I'm talking the one lb bag of frozen tails I typically add to my seafood gumbo. Used to be 7-8 now it's like 18. I know season is coming up, and hopefully it's a decent harvest so the damn prices might be more palatable.

I haven't made jambalaya in a long time. Need to put that on the list. Already knocked out my chicken andouille gumbo recently. Wouldn't mind making seafood gumbo, but fucking crab and crawfish prices are stupid high right now.

Yeah, nobody even said wait a minute I smell smoke.

My favorite part is when the garage was burning down and they were just standing around and then suddenly surprised that the garage is burning down. It started off okay and then just kind of went and shit the bed.

Hell yeah, the last scene specifically and the score throughout it and the end credits is phenomenal. All of Mann's earlier films were Tangerine Dream, if I'm not mistaken. Third, Manhunter and The Keep specifically. Might be another one. I still wish I could watch the full 3 hour version...

Maybe for a cold pie. Buttery and flaky pie crust is still king for warm pies.

Pecan pie, too.

I'm normally salt and garlic pepper. Only time I may use things like soy or other liquids like red wine or Worcestershire is for marinating things like a flank steak or top sirloin if I'm slicing to serve. I don't mind different steak rubs though. My wife really likes what they season the...

It's a great movie, but Silence of the Lambs is still top tier, as well. They're both just different styles of movies. Hannibal and the other Red Dragon are both pretty good, too.

The score is also the tits.

I mainly use it on my phone because I can listen to interviews and stuff, but I'll watch the movies on my computer or TV.

I watch enough other cooking videos, fly fishing stuff, and other hobbies or other things that it's worth it to not have to deal with ads. It's just surprising they've got a pretty good library of movies on there so why not take advantage of it.

Actually watched that for the first time a month or so ago. It's not bad but not his best. I was actually disappointed he didn't get Jan Hammer back to work on the soundtrack, but it might be because he's no longer alive, I don't know.

I've got premium, and there's a surprising amount of older movies that are really great on there. Lot of old 60s and 70s world war II movies, shit like Towering Inferno and Raise the Titanic. Just all kinds of older movies I had either hadn't seen in a long time or never seen before and it's...

It's free on YouTube right now, where I watched it. They also have Blackhat on there, too. I had watched it for the first time earlier this year and didn't realize it was a Mann film. It was pretty good.

I've been rewatching some Michael Mann movies, and did HEAT couple weeks ago, such a classic. Watched his first movie Thief for the first time last week and it was pretty good. Definitely tell it was sort of a prototype for HEAT.

Because it's hilarious, that's why.

There's literally narration from the Chinese wizard the entire film telling you what the hell is happening if you can't pick it up from the visual cues throughout all of the scenes. Did you have your TV on mute?

It's not in the same league as Conan, but for sword and sorcery, it's definitely top tier '80s goodness. The second one with Michael Ironside for The Beastmaster travels into the future is also pretty fun.

Pretty much what my thoughts were. I mean I can't imagine the whiskey is going to impart that much flavor because it's burning off. Like you said why not just flambe in a alcohol pan sauce after you've seared on the grill.

Yeah it seems counterintuitive because you're trying to dry the surface of the steak out so you get the good Browning, but maybe it's the sugars or something in the soy and the alcohol flare up from the whiskey which gets you decent Browning.

I mean if you just saw RoboCop one and two last back in 2024, I think that's all you need to know. Had a VHS recording off of HBO for the first one and I saw the second in the theater. The second was actually filmed in Houston, and my step sister got to bring home a prop part of a column...

I saw it in the theater back in the day. I understand just how bad of a movie it is, even if it's fun and cheesy. I was trying to sucker him in to watching it next, asshole...😉

Hell yeah. Basil Poledouris is one of my favorite movie composers. Think about all the classics he did: Conan, RoboCop, Red Dawn, Hunt for Red October, Starship Troopers, etc. Definitely one of the biggest reasons those movies are so great, and Conan was probably his best.

What's the triple sear method?

Well I guess I'm more optimistic about this one then. Ralph Fiennes was definitely the most interesting aspect of the other one, and the trailer has me interested enough along with your review. Thanks.

I didn't realize there was going to be a third. Did they already shoot that one, too?

Jesus, dude. Well, you'll probably find Kull the Conquerer more to your liking then. 😉

Why was it bad? I thought about getting peacock or doing a trial to watch it because the first one was decent.

How the fuck had you never seen Conan the Barbarian before? Next are going to tell us you've never seen RoboCop or Predator.

Jesus, that looks fucking terrible.

Not gonna lie, that's pretty good, but I'm sticking to me guns with The Mummy Man.

It seems that movie was very polarizing. I myself actually enjoyed it quite a bit and I thought it was a step up from Barbarians. Is it the greatest horror movie I've ever seen, absolutely not, but it's a good movie, and I never felt it was a waste of time. I guess it gets lumped in with the...

So did I, which is why The Mummy Man would have been a winner!

They could have gone with The Mummy Man and it may have gotten me to go to the theater.

I'm guessing the dude's daughter. There was a picture of a dad holding a young girl, and I'm assuming maybe the main character is the dad who becomes the mummy man and maybe goes out on a quest for revenge using his mummy man powers.
