You can't really dust for vomit.

Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal.

Because Top Gun is awesome.

I want some of that purple stuff!

Yes there's connections (NOI -> 5% Movement -> Wu Tang, Jay Eletronica, Rakim) but it's not the same rappers that espouse lean/drank (Southern/Houston/Louisiana)

Something something non-precise stormtroopers.

KTLA5! I thought every weekend was a rotation of the Warriors, Escape from New York, Fort Apache: The Bronx, The Gauntlet and They Live!

Say what you want about the tenets of the old Disqus system, at least its an ethos.

Has he refused to acknowledge this? That seems rather assholish - especially for someone as idebted to HK cinema as he is - I mean half of his visual style/ethos comes from Woo/Lam/Tsui heroic bloodshed movies.

Resevoir Dogs then.

I think it's difficult without understanding Cantonese - because so many of his movies are more comedy with action scenes instead of straight action. Project A.

"I don't want any trouble!"

It didn't even have Chong Li.

And the Magnificent Seven (first one)

Has anyone gone back and watched Mission Impossible lately? The computer stuff with the message boards and the email address "job@job316.com" - it's all super laughable and obviously written by someone who had heard that there were such things as message boards and email, but obviously knew nothing about them.

Valley Girl

I have unbelievable love for Tommy Boy. Oddly, Black Sheep is basically the same exact movie and it is terrible.

I . .. . can't argue this. The surfing. The basketball game. The LA Coliseum. It's all really dumb, and I'm saying this with Big Trouble in Little China in my top ten favorite movies of all time.

I had a different opinion - I think snails without the garlic/butter are just kind of rubbery bland things. Not something I'd like to eat, but not really horrifying either.

Well he did have a Chinese half brother.
