Thanks to everyone for watching our interview with "Girl Greaser," Lucinda Dickey on "Grease 2." I've gotten several messages from people that didn't even know she was in the film, which is exactly why we wanted to bring more awareness to it. She's literally in about 75% of the movie. She deserves more recognition. I think many people are unaware of her because she looks different from "Breakin." Plus, the cropped "pan and scan" version of the film many people grew up with on TV and VHS cut her out of many scenes as you can see from several of these widescreen images. You'll see her everywhere now after you realize she's in the movie. We appreciate everyone taking the time to check this out, and here's the link again if you missed it the first time. Thank you all!! 🙏💕

Sad to hear about the passing of Tony Todd. 20 years ago, I was lucky enough to meet him when I was a local journalist covering Con Comic in San Diego. He was so kind and generous with his time. You could tell he was a genuinely warm person; the exact opposite of his scary onscreen characters. Dustin Niño took this picture of me and my wife, in addition to some great video footage that day... I hope we can find that video. I'm six feet, so it gives you an idea of how large he is. My hand was like a child's hand compared to his when I shook it. Dustin was filming Tony Todd and asked him to say his iconic line from "The Rock." He pointed directly into the camcorder and said angrily, "I don't like soft ass s**t!!" Right after we got the footage, he smiled and said, "You know, I do like soft stuff. I like jazz, Mozart, a lot of soft stuff." We all burst into hysterical laughter! It was a great little moment. Farewell to another legend. Thanks for all the great cinematic moments. RIP 🙏

Tom Stern Nov. 24, 1932 - March 18, 2024 Farewell to our friend, Tom. He passed away peacefully yesterday at the age of 91. His wife, Nancy, really needs help paying for hospice and medical expenses. I know times are tough, but if you can spare anything, it would greatly help her. If a few of you just sent $1 it could make a big difference in her life. Please send donations directly on Venmo @Nancy-Fisher-17 (More info from his family in the comments) I’ve known Tom since I was 11 years old. He was truly one of a kind. It’s so hard to believe he’s actually gone. Tom was many things to many people. He was a surfer, a baseball player, an actor, and a filmmaker, but I will always think of him as a good friend. He always believed in me when no one else did, even if I didn’t believe in myself. Our podcast wouldn’t even exist without Tom. In 2005, I approached him about making a documentary, but he shot me down. I approached him again about doing a podcast on his life during the Covid-19 pandemic, and since he was bored and trapped at home, he finally gave in to the idea. I’m so thankful and proud to have captured all that footage of Tom talking about his life and career in Hollywood. We’ll do all we can to keep his legacy alive for fans and future film enthusiasts that discover his work. After we finished our last project with Tom, he gave me a courtesy call to thank me. During that conversation he told me he loved me, which was something he’d never said before. I told him I loved him too and thanked him for all the time he’d spent with me over the years. That was the last time we spoke. I regret not seeing him or speaking with him again, but at least I have that moment to carry with me. I’ll miss you, my friend. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten. Thank you for everything. 🙏💕 Please learn about Tom's life and legacy in his own words here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLskORibhWGfEIVFRKRBVkHfJ7rYdRZNEX

Jesse and Steve were both friends and colleagues going back to "Total Recall." Steven also worked many times for Jesse's uncle, stunt coordinator, Vic Armstrong. Jesse V. Johnson is on production overseas and sent this message about Steven Lambert. "I liked Steve and had worked with him a few times over the years, "Galaxy Quest," most notably. He was always, always incredibly respectful and lovely. It is very sad when the good ones pass." - Writer/Director - Jesse V. Johnson #action #martialarts #film
