Official War Room Awards 2019

[Ruprecht]

You know that video where they make Daniel seem like the real villain in the Karate Kid? They could definitely do that with Road House. The villain is so incredibly one-dimensionally villainous, but they could twist it to make it appear like he was protecting the town, bringing in lots of money, employing lots of people, and he even took care of a disadvantaged girl who needed a father-figure (Swayze's love interest). Then the evil townspeople, full of envy and lack of appreciation, led by an outsider with a murderous past form a lynch mob and go to his house to murder him in his own living room.

You remember it a lot better than I do. The throat ripping scene was by far the most memorable part of the movie. Other than the fact Swayze was a bouncer at a bar, I don't think I could have given you a single other detail about the plot.

Man, hard to believe it's been 10 years since Swayze died. That movie would have been pure The Room-level dumpster fire without him. But with him it's a cultural staple.

Who else could have played Bodhi in Point Break without coming across like a complete tool? He was an unusual guy, he pulled off some interesting roles.

 

[Wet Blanket]

lol I wasn't aware that was a thing.

I would totally be down for that. I like Swayze, I like Road House, and I like Ronda Rousey. And I like internet incels getting super angry about women doing anything a man has previously done. Win, win, win, win.

Exactly. It got shut down after she lost to HH.

Aw man, the plot is ridiculous. He goes to the town to clean up a struggling bar, but there's a local organized crime leader who runs the town with an iron fist. He controls everything, and collects protection fees from all of the local businesses. He's entirely evil, and there's no real explanation for any of it. He's just a bully, gangster, criminal, rich man who prays on the poor locals.

I can't decide whether this is "homophobic".

lost

 

[Limbo Pete]

Seems counter intuitive, but things have gotten a lot gayer here since NoDak was banned.

NoDak's alpha gayness kept all the beta gays in check imo

Not inspired by a gay martydom operation then?

And the bad guys drive monster trucks of course.

Also, this struggling bar has Jeff Healy rocking out in a cage on a stage.

This is what happens when an apex species gets taken out. The natural order falls apart.

Nature abhors a vacuum. Even a gay one.

He's the gay El Chapo keeping the other cartels in line

They made a movie about it

Sicario: Gay of the Soldado
