So I'm sitting here trying to recoup from the massive amount of beer I ingested at the Seahawks game yesterday. Just when I thought this evening was going to be another pseudo-jerk off fest consisting of frequent naps and chugging water, a great classic movie comes on the boob tube. Coffy was made in 1973 and stars the lovely Pam Grier. What happened to all those great 70's "exploitation" films? I remember being a young little white boy and staring at amazement as big Jim Brown whooped the snot out of drug dealers, pimps, thieves, and other no good hoodlums. Yeah they were a bit violent, but they took care of business and always protected their neighborhood so the average citizens could feel safe. They should start making more shows and movies that had the basic values that these classics had. I guess these days people would rather vote on who is America's best dance crew that sings while swapping their wives with the next top model.
