#6: COBRA (1986)


Listen Later

It's a big milestone on the pod: the first truly bad movie. as James and Bryne dive into 1986's COBRA, starring Sylvester Stallone as Marion Cobretti, a tough cop whose dour demeanor is just as off-putting as his pizza eating habits. We discuss all the other weird food things in COBRA, too--gummy bears? Check. Hospital cake? Check. Eating an apple with leather gloves on? CHECK!!! We also talk about Stallone going from almost doing BEVERLY HILLS COP to rewriting the script with none of the humor left in for COBRA; Stallone being inspired by Bruce Springsteen when creating COBRA; the way the message of this movie and other things like PUNISHER are misconstrued by stupid cops who just want to beat up people; the car chase and how Stallone sold his Mercury used in the movie to a guy who then tried to set a land speed record while driving it; plus, we talk about the COVID vaccine; phones tracking us; jacking off (sorry, mom); our favorite movie theater experiences; ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD (two 36 year old white guys gushing over Tarantino? WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT!); and Bryne finally tells the story of his colonoscopy. Can't believe it took six episodes to get to that.
