Content

From immigration anxieties to "enhanced interrogation" to globalism to elite sex trafficking, TAKEN (2008) is a virtual dictionary of right-wing grievances - including some that weren't even popular yet. We discuss the most entertaining reactionary action movie of its time. PLUS: Mark Carney, Mahmoud Khalil, Mel Gibson, and of course, Donald Trump.

See Will present VEERANA at the Fox Theatre on April 8 at 9pm - https://www.foxtheatre.ca/movies/important-cinema-club-masterpiece-classics-veerana/

Khalil was no angel, y’all! The man in the NYT said so.

Listen, I ain't no superdelegate, so I can't be Rankin movies I'd like to hear you discuss, but film really is a language that one might call universal, isn't it? Keep it riel, guys!

my father took me to see this movie when i was 11, and i thought it was incredibly badass. his first words out of the theatre: “i shouldn’t have taken you to see this”. he was probably right lol

he could be a literal spawn of satan and it would still be the grossest infringement of free speech rights in several decades

but when he says “I don’t have any money but what I do-“ BITCH U GOT MONEY

I forgot that Holly Valance was in this. She tried to be Kylie Minogue then briefly tried her hand as a movie star, and so when that fails? What else could she be now but join the right wing grift train. https://youtu.be/cVnRdQ4UJbI?si=sryLm_ISxSU-aadi

I have a particular set of skills - ever heard of a little thing called Letterboxd?

Myles Bartoli

I’m sure Justin Trudeau still could have had a successful political career with a different surname, say, Castro, perhaps?

Tyler Sutherland

Mel Gibson is a vampire from the 19th century; he is currently having a meltdown from decades of drinking bad human blood with heavy metal and lead poisoning. 😔

Brad MacDonald

It’s hilarious in the second movie that there’s absolutely no reference to her being a singer whatsoever. Never mentioned again.

Oliver Elliott

Happy to see Trump vindicate my position that these people are basically just Maoists with a different ideological veneer.

James Washburn

Here’s a hack for a Liam Neeson voice. Try a Sam Eliot voice, and then add an Irish accent to it.

How many people who love Taken also love Andrew Tate?

Don’t tell Albanians they’re Slavic to their face haha. It won’t end well.

Been a while since I listened, politics been keeping me down, but it's always such a breath of fresh air to hear y'all's commentary Out of interest, particularly from Will, how would you rate the actual action in Taken? I know the series as a whole has a bad reputation from action heads, but don't remember much from the first movie

Like trying to pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time. I can't do it!

I'm not super familiar with contemporary vampire stories but if "vampire alive for centuries suddenly faces reality after mainlining lead and microplastic filled blood" exists somewhere, then I would *love* to experience it. This is gold.

I’m a rare member of my age group who didn’t see Taken, but have you guys ever spent time talking about “24”? You’ve got 2000s GWoT action-kitsch, some male rescue-fantasy elements, and a certain Canadian connection… I remember getting really into the first season or so back when it premiered, but I’m sure it hasn’t aged well, and you could say it’s left a legacy…

Don’t worry about that. It’s the inability to accurately pull off either that helps the sound!

i watched this with our couch surfing host in morocco  and his tv saturation balance was maxed out
