Armand Assante

I think-

I've seen the miniseries with Armand Assante, but I didn't see-

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, me too.

Mm.

Do you wanna show any of the film? Like, how do you think it pairs with teaching The Odyssey?

I mean, I would probably show clips from this film, clips from the Armand Assante, clips from the 1950s one.

Um, I would, personally, I would probably bring in, you know, a bunch of different takes on it.

We did a Western when I fell backwards over the rail.

The Blind Gunfighter with Armand Asante.

Oh, yeah.

Western.

Did you guys – well, I didn't

see – actually, I thought I saw Armand Asante.

And then on the train in the beginning – I mean, I didn't think it was him.

I just thought that guy looks familiar.

And then in the trivia, it's like a young Armand Asante was on the train.

I missed that.

I didn't see him.

You watch it on YouTube.

yung kay Armand Asante yeah I

watched

it yeah that was cool it's a different very ano lang very literal yeah yung parang what you would read in the in the original story

And then when I was watching it, sabi ko, oh, okay, this is actually not bad.

Diba, not bad.

Nakakatawa lang kasi Armand Asante, isa siya,

alumanong, alumanong

but this time, as James may have hinted there, we are going to be talking about Judge Dredd, which is an, uh, a series from 2000 AD comics, and we'll, maybe we'll talk a little bit more about that.

So we'll talk about the comics just a little bit, and then we will also talk about the 1995 movie with Sylvester Stallone and Diane Lane and Jurgen Prochnow and Armand Assante and surprise Joan Chen.

[laughs] Yes.

Um, and then we'll talk about the 2012 movie with Karl Urban and Olivia Philby? Thurby.

The big robot looked great.

Yeah.

Um, 'cause it was practical, you know? And, um, uh, Arm- Armand Assante, uh, to me is pretty special in this movie.

[laughs]

...

Ar- Armand Assante.

Oh, shit.

Wait, who's he?

...

Tom, or yeah, J- Tom Berenger.

But he has such a fun name to say that I feel like he was, like, part of pop culture in the '90s because everyone wanted an excuse to say Armand Assante.

[laughs]

[laughs]

Armand Assante.

[laughs] Oh, Armand Assante.

All right.

Yeah.

He's so good.

I'd never in a million years if you had said to me, "My man," I never would've picked Armand Assante.

[laughs]
