episode 18: Commando (1985) commentary track
Light up the candles on the cake because it's Lu's birthday month! To celebrate, Travis & Luana take a break from kaiju flicks and let off some steam with the 1985 actionfest COMMANDO! They discuss why the movie remains one of Lu's favorites, the worldwide stardom of Arnold Schwarzenegger, how the movie's macho masculinity may not be toxic, the oiled-up homoerotic tension between John Matrix and Bennett, and more!
NOTE: To sync this commentary with the film, pause the movie as soon as the 20th Century Fox logo appears on-screen at the beginning. A countdown to press the play button is included in the commentary's intro.
