"Like giving dynamite to a Grendel" - How did I know that was the exact line you'd pick for the capsule title as soon as I heard Hunter utter it? Awesome stuff as always, Mike.

I'm assuming Slap Chop was a Karate Kid reference? Was never really a fan of those movies, sorry.

I think he's just an excuse to make a guy named 'Slap Chop' https://slapchop.com/

Ah. Good call. Ever get the feeling that most of these pitch men are wired up on something a la Billy Mays (allegedly)?

But he looks a lot like Marvel's Iron Fist

With a bit of Gung-Ho from G.I. Joe mixed in.

Pretty sure it was Slap Shot, a reference to the movie of the same name. I think the subtitles said "Slapshot"...will have to go back and double check.

Colors on the uniform are the same as the hockey uniforms (blue, white, yellow) and beb is right, he is dressed like Iron Fist.

I checked the subtitles and they say Slap Chop, so take that for what it is. I listened to Shore Leave's line several times and it's hard to tell. If he had a hockey stick and looked like one of the Hanson brothers I'd say you were probably right, but I don't feel that is a the case. Another question to ask for anyone attending the panel this Friday.
