Ding ding ding ding ding, high score and welcome to a rice ball at Glitch.
Bar-cadia in Lake Havasu, Arizona. With me as always, I'm your host Andy Rice.
This is a rice ball. This is just for some fun. This is a whole extra special, you know, thing that we're doing on location live.
With my boy Austin, weirdly drove probably five-ish, six-ish hours today to be here.
It's an Austin peril.
Check me out on Limewire.
With us as always is the owner, the manager, the proprietor, the owner of Tapper.
Like if he was, if it was a video game, that's how I see him, like a little Tapper guy.
It is Kevin Wright of Glitch Bar-Cadia.
What's going on everybody? How we doing tonight?
Hell yeah, hell yeah. Thanks for having us. This is such a treat. We get to come here, we play a bunch of video games.
I set two high scores. I set two of them. I set the high score on Ms. Pac-Man and I set the high score on Moose Hunting.
Impressive, impressive for a new guy. I have about eight.
Okay, well they reset every night so you have none. I didn't see you pick up any coins tonight so suck it.
This is great. This is our second show here.
If you're unfamiliar with Glitch Bar-Cadium, I mean this just, aesthetically it's one of my favorite places to be.
Because the amount of work that they put into decorating this place to be a haven for video game and pinball enthusiasts.
And just being in generally the vibe of wanting to be in the 80s and 90s.
Which leads to our first drop of what you need to come out here and experience, which is Austin.
They're having movie Mondays. Every Monday, every week they're going to be playing a movie live.
And not only are they just playing a movie and just saying, hey everyone come watch this movie.
These movies are on fucking laser discs.
Fucking laser discs.
There's some, SLC Punk fans, there's a movie on there.
Good old quote from Mark.
Good old Mark.
I love it. Laser disc is my absolute favorite format for movie watching.
Not practically. Practically I enjoy Blu-ray 4K streaming. Let's get real.
I love just at my fingertips being able to watch anything all the time.
But if I was on a deserted island and they're like you can't get internet but we'll give you unlimited movies in what format would you like?
It would be laser disc.
And I would want to switch the disc out every hundred minutes.
It's fun playing retro video games which is like one thing this place is all about.
Why not fucking retro movies? And it's like the feeling is the same.
I have to ask, how many laser discs is Beverly Hills Cop?
One disc.
One disc? Do you flip it though?
But you have to flip it.
Of course it's a flip.
You know with the old laser discs they gave you about one hour of run time depending on compression on each side.
So movies you know in the 90s, 80s era especially you're looking at 89 minute run time.
So they found that real clever breaking point. The cliff hanger moment.
And then it just goes blank to a blue screen.
Please switch discs.
Please flip discs.
Now how many discs do you think a Titanic would run you?
I would have to say that's got to easily be a three disc parter right there.
A three disc and you think it's a flip around on all three sides? Or do you think special features would be on the back end?
You know maybe special features on one of them. You never know with James Cameron. He likes to sneak those in wherever he can.
Did they not make a giant life size, not life size but almost like one half or one third scale Titanic but only half of it?
And what they did was they filmed that half and then they would flip the screen, flip it around to make it look like...
Just a facade.
Yeah.
A movie magic Hollywood baby.
If you build one half and it's perfect and the other half of the ship is the same then you're like yeah you could just glue it together using visual effects.
It's kind of cool.
Yeah this place is awesome. The pinball is amazing.
And they just got a new sponsor, Weeby Pop.
Yeah I bought three bags.
I bought three bags myself. They got just a good size bag of popcorn.
Yeah for five bucks I was expecting a higher price point.
Different flavors. They even went out of their way and made little glitch labels for it.
I love it.
So this is the glitch dill pickle.
I'll tell you one thing.
Cheesy ranch.
I can already tell. Oh loaded baked potato. There was loaded potato. There's like dill pickle. I can already tell though but one pet peeve I have about popcorn.
This avoided and there's no kernels in there.
I don't see any kernels in there at all.
That is big puffy pieces all the way down to the fucking bottom of the bag. It's a clear bag. They show you every kernel you're fucking getting. I respect that.
They are sticking it to big popcorn.
Dude they are because I'll tell you what. You go to anything. You even get, you go to the store and you go get yourself even pip corn or something like a high end shark tank popcorn.
Pirate's booty.
Yeah pirate's booty and then at the bottom you still have crunchy fucking kernel bits. Wasted space. These look amazing.
Matt and Crystal man over at Weeby Poppin. They are the best in the biz of what they do and we couldn't be happier to pair up with them.
You know to do our movie Monday night and what goes better with you know old classic movies than good just local popcorn.
And then of course you know flashback toys and collectibles pairing up with us. Providing the laser disc collection you know to help out with mine what I've got.
And also as well letting us borrow the player and also just coming down here and supporting us for those movie nights.
It's just been awesome to have Cherise and Matt also from flashback toys and collectible down here.
I love them down there. I love going down there and just seeing what they got and I always leave with at least three things.
Fuck yeah. Have you ever done anything with Big Mike certified out here?
I have not.
He runs the Comic Con in town.
Okay.
Or is that Kingman?
That sounds like we should.
I'm so sorry that's Kingman but it's still close enough.
No.
No maybe we should still shake hands and rub elbows.
Yeah you set up a booth or something there. I mean I don't know what what I mean you sell your fucking merch for sure but yeah I don't know.
The Comic Con out here is pretty good.
You know me Comic Con that's right up my alley as well so.
They let us do comedy and a podcast there.
They did.
In front of children so they're great people.
They've done let us do it. They've done it. We've done it twice.
Oh yeah two years. I didn't make the last one.
Yeah but twice after the first one where we're like it's in front of kids we were doing it but yeah it's fucked up.
We reviewed Mark Wahlberg Planet of the Apes after you just had a giant tangent earlier today on a previous episode.
About Planet of the Apes.
This is episode four of the day of podcasts we've recorded because we just want to bring content to you the viewer.
I'm pointing and there's no camera but I'm pointing to you the viewer.
Yeah this is we started off with a regular fried rice a little move a little behind the scenes was us.
We started our Halloween specials that we're going to well pre record and then release which yeah well don't worry about it because those haven't been announced yet officially.
And then we did we were lucky enough to do a guest spot on our sister podcast our brother podcast our friend podcast.
Completely compromised.
That was a fucking lovely shit show and I loved every second of it.
You get to see us be dirty fucks for an hour.
I usually edit us and we've been pretty the last episode we did a fried rice podcast I said I'd eat Clearman's cheese spread out of someone's baked asshole.
And I still think that was holding back compared to what happened on completely compromised so find that episode with us on it and it'll go it'll you'll change your mind about us.
Andy got a cease and desist letter from Ted Cruz today.
Please stop talking about stop introducing yourself as he teamed up with Clearman's cheese.
Yeah.
Big old lawsuit.
Clearman Clearman and Cruz versus rice.
Clearman's cheese spread versus rice would be just a funny thing if people didn't know that I was right.
If they just thought food wise it was a cheese spread suing a fucking other food.
I kind of want to make like a cheesy rice burrito with Clearman's cheese and just a really good rice.
Interesting cheesy rice.
I don't know about that.
Clearman's cheesy right.
I wouldn't waste the clearance but whatever I mean I stuck it in an air fryer and it worked.
Nothing bad happened.
I might have to try that.
That doesn't sound like a bad idea.
That might even be the way to go.
It'll crisp up the I think we need to talk about Clearman's every episode.
You brought it up motherfucker.
All right well let's get into the fucking what this was all about.
So the movie Monday was this the first one flashback movie Monday was Beverly Hills Cop.
This was actually our third that we did so Beverly Hills Cop was our third nice fun thing that we do is we pick the first three movies of the month and then every time you show up week one week two week three you get to cast a vote between two movies.
And so this time around it was Coneheads and Mars Attacks Mars Attacks wins out.
So our fourth week will actually be coming up.
It'll be Mars Attacks and then Coneheads rolls into next month and gets voted up against with something else.
So kind of stays in that mix for a little bit.
But yes this was our third one and then actually you know gearing up after going into July.
What better way to launch you know fourth of July season than Independence Day.
So we'll be having to show that as well.
So those are the next two Mars Attacks coming up this Monday and then Independence Day the following.
We did Mars Attacks a couple months ago and that's a fucking fun movie.
It's one of Tim Burton's best in my opinion.
I mean there's so many cameos. You could how could you not love it.
I've watched that movie so many times since I was a kid and I had no idea that Jack Nicholson played two different characters.
Oh I know. I did not know he was the guy that ran the casino.
What a mindfuck. I agree. That what a great. That was a that was a fun time.
So the third flashback movie Monday that they have done was Beverly Hills Cop.
And what we're going to do hopefully is release this episode the same day that Beverly Hills Cop 4 comes out.
The newest one the new Axel Foley Beverly Hills Cop Axel Foley I think is what it's called.
So we're going to release it right then.
So you're welcome. People in the world that are listening to this at that time.
We have a physical copy of the laser disk in my hand right here.
Hold on one second. All right.
And just like that with editing magic we're back.
I don't even think we have to get announced that it was editing.
I was going to smooth just make it like continue talking.
That's funny. Anyways yeah I forgot my notebook.
I'm back. The movie Beverly Hills Cop.
I don't know my notes pulled up as to like when it came out.
I have I have the original laser disc right here in my hand and I'll do a 1984 105 minutes rated R.
Eddie Murphy's hilarious portrayal of Detective Axel Foley has propelled Beverly Hills Cop into the ranks of the top 10 biggest box office hits in history.
Foley's brash street smart Detroit detective who follows the trail of a friend's murder to the posh surroundings Beverly Hills.
And before Axel gets his man he gets up to his neck in an international network of smugglers and drug peddlers.
It's a fast paced adventure that proves the difference between really good comedy and a great comedy is Eddie Murphy.
Can I hold that. I just touch it. Yeah you can hold it right here in your hand.
I just want to. It's beautiful. Oh my god. Just holding a laser disc again.
Careful. Don't look at it for too long. Why?
It'll make me. You just can't. Like the covenant. Arc of the Covenant.
Late stereo laser video disc for all digital sound paramount.
I love the pictures artwork man. You buy this to.
I love it. They have closed caption on here. You can turn on subtitle.
Storing a cool dry. We all know how much you love subtitles Andy. I hate it.
Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. So love the love the laser disc. Let's talk about the movie.
So right off the jump street. I don't like Axel Foley.
I think he's a dickhead. I think he's he's he's too flippant and mean to everyone he meets.
He's someone I wouldn't want to be around. I kind of hate everything about his character.
When he's dealing with the criminals that he's trying to bust. Oh you mean.
Hold on. My first note is is he did that drug bust without clearing it.
He should be in court defending his illegal actions was the very first thing I wrote.
You're not allowed to as a police officer abuse your power and just go on random drug busts.
At that point he's just a drug dealer and the amount of damage that his fucking chase cost the city.
His he should have been on the spot fired without pay suspension until they can do internal affairs and find out what the fuck fully is going on.
And you think this is just the beginning. Well this is this is the 80s and Detroit.
Oh I forgot it was Detroit. No no listen. I'm just saying he was told to stay away.
He should listen. That's my whole thought on him basically in the movie.
He goes to the hotel right. For some reason he picks a hotel that's good. That's so expensive.
I don't understand what his con was on that. I think he just started this hating Axel Foley.
I have so many notes and none of them have anything to do with Axel Foley upbeat music with depressing visuals right when you start the movie.
What were the depressing visuals. Just just this beaten down just destroyed place.
All these poor people on Detroit that old guy that they zoom in on he has just like a giant like cancer lobe in his face.
You could see it. And then the second note was ridiculously large topside sirens during the chase scene.
Did you see it looks like something at a robot. It's like a drum a barrel drum with a light on it.
Sure because it had the little siren built in or whatever. I think it was that like a big siren. Huge on top of these cars.
And why were they even needed to be there. It's because Foley was just causing fucking chaos.
Also Axel Foley's lieutenant is black me when I first started doing comedy.
He has my exact get up of suit pants with a suit vest but no overcoat. That's great.
Does he black me. So he gets put on suspension after he gets told to go on vacation.
Yeah after his friend Dollar Tree Tommy Versetti gets killed in his apartment.
Also all this noise going on there's all these doors. Nobody nobody says a damn thing.
Yeah there's a lot of that in this book. Also did you see that the guy who kills his friend is Jonathan motherfucking Banks from Breaking Bad.
Oh of course. Yeah. Oh my old man Mike. I noticed old man. I noticed Mike the real old man Mike the real cello.
The real real chill. Fuck you Mike. You bitch. You bitch. If you're listening to this you're a bitch that we love.
Okay so he goes on vacation goes to Beverly Hills where the majority of this movie he drives his clunker Chevy Nova 2000 miles to be in drives on the valet gives it to the valet which I love.
That was a funny scene. I'm not saying that there's not funny moments there are but he was a dick to the valet kind of nice but still kind of a dick.
But when he goes into the hotel and just lies to them about being a Rolling Stones fucking reporter and then pulls the race card on them just to wiggle his way into this.
Getting a room here. I thought what a fucking asshole if I worked at that hotel and there was a guy that walked in and just started fucking demanding things being all fucking mean and shit like like we walked in here and demanded we do a podcast.
You asked.
So yeah I put a yeah I just put pulling the race card in this hotel lies about his idea ID is is actually the bad guy.
He's he's like there's like a list of 100 best movie characters of all time and actual Foley is like number 75 does he get better the sequels.
Oh the sequels get better and better I don't remember Beverly Hills cop to that much but Beverly Hills cop three is like one of my all time favorite movies ever.
Everyone is telling this dude to stop trying to investigate this everyone everyone is saying Foley stop trying to investigate this murder.
He needs to fucking stop is what I'm just thinking like please stop because him going rogue was fucked up bananas in the tailpipe.
That's taxpayers have to like pay for that that's city property damage.
Well we got to we got to remember we're releasing this on the day that the new movie is out so the new movies out you're probably watching this after the new movie.
Yeah it was cut for I hope that he goes back to Beverly Hills and you remember the scene in the first one where the two gay guys are walking past him and he starts keeling over laughing because they're like wearing matching outfits.
I don't remember the part but yeah they're wearing like the leather jackets like the oh yeah the ones he wears in his comedy show.
Yeah and he just like I remember that I just hope that they like redo that scene where he goes back to Beverly Hills and walks past two gay guys but it's just way gay or just super like super gay like thong but cheeks everything and it's the same exact.
It is a pride parade he walks down a pride parade and he sees them and he goes and it just he wants to laugh but he doesn't they edited so he's like oh that's great.
Oh yeah that's wonderful I love it.
He impersonates a federal officer.
He runs a red light during traffic super dangerous.
51 minutes and 30 seconds Mike.
Titties.
So when the chick is being interrogated when it's okay so his blonde friend when she's being interrogated by the bad dude, the main bad guy.
She does the very very obvious. I'm an actress lying like my character is lying right now and me and struggling to come up with a convincing enough lie, and you see it in her face.
I hate that in movies fucking hate it like we are smart enough as an audience that if if so for instance, if if you were the, the, or if the chick saw fully went to his apartment or his hotel they hung out or whatever and then this guy comes in he's like,
what is this chick doing to you as you see fully at the hotel, her just being like, no, and like selling it, because why would she then freeze start looking side to side get all sweaty like maybe wipe her brow go.
No, I haven't seen him.
That's so fucking obvious and I hate it. I'm just, I didn't like that one grab I had was, how were these two guys going to rob the strip club was it like a train car robbery they're just gonna let everyone line up and give us everything in your pockets.
What that was insane what were they in, were they involved with anything or is that just for fun. They look like they kind of made them look at like some cronies like some druggy dudes that just these two guys had a wild idea.
Like, why did fully go there specifically because he knew it was going to get right he just he wanted to make friends with Haggard and the other. I forget who he's like one of my favorite characters in the movie the dopey cop and Haggard,
the hard as you're talking about a judge Reinhold.
He's great. The little, the little guy. I love him.
He breaks and enters into a place.
He gets arrested for that. When he finds the cocaine, get arrested for the lot of things. Yeah, Beverly Hills. That's the whole charm allure of the movie. Sure, he does cocaine.
It's just this pinky into it and does it by gums and if you don't think that that doesn't count. You haven't done cocaine. Have you ever seen Boondock Saints to.
Yeah, remember when he like dips his pinky and he's like touches do he's like that's heroin and he's like, how the fuck would you know fuck you I know shit.
The Eddie Murphy also did the movie Pluto Nash.
He should get arrested for that. Yeah, okay. Okay. I agree with you there. I've seen that once and only once.
He okay so I was kind of skipping to the end here a little bit when the phone they raid the mansion without announcing that their police officers, and they start shooting people, the people in that mansion have every right to defend themselves with fully automatic rifles if that's what they have to have probable cause because they had belief that there was doesn't matter.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it doesn't matter. They didn't have a search warrant for secret, like undercover breach. What I'm saying it was that they kidnapped a woman and they know the woman's in that house, but they should have called in for backup, because they would have made official and then they also
should have announced that they were police.
That's what they got shot at they didn't they waited so long they killed several guys before announcing they were police, like that's going to get thrown out in court, what's a what's the dopey cops name again, Judge Reinhold, Judge Reinhold.
He, as soon as in the middle of all this chaos that you're talking about. He just rises up into frame and says drop it, and then just headshots a guy. And that was my favorite part of the movie, this fucking dope just like, drop it.
Boom, just fucking awesome.
That was, he still didn't announce that he was a police officer though.
It's all I'm saying is if I was a guard, getting paid a good salary because this, this art dealers into some criminal shit. I'm not a criminal myself I'm just a guy being paid to guard an expensive mansion.
All of a sudden, I see three dudes walking through holding guns, and then I look up and I see that they've shot people no one's yelled out anything about being a police officer.
And I'm like, oh my god I start shooting. Like, I would get away with that, my defense attorney would be like, of course, he was just defending the property that's what he was paid there to do what are your police officers doing without announcing their police officers, having a search warrant, coming in through the back, like fucking jumping over walls and shit just fucking ridiculous like terrible police work.
Officer Rice, just chill. Okay, I'm sorry.
Judge Reinhold is delightful. That's my last note. He is great, the whole movie. I'm glad that he's in the other two movies. And I think he's, I think he's even in the new one that's releasing today.
Yeah, I love it. I'll probably watch the other, the other three.
Two I can't really speak for, I don't remember it that well because the rewatch for me is always three, so you'll really enjoy three.
I think you'll probably think of many more ways for, I think you should come up with a sentence for Axel Foley. Yeah, after this fourth movie is just how many years he should get for all the crimes he's committed, honestly, because it was in the line of duty, at least according to him and he is a cop in another in good standing in a different city.
I'm going to be lenient.
But that doesn't mean he's not going to serve jail time. A lot of these I'm willing to just go fines on and maybe do some like time served maybe some limited, some limited fine edge.
But bro, running that red light and going straight through oncoming traffic was so dangerous and unnecessary just to outrun some police that caught up to him moments later.
It's reckless. Axel Foley is a danger to fucking society. I think his music is awesome, but he shouldn't be allowed to have a gun and start random investigations whenever he wants.
Perhaps the movie then from your opinion would be like a good like training video for new like recruits in the, in the force to just the do's and don'ts.
Don't be a Foley. Yeah, I mean, I feel like there's a lot of note taking that could be done on. Like you said, the collateral damage that he brought was almost like, you know, like it was like the Godzilla Detroit, you know, fuck it.
Dude, the name of that instructional video is the folly of Foley.
The folly is a Foley and it's to avoid his mistakes and you watch it and all it is is a smash cut of all of the city property that he's fucking destroying and all of the lives that are probably.
Could you imagine if just like you're just driving and then all of a sudden you get caught up in this explosively violent police chase, you get your car gets fucked up.
You're like shit, you have to go through insurance the whole thing. It sucks. And then you find out later you're like, okay, well what happened? Why did what what was the case?
Well, we just had a cop that decided to go do a drug bust one day. What? Like you guys didn't sanction it? I'm just saying he's a dickhead. Okay.
Well, I, I, that was my opinion of it all. I think it's very much a shoot five times. Ask questions later. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, okay, but it's funny as fuck when they threw him out of that window instead of out of the door.
The door was right there. Yeah. I was expecting them to throw him out of the door when he went through the window. I fucking laughed so hard.
That was like one of the best moments of the entire fucking movie. The movie is so fun up until just right into that window and then it just becomes very real after that. It's sad.
Yeah, I was expecting more of a comedy. It has to stand on its own two legs after that. Like you're having fun.
Like, oh, look at him like walking through Beverly Hills, making fun of the gay guys and and doing all this fun stuff.
As soon as he gets thrown through that window, that was a good laugh. As soon as he gets thrown through that window, the rest of the movie, like it has to be like hyper and and comedy.
And like it has to every little bit you're paying attention to to like stay tuned into it.
And I think that's that's what made the movie really great for me is that like after all the fun, glamoury parts of it are over, it's still able to stand on its own two feet.
It's kind of a love letter slash fuck you letter to Beverly Hills. It's got a lot of Orange County, L.A. stuff, which is cool.
Yeah. So we're at about a half an hour. This is a rice ball. So I have some fun facts about this movie.
Let's hear them. When they this movie was like almost doomed from the start.
They had directors pass on it. They had people get fired from it. Eventually, they got Saturday Night Live director to direct it.
Original casting for Axel Foley went in this order before they decided on Eddie Murphy.
OK, let me picture it. Mickey Rourke, James Kahn. That's when they were going more serious, I'm assuming.
Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Richard Pryor, Robin Williams and John Travolta.
It's funny. I could see what they were doing. It's like Beverly Hills cop, gritty cop from Detroit comes to Beverly Hills and just fucks their shit up.
It's all pretty people dealing with a badass cop. Let's get Robert De Niro in here. Let's get fucking Mickey Rourke in here.
And then who was the other badass guy? Al Pacino, Al Pacino, De Niro. And then it's like, then it's like, I already got a different idea.
How about Richard Pryor? What? Let's make it a comedy. Oh, it's a good thing.
We wouldn't have had a fourth movie if we went with him. I think the whole thing probably just some dude was in a music studio and he heard the
and he's like Beverly Hills cop. Just came up with it right there because of the music.
I have a few other facts and then one that's my final finisher fact. The song.
That song got a Grammy and it was number one on the billboard for a while when this movie came out.
Yes, dude. This movie beat Ghostbusters in the box office.
This movie was the highest grossing R rated movie and it held that record for 19 years. And you know what movie beat it?
Oh, hold on. Let me guess. Let me guess. I'm going to take an educated guess before you give it to me.
This came out in 1984. Yeah. It held the record for 19 years.
Looking at 2000 and what? 13? No, 2003. 2003. R rated. Oh, Hangover.
Nope. Oh, wait. Hold on. If it's not the Hangover, then it's got to be.
I don't think you're going to guess it. It's a sequel. I'll give you a hint. It's a sequel. OK. OK.
It broke the box office record. The sequel rated R 2003.
Is it a sequel for a movie that came out relatively close to the first one? Pretty close. Yeah. OK.
So it's not like one of those grand reboot ones. No, there's there's this is the sequel.
Also, there's a third movie after it. Yeah. So then Matrix Reloaded. Yeah. There you go.
That was pretty good. Yeah. Then that's not even the blow you away fact.
Well, I mean, it kind of blows me away. Yeah, a little bit. Matrix One didn't beat it.
The one with the two. That's crazy. White dreaded guys. Well, no, but you got to think.
Matrix One came out. No one knew what the fuck they were getting into.
I think it did great. But I think after everyone had seen one, they were like,
we know what we're getting into. Let's everybody go see two. Right.
That makes sense. OK. And then three was the actual good one.
But so Sylvester Stallone wanted to get in on this script.
And so he wrote his own script for Beverly Hills Cop.
And it was going to star him Sylvester Stallone.
Except instead of Axel Foley, it was going to be Axel Cabretti. Oh, and there was so much gore.
And once again, Judge who? Dredd. No, Judge.
The character. Sorry, Ryan Hold. Judge Ryan Hold. Judge Ryan Hold.
Dies in the beginning, gets murdered. Oh, shit. There's just gore.
And instead of the lady who runs the out gallery being his friend, it's a love interest.
And they were like, look, that's way too gory, way too crazy.
We don't want that for Beverly Hills Cop. So Sylvester Stallone took his script and made it into the movie Cobra.
Have I seen Cobra? I might have seen Cobra, dude.
Like that makes sense now that you've mentioned. Yeah, Kevin's holding up laser laser disk of Cobra.
Of course, we keep a laser disk around here to explain to those young kids who have no idea what a laser disk is.
And a copy that we actually happen to keep on hand is Sylvester Stallone's Cobra.
Motherfucker. It reads, crime is a disease. Meet the cure. Stallone. Cobra.
It's pretty much Judge Dredd before Judge Dredd. Yeah, the strong arm of the law.
Fuck yeah, dude. He looks like everything I've ever wanted.
The beginning of this movie is like the best scene you'll ever see.
And it makes you go, dude, look at him. He's so fucking cool. Does he go to prison? No.
Is he a cop in that one? He's a cop. Does he go to? He's a renegade cop that doesn't play by the rules.
But he doesn't go to prison. No. What's the movie where Stallone, is it Stallone goes to prison and him and another dude break out?
I think you're thinking a face-off with Nicolas Cage. What's the, wait, hold on, Tango and Cash. Who's in Tango and Cash?
Mel Gibson. Is that Mel Gibson? It's not Stallone and some black dude?
No. Stallone and, cause he's the bad, it doesn't matter. Doesn't fucking matter. Starsky and the Hunch?
I love, I like Tango and Cash. Cobra is a badass movie. I hope we get to review it one day.
If it's on Tubi, just keep it in mind. It's on Netflix right now, I think.
Okay. It's funny that you know what streaming service Cobra is on in the back.
Well, yeah, when we did the Die Hard episode, my first episode with you guys, I wanted to suggest Cobra cause I didn't know about the Tubi rules.
Oh, okay. And Brennan suggested Cobra and I was like, fuck, you took mine. And everybody, we went around 12 people that episode.
12 people on a podcast. Yeah. Crazy. What did they all vote for? They all voted for movies. Goonies?
I was like, okay, someone voted Cobra, I'm gonna pick this movie. And then the next person voted for that movie.
And each fucking person, until it got to me, and I'm like, you guys took all my picks. I don't have a movie.
So wait, what got picked? After Guns of Kimbo by Brennan.
Oh, okay. It could have been Cobra. It could have changed the whole fucking, the whole everything.
So, yeah, I'm ready to rate this thing, I guess.
Okay, I'll go first with a big fat D+.
You're not gonna like mine. I gave it a D+. So our rating scale, just so that you're aware, our rating scale goes from B,
cause we're fucking idiots, it goes from B, B+, if you're feeling spicy, down to F, and then we have W, if it's a waste of fucking time.
So D is not that bad. It's in the C range if you're looking at it from an A to F scale.
But yeah, I'm going high D+, only because I think he did more harm than good.
Those drugs are gonna get out on the street anyway. I don't think he had to kill as many people to get them off the street.
But he got revenge for his friend. Who cares? His friend shouldn't have been working for a drug dealer.
So D+, B+, so what are you gonna give it, Kevin?
Somebody murdered your friend Andy Rice, Austin. What are you gonna do? Oh, D+, dude. D+, I'm Beverly Hills Cop.
First off, if I do get murdered, just real quick, if I ever get murdered, don't come avenge me. I don't want you to get hurt to avenge me.
No, I'm gonna hire Foley to avenge you. Obviously, he's the mercenary to hire.
He turns in his grave like, no, more people are gonna suffer.
You know what I want Beverly Hills Cop 4 to be? It's a retired Foley. He has a private eye business.
And then someone hires him to find their missing cat. And then he racks up 30 bodies and destroys a public park and half of a hospital on his way to find the cat.
But he gets the cat and he's still a good guy at the end.
I feel like we can incorporate Ace Ventura into that then.
Fuck yeah, dude. I would do totally another sequel. Ace Ventura, Beverly Hills Ventura, something. Oh, fuck yeah. Why not, dude?
Why can't we just do smash some fucking multiverse movies together? People would love that shit.
Like, imagine if Coneheads met ET, if there was like, if they just gave us like a 30 minute TV special or whatever.
Since we were literally voting between Mars Attacks and Coneheads, what a good mashup there, right? Yeah. I mean, come on.
That would be great. Like, what were the Coneheads during when Mars Attacks, when Mars attacked? Right. Where were they?
Yeah. What were they doing on their home planet? These fucking guys. But then they go back home and he has to do that weird fight the Centaur thing, that monster.
That was so great with the golf, wins the day. And distracts everybody with a soft sell song.
Wait, which one? Tainted Love? Yeah. Oh yeah. Fuck yeah. So what do you give Beverly Hills Cop?
You know, I'm going to have to go in with a solid B on it. It's definitely a classic in there for a lot of reasons.
I mean, there's, yeah, you know, nitpick across the board. I mean, that's the fun of it. But truth be told, though, the song, the heat is on.
Come on. That alone, the soundtrack, I think just bumps it from a D to a B for me. Classic 80's soundtrack.
Classic 80's soundtrack. I mean, Grammy winning classic 80's soundtrack, apparently. So I'm going to go with a solid B on that one for you, Andy.
OK, no, I like it. We got a solid B. It's a good soundtrack. You said B plus. I said D plus.
So we're going to go. It's either B minus or C plus. It's Beverly Hills Cop. I think I'm feeling generous. We're going to go with a B minus.
All right. So B minus, because I feel like I feel like I'm just being stupid and fun.
It really is. It's like if you're looking for like a fun. Put in the background sort of action movie where when you pay attention, there's always kind of something funny or interesting going on.
I think it's great. It's not like something you have to super pay attention to. I don't think. Absolutely. Just a big shoot them up film.
I mean, I hope the sequels are a little bit more in depth. Maybe maybe more shit happens.
But. Yeah, overall, B minus from Fried Rice Podcast, the rice ball special again, Kevin Wright.
Thank you so much for having us at Glitch Arcadia. No, thank you guys so much.
I mean, Fried Rice Podcasts. Amazing what you guys do again, keeping the retro movies alive.

You know, and all the other events you guys have here. Fucking awesome. What's that?
What's the one that that that you were telling me that I wanted to go to? Oh, the 29th rave.

One of them, obviously, Corey, my business partner as well is going to be spinning up there.
But yeah, bring your old kickwearers, Jinko jeans, visors, raver candy. I think, you know, a little bit of air after.
