Johnny Dangerously (1984)

Listen up, you fargin' iceholes: This week, Cozi and The Mothers are gonna try to convince special guest co-host Pete Byrnes to watch 1984's classic gangster spoof Johnny Dangerously at the Savoy Theater tonight, pass it on. My father asked me to listen to a podcast once...once!

Also Discussed: Classic spoofs, American gangster movies vs. Italian/Italian-American mob films vs. British gangster movies, Amy Heckerling, Michael Keaton, stereotypical hetero male genres, gangster movies vs. noir films, and"Weird Al" Yancovic.

Recommendations:

Pete – The films of Chadwick Boseman (RIP)

Cozi – Finding John Campbell's Michael Keaton/Birdman webcomics

Johnny Dangerously is impossible to find on streaming sites, so buy a used DVD or something! Woo, physical media!
