Howdy, folks.  No Comments of the Week prize to give away this week, just bragging rights and this awesome greasy sax man gif to be enjoyed by all (via Thighs Wide Shut).

As always, the way this works is, at any time this week, when you read a comment you think worthy of recognition, YOU nominate it by copy and pasting it in the comments section of THIS post below.  I pick the winner from among the nominees the following Sunday/Monday. (To help you find it more easily, the nomination thread is always linked in the ABOUT section).

Got it newbs?  Good.  Anyway, let’s start this off with the always-popular ex-wife joke.  Stone Soup from the HUMPDAY TRAILER thread:

• Stone Soup says: “My ex wife f-cked my straight best friend and won a prize – my furniture.”

Unless you’re a total newcomer to this site, you know that Greasy Sax Man video can mean only one thing: Lost Boys news.

TV writer Evan Charnov (Fearless) has been tapped to pen the screenplay for The Lost Boys 3, Warner Premiere’s next direct-to-disc sequel to the classic teen-vamp film from 1987. In addition, Corey Feldman has come on to produce and will also return once again as Edgar Frog. We’re told this film will actually focus on Feldman’s popular character (thank God). Corey Haim’s return as Sam Emerson is highly, highly unlikely at this point in time. [BloodyDisgusting]

At this point, the Lost Boys franchise is less about movies than it is a New Deal scheme to keep the Coreys employed.  That only one Corey is occupied is really a waste of investor’s money. The government needs to step in before he goes rape crazy at a petting zoo or starts rapping..

The Original Greasy Sax Scene: Damn, those hips don’t lie, am I right ladies and queers?

Most FilmDrunkards will probably recognize the name of Greasy Sax Dude, from the infamous opening beach scene in Lost Boys, which I’ve posted and linked to countless times.  But up until now, few of us knew who he really was: composer, musician, and all around greasy shirtless dude Timmy Cappello.  And when he wasn’t getting greased up to play sax in Lost Boys, he was getting greased up to play sax with the likes of  Tina Turner, Ringo Starr, Peter Gabriel, and Carly Simon.  These days it seems he’s been branching out, often getting greased up to play acoustic guitar.  You’ll also be glad to note that he still wears the same necklace – made of steel, just like his pecs.  With any luck, he’ll soon single-handedly usher in a new era of greasy folk music.

I don’t usually do this, but after I sent Chodin a Lost Boys 2: The Tribe DVD as his Comment of the Week prize, he sent me his review.  Despite the fact that it took him no less than six emails to get it properly attached, and his email address has “Tim Allen” in the title, it’s actually a pretty fine review.  Anyway, without further ado, here it is, and no, I didn’t understand the picture either. -Vince

Hey, remember the time you made your copy of The Lost Boys make out with your Point Break DVD?  Well guess what, asshole: they just had a f-cking baby.

The Lost Boys sequel, recently full-released on DVD, because theaters would rather burn to the ground than thread its 94 minutes through their projectors. Aptly titled Lost Boys: The Tribe, this time around we follow Victor and Thomas, two young Native American men, who don’t do shit all day except for ride around and talk about John Wayne’s teeth.

Lost Boys news means Greasy Sax Dude video.  It’s the law.

Even after Corey Haim spent thousands of his own money promoting himself and filmed a “reality” show, his hopes for a movie career still seem to be tied to continuing the Lost Boys franchise, which isn’t really a franchise.

“I’ve seen the whole movie LOST BOYS: THE TRIBE], I don’t like it, to be honest with you,” Haim tells SpookyDan on the red carpet of the 6th annual Eyegore Awards. “I’m not gonna lie to you, I don’t like it as much as the first one,” he continues, “There’s HALLOWEEN 1 and 2 and then there’s 3 that has nothing to do with Michael Myers…. We went from LOST BOYS 1 to, let’s say just like a neutralized, keep it hot and fresh LOST BOYS 2, and [now we'll] hopefully go for the LOST BOYS 3 thing, which is gonna happen.”

The Lost Boys came out in 1987.  21 years later they did a direct-to-DVD sequel.  It’s about as fresh as a Bangles t-shirt.  Point being, can someone give this guy a GD job?  If Hasselhoff still gets to be famous, Corey Haim should get something. Read the rest of this entry »
