[00:00:00]Should we go ahead and go into that a little bit? I mean, it's hard to talk about American War with London and John Landis and not talk about him murdering three people.

[00:00:07]>> Well, yeah. When we talk about, you know, Twilight Zone and, you know, Vic Marorrow and >> Yeah. Okay. So, in 1983, the Twilight Zone movie was released, one of the uh parts of the movie is directed by John Landis. Part that stars a fellow named Vic Marorrow, whose daughter is Jennifer Jason Lee. There's a scene in his section of the movie where Vic Marorrow is playing a guy who gets teleported back to the Vietnam War and he's trying to rescue these two Vietnamese kids out of a lagoon and he's carrying them through the lagoon like this, like in his arms. As this is happening, a helicopter is supposed to sweep down and shoot at him. So, John Landis didn't like how it was done and thought the helicopter needed to be closer and kept telling the stunt pilot, "Got to be closer, got to be closer, >> closer, closer, closer." Uh, next take, helicopter goes a little lower and it ends up being a little too low and the blades cut the head off of Vic Marorrow.

[00:00:58]The helicopter crashes, kills all three of them and John Landis gets in zero trouble for that completely walk away Scott all kind. Yeah.

[00:01:09]>> And you know, if you want to take a deeper dive, anybody listening, just go ahead and Google John Landis's uh head son, Max Landis.

[00:01:18]>> Oh, yeah. because he might even I mean he didn't he hasn't murdered anyone.

[00:01:22]>> No, never murdered anyone.

[00:01:23]>> A real piece of also.

[00:01:26]>> Yeah, the apple doesn't fall far from theole tree.
