Is this accurate or is it a misprint?

I tend to always like Indiana Jones knock offs, and I've recently become a legitimate fan of Chuck Norris. I know the writing is clunky and most of the jokes don't work and the budget is way too low. I really couldn't care less. I love the relationship between Chuck and Lou, and Melody couldn't be more charming. It's tons of fun for me. I smile through the whole thing.Daniel Eplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01866855763520017556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-78046980519226581772015-04-19T00:55:54.314-05:002015-04-19T00:55:54.314-05:00True story: while on vacation as an 8 year old, my...True story: while on vacation as an 8 year old, my younger brother and I convinced our parents to take us to a single screen theater in Monterey, Ca. to see Firewalker. We were pretty amped to see some Chuck Norris action even though I can't think of why I would have been aware of him other than TV spots for Firewalker. The lights in the theater finally went down ten minutes late and the movie started only to immediately stop when the film came undone. This happened a couple more times leaving the screen blank white. My dad said "I'll be right back" and walked up the aisle. After a few moments and a brief commotion in the projection booth the movie started up successfully. My Dad walked back into the theater to applause from the six or so other people in the audience. It was only then that I realized my pops had just schooled a couple stoned teenagers on how to thread up a projector. My brother and I have relished the memory ever since, even though it resulted in a viewing of Firewalker.

My favorite is when Conway is on the ladder in the pantry and finds the peaches and starts eating them while proceeding to squirt peach juice out of mouth on Knots. The facial reactions are priceless. And when he throws the messenger pigeon through the window?! Oh shucks, might be time to watch again! <br /><br />Interesting note - when I fist saw this film, I walked over to my friends house from elementary school and he's like "lets watch a movie". So he proceeds to pull out this record shaped thing and put in Private Eyes. I was like WHAT is that?! Needless to say, it was the first generation laserdisc.
