Batman & Robin 1997
Part Two of Joel Schumacher Tribute Day afterΒ Phone Booth.
Another Schumacher movie that holds a special place in my heart, but only because of the memory of the day I saw it and its great soundtrack. Honorable Mention to Uma Thurman for having the most fun ever. I wish Freeze wasnβt in this, because it would be shorter and it wouldβve been all Uma.Β
In the summer of 1997, I was sent on a month long trip with my Grandparentsβ¦

3 Ninjas 1992
319.Β
Thatβs right. Three hundred and nineteen. Three hundred and nineteen what, you ask? 319 Hiyahs!Β No oneΒ asked for it, but I counted 319 hiyahs between all three of the ninjas.
Thankfully this movie has only 3 action set pieces and then an end credit rap song featuring them calledΒ "Kid Power"Β by Will Roc, but itβs the only sound (word) you hear from each of them every time they fight. I know itβs in almost every martial arts movie, but when Iβ¦

Cloud Atlas 2012
The first time I saw this was a weekday matinee screening in the huge RPX theater in Denver. One of the benefits of working at the Sie Film Center was getting passed in to the RPX & IMAX theaters, so I saw movies whenever I had free time. And since it was a weekday matinee, it was pretty empty inside and Denver crowds werenβt known for clapping anyway.Β
Seeing this on that huge screen and hearing this score through that soundβ¦

Vanilla Ice: Ninja Rap 1991
My man Rob Van Winkle made this song ICE, baby.Β
The pointless extended instrumental at the end to show more dancing was excellent.Β
Watched onΒ YouTube.

Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022
Iβll never hearΒ "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)"Β by Nine Days or think of Ratatouille the same way ever again. (Edit 4/11/22) Hereβs aΒ linkΒ to a great article about Nine Days involvement with the whole film. Itβs more amazing than I thought.Β
Maybe my favorite Michelle Yeoh performance? Sheβs amazing. And itβs so great to have Ke Huy Quan back on screen. I had no clue he knew how to fight! He kicked ass with a Fanny Pack! And then got to haveβ¦

Wrinkles the Clown 2019
Thereβs a moment where theyβre in a motel room with Wrinkles and you hear this news report in the background: Β
βFlorida Man arrested for having sexual relations with a miniature horse on several occasions...β
Fucking Florida.
Thereβs not one mention of ICP or Juggalos, but at least thereβs a clip from Killer Klowns.Β
