Amazons Vs. Supermen

I broke the glass and grabbed the Emergency Movie Post! Holy crap I could barely sit through 15 minutes of Dick Dynamite: 1944. Click the link and see if you can take it, if you dare. So what are we watching tonight instead? Probably the most crazy Italian goofball movie ever. It was originally entitled Super Stooges vs. the Wonder Women for release in America. Who knows why. Somebody did too much coke and renamed it.

Tonight the brief summary of the movie comes from Movie Misfit, courtesy of IMDB. Thank you, Movie Misfit! I have been working non stop and needed your assistance:

Produced in collaboration with the mighty Shaw Brothers studios, you can certainly see the influence the Hong Kong giants had on Italian cinema of this time, and if there wasn’t so much white flesh kicking about and ridiculous comedy sequences, you could definitely mistake it for a bizarre, Chang Cheh directed kung fu epic.

Now – don’t take my words and twist them!

What I mean is the ascetic of it all – the large cast, the wild sets, crazy characters, violent training sequences and mad weapons. The opening 10 minutes alone is an army of Amazonian women beating the hell out of each other before introducing us to one of the Supermen in a whacky (but fun) teahouse-style fight reminiscent of any amount of 70’s kung fu comedies…

Excellent work sir. Should we ever be in Vegas at the same time, I shall get you a drink special. What Movie Misfit also pointed out is that this is in fuzz-o-vision. I am not sure any amount of video cleanup is going to make this better. If you have glasses on, just take them off. If you don’t have glasses, put on your friend’s glasses. You’ll both see the same thing.

So watch! Or Don’t! Everything is voluntary! Next week, I hope to have rested a bit. And we will watch Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, unless the preview of that is equally horrendous as Dick Dynamite: 1944. I have low expectations folks, and I fear it may be beneath even my bar.

    Holy Minimoog, Batman!

    • R.J.

      Looks like it plays the whole movie! That’s Moog abuse!

  2. Common Tater

    IDK, with a name like Dick Dynamite how bad could it be?

    • R.J.

      It just didn’t work. I will keep trying to get newer films but it feels like the pot is getting mighty low.

      Speaking of, did you hear Universal has made a live action remake of How to Train your Dragon? I suppose there are no more new stories to tell.

      • Common Tater

        I had not heard that, probably was on Pop Culture Crisis, but I forgot. All this remake, reboot, prequel, sequel shit.

      • rhywun

        I thought that was a JK Rowling joint for some reason.

        Anyway the Burger King commercial has been running approximately every five minutes on every fucking channel I could care to tune in to so yeah, I am somewhat aware of this fucking thing.

      • R.J.

        I have been busting tail at work for weeks, so I didn’t see it until today. Wish I hadn’t.

      • Sean

        Crabs!

        busting tail at work

        Been angsty this week cuz supposed to re-start the job after a long disability – and my laptop doesn’t work so I’m waiting for them to mail me a new one.

        No update today at all. I called support and “Mike” or “Joe” or whatever he claimed his name was said the machine is “probably” still being configured.

        Which means, as usual, I will be spending at least a day installing the software I know I will need. Which is looking like Monday. 😠

      • groat scotum

        Been angry all these years over some dude on long-term disability cuz he’s been a dick to me, and his laptop doesn’t even work. And now he’s installing software on a Monday.

      • The Hyperbole

        Right, fuck these studios for trying to give people more of what they liked.

      • Fourscore

        “How to Train your Dragon? ”

        I read that as How to Drain your Dragon.

        WTF, Every guy knows how to do that, it goes with the territory

        They didn’t lock your computer down so only they can install software remotely?

      • rhywun

        They didn’t lock your computer down so only they can install software remotely?

        Yes, but there is a selection I can choose from that is allowed to be installed.

  3. Common Tater

    “Super Stooges vs. the Wonder Women”

    That’s what I got, blu-ray rip that looks way better than tubi, but the tubi version has subs, that I couldn’t find anywhere. Law seems no different than chaos.

  4. Common Tater

    Also, if I stop making sense, I got a bunch of shit at city hall done, so I started drinking a 12-pack of modelo around 4, and I think I have one beer left.

    • R.J.

      Well done. I broke down and had a beer a minute ago. Been redoing my office and moved some gigantic cabinets down to the curb. Back breaking. My office looks less like a garage room now.

    • rhywun

      11 beers would put me in the hospital.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        I’d be under the host at least. 😉

  5. Common Tater

    “What Movie Misfit also pointed out is that this is in fuzz-o-vision.”

    I just looked at the tubi version. Which is like VHS. The one I have looks good for a low budget from 1974.

    • R.J.

      It’s like somebody pointed a camera at the tv and recorded it onto digital. Through a screen door.

      • Common Tater

        Mine is as good as Texas Chainsaw Massacre or Cannibal Holocaust. Looks like low-budget analogue.

      • Ted S.

        I watched A Lady to Love some months back. As you can see around the 19:50 mark, their print has a TCM bug!

      • Common Tater

        The ghost of Robert Osborne?

  6. Ted S.

    I watched The Hidden today.

    • R.J.

      Did you find it?

    • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

      I found him, Jesus is in the trunk!

    • slumbrew

      I remember liking that movie quite a bit.

  7. R.J.

    The elderly hero looks like a bag of sticks.

  8. Tres Cool

    Good Lord.

  9. Tres Cool

    Have we done “Italian Spiderman” and I missed it?

    • ron73440

      Is that better than the Italian Batwoman?

    • R.J.

      Yes

      • R.J.

        And yes it barely edges out Batwoman. It’s close.

      • ron73440

        Batwoman was a fun one.

      • R.J.

        It was.
        How are you doing tonight?

      • Common Tater

        Well, it had a hot Italian broad. Sophia Lauren, Gina Lolabrigitta, Monica Bellucci. But what have they done for us lately? I suspect the Italians are holding out on us.

      • ron73440

        So far so good.

        About to go to sleep.

        4 nights of being woken up to get my blood pressure checked every 4 hours is exhausting.

        Especially since I would have trouble falling asleep afterwards for a couple hours, so the longest I slept straight was 3 hours.

      • R.J.

        Sounds slightly better. I hope we can all give you some entertainment tonight.

  10. The Hyperbole

    Larry Fine and Iggy Pop tag teaming Lynda Carter and Gal Gadot might sound good on paper but I’m gonna take a pass on this one.

    • Tres Cool

      I’d watch that for a dollar.

  11. Sean

    I finished Fountain of Youth on Apple tonight. Meh. Slick editing, decent action, can’t get over JK as an action star.

    Natalie is still a would. I suppose.

    • Tres Cool

      Natalie Would?

      • DrOtto

        She’ll wash up on the shore tomorrow.

      • Ted S.

        And Tab wouldn’t.

  12. DrOtto

    It would be hilarious if Trump tried deporting Musk now since he overstayed his visa in the 90’s.

  13. groat scotum

    Finally finished the Flashman series. Mark Steyn had the Afghanistan war sounded out well before the Biden evacuation, via Fraser, though well after Elphinstone’s long-bemoaned retreat.

    I was a little sad about finishing the Flashman papers, but only a little bit. There’s no possible way they’d be very satisfying on the whole, given that you’re reading the supposed diaries of this mercenary opportunist who lived long enough to write the aforementioned papers. They’re written by the man who lived long enough to write them! So there’s not much drama in whether the auhtor lives long enough

    You get the point. And yet it’s still a little sad to wrap up the series. And I think I’ll live awhile longer thinking about Flashman whenever I visit India (which I would never, on account of Flashman) or the Balkans (which I will never, on account of Flashman) or Madisascar (which I will never, on account of Flashman) or the east indies (which I will never, on account of Flashman) or Louisiana, etc.

    I may go up to visit Bent’s Fort someday, which featured in one of the novels.

    • Furthest Blue pistoffnick (370HSSV)

      India … the Balkans … Madigascar … the east indies … or Louisiana …

      I want to eat my way through ALL those places!

      • groat scotum

        Not sure but what Flashman represents of Bent’s fort is readily believable.

  14. Common Tater

    I propose a 10% tariff until we get more hot Italian broads.

      • slumbrew

        In before Pie arises from his deathless slumber: she’s Romanian (Catrinel Menghia).

        And, good lord, would.

    • R.J.

      Hear hear!

    • cavalier973

      A tariffini for bikini?

  15. Mojeaux

    I am not a graphic designer. In fact, I don’t have a lick of design instinct in me.

    • R.J.

      Me make funny GIFs. That’s about the extent of my artistic talent.

    • Fourscore

      Good luck with the redistribution of relatives, Moj.

      • Mojeaux

        Thanks, Fourscore! All I care about is my mom gets her money. What Susie and Millie do is made exponentially more difficult for them by their idiocy. Furthermore, if they’d not started screeching like banshees immediately, we would have commiserated with the necessity and helped them do everything.

        They offend my sense of efficiency.

  16. Mojeaux

    Is “simian cocksucker” too high-brow an insult?

    • groat scotum

      I’m right here

      • Mojeaux

        And since you are! Please tell me the best place to learn your job. “Self-study” won’t work for me. I need a distinct pathway to follow.

  17. groat scotum

    A lovely yippines, when the last coyotes finally retire , probably around two in the morning. Driven off I hope by starvation to die in ditches, but whatever.

    Die in humps.

  18. rhywun

    Oh fuck, you’re right. Tears of the Kingdom.

    UCS and MLW – I decided to start over. It’s been over nine months since I played and I would be totally lost if I tried to continue from a saved game.

    Just took the big dive to the first, um… sky island? Whatever that area is called… I don’t remember.

  19. R.J.

    Some extras for Ron. Beibg stuck at hospital is no fun. Here’s some familiar comedies. That always cheers me up personally.

    Cocksucker Rageholic had his spiel: pretty much just contemporaneous cockscucking. Bet against that and lose money, cocksuckers.

  21. cavalier973

    So, is tonight’s movie about whether a giant corporation or flying space heroes can deliver parcels faster?

  22. Mojeaux

    I’ve been busy with my books and websites and whatnot, so I haven’t been keeping up with the kerfuffle. I know there is one. So my husband tells me somebody in his Twitter feed called Elon “Space Karen.” That’s funny. I don’t care who you are.

    • rhywun

      Elon has some good points but he’s being a spaz.

      • Akira

        Does this mean the Leftists are going to start liking him again and pay for repairs on all those Teslas they vandalized?

    • groat scotum

      Moj I could use some help tomorrow. I need some moral support. I know I don’t deserve you, but if you could temporize wha

      • groat scotum

        I’m doing a Stephen King thing where I cut off whatever it is I need from you Moj, but actually, this next week is going to be difficult. I need to show up. I kid around a lot and I kid about my attracting to you, Moj, but in this case it’s not attraction, what I need from you isn’t physical. What I need is force of will. I have a very difficult lift next week. It’s great to be needed and I need to be great.

      • groat scotum

        the fact is there’s no helping you.

      • Brochettaward

        Good luck, buddy!

        Everyone is attracted to The Bro, but try to keep it out of your hands.

  23. Yusef drives a Kia

    Im readying for yet another tournament this weekend. A charity affair, after that OKlahoma for month then more tournaments, its been a busy year of disc, maybe an article’s worth

    • groat scotum

      What’s the worst you ever lost on a coin toss?

      • groat scotum

        The worst, Yusef, you’ve ever won on a coin toss

      • Ted S.

        Oh dear, Groat has hit the drugs again.

  24. Aloysious

    Lots of “chop suey” in the opening credits. A fine start.

  25. Aloysious

    Luigi Tanzi is the gaffer. Good, good. I can’t find a credit for who is responsible for the sound FX. Lame.

    the ascetic of it all

    Jewish Italians? I a go now.

    • CPRM

      You see, it’s a play on words and accents. Some have posited that Iago in Othello may be an Italian Jew, but also a cartoonish Italian might say I a go now when leaving. I haz smarts BFA.

      • Ted S.

        We need OMWC to tell what Jewish asceticism is like.

  27. Evan from Evansville

    Time to hit the bricks! Yesterday I did oversize til 10 and didn’t have to dispense out to the drivers. I hope that streak continues before my 9 or (preferably) 10am ‘lunch.’

    Beats the fuck out of the alternative. Be and do well, y’all.

    • Gender Traitor

      Good morning, Sean, EfE, Ted’S., and CPRM!

    • Gender Traitor

      Good morning, homey! How are you today?

      • Ted S.

        It’s Friday, but it looks like more rain this weekend.

        There was a blurb on the news last weekend that it’s been 28 consecutive weekends with at least a measurable amount of precipitation.

      • Gender Traitor

        Had a little rain last night and a small shower that passed by just a little while ago, but looks to be mainly cloudy today. But yeah – we’re going to get some rain over the weekend, too.

      • Tres Cool

        Good thing I got yard stuff done last weekend. Dont think Ill have much of a chance over the next two days.

      • Fourscore

        We’ve been getting serious expectations that seem to be watered down at delivery time. Yesterday we got soaked at (and by) Walmart as we were putting our groceries in the car. We had dinner in town, then going home the rain disappeared and it was totally dry (no rain) when we got home. It appears it did rain a little during the night though.

  30. ron73440

    Holy Crap!

    I just slept 9 1/2 hours.

    If I am on a good sleep schedule 7 is my max before I wake up.

    I look like a woman that has been told something twice, but feel OK.

    • Fourscore

      Catching up, good for you, you’re on the road to recovery!.

      • ron73440

        Still feel a little weak, but I’ll take it.

      • Ted S.

        Shitting without pain, I hope.

      • ron73440

        Shitting without pain, I hope.

        Haven’t had to go yet, but if I was bleeding I would have went by now.

    TPTB:The Stoic Friday post is ready to post.

    It has a different title, but that is it.
