I believe you guys have to look this up, but the guy who plays The main guy who teaches them how to be ninjas

00:25

Is is the guy from karate kid the old get what's it? Mr. Miyagi? So it was like a weird thing where he's playing the same type of role

00:31

I think but it was like it was over -the -top It was like these three kids are like 10 11 and 12

00:37

They're three brothers Yeah and then of course like a home alone type thing where they're like they learn to be ninjas and they're like beating up whole

00:42

Adults and doing all these weird things and I just remember I was probably like 10 when it came out and we watched that and me and my brother who are a year and a half apart

00:50

We just became obsessed with being ninjas Like we were dressing in black. We're trying to hide up on the ceiling

00:57

We're jumping on people kicking people in the privates our friends out in the front yard

01:02

My mom was like what has gotten into you were like, we're the three ninjas do it sounds like it sounds like a library movie

01:08

Like you know library movies are like the gas licks the the old Netflix like I was definitely one of those

01:14

It was definitely one of those Netflix has terrible movies on hold on I'm gonna library used to be

01:19

I'm gonna look it up right now because now it's bugging me right the three I think it was called the three ninjas

01:25

But I do remember trying to dress up like characters trying to be rocky trying to be anything as Sylvester Stallone was or yeah

01:33

You know, yeah, man. It's like Yeah the three ninjas a series of action comedy family films about the adventures of three young brothers who are trained in their

01:42

Japanese grandfather in The art of Jitsu Victor Wong is the only cast member to appear in all four films.

01:47

Okay, 1992 it came out. Yeah I was 11. Yeah, and then they made just like a whole bunch of them.

01:54

Are you saying three ninjas knuckle -up three ninjas? This kept putting them out for Brian like, you know $800 ,000 like low -budget be movies.

02:02

I'll buy it for five bucks. There you go right on Amazon three ninjas Wow I don't know who is it. I don't know if that guy was in it though.

02:08

I might have been wrong Yeah, I mean there were there were other types of movies though. I mean, I Remember this this one movie called

02:16

Teen Wolf with Michael J Fox. Oh, yeah Yeah, I turned into a werewolf.

02:21

Yeah standing on the school bus. It's a shirt open yeah, the bus on the

02:27

Van or the van? Yeah the my favorite quote from that movie

02:32

So like the cool guy is on the other team on the red team and then there's

02:38

Michael J Fox's team. They're yellow the yellow jersey guys and Anyway, the the there was this one guy that was bigger on Michael J Fox's team.

02:50

Okay, and the cool guy says to the says to the bigger guy goes Shoot it fat boy

03:00

Like behind the three -point line He makes it. Yeah, he's got like this face like oh, yeah your face or whatever

03:08

But it was total 80s what it's like shoot it fat boy because he just gives it the open shot

03:15

Yeah Okay, I got one that you've probably never heard of this movie

03:22

But people who grew up I got some library in the 80s and 90s This was all strictly from like I think it was from like focus on the family

03:30

Okay, so it was like they produced the movie and wrote it and it was just strictly for like Christian families It was called the buttercream gang.

03:38

Okay, if you ever heard of this Okay, if you comment on this video or this podcast if you guys have heard this you're gonna laugh

03:44

But it was so cheesy looking back on it. So it's about this group of kids like neighborhood kids Okay, like Sandlot ish

03:50

Yeah, right and they had a they had a gang in a tree house and they're all like under the age of like 12 Okay, they're like 10 11 12, maybe 13, right?

03:57

Yeah, and there's this in the very first one They're all friends and they're hanging out and they're these little lessons

04:03

One's a newspaper guy and he gets a lesson from the local youth pastor and it's like all very, you know American pie type stuff.

04:09

Yeah right down the middle Christian stuff. And then the one friend Pete has to move away Chicago.

04:15

Oh, right and go to the big city, right and he comes back in six months and It's so cheesy.

04:22

He's just got like a like a rolled -up bandana on you know, like a headband And now he's got like a black all black like button -up like cholo kind of and they're like, is he in a gang?

04:33

Oh my god, and Pete's changed He's in a gang right and that's but it's so funny because the reason why he was so bad is because he went to Chicago He joined a gang, but they steal from convenience stores.

04:44

They steal like candy bars Steals $8 from his aunt and he's like made is this like, you know what

04:51

I mean? It was like so over the top, right, but that's like all we were allowed to watch as a kid We're like Oh pizza rebel.
