Rambo Kill Count Revealed!


This week, back in 1985, People Magazine had a story that attempted to count how many people Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) killed in the movie "Rambo: First Blood Part II", which came out a month earlier in May 1985. For those of you who don't know, there are a total of four Rambo movies:

"First Blood" (1982)
"Rambo: First Blood Part II" (1985)
"Rambo III" (1988)
"Rambo" (2008)

People Magazine say that 44 people were killed by Rambo (including 70 explosions that killed an undetermined number of people). That equals one person dying every 2.1 minutes in the second Rambo movie!!!

We are having problems finding this story on the web, but we did find a video that shows ALL of Rambo's kills from ALL four Rambo movies*.


*Note: For some reason, embedding is disabled so you will have to do with the video above that shows all of his kills from Rambo's 1-3. If you want to see Rambo 4 included in the death count, please watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sFDUcIttos

The MOVE Bombing in Philadelphia on May 13, 1985


26 years ago today, the Philadelphia Police Department dropped a bomb on a house in West Philadelphia, killing most of the occupants inside. Living in the house were members of the MOVE Organization, a Philadelphia-based black liberation group. In the end, 11 people were killed (including 6 children) and 65 houses were destroyed. This video above pretty much sums it all up. So sad....

You can taste the fun of make-believe with Chef Boyardee (Pac-Man & Zooroni Pasta)


Here is a Chef Boyardee pasta commercial that is from 1985. There are two kinds: Pac-Man (Pac-Man shapes) and Zooroni (zoo animal shapes). If you're in an Atari mood, then eat Pac-Man shapes. If you're in a zoo mood, then eat zoo animal shapes!! Sorry, but we don't have the very end of this commercial, but at least it's something. Long Live Pac-Man!!!
