BMFcast211 – Gunn in a B.A.G.
Black Gunn (1972) is how we kick off the third annual Blaxploitation History Month. It’s truly the most wonderful time of the year and so we start where our hearts tells us, with Jim Brown.
Second half we quickly run through some movies including Rewind This (2013) and get right to listener correspondence. Enjoy!

RIP Blockbuster 1985-2014
I’m actually a little sad today. We now basically live in a world without walk in movie rentals. Not walk up. Not push button. Walk in and browse. Take your time, look for what you want, and possibly ask for suggestions, video rental. I’m not lamenting the passing of Blockbuster per se but, in a certain sense, I am. To the victor go the spoils and they were the last holdout of the video store model. They were the ones who ran it into the ground and continued jacking up the prices of fees whilst media prices dropped but it still ends with them.
BMFcast92 – Dave
Caution: Contents contained are not properly represented by this poster or synopsis.
G.I. Executioner (1971, 1975, 1984?) is a movie with a misleading title, poster and synopsis. Dave’s just a guy trying to keep The Man from getting his hands on his junk. Honestly we could write anything here and it would probably sum up the movie better than every description we’ve read.
Second half we take some voicemail, Twitter questions and talk about random movies. Standard tomfoolery abounds. Enjoy!
