writerjessa.bsky.social•144 days ago

I love Jumpin' Jack Flash. No one ever recognizes when I do bits from it. "Do the world a favor. Get yourself an office! With a desk, and a lamp!"

annaguirre.bsky.social•144 days ago

Sidenote: I own the movie and I played it for my son (25).

He's now watched it several time with me. So now, quotes from JJF have become part of our shared culture. 😀

annaguirre.bsky.social•144 days ago

I would recognize all of them. I can basically do the lines along with the actors.

"Get Larry the heavyset guard!"

"Can't help you now, Mr. Page."

writerjessa.bsky.social•144 days ago

Man, now I gotta watch that movie again.

Holy mackerel! I bought the DVD for Cold Comfort Farm ever so long ago and we watch it regularly. Very few have even heard of it. “There’ll be no butter in hell!”

skyladawn.ca•144 days ago

We do not talk enough about Geena Davis doing those stunts in Cutthroat Island.

isobelcarr.com•144 days ago

Or how amazing she is in The Long Kiss Goodnight.

skyladawn.ca•144 days ago

SO fucking good, that's such a great film.

cmdrsue.bsky.social•144 days ago

I based my D&D podcast ranger on her character. And then utterly failed at being her!!!

cmdrsue.bsky.social•144 days ago

We also don't talk enough about her trying out for the Olympics in archery. (Kinda sad she didn't make it.)

skyladawn.ca•144 days ago

She should be a huge action star, she's so good. Like should have been in the 90s but also should be now too, she's great.

cmdrsue.bsky.social•144 days ago

The last thing I saw her in she played the mom of a badass spy woman. Let Geena be the badass spy woman!

obsidianmichi.bsky.social•144 days ago

Can I interest you in "A Long Kiss Goodnight" where Geena Davis plays a badass spy woman?

imaginaryghfan.bsky.social•144 days ago

Bedazzled! I love that movie.

I re-watch it regularly. It has SO MANY amazing performers in it.

buriedbybooks.bsky.social•144 days ago

It does! And the shredder vs dress scene is so funny it makes me howl.
