I'm excited enough about this movie, I'm violating my personal quarantine rules on mixing edibles and alcohol tonight, you guys.

Five minute warning, btw

If I was Gunpowder, I'd grab a screenshot of Ben Mankiewicz and introduce the movie, but thought about it too late. Maybe next week.

Shoutout to the likely three or four of you who got that reference without Googling.

Did I read the description correctly? I knew he was a bouncer with a heart, but a true gentleman with a NYU philosophy degree? This is going to be amazing.

Severe bout of technical difficulties close to the wire, but we're gonna be okay. Big win.

You can move forward a little during the opening credits.

Never realized DaveInSeattle was hiring Dalton (bolo'd).

Missed opportunity IMO to not just go ahead and name Swayze's character "Rowdy Harrington."

Horatio Sanz as the lead singer?

Always good to try to pick up a girl with a knife.

Seeing Kelly Lynch's name reminds me to look for the best link to the Murray brothers (Bill, etc.) torture of producer Mitch Glazer (her husband). The story's been told a bunch of times but always worth a re-share.

This place is out of control!!

SAM ELLIOTT????

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:08 pm

I feel like Dalton does this like once a week once the club is "established". (Luring a "tough guy" outside then ghosting him.)

Nonlinear FC · Post by **Nonlinear FC** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:09 pm

The white pants!!!

New rule: We only watch movies Giff has never seen before.

I never remember this guy's name. I don't think it ever gets mention again (the club owner).

I love the concept of "best cooler", like the Associated Press voted on in weekly.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:10 pm

Bouncer Monthly's ratings are terribly skewed towards the young, hence the debate between Dalton and Wade.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:10 pm

I like how bouncers have nationwide reputations.

He quits a job, like a boss. Give the guy that.

Nonlinear FC · Post by **Nonlinear FC** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:11 pm

Like, why make it so garbled. Tilghman?

Why?

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:11 pm

You'll note no terms of contract were discussed. Inexplicably, they DO do that later.

Giff · Post by **Giff** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:11 pm

Actually had you asked me before this "is Sam Elliott in Road House?" I'd have answered yes. But still!

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:12 pm

Dalton actually really rocking a Benz is one of my five most underrated pleasures of the movie.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:12 pm

How far did that homeless guy get in the car before being pulled over?

Nonlinear FC · Post by **Nonlinear FC** » Thu Mar 26, 2020 8:13 pm

What? WHY?

Sell the fucking Benz...

Such a weird fucking movie.
