Yes, you read that right. This is an Italian spy film from the 1960s, with some fun twists only an Italian 12 year old boy would think of. Such as a belt buckle that detects beautiful women. There are rare and exotic cars (and motor scooters) featured throughout the film which also makes this a fun viewing.
Note: Turn on captions! This movie is not officially subtitled, but it has English captions.
Does it even matter what this movie is about? Sure. Here’s a quick plot summary:
Lady Lister has gathered five of the most renowned nuclear scientists in the world and stashed them in her secret, underground Brazilian lair. She has developed a means of converting coal into diamonds using a controlled nuclear explosion.
OK, now on with the dick jokes. How can I not make jokes?
It’s out of my system now. Shpip and others can take over from here.
So watch! Or don’t! Everything is voluntary! Next week, I start Audience Appreciation Thursdays with some selections off the suggestion list! We will start with Hundreds of Beavers! I will have the full schedule posted next week. I have been extra whipped, trying to sell my house, dealing with a sharp uptake in work and having lots of social events. So my apologies for the brevity of reviews in the coming month.
Help! I Hate Movies!
I don’t really spray people with a hose anymore, so just talk about whatever you want. It’s Thursday! There are no rules! Just a secret movie short! BY SECRET MEAN…
I was hoping to join, but I’m still working. I’ll queue this up for later viewing. Thanks RJ!
Yeah, me too.
Stupid work.
“Note: Turn on captions! This movie is not officially subtitled, but it has English captions.”
No Spanish though. Italian with English subs is kind of annoying.
“Do these glasses make my dick look smart?”
“That’s the second worse joke I’ve ever heard.”
It was the better option for that picture.
Here is some info on at least one of the mock ups of the Vespa Alpha done for this film. The scooter body kit actually became a thing in the kit car industry for a short period of time after this:

The helicopter version looks downright terrifying. Don’t lean back!
More like, don’t even think of climbing onto that thing. 😱
LGBT telephones?
Oh, that’s Lower Great Basin Telepone.
Well played.
They’re not going to stop with that tape echo effect are they?
No
Also, I swear that theme song has been used in another Italian spy film we have seen. It is very familiar.
I think that “Caribbean” spy music sound started with Dr. No and a bunch spy movies copied it.
Well Tater, looks like it’s just you and me. Is there a game on or something?

On fucking Amazon. I liked back when the only night game was on Monday, and the whole country could watch for free.
I was hoping to find a Hitler Rants about football but the creator is clearly a European soccer fan.
There was however, an episode wishing happy birthday to the Pittsburgh Pirates hat:

Oh, football?
I have Sabres. :shrug:
I don’t have fucking Amazon, but I do have ESPN+ 🙂
You have to be over 18 to get Fucking Amazon.
I had one of those hats, and gave it away to somebody.
“You have to be over 18 to get Fucking Amazon.”
That’s just un-American.
I just got here after cleaning up dinner dishes and prepping for trash night. I’m trading texts with a couple of my old high school girlfriends, and I need a good “Dad riddle” to counter one my old bestie posted, ideally with a pirate theme. Can you help me?
I’ve heard of dad jokes, but I don’t know what a ““Dad riddle” is.
Where do you go to the bathroom on a ship with no toilet?
THE POOP DECK ARRR HAR HAR HAR HAR.
What be a pirate’s favorite movie?
The kind that be rated AAARRRRR
R.J. gets it! Thanks! 🏴☠️
I got done most of what I needed to for work.
Back to the grind tomorrow.
When the chips are down, you can always count on THICC Thursday After Dark.

So is this:
“Kamala Harris Campaign Gave $500,000 to Al Sharpton’s Group Before She Sat Down For An Interview With Him”

https://freebeacon.com/media/msnbc-president-has-close-ties-to-al-sharpton-nonprofit-that-took-500k-from-kamala-harris-campaign/
Chump change. The pop-star bribes were more than that.
I don’t know how much she paid for celebrity endorsements, but they weren’t pretending to do news.
Food Wishes recipes suck and Chef John’s voice is more grating than Kamala.
Am working, sorry. Cancer, anemia, and fungal toes ahoy!
