I just watched Road House for the first time about a month ago. It was pretty good. Could have used more boobs though.

“The yellow variety”?

Wasn’t there a throat that got ripped out in _Road House_? If ripping throats out was over the top even in _Rambo_ I can’t imagine how it wouldn’t be ridiculous in a Patrick Swayze movie.

It was all dramatic. You have to see it to understand. Also, he was fighting was a homosexual martial arts expert, and one of the best lines in the movie (as indicated by the OP) was his threat to Swayze:

“I fucked guys like you in prison.”

My sentiments precisely, although he’s a little grungier than I usually prefer 'im. He’s most droolworthy when playing a cowboy, IMO.

Ergo, Road House wins. So many of Patrick Swayze’s movies are on my list of movies I can’t skip past if I run across them on TV. I’m such a child of the 80s.

I don’t know that Jimmy was precisely full-on gay; lots of straight-identifying people will commit homosexual acts in prison, but never do so on the outside.
