Now you know where that came from, me and Greg started calling him that around the time that Silver Bullet came out and it just became a running joke 🙏
Jim I had an older brother who passed in 2016, alone, apparently an alcoholic, in a boarding house in Sydney.By his own choice, he alienated himself from the family,and he totally ex-communicated himself from the family until his death.During my childhood he was my primary male influence who I missed during my later development--Sadly Missed.RIP,JVL
I’m very sorry for your loss Alex, I’m the youngest of 5 and although I haven’t seen him in years we would still communicate online and via phone. Regardless of how close we were as adults there will always be a bond from childhood that will never be lost.🙏
That was a beautiful tribute to your brother. Your brother had great taste, I think Star Wars changed a lot of kids (our age) Remo Williams was tremendous and love Slap Shot. Take care my friend
Very nice tribute to your brother and his influence on your film education. Sorry for your loss. Man, most of these are some of my early movie pleasures as well: Star Wars, Scanners, Slap Shot, Westworld, Death Race 2000, etc. All movies that bringed me joy when I first watched them and still do when I rewatch them again. . Plus he introduced to Monty Python, Fangoria, and top notch horror movies. I see now where you get your love for the genre. Crazy Gary Busey! (Hagar the Horrible makes me laugh too. One of my favorite comic strips)
Greg was very instrumental to my passions in life, he also was very supportive of my drumming and even let me keep my set in his basement to practice in. Thanks as always 🙏
Hi Jim, Real sorry that your brother Greg passed away, nice & special tribute video & i"m sure he"s looking down with a smile & a thumbs up 👍. Like the story on "Night of the living dead" never seen that edition of "Scanners" never been a huge of David Cronenberg but i did like the movie. Love "Westworld" Yul Brynner must of been inspired James Cameron & Arnie, its one of my fav from Brynner"s career, i need a revisit of "Slapshot" i have in my collection & i totally agree with you, its hilarious, "Dawn of the Dead" a top 10 all time horror . Crazy Gary Busey 🤣🤣🤣, love "Total Recall" i was so lookiing to forward to & it did not disappoint at the cinema when i watched it, one of the most underrated cop action movies for me in "Point Break" & in fact i just ordered a 4K collectors edition, & a fine pairing in Patrick Swayze & Keanu Reeves.
Great job with the tribute Jim! Overall I enjoy everything here and I agree with you about Segal movies and I like some of his movies but mostly everything up until Under Siege and Part 2 is fun to watch on a non-serious level. You did a good job going through and explaining everything here!
Slap Shot is actually a franchise of films as it looks like there's a trilogy of them from what I'm looking at now. So lets see if the comedy from that film has dated and if it's still funny today. Watching now.
The other two movies were direct to video sequels, outside of three guys called the Hanson Brothers. They have nothing to do with the original classic with Paul Newman.
I watched Remo Wiliams with some fwied wice and cuwwy, it got thte splters after it lol This generation is full of sht brother, everything is racist now but you don't see any of those complaining living with the opposite race. Going to checkout Slap Shot now as I loved P. Newman I'll raise a drink to your brother.
