
I believe that is who's after him, you know, it's it's whatever,
Yeah, Brian Bano. I don't know they're all same, but but yeah,
and then like smash cut to like Rambow four where he's just like people.
He's in the jungle with like a mini gun, just mowing down that
people. Like that was the one where he with Julie Benn's right, where
he's in Cambodia or whatever. No, I don't know, I haven't seen
it in forever, but it's important. I don't know that. No one's
good. Like it's violent as hell, but he's like like they're trying to
like appeal to him because they're like, we're trying to go in there to
you know, missionaries, missionary. Yeah, we're trying to save the world.
He's like, fuck the world. I'm like, yeah, the world.
You guys, Like, man, this guy gets it Lydia, listen
to him. You guys are gonna get what you deserve. I don't know,
Like I'm on the wrong side of that, yeah, but it like
it completely like flips his character and the same thing with Diehard, Like the
original Diehard, he's just one cop in a impossible situation, like he doesn't
have shoes and everything, and then come like live for your day Hard,
He's like jumping out a helicopters, like hanging down and like doing fucking flips,
and it becomes like a superhero. I don't know the first one for
that lost their way. Yeah. Anyways, Uh yeah, so I guess
we got names and yeah that's the end of the movie. Uh. Now
we're gonna move on to uh what I'm sure is to be a rip roaring
segment name it. Now, we're going to do something extremely fun. We're
going to play a wonderful game called who is My Daddy? And what does
she do? Yes? Yes, okay. So, as many know,
with a lot of these older movies, there's not a lot of people who
work on the movie. Like if you compare the credit time from like a
movie like this to even some like your random Marvel movie or really any movie
with CGI, it's like fifty times longer. So for this one, I
sorry, real quick. Do they name every single obviously, I'm assuming this
is probably a stupid qu is a stupid question? They name every single animated
that works on it. It's not just like the animation team from No.
It seems like they name like every animation Okay, I just kidding, Like,
well, like a lot of times it'll be like like the animation team
Joe Blows Animation, and then it'll be like a list of fucking CEO like
Joe Blow, you know, and like all that other shit like fucking three
hundred dudes or whatever our chicks. I don't know three hundred people. I'm
sorry saying I can't work. I am anyways, uh so, I only
saying is they shouldn't. So only I have two names. One a gangster
was played by Peter Kiss, which is just like, uh, you know,
Peter is a term for penis and kisses kiss. Yeah, you think
of Peter, Chris. But it always amazes me when you pull that shit
out of your ass, like, oh, like truly amazing what your mind
could do when looking for alternate ways to just say penis. Oh yeah,
literally every name Richard pain Man of Richard rich Rick, like all of those,
I have to stop and be like like Dick Stevens. I mean it
sounds funny, but I don't really put it in there. And if you're
a longtime listener and you listen like the first episodes, like I went through
some weird names and like Jason Johnson, I don't know, it just sounds
like a cool name, or like Steve Bartowski, he sounds like a cop.
Actually, I think Steve Barkowski was a quarterback for the Falcons and seventies.
Anyways, So the other other one have the person who played Yvonne Danko
was somebody named Arnold Schwartz the Nigger. That's a very weird, like dude,
Like, good luck to that, dude. Yeah, if you're if
you're getting into like movies and you have like your sad card, why not,
like you know, you gotta you gotta change, like American people aren't
gonna accept that. You gotta anglicize it. Yeah, you go, you
need to, you need to make it not so long exactly. Sa Beth
Green is like his last name isn't Green, Alison bree Breeze her middle name,
Like like why not go with like Arnold Strong or something you know,
or just like Arnold Olympia or something not Arnold Schwartz and Nagger, I don't
know, something like that. Like dude just actually his weird body, Like
yeah, he's just he's not gonna gonna make Oh I'm sorry I didn't scroll
down far enough. There is actually one more name, so you have and
follow me on this. We have Thor and Loki and their last name is
Odin Son because they are the son of Odin. Therefore ven thor Son would
therefore be this son of thor So we have a literal god who was in
this movie, Sven Thorson, or at least the son of a god.
I'm not sure. Oh god. Yeah, it's like a Hercules situation,
like speaking of that Hercules in New York. It's start Arnold strong look,
Arnold Trump strong man boom. But I I guess like uh sphn Thorson is
so, I see no flaw in that logic. Story checks out. Damn,
that guy's going places. Yeah, I can see that guy doing more
stuff than this Arnold brown Schwager or whatever you call him, Schnitzelwitzer, uh
farts and partser farts. I'm sure to think of what he says, what
he keeps calling himself in in Last Action Hero Brown Schwager I think is one
of them. Quick said, note do you guys remember well I don't even
remember that, but it was an ad campaign in the eighties with thews like
fan it means something in true man. But everybody thought they were a clipper
and they had the bumper stickers. They're like far from pukin. I have
like a guy like drunk. That's all. Nope, I mean like meme
comedy back in the day, Like you know, it took a little while
spread you had Calvin pissing on like a Ford logo. But if you had
a Ford, you had Calvin pi piss on a Chevy logo. Was it?
I think it was the Simpsons boice was it where he's like a,
yeah, do you have a decal of Calvin pissing on hobbs? I think
that was the Simpsons. I'm pretty sure that was Mo asking for anyway,
I might move on to the kill count. Sure, oh yeah, have
you ever killed anyone? Yeah? But they were all bad. I have
it right here, So uh, I'm gonna guess first eight eight sounds good.
You want to go next, Joe, or do you want me to
go? Yeah, I'll go next. I am going to go with thirty
seven. That is too many. I'm gonna go with fourteen. I feel
like it's it's like surprisingly low. I feel like it is. This page
is loading slowly, rold Okay, there we go the final tally seventeen.
Fuck seventeen. I love this website. It breaks down. Yeah, I
try to count it. I'm always too low and off, so I didn't
try to count it this time, and I went high and I'm way off.
I even shoots Yuri Moscow Chase. There's four prison escape, there's one
prison escap Oh yeah, there's one hospital, there's two motel, there's five
morgue one oh ginaer Shan they killed someone at the in the bathroom, and
then the final fight. Yeah, okay, seventeen. Yeah, all right,
nice, that's all. Chris, Yeah, we got cha, Chibiaania.
Sorry, I rush. She's a little rusting kind if I can change
and you can change, Okay, then moving on there. What do you
guys got for your favorite lines? Because I know what mine is. It's
it's easy for me. It's I did not want to touch his ass.
Yeah that's all. That's such a great out of context Arnold Lens. Yeah.
Yeah, that's the kind of thing you put on a soundboard. Yeah.
So I only have two and one of the one of them was that
one. The other one was like I think I mentioned earlier, where Blue
she's like, are you shooting me? And Arnold it's like, I am
not shooting on you? But I just thought of one more and it's along
the same lines of Arnold not understanding English but not understanding like the context of
it, I guess or something. But he was talking to Genie Gershan and
he's like, uh, he's like, you are a stupid say that.
And I didn't really wind it to make sure, like did he just say
you are stupid or you are a stupid? But he definitely says you are
a stupid. So mine would have to be Arnold's partner. Handcuffs wuld be
a good idea. I mean, he's not wrong, he's just like it's
seriously like a video game line where like, you know, you're you're kind
of in the tutorial, you still have the game. You're like, I
have a gun, I have like a taser. And then he says like,
you like handcuffs. You've been standing there too long in the game.
Is trying to give you a clip. And then and the villains like you're
gonnaarrest me or what? Yes, He's like, yeah, that's actually the
line of the villain would say, Hankcuss would be a good idea. You're
like, oh, right, handcuffs, press l one to clip handcuffs,
yeahhh okay. And then before we get to the irons pumped, how about
we get arresses too, wells and play a little total recall. What do
you want, mister quay the same as you to remember. Open your mind,
Open your mind. All it is is seven random trivia questions from the
movie We just watched in the first one to get three correct wins seven,
five five random. Sorry, all it is is five. All it is
five random trivia questions from the movie We just watched, and the first one
to get three correct wins two correct, three correct, three correct wins.
Okay, anyway, rules Chris starts reading the question whoever knows the answer buzzes
and using your name as a buzzer. Keep in mind, blah blah blah.
Anyway, you're ready, Yeah, okay, I'm ready. All right.
Question number one, what is the name of Arnold's dead Russian partner?
Aaron? Aaron, Vladimir? No guessing Russian names now, Joe, Joe.
Then it's not a Russian? Now, uh? What is that?
That's like Icelandic from some sort Like what did you say, Aaron? You
said it? I know, I said it, liked three minutes ago.
I said his partner? Yeah, like partner, I said, was his
partner? No? No, no, you said his name a minute ago.
That's why I was afraid to ask this question. Handcuffs Victor h Ury.
Oh no, I don't ever written down anywhere. You absolutely said his
name. I did hear earlier because I love the game Command and Conquered Too,
Red Alert Your's Revenge. Amazing game. I thought I was. I
was just saying I had a year innate. But all right, yeah,
all right. Question number two, what is Arnold posing as in the bath
house at the beginning of the movie Joe Stell steel worker? Oh? Can
you get any closer than that? Air? Ohait naked new No? All
right, no, he's right, he's right, But like they say,
foundry worker in the movie. Yeah, no, okay, all right,
that's Joe. Okay, all right. Question number three, what is the
room number that just three? Nope? Aaron, Oh that is want to
hear the question? Question ahead? What is the room number that Roasta gives
to the clean heads to trick them? Wait? I don't know, I
don't know, Joe, God damn it. I mean, can I guess
again? Yeah? Three? H two? Yes, that's correct. I
probably should just went one down or one yes, whatever. Anyway. Number
Question number four, I guess what political crime did Abdul Elijah commit to end
up in prison. Aaron, wait, he just robbed a bank, he
said, yep, that's correct. Okay, it was a joke, okay,
because he said he was a political criminal. And the Arnold's like,
what what was your political crime? Because I robbed a bank? Yeah?
Question number five, according to Belushi's character, what are the four major food
jokes? Joe? Coffee, donuts, hamburger, and fries. That is
correct, Coffee, French fries. He does say French fries, you know,
half a point, but that still gives me enough. Yep, he's
still beating you. All right, that's it? What you got another one?
Or I mean, I have another one in but we didn't need it.
How did the Russian nurse kill the other Russian? Joe? Wait,
Joe uh injected an air bubble into their vein? Yep, yep, correct.
Joe gets extra got distracted because I was thinking about that Russian nurse.
I was like, but I was like, oh my god, oh man,
it's a guy. And then I was like, oh if I ca
now, okay, when the big man was killed, you must have wounded
it. It's blood, wasn't the leaves? If you please we can kill
it all right, and let's get to the irons pumped. So we're gonna
put this movie on a scale of one to five irons pumped. Please remember
that this is a scale just for Arnold movies, because for over scale,
for all movies, they would all be fives because they have Arnold in them,
even sabotage. So, Chris, what say you? This movie is
in particular like this movie? It is definitely the kind of movie that you
expect Arnold to be in. Yes, but the action is not very good
and he doesn't get any good lines or like, I don't know, So
like I'm gonna give this movie a two point zero because again, this is
the kind of movie that he would normally go in. But I do feel
like his charisma and artleness is like actively being hindered here because they told him
to play it super straight, and so it just doesn't line up with all
the other like eighties action movies that he was doing. So yeah, two,
you basically said everything I wanted to say. This is like prime Arnold,
as in, this is when Arnold was in his prime, not this
movie. So yeah, I mean, he's in his prime, but they're
not using him maybe that that there'd be some levity with James Belushi, but
it really wasn't because he's not that funny. Yes, they could have.
They could have done like if they wanted Arnold to just be stoic, you
know, it could have been. It's hard to compare any movie against Orminator
two in Arnold ways, but like they could have, you know, did
a little bit more of that, like more like the Fish out of Water
or whatever. That said. Overall, it's not like a bad movie.
I probably won't watch it again. I'm like at a hotel and there's like
eight channels and it's on the other that are like, uh, I don't
can't think of either that or like Jurassic Park three. Then I'm fucking I'm
watching this ship again. I can tell you that much rather watch Jurassic Park
three. Well yeah, that's why no one likes you. Trust just kidding.
I like you. So all that said, I'm gonna give it a
two, all right, uh see, I I I agree with Chris or
I don't know Saturday. I was trying to figure stuff out here. We
both said the same thing. Okay, they strip him of everything that makes
him charismatic, which again like we said during the production episode, and we
said during the summary he should have liked the director, And well, I
guess the director is a writer. He should have fucking known better, like
unless, like we said, he's never seen any of Ourlands movies. That's
why people like him. But you took everything out of it. And if
you're gonna do that, you need to bring someone in like Eddie Murphy to
even it out. Yeah, someone charismatic as hell, and Jim Belushi,
isn't it at all? Like he, I don't know, they this isn't
This isn't Jim Carrey and Eternal Sunshine or even like Truman Show, you know,
or you could just not make it a comedy at all, but then
your action and your plot has to be so much better than what you gave
us. But he they it the movie got and I guess screwed by the
fact that it was like pushed as a comedy, which again, like I
get because that's how they pushed a lot the forty eight hours and it worked,
but it did not work for this one. And yeah, it's it's
fine as an actually it's not even fine as an action. It's just kind
of boring. Yeah, it's exactly. It's I don't know. I really
wanted to like this movie going into the cast, which is it feels like
a waste because the cast is like, they've got some awesome people in the
cast. You've got funny people too, like Laurence Fishman definitely knows how to
do comedy because he's like in Blackish, he's fucking great and if you get
like write him correctly. Uh, and you know Peeb's playoffs, he knows
how comedy Pere Boile does. It's just anyway, I looking at my scores,
I was like, I'll give it a two, but I'm like,
there's no way I'm gonna rate it above which one was it? It was,
uh Hercules and it's it's probably around the Hercules in New York, Maggie.
It's around that. I'd say, like, I can't rated above a
row deal because at least Rod Dea was. I mean, I wasn't a
big fan of that either, but it was more enjoyable than this, I
guess definitely. I don't know, but yes, I'm gonna go one point
five with this. So that is gonna leave Red Heat with a rating of
one point eight three three three three three well, you get the idea,
Oh God, someone smack him on the head. He's stuck him glitching.
So with the rating of one point eight three of three, that is going
to put it right below Hercules in New York, which is at a solah
two, and right above Batman and Robin, which is at one point six
six. So it still makes it better than Maggie, Sabotage, the Villain
and Aftermath, but below Raw Deal, Collateral Damage Conan the Barbarian. However,
the uh just quick reminder the top of the list, we still have
Predator at it as a four point six, Running Man is a four point
three to three, and Twins as a four point one two five. Also
a reminder that it's more Arnoldy than those last five movies. It's not necessarily
better than all of those other movies. Yes, I would probably rather watch
like a Maggie. Yes, I I mean, I I think I might.
I think I prefer the Villain over that too. I might watch the
Villain again before I watched Horse, That damn Horse. Oh yeah, I'd
watch Batman and Robin before I watch Redheat again. Oh, absolutely, I
mean to be fair, Batman and Robin is more arnoldy than see. That's
why I'm like, we need to update this list again. But that's just
me messing with it. Maybe we'll do it again at the very we could
do that at different Yeah, at the very very very end before we do
the last movie. Yeah, but we have to. I want to watch
the movies again, like Coletal Damage. I want, I really want to
watch again. And just just for our listeners, our last movie will be
just as you expected, Killing Gunther. Just be prepared for that one.
