Yeah, I knew that. I don't think it's worth watching.

Bad Times at the El Royale was great. It was Drew Goddard un-hampered by Whedon's cancer
Maybe technically, but it was still sjw as fuck. Still, like Cabin in the Woods, fun enough to watch once.

Did you know there was a live action Fist Of The North Star? Yeah crazy, hell there's even a Japanese dubbed version with the original voice actors:

Downtown Julie Brown was in that, I believe. Was okay.

Live Action Fist of the North Star is probably one of the best example of why animus should stay animus. You lose a lot in translation if you can't have the crazy proportions and ludicrous ultra violence.

I liked the anime. (I've only read a little of the manga.)
It's a lot of fun as long as you don't take it seriously like it seems to want you to.

Showdown in Little Tokyo (1991)

Fuck yeah, this is one of the most rewatchable movie there is. Brandon Lee was a god-awful actor and this movie is his magnum opus (gotta say I don't remember anything from Rapid Fire or Laser Mission). Lee is a cop from ASIAN TASK FORCE ( :lol: ) who teams up with He-Man to defeat Yakuza boss Yoshida (who murdered Ivan Dragon's parents).

I love how all female characters in the movie are complete bimbos and Drago has to rescue the female lead not once but twice, once from herself (she tries to kill herself) and once from the bad guys. But the best part has to be the dialogue:

"Will you do this right? Clean. Like a cop in the 20th century and not some samurai warrior? We'll nail this guy. And when we're done, we'll go eat fish off those NAKED CHICKS!" :D It would've been perfect if he'd used the word "bitches" instead of "chicks", but excellent anyway.

(He-Man explains how the gun works to a woman, like she's some kind of retard)
"When the safety's off, point this at the target, pull the trigger and they'll fall down." :lol:
"What if it's you?"
"You won't see me coming." :lol: :lol: :lol:

"What the fuck do you want? We're closed."
"Wrong. You're open!"

And ofc the classic, Brandon admiring He-Man's johnson:

"In case we get killed, I wanted to tell you.. you have the biggest dick I've ever seen on a man."
"Thanks. I don't know what to say."
"How about, "Don't get killed"?"



Great, great movie. 100/10

Oh, bro, that looks fucking great! I'll need to watch that movie with the pal of mine that forced me to watch Hobo with a Shotgun to show him what an actual "so bad it's good" movie is.

Well, duh. He's one of the most lackadaisical overpraised directors of the modern era. Ever. He gets away with his shit because...

>He's Jewish.
>He has connections.
>He's an SJW.
>He can get away with blue balling his audience with endless mystery boxes, an absolute cancer on the mystery genre, all for the sake of building up hype.
>If someone criticizes him and he can't defend himself, he'll put the blame on someone else, like how he blamed the shitty Star Trek (2013) game for why Into Darkness had a lower opening than his shitty 2009 film or how "men feel threatened by woman" for why no one with a fully functional brain even liked TLJ, or how he blamed "intellectually inept people" for not getting Lost's ending. He's full of shit and, in typical shitlib fashion, cannot handle actual criticism.
>He'll rehash another project without putting any genuine substance into his work. As long as it has pretty visuals and artificial mystery hype, the audience will always continue to fall for it every single time.


Wait until the rape allegations or the #meagain movement gets him. Then, he'll be in deep shit.
