Can't wait till you review Troma's War.<br /><br />Also, apparently during the filming of the taco place hold-up, Kilpatrick became so distraught about having to hold a gun on a baby that he excused himself and never came back to the set.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-63391781370632706682011-11-26T13:30:52.096-05:002011-11-26T13:30:52.096-05:00Yeah, you gotta love Toxic Avenger.Yeah, you gotta love Toxic Avenger.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-69132993120411838792011-11-26T13:06:19.947-05:002011-11-26T13:06:19.947-05:00Good stuff.Good stuff.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10936818849749255253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-43089297201209670922011-11-26T07:57:05.117-05:002011-11-26T07:57:05.117-05:00Great review of a classic Troma flick.

I definitely saw the symbolism too, with the McDonald's as toxic waste, especially after finding out that Michael Herz is a health nut too. I have a friend who's an enormous fitness nut, and he's always eating McDonald's, but I notice he stays to the value menu and doesn't usually go over 1000 calories total for his meal. The extra value meal is what gets you.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-4321729167628809872011-11-25T20:55:00.343-05:002011-11-25T20:55:00.343-05:00I just looked into it and apparently in 2009 McDon...I just looked into it and apparently in 2009 McDonalds Australia reduced our bun size by half an inch from 4.5 to 4, to bring it into line with the US, across their whole range. The meat now goes to the edge where as before it would have half an inch of toasted bread padding. I much prefer it before, to be honest. Wow is this ever a tangent. Well perhaps not, Macca's burgers are pretty Toxic.Explosive Actionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443543631273036178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-87812402906423291712011-11-25T20:47:39.814-05:002011-11-25T20:47:39.814-05:00That's awesome, a signed VHS.

And I wonder about the Quarter Pounder, if they've gotten smaller, or if we've gotten bigger. I haven't done one in a while myself-- I'm more of a Big Mac guy-- but maybe I'll make one happen tomorrow just for shits and grins.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-51025163347165946852011-11-25T20:14:25.963-05:002011-11-25T20:14:25.963-05:00Somehow the Toxic Avenger movies have passed me by...Somehow the Toxic Avenger movies have passed me by, though I did receive a VHS of part 2 signed by the cast as a prize last week. And boy damn do I remember the white and blue styrofoam fillet-o-fish container! They were the same out here. I had a Quarter Pounder yesterday for the first time in ages and I swear they have shrunk to Junior burger size...Explosive Actionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443543631273036178noreply@blogger.com
