My god. We just caught the music paying over the title page on the DVD. So thoroughly eighties #OutOfGum
I choose to star the movie...now #OutOfGum
We're ignoring the film and discussing eyebrow grooming #OutOfGum
The Troll has never seen They Live before. This will be an experience #OutOfGum
Roddy Piper. A backpack. Trains. #OutOfGum
See, the opening music of They Live is bluesy and timeless. Why the hell they have eighties pop on the title screen eludes me #OutOfGum
Roddy Piper is rocking an epic mullet #OutOfGum
Roddy Piper seems to have stolen Razor Ramon's toothpick for this film role #OutOfGum
Troll: They've kinda got a village people vibe happening. Nic: That's not a bad thing #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Well hello and welcome to the gun show! #OutOfGum
@jj_irwin It kinda defeats the purpose of hiring wrestlers if you're not going to take their shirts off #OutOfGum
I believe in America says Roddy, the Canadian who spent his career playing a Scotsman #OutOfGum
For once I can say "When they remake this film" without The Flatmate disagreeing #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Typing with your fake nails, stabbing cheese cubes with your fake nails... #OutOfGum
People seem far more surprised by headaches in this film than we are in real life #OutOfGum
Me: They're at church N: You can go to church on a Friday or a Wednesday Me: They're at a *movie* church #OutOfGum
Some films have heroes who have competent. This film has a hero who stumbles over shit by accident #OutOfGum
Oh John Carpenter, you're not a *subtle* man #OutOfGum
What the fuck is that flare meant to be doing? #OutOfGum
Flatmate: The flare is establishing the hellish glow of oppression. Me: I circle back to my subtlety comment. #OutOfGum
Flatmate: Subtlety? He cast a professional wrestler as his lead. He did this *despite* having Keith David in his cast #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Watching like a gargoyle all day and somehow he doesn't see the copter till it's right above the church. This movie needs Hawkeye. #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] ...OH MY GOD Jeremy Renner for the remake. #OutOfGum
MAGIC SUNGLASSES #OutOfGum
How did we not have a Magic Sunglasses trilogy of #TrashyTuesdayMovies? #OutOfGum
Oh, right, 'cause there's only two films in the world convinced this is a good idea #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Sunglasses? I stole a box of goddamn *sunglasses*? #OutOfGum
@jj_irwin Magic Sunglasses #OutOfGum
You know, I kinda want to shop in the black-and-white supermarket #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] OBEY. CONSUME. STAY ASLEEP ...and suddenly I get a whole bunch more references in Homestuck. 80s movies ftw. #OutOfGum
And suddenly Rowdy Roddy Piper becomes Rowdy Roddy Piper #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Formaldehyde face! #OutOfGum
Short arm clothesline! #OutOfGum
On the other hand, I don't think the gun is legal in wrestling. Nor are the closed fists #OutOfGum
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass...and I'm all out of bubblegum. #OutOfGum
Flatmate: I shall turn around and walk casually in this direction. Please ignore my shotgun #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] Okay. You're fighting the forces of evil--that none of us can see without sunglasses. Sassy in the face of two guns. I like her! #OutOfGum
Weakest windows ever #OutOfGum
Flatmate: She should have hit him with a coconut though #OutOfGum
Poor Roddy. He actually looks surprised that the woman he held at gunpoint called the cops #OutOfGum
Hey, you, guy I've known for about three consecutive hours, you have to trust me and help me out after I killed some folks #OutOfGum
Fight scene starts at 53:51. We're settling in for the long haul #OutOfGum
I'm confused. Which one's the heel? #OutOfGum
I think it's Frank. He keeps throwing elbows #OutOfGum
'Course, Frank's also biting #OutOfGum
Roddy is going for the blatant choke. And he rakes the eyes #OutOfGum
Frank's going for the low blow #OutOfGum
Roddy has the foreign object #OutOfGum
I think they're both heels. That never works #OutOfGum
Piper throws the first gutwrench suplex of his wrestling career #OutOfGum
59:05 the fight-scene ends #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] But where did all the other sunglasses go? > #OutOfGum
You know what separates Piper from Hogan as a wrestler? Piper sells. #OutOfGum
Flatmate: When they remake this movie, the finisher should be a Sliced Bread #2 #OutOfGum
Troll: What happened to his swollen face? N: Beer. Troll: Of course, beer and a little sink #OutOfGum
Big tough guys putting in contact lenses. It should be a tumblr #OutOfGum
Man, they missed an opportunity when they didn't remake this against the backdrop of the Occupy movement #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] @Petermball Still ripe for Occupy, combined with climate change. Now is the time! #OutOfGum
In John Carpenter's world, everyone knows how to use a machine gun without any training #OutOfGum
Oh Roddy. "I know I held you at gunpoint, but...well, how *you* doin'?" #OutOfGum
It's a little known fact that aliens feed on the glare of crimson flares #OutOfGum
My favourite part of this film is that Al Leong has like a two and a half second cameo, and is still recognisable #OutOfGum
Flatmate: They really should have gotten Ted DeBiase for this #OutOfGum
Aliens take over the world, but they're not terribly bright or quick on the draw #OutOfGum
[jj irwin] A teleport reaction I can believe in: "I know we ain't sposed to use 'em except in cases of emergency but they're so much fun!" #OutOfGum
I'm not sure if Piper is more disappointed with Holly's betrayal or the fact that he *can't* charm a woman he held at gunpoint #OutOfGum
Troll: That's not how you ask a girl out Flatmate: I don't think he cares. Also, this relies on the aliens being very stupid #OutOfGum
On the plus side, Rowdy Roddy Piper saves the world. The man is a legend #OutOfGum
And that's the end of They Love, one of the greatest films ever made. #OutOfGum
Flatmate: That's the end of They Love? The forbidden love story between Piper and Keith David? Me: I stand by the name #OutOfGum
Next week, we continue our wrestling theme when we watch Bill Goldberg in Santa's Slay #TrashyTuesdayMovie #GodHelpUs
