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

I always assumed he had either zero kids or ten thousand kids, no in-between

Didn't his son release a game last year? Did quick google. Yes it's called evil dead: the game. You can see yt vids of him and his son playing it lol

I had to look at his wiki and found this "Campbell is also ordained and has performed marriage ceremonies."

I now need to find someone to marry and get married by Bruce Campbell as Elvis. Bubba Ho-tep 2.

His kids must be 1068 years old at this point.

From looking at the picture, I'm older than his kids and I'm just in my 40's. 😆

Dude this is a picture from 1300 AD. That's like at least seventy years ago

Idk, he always struck me as a super wholesome person irl. Obviously, I have no idea if that’s true, but that was the vibe I got. Him having kids seems totally on brand in that case.

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.

How can the ladies resist such famous lines like 'Give me some sugar, baby' or 'Hail to the king, baby'

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!

BrooklynSwimmer t1_jdeh1r7 wrote

In case someone else missed this: The show acknowledges in the season 5 special movie flashback, he picks up a magazine with Finely on the cover.

ViralParallel t1_jdehtu1 wrote

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.

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.

passwordsarehard_3 t1_jdcqr2k wrote

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.

monty_kurns t1_jdczndq wrote

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.

GrimlockHolmes t1_jddtfdc wrote

Learning how they built their camera “dolly” was a lesson in budget filmmaking.

KneeDeepInTheDead t1_jddy90q wrote

Do they both cover the same ground or is one memoir more about a certain thing than the other?

2

monty_kurns t1_jddyrih wrote

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.

Ahh thank you for the breakdown! Ill probably pick up the first one first then. Thanks!

I don’t know, maybe he was just famous enough to work fairly steadily doing what he loves, but mostly only deal with fans at conventions, while having a decent family life.

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

Brewbouy t1_jdeulxr wrote

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.

GingerBeast81 t1_jdewoqi wrote

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.
