This week we dust off our dancing shoes and head back to 1980 for the Canadian slasher classic, Prom Night, starring Jamie Lee Curtis and Leslie Nielsen. It's a wild whodunnit with a billion misdirects that thinks its pulling one over on you even though it's pretty obvious who the killer is from the get go. You get a great cast here that elevates to the movie to a higher class than it probably deserves. It's a beautiful portrait of a time long gone and we love it.Originally conceived as a killer doctor horror movie it instead eschews the popular notion at the time to set a slasher movie during a holiday in favor of something more relatable to young audiences, proms. It also bends over backwards to convince you that the songs being played at this prom are popular disco hits of the era without actually being popular hits of the era.Prom Night also sparked the first moral outrage of the 80's, the public backlash against horror movies and we're going to tell you all about it.Join the Bring Me The Axe Discord: https://discord.gg/snkxuxzJSupport Bring Me The Axe! on Patreon: https://patreon.com/bringmetheaxepodBuy Bring Me The Axe merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/bring-me-the-axe-podcast/
Vi fortsätter Leslie Nielsen-temat med en s k dubbel whammy där vi bjuder på inte bara en utan två filmer i ett och samma avsnitt! Givetvis är det de två uppföljarna till Nakna Pistolen som diskuteras! Hur står de sig mot den fantastiska originalfilmen? Lyssna för att få reda på svaret! Teknologiskt haveri gjorde att resan till detta avsnitt var mycket lång och mödosam, så vi hoppas det ska väl smaka! Den nakna pistolen 2½: Doften av rädsla (The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear) (1991): "Polisinspektör Frank Drebin är helt förkrossad efter att hans förhållande med Jane tagit slut. Hennes nye pojkvän smider lömska planer som involverar både solenergi och kidnappning. Drebin och hans kollegor rycker ut för att rädda världen." Nakna pistolen 33 1/3: Den slutgiltiga förolämpningen (Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult) (1994): "Frank Drebin får i uppdrag att arbeta under täckmantel på statsfängelset för att ta reda på vad terroristen Rocco har för planer när han blir frisläppt. Jakten på Rocco leder till Oscarsgalan." Superlänk till alla våra plattformar: linktr.ee/filmsmakarna #LeslieNielsen #NaknaPistolen #NakedGun
Connor presents the wrong graphic on our video stream, and we relive the 50th anniversary of the Tornado of '75.
Vi är tillbaka för att diskutera en av filmhistoriens riktiga tungviktare: Den Nakna Pistolen! Leslie Nielsen återvänder till rollen som Lt. Frank Drebin från den nedlagda tv-serien Police Squad! I den här filmen får han sällskap av Priscilla Presley som Jane Spencer och O.J. Simpson som Nordberg när de tar sig an Ricardo Montalbáns storskurk Vincent Ludwig. Mycket nöje!

Did Jeep accidentally build one of the best hot hatches of the last 40 years? It's is smaller than a Mk8 GTI and could be had with a bulletproof 4.0L inline-six and 5-speed transmission. Can it possibly give the quintessential VW hot-hatch a run for its money? We'll talk Jeep XJ Cherokee, its origins, and all 8 generations of GTI – from the 16v 2.0L, to the 8v 2-point-slow, the soulless 1.8T, the venerable VR6, and the electric e-Golf! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === Welcome to the hot hatch episode! We'll touch on some real oddballs in this one – like the Dodge Omni GLHS, Suzuki Swift, Chevrolet Sprint, and Mitsubishi Mirage. Plus some allegedly fabulous but forbidden fruit: the Peugeot 205 GTi Rally and Renault Clio Williams. Then we'll dive into the Jeep XJ Cherokee which Jason just did a Revelations episode on. It began as the unibody successor to the giant and inefficient Jeep Wagoneer – a honking SUV with CJ Wrangler guts inside – which, incidentally, was a recipe being emulating across the globe as Toyota and Land Rover (to name a few) were also building more comfortable and luxurious SUVs using drivetrain bits from their more serious off-roaders like the BJ/FJ and Series II/III. The Cherokee followed the Range Rover away from the body-on-frame chassis and adopted unitary construction methods resulting in genuine handling prowess – even out-gripping a W201 Mercedes-Benz 190E. In fact, the chassis bones are so good you can find XJs competing amongst much sportier cars in 24 Hours of Lemons races across the country. Jason even deems the XJ one of his best back road drives ever. Sadly, early cars were excruciatingly slow thanks to an anemic Renault-built AMC engine. But that didn't stop Jason from getting one of his very first speeding tickets in one. The little XJ made a lasting impression on nearly everyone who had the pleasure of experiencing one – including Derek, whose experiences in his mom's are literally his earliest datable memories. The little Jeep was so popular that when the Grand Cherokee came along to replace it, so many people were still clamoring for the original Cherokee that Jeep decided they would just build both. After the Jeep, we jump into VW's perennial hatchback hit: the GTI. All 8 generations have their pros and cons: Jason proclaims the VR6 to be one of the best sounding engines ever produced, and the 1.8T the worst VW ever made. The MQB platform underpinning the latest cars is declared spectacular. The Mk4 is a chubby baby Audi/Mercedes. The Mk6 fixes a lot of the hamster-styling of the Mk5, but the Mk5 has the better steering, just beware understeer. The Mk7 is a delight, especially if you can find yourself a Rabbit or Sport edition in Great Falls Green or Cornflower Blue. But even with a fancy color scheme, the humble e-Golf makes the better city car. Of note: Derek finally goes large-barging with a crew made up of a 560SEC, F-Type SVR, F-Pace SVR, a pair of R129s (one dogleg), and A4 2.8 Avant 5-speed, with his Mk5 GTI track car as a palette cleanser. Lastly, Jim Carrey, Mike Myers and Leslie Nielsen are national treasures, and their comedy blockbusters from the 80s, 90s and 2000s are exquisite. But do they hold up as well today as a Jeep XJ?

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to the creator of Airplane! and The Naked Gun, David Zucker about how he and his brother went from being class clowns in Milwaukee to launching a hit comedy troupe in a bookstore theater; how his first movie The Kentucky Fried Movie became a huge success that made its money back on opening weekend; the struggle to sell Airplane! and why they insisted on casting serious actors like Robert Stack and Peter Graves; how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar landed his role because he wanted a $30K rug; how directing required precise comedic timing; how veteran actors were skeptical of the film until the end; the real origin of The Naked Gun; why Zucker and his team decided to direct their films, how the failed Police Squad! series evolved into The Naked Gun movie; how he was able to remake serious actor Leslie Nielsen into a perfect comedian; why Ricardo Montalbán forced him to rewrite certain jokes; what it was like to work with O.J. Simpson; the original idea to reboot Naked Gun as a Mission: Impossible spoof featuring Leslie Nielsen's son; how Paramount execs initially loved the script but then gave the project to Seth MacFarlane; why Zucker wouldn't cast Liam Neeson and disagrees with the reboot's tone and CGI; why Hollywood no longer understands comedy; and much more.

Buzzin Frog... förlåt, Leslie Nielsen har blivit falskt anklagad! (Vilket filmen påminner oss om var femte minut). Det är dags att ta oss an kultrullen Wrongfully Accused. Det blir allt från Riverdance i bar överkropp till Keyser Söze, Dirty Harry och Braveheart i veckans avsnitt. Wrongfully Accused är en satirisk komedifilm och spoof av Jagad eller The Fugutive med Harrison Ford. Filmen kom ut från 1998 och är skriven, producerad och regisserad av Pat Proft och med Leslie Nielsen i huvudrollen som en man som har anklagats för mord och desperat försöker avslöja de sanna gärningsmännen. Mycket nöje! Superlänk till alla plattformar: https://linktr.ee/Filmsmakarna #filmsmakarna #wrongfullyaccused #leslienielsen #jagad

Leslie Nielsen i en superhjältefilm? JA, TACK! Podden är minst sagt delad när vi tittar på denna sågade och hyllade (?) komedifilm som innehåller, Fame, b*tches och glöm inte b*tches... En Deadpool för sin tid eller rent skräp? Det är några av frågorna vi ställer oss Vi konstaterar dock att den har en grym rollista med allt från Leslie Nielsen, Christopher McDonald och en ung Kevin Hart till Pamela Anderson och Ditt Nasty/Simon Rex! Tonåringen Rick Riker är något av en loser. Men när han blir biten av en genmanipulerad trollslända förvandlas han till superhjälte i denna allra bästa av superhjältefilmer (om man inte räknar de andra superhjältefilmerna som har gjorts).

In this episode of Exploring Humanity Through Sci-Fi, I take a deep dive into the groundbreaking 1956 classic Forbidden Planet—a film that didn't just define a genre, but reshaped it.
Our favorite Asian beers. Remembering Mitch Hedburg. Dire wolves have returned, is humanity ready? We look back on the film career of Val Kilmer. Can Liam Neeson capture Leslie Nielsen's magic in the new Naked Gun movie?
Först ut i temat om SIR Leslie Nielsen, så har vi filmen "Airplane!" (känd som "Titta vi flyger" i Sverige) från 1980. En kultfilm som ofta benämns som en av de roligaste filmerna genom tiderna. Fylld med klassiska repliker som "I am serious... and don't call me Shirley" tillsammans med Leslie Nielsen's fantastiska deadpan-leverans så kan vi garantera att det är en film som få kommer ha tråkigt när de ser. Låt oss få veta era favoritscener och repliker från filmen! Airplane! (1980): "Ted blir den ende tillgänglige som kan flyga ett plan när besättningen drabbas av matförgiftning. Fördelen är att han är pilot. Nackdelen är att han är flygrädd sedan "Kriget". Hans ex-flickvän, flygvärdinnan Elaine, är också ombord."

Remember when Leslie Nielsen stood in front of the burning building and yelled, "nothing to see here?" Well it's going to be Liam Nissan soon, but that's beside the point. There are things politicians don't want you to see.
This week on What The Frock?, Friar Rod joins in from Gatlinburg with tales of divine donuts and suspiciously foreign MAGA hats, while Rabbi Dave battles a 6mm kidney stone with nothing but prayer, pacing, and Costco water. The holy duo also weigh in on the upcoming Naked Gun reboot starring Liam Neeson—can it live up to the deadpan glory of Leslie Nielsen, or is it best streamed under sedation? With spiritual snack sermons and sharp political jabs, this episode is glazed with humor and filled with the kind of wisdom only a rabbi and a friar can serve.

I veckans avsnitt påbörjar vi vårt nya tema: Leslie Nielsen! Trots att han började karriären som seriös skådis är han för oss självklart mest känd för sina komiska roller. Med odödliga klassiker som Airplane! och Nakna Pistolen-trilogin under bältet är han definitivt kungen av "deadpan"-humor. Vi ger lite bakgrund till hans karriär, diskuterar vilka filmer vi kommer ihåg honom mest ifrån och förundras över hur han kunde se så gammal ut så länge! Mycket nöje!

Happy New Year! Should old acquaintance be forgot then that'd be awkward indeed as Andrew holds Johnny's hand to the Leslie Nielsen franchise-starting comedy classic that leads to the upcoming Liam Neeson reboot in 2025. Fear not, though, before getting into the ZAZ weeds there's important talk on Luca Guadagnino's Queer and the contractually obligated Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim, and a good discussion about AI-centric 4K remastering that's plagued us all of late.
Guest host David Horton and Clay discuss New Year's resolutions. Never more important than at present. People across the political spectrum are nervous about the next years of American life. But what's to be done? Clay offers several ways of coping—taking up a craft that involves one's hands and not merely one's brain, reading with discipline and purpose, learning from Aristotle's dictum that wisdom is knowing which battles to fight and which to leave alone, and much more. Clay and David wind up quoting Reinhold Niebuhr's Serenity prayer in unison. Read the complete works of your favorite author. And when things really go south, watch Leslie Nielsen films: Naked Gun, Airplane, Naked Gun 2 ½.

In the 1950s Leslie Nielsen was best known as a dramatic actor in movies and on television. But in 1980, that was about to change. Leslie took a role in a new comedy movie that was looking for a solid, deadpan type to be in the center of "joke-a-minute" action. That movie was Airplane! and it launched Leslie on a comedic career that would include the Police Squad tv show and the Naked Gun movie franchise. Along the way, Leslie became a master at poking fun at his own image, hosting Saturday Night Live and being a frequent guest on game shows and talk shows. While his later movies didn't reach the artistic or commercial heights of his early comedy career it didn't matter -- his Legend was secure. And nobody gets to call him Shirley. Find extra cuts below and, as always, thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Leslie Nielsen? Back when there were watercoolers, this bit got used a lot by office wits. https://youtu.be/ixljWVyPby0?si=fveuiJdk9qiwAShe While Airplane! made Leslie a comedy star, the Naked Gun movies made him a box office titan. Here Leslie engages in a little old fashioned bribery with a source. https://youtu.be/uxviBxaSjyc?si=VvtVvpiiFP0_DAv9 In 1989 Leslie was tapped to host Saturday Night Live and, of course, they built on his ability to say the most outrageous things in a smooth and relaxed style. https://youtu.be/ooPJQZZ1ZCE?si=z1fcUZVRyQKktOJp Leslie was a regular in talk shows in the 1990s including Conan O'Brien's where Leslie demonstrated his favorite prank. https://youtu.be/k1ztkOcJrNE?si=fklwI-QQC1ByzOcY
