I'm starting to feel like Rowdy Roddy Piper in "They Live."

1. That movie contains my second favorite fight scene.

This is my FIRST favorite fight scene:

2. That's funny. Kind of a non-violent fight scene.

The one in "They Live" is probably the longest one on one movie fight scene in Hollywood history. Lots of good wrestling stunts in it, too.

3. That's a hell of a mullet. Good cheap movie too. nt

4. Also I hate to say but that scene is not too far off from our world.

"reality" tv, over consumption as an economic policy, predatory marketing, people asleep politically....

5. The movie was made in the 80s as a reaction to Reagan's policies and American society at the time.

Seeing as how we are still living in Reagan's America, I think the movie is still relevant. Check it out if you haven't already. It's worth a couple of bucks if you can't get it for free.

6. Oh I have seen it. It is decent and has tons of political overtones. nt

7. We saw They Live at the theater

It was movie night with me and my wife and our friends and it was my turn to pick.

I never got to pick again.


Until movie rental night a few years later. I picked Shakes the Clown. Picking privileges revoked.


I still love both those movies and screw all them haters.

8. "The Bitch is back...and she's in heat" lol

9. always loved the line

"I came here to chew bubble gum and kick some ass, and I'm all outta bubble gum."

Not sure if that is the first ever use of that line, but I've heard many take-offs of that line over the years since.
