Eye Luggage: what were we talking about again? oh yes, i remember. Backdraft and go...
Laertus: once again i know the Universal Studios special-effects attraction this is based on, not the movie. my dad talked about it all the time. he had a hot date there once...
Dirg: perfect timing, this week's Attack on Titan features a backdraft terrorist explosion...
Dirg: it's a conspiracy tho, have you ever seen Ron Howard and Ken Burns in the same room together?...
Eddie Murphy strolls softly with Jennifer Jason Leigh at night along the Chi-Town Skyline:
Eddie: the moon's out tonight...that moon's as big as my head!......what a moon out tonight by golly.........sorry about my Vic Morrow comment, i wasn't mad at you, you a hot white woman...
Dirg: speaking of, the woman in the youtube comments who took the time to watch the deleted scenes of Backdraft, now THAT is the woman i should next meet...
Laertus: Dirg, nomex does not mean no Mexicans...
Laertus: gotta give it up to Kurt Russell, he really shows in this he can act. multi-layered. this is one of those beguiling movies that gets better the more you think about it, how it all gels together, it doesn't hit you like a backdraft the moment you see it tho...
Eye Luggage: needs time to cement together like fireman's foam...
Dirg: this was Hollywood fire. fire isn't alive! it's not a living breathing monster...
Eye Luggage: oh yes it is! where do you think my crystals get powered from?
Rubikon: it is in the inner-city! fire's an uncontrolled monster!
Dirg: YEAH! NOT NYC!
Takahashi: this film is where all the Dick Wolf shows come from...
Laertus: confusing as fuck: Kurt Russell plays Bull AND the father! it's just a weird choice. when i first saw this when Kurt appears out of the fire i thought he was a ghost or vision or something of the dead father.
Patrick Swayze: right?...
Eye: yeah but perfect genetic match. the budget doesn't have to stretch to pay for another actor.
Billy Baldwin: i'm the only Baldwin brother who isn't crazy. neither is my wife. who knew a pop singer would be more stable than a yoga instructor?...
Stabler gives the De Niro look...
De Niro: i was out-of-place in this film. you can tell i didn't want to be there. i kept to myself upstairs alone in my room while everyone else had dinner in the firehouse, this started the tradition of Firehouse Subs...
Donald Sutherland: it wasn't me. see i got the teeth Kiefer didn't. i can play the sexy lothario or the psychopath lothario in a flash, with the switch of the twinkle of my eye, i make fire fun. without me you wouldn't have Heath Joker or like Phoenix Joker, see them fly in your mind, the arsonist wasn't a Mexican. i wanted the world to burn first. i'm still not as creepy as Bruce Dern tho, that guy's faucet runs too hot/cold. see? it pays to be less handsome than your son...
Jennifer Jason Leigh: i do the typical '90s sex scene. pick the kinkiest place to fuck and there i am, on top of the fire truck won out i guess. at least it wasn't on top of the hydrant. Billy was a sweetheart but did i have to suck on his hairy bellybutton till a line of spit formed like a cobweb?...
Ron Howard: you were imitating the backdraft. the next time you hear a sucking sound by your door, it's not a backdraft, it's the sound of Dirg's life...
Mardith: suck in that gut like smoke! men post their conquests, women post being a woman...
Eye Luggage: holy shit! is that a young Captain Harkness?!!!...
Dirg: one of JT Walsh's last roles, he disappeared so fast into thin smoke he might as well have died from smoke inhalation...
David Crosby: where was the '70s hippie!!! i didn't see him!!!
Laertus sack-taps Dirg's third shoulder:
Laertus: LOOK ALIVE, PROBIE! it's your turn, go.
Dirg: my backbone can't take all my weight. oh that is such a '90s scene, you think the loud rumbling in the background gonna STRIKE the screen and surprise you with fire!!! but it's just a loud column of water from the hose. get out of the street, stop causing a riot, people are trying to drink beer inside! that firehose rally up the stairs is so '90s it might as well be an anime scene. typical '90s Generation-X slacker, no direction, many hobbies, no career, just a great ass.
Boc: i appreciate the butts in this shower scene, i wish i had a friend i could talk to casually both of us naked, you'd be surprised, we wouldn't look, and these conversations end up being the most meaningful in life...
LIFE Magazine photographer: hey kid i'm gonna shove this old-timey smoke camera in your face at the exact worst moment of your life. thanks, i'll send you the Pulitzer money in the mail...
Dirg: fucking beta Jimmy Olsen!
Donald Sutherland: because of me LIFE Magazine didn't fold. of course you couldn't fold my copy, hard as a rock, you couldn't read my copy cos all the pages were stuck together...
Billy: why do you live out here alone on a boat?
Kurt: marriage is hard.
Billy: is this about the time i stole your Game Genie?
Kurt: LOOK, MAN! you know the waters are rising, climate change is real, this boat will come in handy sooner than you think...
Billy: what's with all these canisters of gas?
Kurt: it's a gas boat...
Eye: it would have been juicier if the brother WAS the arsonist. then you would have had to have Billy kill his own brother!
Rebecca De Mornay: rare movie with TWO sex scenes. but mine was the marriage-sex scene, it's all in the dark and nothing is shown...
De Niro: ah yes, the fireman who smokes cigarettes, classic trope. Rimgale, not the exotic ringtailed lemur who started covid. ugh i hated this movie, have you ever seen me actually TAKE it from the higher-ups in the brass? i'm fucking De Niro! I AIN'T NO MIDDLEMAN!!! and my hair in this is bad, too. i'm not causing a fire, i'm using plastic bottles of cooking oil to make a point...
Martin Yan: i can testify to that...
Laertus: and the fire turns you into Freddy Krueger...
Dirg: ouch! was that real? Kurt's head slams into that light. flashlight...flashover...fleshlight...
Dirg: IDIOT. didn't check the door for warmth! i do that with EVERY sorority door!...
Swayzak: the part was specifically written for Patrick Swayze. Swayzak is the anime name of Patrick Swayze...
Swayzak: i had sway with the other aldermen. what? i was protecting all the little old ladies in the group homes from covid...
De Niro: it's not everyday you get attacked by a masked man at night when you break into a mansion. i coulda punched this mook's lights out if Ron Howard let me! how ironic would it have been to die by sticking my finger in an electric socket. hey, i did say i wanted to make a
POINT
no but seriously, how do i recover from being speared?
Britney: story of my life. help me, Robert De Niro, play my dad in a movie...
Adcox: yeah i'm the cock. but do you blame me? that burn on my back? i play electric guitar in a band. Mice With Matches.
Pat: a-ha! SEE???!!! i've been framed and that is not my good side!
Boc: Dirg, turnout gear does not make you gay. but it certainly helps.
Dirg: EVERY movie ends with Luke vs. Darth on the catwalk...
Mardith: oh my! after that LONG protracted scene full on each corner with fire, i do hope this film won an Oscar...at least for special effects...
Dirg: i would have easily let go of him. i'm not getting emotional here, guess you have to have a brother to know...
Laertus: but i'm your brother.
Rubikon: the inner-city sure is sick of hearing the siren again!
Shaq inside in the back of the speeding ambulance: 10ccs of IcyHot stat!
Dirg: amount of male sperm in each cum...
De Niro: i got a million each for each of my face mannerisms...
Jennifer Jason Leigh: as it ends you realize you have no idea who i am. nothing is explored, my character's story, her backstory, her motivation for climbing the corporate ladder. was i an Olympic hopeful on the vault but then my hips caught on fire? i'm just there to get fucked.
Swayzak: hey things cost money. and manpower is Boc's department. i was downsizing cos of covid. luckily this movie did well in the theatres...
Billy Baldwin: there are a million firefighters in the U.S. it was a billion but backdraft. and the film ends on a somber note, as i now have to learn to navigate life without a father AND a brother. g'night, folks...
Encyclopedia Brown at the station: are you even at least sorry?
Pat: i didn't do it. i was eating at Bob's Burgers across the street...
Encyclopedia: *takes out handcuffs from out his backpocket* where were you at the time of the crime? i mean, look, we haven't nabbed the roaster yet, he seems to have disappeared into thin air which is the ingredient needed for a backdraft. as if he never existed. we booked Kenny Rogers but let him go. but we gotta nail somebody for the media, so you gotta do penance.
Pat: fine but i get to choose...
Encyclopedia leans back on his rolling chair talking to himself:
Encyclopedia: *sigh* Detective Conan was too busy making that anime money off Sherlock's muscular back. RDJ's back on drugs. the NTSB investigator asked me to ask you if you saw a fire in the engine. Stabler is gone this week, he was available every other week...
Encyclopedia: why hasn't there been a cartoon of my book series?...
Pat arrives at the firehouse along the second street curb, its gold pole is broken...
Pat: no stripping today then i see. paint still. hello, Billy Baldwin.
Billy: you here for the tennis lessons?...
for the next weeks to months Pat learns the ropes. of the actual ropes of being a firefighter. until the penalty has been served.
Galivant: are you of service now? are you a man?
Pat: no i'm a fireman.
Galivant: why'd you do it?
Pat: *sigh* look i did learn something from this hell. not the fire part. i underwent actual certified training. i did it for you, i did it for us. in an upstairs bed in the firehouse Billy Baldwin taught me how to cum. Billy Baldwin is HANDSOME!!!
Galivant: that wasn't cum in your sheets, that was oyster stew! you traded mignonette for dollars!
cat familiars: we were out bowling, we smelled the soup from there! why did this firehouse not have a Dalmatian tho? that was weird...
Galivant: how will you not have this happen to you again?
Pat: dunno, i get distracted easily, my tv shows...
Galivant: well you better learn and fast, cos we're getting married...
Pat: you're pregnant?!
Galivant: no this is the real kind of proposal, the gun-control proposal.
Galivant gets down on one knee...
Galivant: will you marry me?
Pat: where's the ring?
Galivant: in my vagina.
Encyclopedia Brown: *takes out handcuffs from out his backpocket* want me to arrest her?...
Pat: i got this, Encyclopedia...
