It seems so un-Bruce Campbell to have children, this is throwing my life into disarray

TIL that he has kids and I'm not sure how to process that information. I'm kind of glad that I never knew about them, despite being a fan since the early 90s. It means he was able to keep the spotlight off of them.

I know exactly enough to love him. He’s funny and he stays out of the news. Don’t care about his family, his vacations, what alcohol he drinks, none of it. He acts well in a genre I like and that’s always been enough for both of us.

I'd actually give his two memoirs a read. It gets a little into his personal life but I learned so much about his productions. You also get to know exactly how close he is with Sam Raimi and Ted Raimi. The first goes up to the late 90s when they produced Hercules and Xena while the second picks up around the time Spider-Man started production. For memoirs, they're very entertaining without him being full of himself.

Bruce Campbell by Psychostick is an awesome song! Strongly recommend it to any BC fans.

He’s had a lengthy career, but Bruce Campbell is the guy I would have loved to see get A List status.

Something I've always loved thinking about in the Burn Notice universe is the absolutely batshit insane results that would come up if you ever googled the name Chuck Finley (yes I know there's a baseball player with that name). Like at any point one of those idiot criminals could just google the name and realize this person who just approached them is going to ruin their whole life... Damn I miss that show!

They cover different ground. The first was published in 1999 and covers his childhood through the ups and downs of getting into the movie business and ends at the time it was published with him having a successful career. The second came out a few years ago and picks up where the first one left off, going over things like his career stalling in the early 2000s and then picking back up with stuff like Burn Notice, the Evil Dead remake, Ash vs Evil Dead, and more.

Yeah, I vaguely remember him trying to talk down a terrorist or something and the magazine is there so he introduces himself as such. I just wish that they had made reference at least once in the later seasons that Chuck Finley has a reputation, good or bad, just so Fi or Jesse could give him shit for using the same fake identity all the time. Hopefully they do a movie some day that addresses that.

Haha in the late 90s my friend group watched these films on Halloween for a few years and one year the biggest BC fan wrote to him and invited him to the party - he wrote back and politely declined :)

For sure. He can be snarky sometimes, but it always comes across as tongue in cheek whenever he is. He seems like a dude who's genuinely proud of the legacy he's made for himself and is grateful to the fans that made that legacy possible.

I just looked it up on Amazon music and there's over a dozen more songs that use his name in the title. Then, there's the artist known as Bruce Campbell who may, or may not be, the man himself. I've never been so pleasantly confused in my life. Thanks for that strange rabbit hole.

I'll have to take a look, the version I have on my phone is from spotify. Psychostick is a great band! "I can only count to four"(let the bodies hit the floor) is awesome and hilarious.

I remember cracking open a fresh comic book and seeing the ad for this with the tagline "Trapped in time. Surrounded by Evil. Low on Gas". I was a huge fan of the Evil Deads, so I knew exactly what this was
