INTRO
Oh hi,
Shhh…do you guys hear that? It’s the Flutey Tootey music of Danny Elfman. You know what that means dont’cha. That’s right. We are about to watch one of them military action thrillers that takes place in the jungle.
But before we do that… I’m gonna need some proof of life…maybe Scott could hold up his iPad with today’s FAKE NEWS or Maybe Randy could show me his hobbit feet and the latest WoW Release notes.
No wait! I got it….Ibbott…find a cure for Alzheimer’s while playing a cover of Van Morrison’s “I’ll be your lover, too”
Ahhh…that’s the stuff.
Also, no one talk about this movie in front of Dennis Quaid…ever…infinity

This movie is beautifully shot. I mean…just look at David Morse’s feet….oh the humanity for Sean Hannity…someone get that man some shoes!
Everybody knows when you hear the flutey tootey music you are going to end up in the South American Jungle.
Flutes with Drums…always in these military rain forest action flicks.
Russia is very desaturated.
Taking some Insta of my cash grandma.

This is a game….speech… Let’s get the rules straight.

Why is sister surprised his wife knows stuff.
There is turmoil in the camp… Go help the girls load the donkeys!
Alice is Alice.
Alice has her shit together.
Ha! Let’s address your Australian accent Johnny English.
“She’s a trip.” Do we still use “A trip” as a reference?
Meg Ryan thinks Convertibles are stupid.
Also, she likes Scorpions…no wait…the drug lord who was the previous owner was Scorpion…This house is cursed. Bad Juju.
Take no shit Alice. She just wants the truth.
No kidnapping insurance.
Quad Carbon has evaporated.
Mr. Fernandez….he ain’t no Russel Crowe!

Touch our money and I will pull a gun.
That mirror in that main room is getting a lot of action.
Always a Caruso in the kitchen with a shotgun
Cigarettes calm you down..apparently
Was there a plan? There is a plan!
Day 44. I want my shirt and spoon! SHIRT AND SPOON!

There it finally happened. She kissed him. SAVE ME RUSSEL CROWE! WHILE MY HUSBAND ROTS IN THE JUNGLE. FEET FIRST.
Caruso is impressed…once again.
This movie is book ended by military action. Most of it is waiting to see more updates on Peter’s feet.
Downtown One vs Uptown One.
The take down. Always brutal.
Where is Rambo?
Time to go loud.
They just about blew the whole deal by not checking the perimeter out of the outhouse.

Alright! Peter killed his nemesis!
Who saved who!
“Who am i? Who am i?” … “Your an asshole!”
“How’s my wife”…shit…did you have to ask that?
Such passion between Crowes and Ryans
