2 Fast 2 Forever #174 – Gung Ho (1986)
Brian “Slumber Party” Rodriguez is back on the podcast to sneak in another movie, this one starring “The Pride of Pittsburgh,” Michael Keaton: Gung Ho! Before Brian joins, though… Joe re-arranges his living room, Johnson teams up with Hopkins for some action movie hijinks in Young Rock, and (the other) Brian arrives to the race in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute. Then, we’re off to Japan (and back again) to talk about all things Gung Ho. Could Michael Keaton save a town that’s definitely not Pittsburgh? How much does Gedde Watanabe’s acting choices defy time and his age? Should you bathe in the Allegheny? Get these answers, or don’t! We may not have actually answered these questions. (Movie conversation begins around 41:45.)
