Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

 ... you can learn from:

Road House (2024)

Dalton: You know that conchs produce pearls?

Ellie: Yes.

Dalton: And that they have ornate spiral...

Ellie: Shells. Yes, everyone knows that.

Dalton: That one in every 15,000 produces a pink pearl. 

Ellie: Sounds romantic. Unless you're a conch. 

Because what actually happens is the conch gets a bit 

of grit inside its shell, which causes extreme irritation.

Dalton: "Extreme irritation"... that leads 

to something beautiful. How is that not romantic?

Okay I don't want to encourage the Road House remake too much because I really didn't love it, but I will admit that the last time I was home visiting friends I somehow ended up re-watching it and it washed over me with less spite a second time. I'm now of the mind that it's more harmless than anything -- but still give the esteem the original holds as far as being a perfect piece of trash cinema, "harmless" isn't cutting anybody's mustard. But here on our Jake's 44th birthday as we wish him a very happy day we'll allow it. And if nothing else...

... Jake knew well enough to not skimp on the exploitation and to stay properly half-naked for most of the movie. He's a good boy. Have you seen this video of his hot ass practising an action scene? I only just caught this one last week:

I will be watching the sequel. 

Happy birthday, Jake!
