Recording a podcast on the Rambo series next Monday.
Post your favorite things about it, scenes, trivia, your favorite memories watching with friends and family. I've actually never seen it before and we're going to do a deep dive marathon on as many as we can before the stream of consciousness goes elsewhere🤷🏽
I actually got this memory, but from another Rambo, who got inspired by the original one, ofc. lemme look for it.
Please do!
Real Rambo? Like that Bo Gritz guy when I was a kid that talked Weaver out of his cabin at Ruby Ridge?
not that sweet, no haha there was this guy in 90’s who first became the boss of illegal mining on amazon. how did he get to be the boss and called rambo? he got this helicopter, two machine guns (one in each hand) and shot his opponents down on the ground. later on, he got envolved with narcos and ended up dead. Rambo do Pará. this was the best video I could find. I’m writing about him (about the whole story of serra pelada and narcos in amazon, tbh, from 60’s to 90’s), let’s see if I can finish it this year.
Whaaaat I'm watching this right now.
unfortunately, there are only two pictures of him. but there’s a panoramic of the city, so you can easily imagine him with a bandana shooting the hell outta the helicopter. the only reason I won’t open the novel with this scene is due to this other episode when the airplane of 90’s narco bosses (they inside with 1ton of cocaine) fell in the middle of the forest ‘cause… it ran outta gas. now, the weirdest part: three families on the top of the scheme. I ended up marrying the heiresses of both (one of them from two families). ofc, I had no damn clue about it. found out in 2013 and my life has become a living hell since then.
