Streets of Fire (1984)

STREETS OF FIRE. A Rock & Roll Fable from another time, another place. Hmmmm- What happened here? So many delicious ABZ ingredients and yet…it sucks. Michael Paré ain’t helping anything even though Stanger loves him in EDDIE AND THE CRUISERS, has he ever mentioned it to you? What’s your phone number? he’ll text you a pic

Legit loling at the gym at Bang's famous -painters roasts on Stanger. Too fucking funny

Wasn’t it 620? My uh, friend, he lost count while watching it

A younger, better actor--at that time, maybe a Matt Dillon?--might have been able to make that visible on screen.

From your fingers to god's ears.

Man, I'm trying to find a funnier response to a post than "Nah" and I'm drawing a blank, it's that good. It maintains the status quo while sounding really cool. Also, not sure if you guys knew, it refers to something the boyz talked about so it has that "squee" factor

I think we're only a few Shadow Wolves episodes away from them reviewing The Houston 500

Scott Tammel

Yeah, nah

Trevor Dowdy

If I’m doing that much work for the movie, I should get a writers credit.

Hammerthrust Von Sexron

Nah

Hershel Greene was a poor man’s Dr. Robert Neville.

God, thanks for reminding me what a shitty season that was. Love shows where the dialogue only seems to exist to fill time until the next action sequence.

Tom Cody's performance works well if you take it like a PTSD wrecked vet, ala I Am Still Here, not all weird shit the ABZ said. Calling him by his last name would be indicative of a military identity where you are called by your last name often. The tone of Riva's telegram I think can be read as the brother and sister kinda growing up in a bad and poverty stricken environment. Tom left, drafted into the service, saw bad shit and now is just kinda this flat affect drifter who has a lot of mental wounds from his childhood and the war. Ellen Aim is 18 but it was common in the 50s for girls 13,14,15,16 to be in serious relationships / married or engaged, especially if she was from the south or midwest. I think there is a little bit of Beats/ Kerouac to Cody... He's lived the horrors of combat, he's seen the greatest minds of his generation starving and hysterical, naked, wandering this almost romantic post-war dirty pop Americana .... but it just has affected him more and he isn't so enamored with it like Raven is. A more complex and traumatic psychological background would also help explain why he is so into a girl that is much younger than him and why he isn't ready on that mature adult level to be a part of a mature professional signing career. Dafoe is so much more visually interesting, I think it is a choice to play it flat and I think the choice actually works well if you want to do a little work for the movie.

The video for “I Can Dream About You” is like stepping into an 80s Dad dream world. I love it. https://youtu.be/621Nk3Ubz4A

This is solid “what even is this movie” territory

So now we know who paid that guy to sucker punch Rick Moranis in NYC last year

Quit The Walking Dead during season 2. At the time, if I wanted to see people argue on a farm I would’ve visited my in laws.

Bob Brown

The Bernthal WTF was good, as I recall anyway.. he talked about this stuff, I didn't get Wahlberg vibes from it
