Pumping Iron

Jeg har lenge sirklet rundt dokumentar filmen Pumping Iron, men denne har lenge vært vansklig å få tak i, og absurd dyr. Men nå, på den lykkens dag 25 mai (skjebnen ville det slik at dette også er lønningsdagen min) slippes Pumping Iron: Special Edition! For de som ikke vet det, så er dette en dokumentar om kappløpet mellom T-800 Series Model 101 og Lou Ferringo,(konverter ordentilg føkkings bilde, KONVERTER!) (crap...)nå mest kjent som naboen til han i kongen av Queens, men bør huskes som pre-CGI Hulken. Forøvrig så er dette også filmen hvor guvernøren i California uttaler:


"The greatest feeling you can get in a gym, or the most satisfying feeling you can get in the gym is... The Pump. Let's say you train your biceps. Blood is rushing into your muscles and that's what we call The Pump. You muscles get a really tight feeling, like your skin is going to explode any minute, and it's really tight - it's like somebody blowing air into it, into your muscle. It just blows up, and it feels really different. It feels fantastic.
It's as satisfying to me as, uh, coming is, you know? As, ah, having sex with a woman and coming. And so can you believe how much I am in heaven? I am like, uh, getting the feeling of coming in a gym, I'm getting the feeling of coming at home, I'm getting the feeling of coming backstage when I pump up, when I pose in front of 5,000 people, I get the same feeling, so I am coming day and night. I mean, it's terrific. Right? So you know, I am in heaven."


Well said, Mr Guvernor.
