RICK’S THROWBACK OF THE WEEK

Hackers (1995) Starring Jonny Lee Miller, Angelina Jolie, Jesse Bradford and a pre-SLC Punk Matthew Lillard Directed by Iain Softley Written by Rafael Moreu via IMDb

Beautiful, beautiful garbage. Couldn’t pass up this steaming opportunity once it reared it’s head. Good watch, it’s been at least 10 years since I last watched this turd. However it is very cinematographically (sp or wutever) pleasing to the eye. Watch Hackers if you wanna relive the clicks and beep-boops of 1990′s fictional computers and maybe even hacking a mainframe of your own. ;) Also the dude who plays the bad guy was the gay news paper writer on that one episode of ‘Sunny.

RICK’S CINEMA THROWBACK OF THE WEEK

Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) Directed by James Foley YOU NEED THE NEW FUCKING LEADS?! I WANT THE LEADS!! Well tough shit - Jack Lemmon’s old ass somehow pulled off a robbery at his own workplace and sold them, with a little help from Al Pacino. First time watching this flick all the way through, and I have to say it was incredible. However this movie would be nothing if it wasn’t for the cinematography and pacing of the story. There is only 3 sets throughout the film making the story very contained and easy to follow (if we could only get our hands on the NEW FUCKING LEADS!!!) Things to take away:

Jack Lemmon (RIP) cursing is fucking hilarious in and of itself.

Powerful Al Pacino runs shit

Kevin Spacey unqualified ass eats shit for his job

Ed Harris is a real mother fucker

Alan Arkin is a pussy

Alec Baldwin is good at algebra (A-B-C = Always Be Closing Alec Baldwin’s Cool)

Based on some stupid shit play Available on Netflix 4.5 CLOSED DEALS out of 5 I’M GOIN’ OUT

RICK’S NETFLIX PICK OF THE WEEK The Story of Film: An Odyssey (2011) Directed by Mark Cousins Available on Netflix as of 10/18 I was elbow deep in a Chicago-style Deep Dish straight watching the fuck out of some film history. A little bit of a snooZZZzzzzzzzzzzzze fest in parts but for the most part, pretty watchable, unlike most anything by Ken Burns. Deducting points for Mark Cousins Irish accent thru 15, 1-hr long episodes. 4 creepy moon-mans / 5 🌝🌝🌝🌝

RICK’S TV PICK OF THE WEEK

South Park S19 E04 - “You’re Not Yelping”

This weeks SP had my laughing so hard that it wasn’t until after it was over I noticed a solitary bead of liquid diarrhea shit running down the center of my recliner. So i said, “wow that was hilarious, i need to change my shitty sweat pants”

No spoilers, everyone begins Yelping about all the new restaurants in SP’s new Cultural District, “SoDoSoPa”, and as a result the Yelping patrons get what they deserve...

*SPOILER* It’s boogers and cum.

V funny, much laugh, so shit pants, wow.

4/5 boogers 8/10 cums
