Big Trouble in Little China, brought to you by Puma.




Another John Carpenter/Kurt Russell team up. Some highlights:

-During the opening interview with Egg, I could already tell it was gonna be Bad Ass. Plus that opening music? Forget about it.

-Kim Catrall?! Oooooooo.

Doug: Pork-Chop Express!
Me: Team name! (for pub quiz)
Doug: No, your new nickname!
Me: ... (too shocked to respond)
Doug: Pork-Chop Express!

-Did I just see Isaac Hayes? Again?

Me: Ha! There's gangs in Chinatown? (continues laughter)
Doug: (all serious and shit) Yeah...
Me: Really?
Doug: Uh, yeah...
Me: Oh.

-DRINKING GAME! Every time someone says "girl with green eyes," take a drink.

Did Tam cry? Fuck, no!

Closing thoughts: This movie was insane. And so bad, it was Bad-Ass. Seriously, that script was hysterically shitty. But the martial arts? Weird creatures? Random flying and lightening powers? Cheesy acting? Kurt's mullet and sweet tank top to show off his guns? I had to give it 4 out of 5 stars. Some scenes were just too out there and trippy for me, hence no fifth star.

Next Week: Dirty Harry (because it was referenced at some point in this movie)
