So I got this thing about 80's movies. I feel like I grew up in the 80's and I do think the era is quirky but I like it. One movie I enjoy for some odd reason is Road House. I watch this quirky cliche movie at least once a year. A few weeks back I was at my wifes employers christmas party and was mingling to one of her coworkers, Karl. He is into cosplay, dresses up as a Mandalorian Warrior (if you know what this is then your are a geek like me), and goes to conventions, fundraisers, and such. So the topic of movies comes up and somehow Road House is mentioned.
There is one part of the movie that stands out to me because it seems out of place but makes it interesting. There is a finale fight between the protaganist "I thought you would be bigger" Dalton and the bad guy's body guard Jimmy. The fight isn't all the special but there is a line near the end that Johnny say's that is just so out there it makes the movie in my opinion "I used to fuck guy's like you in prison".
So I tell Karl about this and he tells me that Marshall Teague (actor that played Jimmy) is in his costume group. I said "wow, don't bend over in front of him" and it basically ends there, so I thought. Over the weekend there was some Star Trek convention in Dallas and Karl was in attendance. Last night my wife comes home from work and brings me a surprise from Karl. personally autographed photo
I was told he censored it when signing because he didn't want to be offensive, I am still laughing about it and have mounted it in my cubicle at work :-)
