The great irony of Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo is that if they had just let the evil Land Developer build his shopping mall, today they would have an even bigger abandoned building to break dance in.
That could have been the Breakin' reboot. The original cast meets up with a new group of characters in the now abandoned mall that replaced their dance hall, and teaches them how to do cool moves.

@@vengeanceforcatalonia8935 When I lived in the French Quarter, I used to drink at this bar called Fahey's. It was catty-cornered from a hotel, so a lot of tourists would drink there.

At the local, family owned, movie rental place when I was a child, my brother and I saw a new “Ernest” film. We were so excited that we read the box wrong. We cheered “ERNEST RIDES A CANNON! ERNEST RIDES A CANNON!!” Much to our disappointment we were corrected by our mother after we had rented the film that it was actually “Ernest Rides Again.” We were bummed but we knew we would like any Ernest movie so we watched it anyway. Wouldn’t you know it? He rides a goddamned cannon in that movie. You could not contain our joy.
Cannibal Holocaust is a movie that most film aficionados know for a few reasons. The movie is banned in a few countries, and Deodato was almost charged with crimes based on the content of his film. I won't spoil if you're interested in experiencing it, but the movie is extremely brutal and offensive to most who view it. The practical effects are really good. I first saw stills from the movie in Fangoria magazine.
I've never heard of this show until about 7 days ago. I've been binge watching it non-stop even when I sleep LOL literally I can't stop watching. I've watched nothing else for the last 7 days🤣🏆
The sensation of exploration, the hazing of Rich 'The sexiest man alive' Evans, Jay's..quirks. Mikes impending death by alcohol poisoning and how they make it just so wholesome!
Chronological order was a whole different experience once I started. It's incredible watching all the inside gags and references, the names they choose for characters, and the ebb and flow of alcoholism they've all been through (except for Rich, who is of course a devout Muslim).
Out of three content creators I've seen review The Barbarians (Spoony, Jason Brant), RLM are the first to realize the villain is defeated by forgetting he'd been missing two fingers 15 years prior to the scene.
I KNEW I had watched a review of that movie before but I couldn't remember who did it, but you saying that Spoony did one immediately confirms that it was him.
I saw both of these at the movies (Breakin' and Breakin' 2) when they came out in Australia. EVERYBODY saw them. Break dancing was everywhere. It completely took over our primary school.
He was on fire. I also appreciated when they asked “ how will Turbo top the broom scene “ ?, Rich piped in “a vacuum ?” Can’t top Rich Evans for the comedy gold.
As a German I must say "Barbarians" is a cultural treasure, particularly in its German dub because in that time our dubbing companies did not give a shit and did whatever they wanted with the dialogue so upped the comedy like they did with various Italian western at the time.
@@Level1Hera Generic Japanese anime about kids solving ghost mysteries. Sold like shit in Japan, so the studio got in touch with an American dubbing company and said "Carte Blanche. Make it sell, we don't care how." The dubbing studio went absolutely no holds barred nuts with it, effectively an Abridged Series except they were paid to do it. It's glorious. "Just fill the hole, hole filler."
@@dmd8552 That could have been their gimmick. The two wrestling bros would secretly loved each other. It would have been the only thing that could make early WWE more homoerotic
@@AsiaDanceScene One is heel, one is face, forbidden romance both incestuous and political. There are special "eat my ass" matches starring the Barbarians forbidden to show on TV.
it's really an anomaly... their physiques are ridiculous, they act better than other wrestlers we've seen in films and they don't have a personality of a brick... they would have been fan favourites for sure...
There was no shortage of roided up muscle men in the WWE and other federations back then. Also, being big ain't enough: you need to go through proper in-ring training in order to become a wrestler, which is hard AF and not everyone is willing to do it.
I saw both Breakin’ and Breakin’ 2 in the theaters. I was born in 1974 and grew up in Northern CA in a culturally diverse community. These movies were for me. All of us had cardboard at home to work out our dance moves and Hip Hop was life. These movies were very important to my young life. Just dance, man! Dance!
Just wanted to say thank you to RLM for putting all of this out for free. These videos help me through bad times and make good times even better. Thanks again, guys.
The "Other" credit for the Barbarian Brothers are 2 deleted scenes for Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers (1994). The scenes are included in a featurette on the director's cut of the film. The scene consists of Mickey and Mallory Knox (played by Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis) breaking into the brothers' home and cutting off their legs with a chainsaw. The brothers both do the exact same grunt during this scene that they do in the hanging scene at 9:43 of this video. The second scene they appear in consists of journalist Wayne Gale (played by Robert Downey Jr.) interviewing the brothers, now amputees in wheelchairs, saying that they don't blame Mickey and Mallory Knox for injuring them because it's made them stronger. The more you know!
I finally have something relevant to say about an RLM video! I met Shabba Doo aka Ozone about 10 years ago when he came to our dance studio to teach a workshop. He passed away 2 years ago, but he truly did, I assume purely to spite Mike, just dance, all the time, forever.
I'd like to think he's still dancing in the afterlife, just happily doin' whatever moves come to mind and enjoying that his body is now incapable of exhaustion.
As a Japanese I was startled by the Japanese content suddenly started playing at the end. FYI, it's a show called Waratte iitomo (It's Okay to Laugh), and the man in sunglasses is still the most famous MC in Japan.
I reckon Mike will be at his happiest in life as an elderly, it’s his lifelong dream to become one after all and to live all their misery and suffering
Fun fact Matt Hunter is the name of the character Chuck Norris played in the last Cannon Christmas. Avenging Force was supposed to be a sequel to Invasion USA but Chuck Norris turned them down. So this is a sequel inside of a sequel and helped me forget that I'm all alone this Christmas because no one loves me
Michael Dudikoff has been making movies nobody watches for 42 years as per IMDB. That is some career! I remember watching Avenging Force like over and over when I was around 10. He was also the American Ninja which was a super bad ass movie series for 10 y/o's. No idea how copies of those tapes found their way into my house but it was an honor and a privilege to have seen them. Hats off to Michael Dudikoff.
In 2016 i was in the hospital for Christmas for cancer treatments and that year's BOTW made me fell a whole hell of a lot better. 6 years later and i still want to thank you guys for all you do, and there is probably someone right now as well, in a shitty situation, where you guys joking about bad movies just made their entire week bearable. So thanks.
I hope you're doing better dude. I'm in a shitty situation right now and have been binging RLM to keep me sane. Maybe I'll look back on this in 6 years too. Thanks RLM for keeping me basically alive, though I'm sure you'd just mock me relentlessly irl.
You're right, man, I've been isolating with a bad case of covid and this really cheered me up. These guys are so much better than anything the legacy media has put out in decades.
I happened to be at a literary event years ago for the promotion of a friend's book and I got to sit next to this exotic, very tall, matronly lady for dinner and we have a chat and it turns out she's a professor of Pacific mythology and literature. I mention my background in gaming and game design and she mentions she played in a fantasy movie. Turns out she was a model in the 1980's, did all the catwalks in Italy, featured in commercials and played the part of China/Evil Lynn in the Barbarians ...
Jay instantly catches the freaking Ghetto Blaster throwaway character, but nobody catches that the lead of Breakin' 2 is also the lead of Ninja 3: The Domination.
Both the Sword and Sorcery type movies of the 80s and D&D came from the same source of the plethora of swords and sorcery fantasy novels of the 70s, 60s and 50s. So yeah, totally.
@@sophiaperennis2360 Oh no doubt. Edgar Rice Borroughs was writing his John Carter of Mars books way back in 1917. But the main inspiration behind D&D book wise were the later pulp novels, particularly the Dying Earth books(Vecna is an anagram of Vance Gygax included to honour him) and these kinda derivative movies were often more closely based on the equally derivative pale immitators to things like Dying Earth, John Carter, and Conan. Which were more prevalent in the 50s, 60s and particularly 70s.
@@sophiaperennis2360 I've only read one of his books, and it was like 20 years ago by now, but it certainly stuck with me. I really should check out some more of his stuff!
Just popping back in to say Vance is a legend! Vancian magic is still embedded in my brain as one of the coolest ways to conceptualize an arcane force.
I love how the Barbarian brothers just go all in, medieval new jersey meatheads totally in character giving 200%. Just a damn entertaining movie if you ask me.
Oh wow. When I was a kid one of my favorite cheesy movies was Think Big, starring the Barbarian Bros as down on their luck truckers who wind up helping a child genius on the run from an evil tech company that wants to use one of her ideas to make weapons. Classic stuff. At the time I had no idea they were called that, and I never saw them in anything else.
The entire Barbarian Bros section made me really interested in seeing their other work. They may have made a new legion of fans today. ...But that does beg the question. I wonder what these these two grossly overmuscled freaks look like now that they're elderly.
@@beavinator but they actually looked really good for +55, especially considering their steroid use. But it sure takes its toll on the organs. And they still wear these weirdly cut shirts from the 80s on newer pics haha
The valley girl from Barbarians is Eva Larue. She was in CSI Miami for years as Boa Vista. I recognized her immediately bc I watch wayyyy too many reruns of CSI. 😎
I also recognized her but couldn't put my finger on it so I did some searching. In 1991 Eva was a co-host on _Candid Camera_ with Dom DeLuise. I mostly remember Dom was painfully unfunny. _Barbarians_ was her acting debut. Not bad all things considered LOL
I'm psyched that they decided to do another Cannon Christmas special. That first one is easily my favorite of all the Christmas episodes they've done, if only for the part where Charles Bronson obliterates the lead villain with a bazooka 😂
I wanna hear Rich Evans talk more about Deep Space 9 dammit! That Gul Dukat reference was golden, and the actor who played him did such an incredible job!!!
@@MonkehBuns If that is so, then it is hard to know. Hope you and all your loved ones are safe and will have a fun and happy christmas. -----> Look at this nice present 🎁 it might be the entire Bond collection on the new format VHS 😉
I love how after Mike says you skipped your chemo treatment and you think they are about to have a heartwarming moment Mike just says "You gotta check your email bro"
Tim if you are reading this, we all appreciate you very much thanks for being in this show whenever you can. I can tell you are a very cool guy and your sense of humor blends perfectly with the gang like no other recurring guest.
Being from the South, watching Mike butcher N’awlins and then not only not apologize, but dig in with a bone saw and just start ripping it to shreds made me angry and then gleefully happy.
Rich you're wrong. Wrath of Khan came out in '82, Search for Spock was '84. I can't believe such a huge mistake was made by such an avid start wreck fan.
I used to love The Barbarians as a kid. I used to watch it every time it came on HBO. Still remember some of those scenes. I could be a genius, if my brain didn't insist on saving old terrible movie scenes.
And Rich was keeping the fact he had seen Breakin’ in his back pocket. I can’t recall any other time any of the guys had seen a BOTW/Plinketto movie beforehand.
One of my oldest memories is seeing Breakin 2 at the drive through, in a double feature with Buckaroo Banzai. I would have been 3 years old and it's left an indelible memory.
Another fun fact- Electric Boogaloo borrowed the revolving room for the ceiling dance scene from the Nightmare on Elm Street set- the one used for Tina’s death scene (and possibly Johnny Depp’s bedroom also).
I felt very proud of myself when before Jay revealed who it was, I knew who the black "what are you doing with my cat" guy was. It was something I knew and I clapped!
Man if those barbarian brothers were playing gym guys sucked into a fantasy world and they didn't think it was real, it would have been a fantastic idea
I legit thought this whole episode was gonna be on that small laptop next to santa and then when the intro cut i thought it was just a black screen with santa pointing at it for 2 hours. You hacks have made me go insane
I don’t know why but Jay isn’t the only one to be unable to forget the “what are you doin to my cat” guy. That poor old man pleading for the life of his cat has been etched into the back of my mind for years since I first saw that episode.
@@milliondollarmistake I'm Italian and I love every time Mike, Rich and Tim go for an Italian parody accent. I mean, Yankees are a neverending source of inspiration for mockery themselves, it's just fair play at this point.
I always loved the barbarian brothers movies ( Peter paul and david paul) they were dumb but fun ... Thanks to them and their movies I started hitting the gym and like bodybuilding
Every now and then, a BOTW will re-awaken a hazy childhood memory. That cage fight scene where the brothers are busting up their helmets and that dude's hand gets chopped off was definitely something I saw when I was very, very young. It came flooding back to me the moment I saw the arena. Now I know it's from a B-Movie called Barbarians, and that my parents had absolutely no problem letting a five year-old sit there and watch it - boobs and all.
It’s sweet that even these sad middle-aged shlubs can appreciate peace and harmony like that. It’s no small thing, that this concept is so present in their minds that they’ll point it out if they see something that looks like it.
A high point in my high school was when Shabadoo and Boogaloo Shrimp, stars of breakin' 2, electric boogaloo came to my high school and did a breakdancing masterclass. For weeks afterwards the hallways were littered with people flailing around on cardboard.
Steve James (Avenging Force) was always one of those B-movie action stars that I hoped would get more recognition. I was obsessed with low budget action movies as a kid (of which he was always the comedic martial artist sidekick), so whenever I wanted to conjure up my inner BADASS, he was always around. RIP my guy, two decades later and I still mourn the lost potential
Electric Boogaloo is a dance style created by Bogaloo Sam in the 1976, that was later renamed Popping. In the Breakin movies they dance Locking and Popping, the two funky styles developed during the hip-hop boom, so it has perfect sense that the sequel is called like that.
44:26 Hey, in defense of the Barbarian Brother's performance - they seem like pretty good actors, to be honest. In all of the clips shown, they played off each other super well, delivered all their lines without any flubs or awkwardness, stayed totally 'in character' (for what that's worth)... Kind of makes me wonder if they ever got to play roles in an actually good movie, and what that would look like.
Yeah, their performances actually seem pretty enjoyable, they're just horribly misdirected if the intent was to make a serious barbarian brawlers movie.
As someone born in the early 80s I somehow have no idea who that is, except the vague feeling that he might have done a song for the Matthew Broderick Godzilla movie, which I never actually saw.
@@Joescotterpuss I could google it, but then the knowledge would take up precious space in my memory, and I'm not gonna give Jamiroquai the satisfaction!
@@korganrocks3995 Jamiroquai only has 1 good song, and it's only good if you're watching the video. You're not missing anything unless you like cheesy 90s dance moves (cheesy but well done for the style they're in). I think the constantly moving floor was the only reason the "Virtual Insanity" video was so popular.
When I was in eighth grade, my mom took me to my aunt's in Atlanta for Thanksgiving. One of my aunt's friends had a son my age who said to me, "you're from New York and you can't breakdance?" This episode makes me understand that Breakin' II may have set unrealistic expectations in the zeitgeist of the day that people from certain places just walked around breakdancing all day every day
The great irony of Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo is that if they had just let the evil Land Developer build his shopping mall, today they would have an even bigger abandoned building to break dance in.
Rich Evans really should have been in that video
Damn, your mind works on a different level.
That could have been the Breakin' reboot. The original cast meets up with a new group of characters in the now abandoned mall that replaced their dance hall, and teaches them how to do cool moves.
Break dancin went out of style about twenty years before malls did…

As a German I must say "Barbarians" is a cultural treasure, particularly in its German dub because in that time our dubbing companies did not give a shit and did whatever they wanted with the dialogue so upped the comedy like they did with various Italian western at the time.

There was no shortage of roided up muscle men in the WWE and other federations back then. Also, being big ain't enough: you need to go through proper in-ring training in order to become a wrestler, which is hard AF and not everyone is willing to do it.
I saw both Breakin’ and Breakin’ 2 in the theaters. I was born in 1974 and grew up in Northern CA in a culturally diverse community. These movies were for me.

The "Other" credit for the Barbarian Brothers are 2 deleted scenes for Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers (1994). The scenes are included in a featurette on the director's cut of the film. The scene consists of Mickey and Mallory Knox (played by Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis) breaking into the brothers' home and cutting off their legs with a chainsaw. The brothers both do the exact same grunt during this scene that they do in the hanging scene at 9:43 of this video. The second scene they appear in consists of journalist Wayne Gale (played by Robert Downey Jr.) interviewing the brothers, now amputees in wheelchairs, saying that they don't blame Mickey and Mallory Knox for injuring them because it's made them stronger.
The more you know!
I finally have something relevant to say about an RLM video! I met Shabba Doo aka Ozone about 10 years ago when he came to our dance studio to teach a workshop. He passed away 2 years ago, but he truly did, I assume purely to spite Mike, just dance, all the time, forever.
I'd like to think he's still dancing in the afterlife, just happily doin' whatever moves come to mind and enjoying that his body is now incapable of exhaustion.
As a Japanese I was startled by the Japanese content suddenly started playing at the end.
FYI, it's a show called Waratte iitomo (It's Okay to Laugh), and the man in sunglasses is still the most famous MC in Japan.
NANI?!?!?!?!?
I like that it basically says "Put the commercial here" when the Barbarian Brothers start singing.

Finally, you've started watching Michael Dudikoff movies. My favorite b-movie action hero. Please do more.
The biggest tragedy of not watching Breakin' is missing the Jean Claude van Damme cameo, dancing awkwardly on the beach

That barbarian twins movie has massive early D&D energy.
Both the Sword and Sorcery type movies of the 80s and D&D came from the same source of the plethora of swords and sorcery fantasy novels of the 70s, 60s and 50s. So yeah, totally.
@@sophiaperennis2360 Oh no doubt. Edgar Rice Borroughs was writing his John Carter of Mars books way back in 1917. But the main inspiration behind D&D book wise were the later pulp novels, particularly the Dying Earth books(Vecna is an anagram of Vance Gygax included to honour him) and these kinda derivative movies were often more closely based on the equally derivative pale immitators to things like Dying Earth, John Carter, and Conan. Which were more prevalent in the 50s, 60s and particularly 70s.
@@sophiaperennis2360 I've only read one of his books, and it was like 20 years ago by now, but it certainly stuck with me. I really should check out some more of his stuff!

If you listen to the 1900 hotdog podcast (Seanbaby from Cracked) - they are obsessed with the Barbarian twins & actually ran a D&D version of it
I love how the Barbarian brothers just go all in, medieval new jersey meatheads totally in character giving 200%. Just a damn entertaining movie if you ask me.
Mike's New Orleans's accent is a perfect impression of Steven Seagal.
Oh wow. When I was a kid one of my favorite cheesy movies was Think Big, starring the Barbarian Bros as down on their luck truckers who wind up helping a child genius on the run from an evil tech company that wants to use one of her ideas to make weapons.

The valley girl from Barbarians is Eva Larue. She was in CSI Miami for years as Boa Vista. I recognized her immediately bc I watch wayyyy too many reruns of CSI. 😎
Oh shoot, that's where I know her from! That's up there with Uncle Phill in Beastmaster 2!
I also recognized her but couldn't put my finger on it so I did some searching. In 1991 Eva was a co-host on _Candid Camera_ with Dom DeLuise. I mostly remember Dom was painfully unfunny.
_Barbarians_ was her acting debut. Not bad all things considered LOL
I recognized her from this because she’s got a fucking hot face.
She wasn't in any Star Trek, so - meh
I'm psyched that they decided to do another Cannon Christmas special. That first one is easily my favorite of all the Christmas episodes they've done, if only for the part where Charles Bronson obliterates the lead villain with a bazooka 😂

I used to love The Barbarians as a kid. I used to watch it every time it came on HBO. Still remember some of those scenes. I could be a genius, if my brain didn't insist on saving old terrible movie scenes.
the twist at the end with Rich being already familiar with Braking 2 is breathtaking.

Another fun fact- Electric Boogaloo borrowed the revolving room for the ceiling dance scene from the Nightmare on Elm Street set- the one used for Tina’s death scene (and possibly Johnny Depp’s bedroom also).
I was wondering if it was the same one used for Lionel Richie’s “Dancing on the Ceiling” video.
I felt very proud of myself when before Jay revealed who it was, I knew who the black "what are you doing with my cat" guy was. It was something I knew and I clapped!
See, I was the other way around, where when I saw him in that episode I was like "Oooh, its the fucking dude who runs Miracles!"
"What's-a going on? Where the camera pointing?"
-Ruggero Deodato, director of The Barbarians (1987)
Man if those barbarian brothers were playing gym guys sucked into a fantasy world and they didn't think it was real, it would have been a fantastic idea
Alien From L.A.- the Cannon film starring Kathy Ireland- does pretty much this. Maybe the Barbarian Brothers caused them to improve their concept!
I legit thought this whole episode was gonna be on that small laptop next to santa and then when the intro cut i thought it was just a black screen with santa pointing at it for 2 hours. You hacks have made me go insane
Yes.

Every now and then, a BOTW will re-awaken a hazy childhood memory. That cage fight scene where the brothers are busting up their helmets and that dude's hand gets chopped off was definitely something I saw when I was very, very young. It came flooding back to me the moment I saw the arena. Now I know it's from a B-Movie called Barbarians, and that my parents had absolutely no problem letting a five year-old sit there and watch it - boobs and all.

Hahaha same for me. We had a VHS of this for some reason.
You've got cool parents.
rich said that he imagined star trek's earth all just break dancing all the time in peace and harmony. fucking glorious
It’s sweet that even these sad middle-aged shlubs can appreciate peace and harmony like that.
It’s no small thing, that this concept is so present in their minds that they’ll point it out if they see something that looks like it.
A high point in my high school was when Shabadoo and Boogaloo Shrimp, stars of breakin' 2, electric boogaloo came to my high school and did a breakdancing masterclass. For weeks afterwards the hallways were littered with people flailing around on cardboard.
Steve James (Avenging Force) was always one of those B-movie action stars that I hoped would get more recognition. I was obsessed with low budget action movies as a kid (of which he was always the comedic martial artist sidekick), so whenever I wanted to conjure up my inner BADASS, he was always around. RIP my guy, two decades later and I still mourn the lost potential
Yeah, he was great. He was a tough dude but was only 41 when he died of cancer in 1993.
Been rewatching the older Christmas episodes in anticipation for this drop, happy friggin’ holidays you hooligans ❤
Electric Boogaloo is a dance style created by Bogaloo Sam in the 1976, that was later renamed Popping. In the Breakin movies they dance Locking and Popping, the two funky styles developed during the hip-hop boom, so it has perfect sense that the sequel is called like that.
Like the movie is an icon of the hip-hop culture and inspired a lot of people, including myself, to start dancing.
How does one get the name Boogaloo Sam? That’s a story I’d watch

44:26 Hey, in defense of the Barbarian Brother's performance - they seem like pretty good actors, to be honest. In all of the clips shown, they played off each other super well, delivered all their lines without any flubs or awkwardness, stayed totally 'in character' (for what that's worth)...
Kind of makes me wonder if they ever got to play roles in an actually good movie, and what that would look like.
Thye had bit parts in Natural Born Killers apparently, playing stylised versions of themselves. But they ended up on the cutting room floor.

I just want to say that I appreciate Jay's Jamiroquai joke.
As someone born in the early 80s I somehow have no idea who that is, except the vague feeling that he might have done a song for the Matthew Broderick Godzilla movie, which I never actually saw.
@@korganrocks3995 He might have. We have no way of knowing.
@@Joescotterpuss I could google it, but then the knowledge would take up precious space in my memory, and I'm not gonna give Jamiroquai the satisfaction!
@@korganrocks3995 Jamiroquai only has 1 good song, and it's only good if you're watching the video. You're not missing anything unless you like cheesy 90s dance moves (cheesy but well done for the style they're in). I think the constantly moving floor was the only reason the "Virtual Insanity" video was so popular.
When I was in eighth grade, my mom took me to my aunt's in Atlanta for Thanksgiving. One of my aunt's friends had a son my age who said to me, "you're from New York and you can't breakdance?" This episode makes me understand that Breakin' II may have set unrealistic expectations in the zeitgeist of the day that people from certain places just walked around breakdancing all day every day
I'm glad Tim himself has become a holiday tradition.
Happy to see Jay made an Eyes Wide Shut ref because he watched it recently too.
He dropped a short edited clip from EWS on his personal youtube channel a few months ago. That movie must have been a lot on his mind lately.
Instead of the ruby, Richard Lynch should have been in pursuit of that "show off! Be fun at parties" tape they watched on WOTW
