    BONUS: THE JUDGMENT NIGHT SOUNDTRACK

    It's often called one of the few movie soundtracks that's better than the movie itself. But IS IT? James and I called back to our season 2 episode about JUDGMENT NIGHT (the movie) and discussed the JUDGMENT NIGHT soundtrack, famous for its collaborations between rock bands and hip-hop artists. James had a surprising opinion about the Slayer / Ice-T collab and an even more surprising opinion about Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub, De La Soul, and Cypress Hill. We wondered aloud if Eddie Vedder even showed up for Pearl Jam's sessions for their song, which dovetailed into a drubbing of Vedder's many imitators, your Puddles of Mudd, your Creeds and what you will. We discussed Biohazard and Evan Seinfeld's porn career, and also generated our own adult film star names. We also talked about nu-metal still being good gym music in 2023, Jnco jeans and BMX bikes, shoplifting, and we tried to fantasy book a sequel to this soundtrack. We also might think the SPAWN soundtrack is better.

    BONUS: TRUE LIES THE TV SHOW

    As a nice bit of symmetry with the season 2 finale, and some bonus content to tide y'all over while we work on season 3, we donned our hard hats, cleaned the Burger King wrappers out of our lunch pails, and returned to the podcast mines to discuss the pilot of the new CBS series TRUE LIES starring Steve Howey and Ginger Gonzaga as Harry and Helen Tasker. We talked about some of the callbacks to the movie in the episode, as well as some of the, shall we say, lightening up of the proceedings to make it palatable for Gramma and Grandpa to watch on CBS every week. We also discussed party lines, the WCW hotline, Bloodhound Gang, Mexican pastries, weird sodas, and, inspired by Steven Seagal's new Order of Friendship award from Vladimir Putin, James has a surprise for Bryne.

    #40: TRUE LIES (1994)

    It's the Season 2 finale and for this one we went big. Real big. We're talking about Box Office Jim himself. We convened IN PERSON for the only time this season to watch one of our favorite movies of all time: 1994's TRUE LIES starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Arnold, and Bill Paxton, directed by James Cameron. We did our best through a few beers and a few hits to try and distill what makes this movie an action classic: It's basically a live-action cartoon with big-time set pieces, amazing practical effects and stunts, and plenty of comedy. We also delved into some of the xenophobic stuff in it that hasn't aged as well and has led arguably to all action movie villains being white guys now, as it should be. Thanks for listening and we'll catch your ass down the road for Season 3! Follow the show: @goincommandopod Check out our website: goincommandopod.com

    #39: EL MARIACHI (1992)

    It's the penultimate episode of Season 2 and the boys are headed *BONG* south of the border for our first-ever viewing of Robert Rodriguez' directorial debut, 1992's EL MARIACHI. The legacy of this movie, and the star director it created, loom over its content which...well...isn't very good. BUT considering what had to happen to get it made, and the way in which it was made, with no crew, no trained actors and a $7,000 budget, it's kind of a triumph. We get into all of that plus discussions about hot bevs, Yeti tumblers, Arnold Schwarzenegger's famous stogies video, we propose a new Annabelle movie starring Arnold, we talk about bad dubbing, James does some dream analysis and also tells a fun Danny Trejo story.

    #38: RUNAWAY TRAIN (1985)

    This week on the show we were totally floored by Andrei Konchalovsky's 1985 thriller RUNAWAY TRAIN starring Jon Voight, Eric Roberts, and Rebecca De Mornay. It's the first (and possibly last) movie we've done for the show in which actors—in this case both Roberts and Voight—were actually nominated for Academy Awards for their performances. In between the white-knuckle scenes on said runaway train, which are some of the most stunningly intense we've ever seen, there's a quiet character drama happening that's well-directed and brilliantly acted. Like James said on the show, "this is highbrow shit." We did our best to dissect what makes it so great. Of course, we also talked about the logistics of jerking off in the shower, the pains of gift wrapping, tips for good gift giving, we did some 5th grade physics re: train collisions, we talked about lava lamps and man caves and obviously, of course, Steven Seagal.

    #37: JUDGMENT NIGHT (1993)

    This week in the podcast mines we dig up a 1993 movie that's arguably less famous than its soundtrack: JUDGMENT NIGHT starring Emilio Estevez, Cuba Gooding Jr., Jeremy Piven, Stephen Dorff, and Denis Leary as a gang leader (?). Play the opening riff because the boys are back in town, that town being Chicago, which to their four suburban brains looks like a warzone. On their way to a boxing match they take an ill-advised shortcut which embroils them in an ongoing street war in which "Leave No Witnesses" is one of the rules. The chase then ensues and takes a few different forms, and we get some solid character work from all the actors. We discuss that as well as what the movie may or may not be trying to say about cities being "dangerous" to suburban folks. We also call Everlast weird-looking. We talk about going Piven Mode (the acting, not the sexual assault). Follow the show: @goincommandopod Check out our website: goincommandopod.com

    #36: TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A. (1985)

    The boys are back in town, and by town we mean Los Angeles and boys we mean us. This week we dove headfirst into William Friedkin's 1985 neo-noir TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A. starring William Petersen as Secret Service agent Richard Chance and Willem Dafoe as counterfeit kingpin Rick Masters. Going in blind, you'd think this movie would be a paint-by-numbers collision course between a good government guy whose only vice is BASE jumping and a bad guy who artfully crafts phony twenty dollar bills and kills anyone who gets in the way of his enterprise. What actually transpires is far more nuanced and interesting: after his partner is murdered three days before retirement, Chance begins a rapid descent into madness and corruption, fueled by revenge and willing to poison everyone in his orbit to achieve it.  We talk about that as well as the special effects or lack thereof, the arc of Chance's new partner Vukovich, we give some love to the king of character actors John Turturro, and of course, we extensively dissect the movie's car chase scene, one of the best ever put to film. It's a vibe. Follow the pod: @goincommandopod Check out our website: goincommandopod.com

    #35: RUMBLE IN THE BRONX (1995)

    Last year the boys were wowed by POLICE STORY so it's only natural that this season we return to Jackie Chan's filmography with his American breakthrough, RUMBLE IN THE BRONX. This movie is long on great stunts but extremely short on plot so we do what we do best: fill time by getting weird with it. Bryne does a lot of impressions including Owen Wilson, Donald Trump, and Beetlejuice. James does his best Alex Jones. We talk about hypothetically getting a cease and desist from Steven Seagal which dovetails into writing a movie for him in which he doesn't even have to stand up. James teaches Bryne the term for male cameltoe. Among other things. Follow us on social media: @goincommandopod Check out our new WEBSITE: goincommandopod.com
