Shameless Self Promotion Department
Re: Shameless Self Promotion Department
And oh shit, Mark Lester did Showdown in Little Tokyo as well. Another top tier trash action film for me.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

In hindsight, I should have realized a podcast about 80s movies would have several movies with Dobermans in them.

Class of 1984 is an alltime great too.

Re: Shameless Self Promotion Department
And yet the definitive Doberman movies—The Doberman Gang, The Daring Dobermans, and The Amazing Dobermans—are from the early to mid 70s. I always that Dobies were the scary dog of the 70s, the 80s went for Rottweilers, and the 90s was when we decided pit bulls were the scariest dog imaginable.Wolter wrote:In hindsight, I should have realized a podcast about 80s movies would have several movies with Dobermans in them.

Re: Shameless Self Promotion Department
To my recollection it was Dobermans and German Shepherds through the mid-80s, Pit Bulls through the mid 90s, THEN Rottweilers, but I suppose your mileage may vary.Dr. Medulla wrote:And yet the definitive Doberman movies—The Doberman Gang, The Daring Dobermans, and The Amazing Dobermans—are from the early to mid 70s.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run_Joe_Run
Run, Joe, Run was a Saturday-morning television program that aired on NBC from 1974 to 1976. It centered on Joe, a German Shepherd dog in the military's K-9 corps, and his master, Sergeant Will Corey (played by Arch Whiting). One day, during training, Joe was falsely accused of attacking his master, a crime for which the dog would be put to sleep as punishment. However, he escaped before being killed and a $200 bounty was put on his head.
Sgt. Corey believed Joe was innocent and also pursued him, hoping to find Joe before the authorities did. While on the run, Joe helped people he encountered.

Holy shit, what a dark premise. Hey, kids, guess what? Adults make false accusations that could get you killed, so be ready to run!

Started listening to Commando this morning. You guys talk good and stuff.
