'Shindig'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Action films are an extension of Greek myths which have been around since Homer's The Iliad.
I think I'm in love. I do worry that McClain or Rambo might be the Odysseus or the Robin Hood of our times, but still. I do agree with the core of this. It isn't specifically Greek--just myths.
Lord help me, I think I love him a little for his *mind*.
Um. Yeah, I kind of do now, too. This is... interesting.
Ple - he has a mind worth loving! And omigod has it got a pretty package around it.
I just checked out his website, which he maintains himself, and was reading about his involvement in karate, which is pretty extensive. Whenever that info was put up he'd just bought his daughter (listed at 8 yrs old) her first uniform. And he and his wife are involved in karate in Spain.
But his next movie sounds kinda lame, but omigod just up my alley -- modern day Western with bikes instead of horses.
Did any of you see the USA movie he did that was directed by John Woo? The only thing I can remember is that he had something wrong with his eyesight and would get blind around too much white so the bad guy lured him into a dairy and spilled milk every where and then they fought.
I can't help but watch Bloodsport and Lionheart when they're on the TV. The power of the cheese compels me.
I just went to add his movies to my Netflix queue but it's full! This sucks.
Hah, I loved Dolph. I had a picture of him in my locker. Green, because it was cut from a section of the paper they printed on green newsprint.
KU-MI-TE!!!
Hmm...another license plate option.
Right there with you, Plei and Juliana.
I think the best way for me to recuperate next week is to watch some Dolph Lundgren movies, and other movies with hot shirtless men.
Make sure you watch ::goes to IMDB because she always mixes this up with the Kurt Russell movie:: Showdown In Little Tokyo. Also, Rapid Fire.
IMDB lists Brandon Lee as appearing in a 2000 movie. That's just weird.
Showdown in Little Tokyo! Oh that's a good one! And it's got the scene where the suspect breaks his own neck in the interview room.
Can't remember if I've seen Rapid Fire, but I think I have.
