They Live (movie)....

[Patriot]

I was watching AMC last night and they showed the 1988 movie, They Live. The one with Roddy Piper and the aliens controlling earth.
I forgot that it has one of the greatest one liners in the history of film.
Roddy - "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass... And I'm all out of bubble gum."
Followed by Roddy blowing the crap out of the aliens.
Hilarious!

I never heard of the movie, but is that the wrestler, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper?

is that the wrestler, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper?

Yep that's the guy. That film has one of the very best fight scenes in all of Hollywood's creations. Piper is known for them, but this one (when he's trying to get another guy to wear the d**n sunglasses) really takes the cake. Totally unrealistic (nobody can take that many direct hits), but its great for a laugh.

According to one of the many review sites for this film, the scene lasts 7.5 minutes (!) and they say that another 5 was cut. Sheesh.
