LAWeekly Instagram: Featuring the culture of LA since 1978 ✌️

The Armored League made its West Coast debut last The Armored League made its West Coast debut last Friday, Sept. 4. The sold-out, 800-capacity TAL 21 brought full-contact armored combat to the Ukrainian Cultural Center, with fighters wielding blunted swords, axes and polearms alongside shields, punches, kicks, elbows, knees and headbutts. The fighting isn’t scripted, and the clanks are piercing.  The night ended with an all-LA final between Nathaniel Gaston and Ronin Sato, both members of local club LA Golden Knights. Gaston took the win, earning an Armored League title and cash prize.  Founded in New York City in 2024 by Anthony Rafes, Damion DiGrazia, Pedro Navarro and Scott Litts, The Armored League has grown from small local tournaments to events featuring international fighters from across the globe.  Following the sold-out LA debut, the League is making plans to come back even bigger.  @thearmoredleague

If you think Halloween is still over a month away, If you think Halloween is still over a month away, think again. Spooky season has already begun as far as LA is concerned as major theme parks around Southern California have already kicked off their annual Halloween events.  From luminous pumpkin patches and family-friendly trick-or-treat bashes to actual haunted ships and thrill-ride theme parks filled with diabolical mazes and heart-stopping live-actions shows, here are the hair-raising local Halloween events we’re most looking forward to.  @knottsscaryfarm

Trash cans, explosions, confetti, dancing, a 25-mi Trash cans, explosions, confetti, dancing, a 25-minute side quest, someone getting killed. Somehow, this is ”Stamptown.”  Zach Zucker and Co's clown variety show started in the basement of a gay bar in Edinburgh, where the guys flyered in suits and performed for zero to three people a day. Ten years later, it’s on Netflix.  The special, taped at the Montalbán during Netflix Is a Joke Fest, crams hours of comedy into 59 minutes — hilarious, daring, horny, and at times both profound and deviant levels of stupid.  Onstage, ”Stamptown” can resemble total anarchy. Behind the curtain, its operation is more like a football game, built around performers taking real risks every single night.  Chad Damiani calls it “the standard.” Courtney Pauroso calls it “the clown phenomenon that it is today.” And Zach? “This is all of our win.”  @stamptown

When Samy Burch joined the filmmaking team behind When Samy Burch joined the filmmaking team behind “Coyote vs. Acme,“ she didn’t expect her art to imitate life. The screenwriter, previously known for her Oscar-nominated script “May December,“ was thrilled by the challenge of crafting a movie for kids.  Then Warner Bros. announced it would shelve the fully finished live action/animated hybrid as a $30 million tax write-off.  What followed was an overwhelming outpouring of support from Looney Tunes fans, cinephiles, filmmakers and creators. After months of pressure, Warner Bros. agreed to let the filmmakers shop the project around, and Ketchup Entertainment acquired the rights for $50 million, giving the film a proper theatrical release.  Now “Coyote vs. Acme“ has finally been unleashed for audiences, earning a nearly perfect Rotten Tomatoes score and a $15 million domestic opening weekend — the biggest debut for the independent distributor.  For Burch, the journey became a real-life lesson in value of failing and persistence, just like Mr. Coyote.  @coyoteacmemovie
