Lost in all the Hulk Hogans, Stone Colds, and The Rocks, is the greatest wrestling character of all time. Roddy Piper. He was a smart ass and as a heel still had you rooting for him. His bigotry hysterical, his one liners epic, his on/off switch predictably awesome. I'll never forget him busting Jimmy Snuka upside the head with a coconut. 7 different layers of greatness.

Love the fight scene! Trying to wake normies is like trying to get Frank to put on the glasses.

I loved the legit wrestling moves they were doing in that fight scene! Good seeing a young Keith David!

Based movie now. At the time it was John Carpenter's "take down" of Ronald Reagan and the "republican elite." My how times have changed.

A person can be right for the wrong reason. Perhaps he subconsciously knew something was wrong but had attributed the wrong source

Happens a TON in Hollywood. When you look at the movies that 'hit' they are almost always rooted in conservative beliefs.

This happens frequently. People will kneejerk toward something they've been told is "evil" and they don't investigate. It happens so much it's got it's own name (kinda): Dunning-Kruger.

Fuck yea. Crazy how movies from my early 20's that I loved and were profoundly impacted by were almost warnings at the same time. It's like all the cultural works of art that impacted me the most were shit like this. I finally bought it today, took a fat dab and felt like I was 22 again watching it for the first time and remembered how different things were when I saw it. Like other people have said here, it's almost like the people making this world "clown world" are doing it on purpose at this point just to trigger us into doing something stupid. I'm just glad this site exists because for the past 5-6 years reddit has changed massively, just like Digg changed, just like video games changed and movies and culture and politics, and I could go on and on and on. They have all changed, but in an unfortunately predictable (in a bad way) fashion. Change isn't bad, but this is like being in the back of a roller coaster visually seeing where it's gonna drop but having to wait until the front goes down first.

Could not have said it better. Roddy was awesome.
