Jason, Paul, and Sean continue their John Carpenter journey with a sharp, funny double feature: the misfiring Memoirs of an Invisible Man and the beloved chaos of Big Trouble in Little China. They dig into Chevy Chase's awkward bid for dramatic credibility, the movie's impressive invisible effects, Sam Neill's scene-stealing presence, and Carpenter's flashes of style inside a frustratingly dull project. Then the energy flips as they celebrate Kurt Russell's gloriously foolish Jack Burton, Dennis Dun's true-hero status, and the joyful genre mashup that makes Big Trouble feel like a perfectly tuned cult-classic machine.5 key moments with timestamps00:00:08 — Episode setup: Carpenter double feature, Big Trouble in Little China and Memoirs of an Invisible Man.00:06:05 — The hosts decide to start with “the pain” of Memoirs before moving to the pleasure.00:18:17 — Praise for Memoirs' invisible effects and Sam Neill as the movie's strongest reasons to watch.00:37:45 — Transition into Big Trouble in Little China, emphasizing how it handles its heroes and Jack Burton's buffoonery.00:43:05 — The conversation fully shifts to “the good stuff” as the hosts begin celebrating Big Trouble in Little China.

Forty years ago this summer, genre master John Carpenter (The Thing, Halloween, They Live) directed this big budget (for the time) extravaganza blending various genres including martial arts, fantasy, and crime drama.  Starring Kurt Russell in one of his more iconic roles as truckdriver Jack Burton, it was fast, funny, and phrenetically entertaining!  And yet no one really saw it in theaters. :( Fortunately this film did eventually find its audience on cable and video, becoming a cult classic and is now often looked upon as one of Carpenter's most believed movies.  It also features a STELLAR cast beyond Russell including Dennis Dun, Kim Cattrall, James Hong, and Victor Wong.  So let's hop on the Pork Chop Express and head to Chinatown!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

The Blasters & Blades Podcast“Everybody relax, I'm here.” This week, we're hopping into the Pork-Chop Express and driving straight into the subterranean neon underworld of Chinatown. That's right… we are reviewing John Carpenter's absolute masterpiece of 80s cheese, Big Trouble in Little China! We're breaking down why Jack Burton is the greatest “action hero who is actually the sidekick” in cinematic history, the incredible practical effects, and how this wild mashup of kung fu, ancient sorcery, and American truck-driver swagger ever got greenlit. It's all in the reflexes!

How We Seeez It! Episode 344: Big Trouble in Little China (1986) “When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye, and asks if you've paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye and remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: ‘Have ya paid your dues, Jack?' ‘Yessir, the check is in the mail.'” — Jack Burton John Carpenter's urban fantasy action-adventure turns 40 this year. Starring Kurt Russell and set in San Francisco's Chinatown, Big Trouble in Little China was released in 1986 without the fanfare it deserved. It wasn't the hit it should have been, but it found a devoted audience during the home-video era and eventually became a cult classic. Not only is it incredibly rewatchable, but repeated viewings may be required to fully understand its greatness. Join us as we discuss the movie, its wonderfully strange world, and why Jack Burton may not be quite the hero he thinks he is. As always, mix a drink, have a listen, and let us know what you think.

“It's all in the reflexes.” Join Ian & Liam for our 338th episode as we descend into the neon-lit underworld beneath San Francisco's Chinatown for John Carpenter's gloriously bonkers cult classic Big Trouble in Little China (1986). Megs isn't with us this week — she accidentally accepted an invitation to Lo Pan's wedding and we're told she's currently trying to escape a floating wheelchair and several unfortunate centuries-old curses. Kev? He confidently followed Jack Burton into an alley "because it'll be quicker this way" and hasn't been seen since a glowing eyeball floated past. This week we discuss: Kurt Russell's Jack Burton — swaggering, endlessly quotable, and hilariously convinced he's the hero. Is Jack actually the greatest accidental sidekick in cinema history? Who did Kurt Russell actually base his performance of Jack Burton off of? Dennis Dun's Wang Chi — the film's true protagonist hiding in plain sight. How does Carpenter brilliantly disguise whose story this really is? What 1990s video game phenomenon was heavily inspired by this film? John Carpenter's genre mash-up — martial arts, fantasy, horror, comedy, and action. Why should this film never have worked... yet somehow works perfectly? Kim Cattrall's Gracie Law — fearless, funny, and game for absolutely anything the film throws at her. Ian breaks down the screenplay — how the film constantly subverts audience expectations by making its loudest character the least competent person in the room. Liam explores the film's mythology — ancient curses, Chinese folklore, and why the exposition somehow makes less sense the more attention you pay. Lo Pan — one of the most delightfully eccentric villains of the 1980s. Menacing, theatrical, and completely unforgettable. The action choreography — practical effects, flying warriors, and glorious 1980s excess. Does the film know exactly how ridiculous it is? The "show vs tell" balance — does the film overwhelm us with mythology, or does its sheer confidence carry us through the chaos? The ending — triumphant, absurd, and leaving just enough mystery for one final sting in the tail. And finally, whether Big Trouble in Little China is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the greatest cult movies ever made.

They examined the film's production, including its $100,000 Guardian creature puppet, visual effects by Richard Edlund and Steve Johnson, and the Fox backlot sets used for filming. The hosts discussed the film's characters, particularly James Hong's performance as Lopan, and analyzed key scenes including the supernatural battles and optical effects. They compared the film favorably to previous episodes' selections like "Rawhead Rex" and "Transmutations," concluding that "Big Trouble in Little China" was more entertaining and well-executed.

Was Big Trouble in Little China the greatest cult classic of the 80s, or just a misunderstood martial arts masterpiece? In 1986, John Carpenter and Kurt Russell teamed up to create a genre-bending adventure that defied every box Hollywood tried to put it in. Join Rob, Kurt and Dave as they dive into the wild world of Jack Burton, the Lo Pan sorcery, and the neon-soaked underground of San Francisco's Chinatown.

Wer wie ich die goldene VHS-Ära mitbekommen hat der kennt den Namen John Carpenter. Er ist nicht nur bekannt für Genrefilme wie Halloween, The Fog oder Das Ding aus einer anderen Welt, sondern auch für seine übergroßen Helden die allerlei markige Sprüche ablassen. Bei Nada, Snake Plissken oder Jack Burton angefangen, nie waren seine Helden um coole Sprüche verlegen. Und nachdem ich seit den 80ern JC-Fan bin, musste ich natürlich auch den Zombieshooter mit seinem Namen im Titel zocken. Und siehe da, das Spiel ist besser als man bei einem Genrenamen erwarten durfte. Die Missionen machen Spaß, die Action läuft flüssig ab, und auch hier bekommen wir Oneliner präsentiert die direkt einem 80er Film entsprungen sein könnten. Schade ist, dass die Story nur so dahinschwabbt, vor allem da die technischen Aspekte überzeugen können. Erwartet euch also nur nicht zu viel Tiefgang. Das wird natürlich nach dem Durchspielen auch nicht besser, vor allem wenn dann der endlose Grind beginnt, um in den schwierigeren Spielstufen bestehen zu können. Die KI-Buddies sind da nicht wirklich eine Hilfe, sondern oft auch hinderlich. Durch Crossplay findet man aber jede Menge Gleichgesinnte, um die Zombiehorden zu besiegen. Wer aber auf coole Shooter steht, wird als Mitglied des Toxic Commandos seine Freude haben.

We recorded this one a while back but figure what better time than now to check in on James' opinion on good ole' Jack Burton. Enjoy.

In 1982, John Carpenter released The Thing — a film about paranoia in isolation.But beneath the alien horror is a quieter question:Why does crisis always seem to produce the same kind of leader?From Snake Plissken to MacReady to Jack Burton, Carpenter's collaborations with Kurt Russell trace the erosion of the American hero myth.When the Berlin Wall fell, the external enemy collapsed. The crisis logic didn't.It moved inward.This episode explores suspicion, authority, neoliberal shock, and why marginalized spaces are often testing grounds for what eventually reaches the centre.Childs wasn't the threat.He was the warning.—Park Bench Ontology is a series examining culture, identity, and the systems that shape perception.

In this episode of The Broadband Bunch, host Pete Pizzutillo sits down with BSP co-founders David Strauss and Jack Burton to explain the role of technical due diligence in the broadband and digital infrastructure market. The BSP team shares how their firm helps investors, operators, and lenders cut through the noise to evaluate network assets, data centers, and M&A opportunities with confidence. Hear about the realities behind consolidation trends, open access networks, and the growing importance of infrastructure readiness—from wiring craftsmanship to software integration and future capacity planning. David and Jack also discuss what investors are really looking for, how operators can prepare for an eventual exit, and why sell-side diligence can accelerate deals while reducing risk.

Send a textA truck driver who can't stop asking questions, a friend who does the real fighting, and a sorcerer who waited 2,000 years for green eyes—there's a reason Big Trouble in Little China refuses to fade. We dive straight into why this cult classic still sparks debate: the self-aware camp, the electric synths, the rain-soaked neon, and the audacity of casting a swaggering, lovable bumbler as your poster hero.We break down Kurt Russell's Jack Burton as a brilliant misdirect—loud, lost, but weirdly brave—while Wang carries the narrative weight and the martial arts grace. That inversion lets John Carpenter poke holes in the American hero myth without losing the popcorn thrills. From practical monsters and the iconic knife throw to uneven but ambitious fight staging, we pull apart the craft that makes the movie sing. And yes, we talk about the moments that age poorly—forced flirtations, accented English used among Chinese characters—and how the satire lands alongside the stereotypes.Carpenter's fingerprints are everywhere: the synth-driven score that snaps scenes into focus, the pulpy color palette that turns Chinatown into a fever dream, and the long partnership with Russell that keeps risk-taking fun. We trace cultural ripples into 90s pop culture, Mortal Kombat parallels, and why this film bombed before becoming midnight-movie royalty. Two of us call it pure five-star joy; one of us gives it a thoughtful seven, intrigued enough to chase The Thing next. Whether you rewatch for the set design, the one-liners, or that thunder-lit ceiling shot, there's big charm in this little slice of cinematic chaos.Hit play, ride with the Pork Chop Express, and tell us: is Jack Burton a hero, a decoy, or the perfect mix of both?

It's the ultimate action movie showdown — JOHNS vs JACKS!

It's the ultimate action movie showdown — JOHNS vs JACKS!

The Halloweenies dust off another John Carpenter classic out of the pile: 1986's Big Trouble in Little China. Requested by oilung, the gang hops aboard the Pork Chop Express to discuss all things Jack Burton, the Lords of Death, the legacy of James Hong, crushing on Kim Cattrall, and the score that keeps on giving. Note: This episode was recorded in January 2024 and is being unlocked because we're, well, we just thought it'd be nice to hear.

Send us a textThis week on Entertain This!, Hayden, Mitch, and Tom boldly venture into the cinematic fever dream that is John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China. We're talking about a movie where the hero is arguably the sidekick, ancient Chinese magic involves lightning bolts and floating heads, and the true protagonist might just be Kurt Russell's unparalleled confidence in the face of utter bewilderment. Join us as we try to unpack how this glorious, nonsensical masterpiece manages to be simultaneously one of the greatest action-comedies ever made and a solid argument for why truck drivers should probably stick to driving trucks. We'll dissect Lo Pan's surprisingly convoluted evil plan and ponder whether Jack Burton ever actually understood what was going on. So, buckle up, grab your own questionable beverages, and prepare for a deep dive into the reflex-fueled chaos. At the end of it all, we'll ask you: Did Big Trouble in Little China...

Time to have some laughs with Sensei Randy as we review (spoiler alert) a Great movie from the 1980s. We'll move to the 90s for the next review, but today we talk about a cult classic. And how it didn't make money at the theater, but did later on.  Here's a weird factoid: when I was searching on line for a graphic, I came across action figures of Jack Burton and other characters. Also, Kim Cattrall is in this movie. Sorry Kim, that we didn't get to mentioning that in the episode.  Too much talk about the fighting! We do, however, reference Conan the Barbarian.

Welcome to a new sub-series of the podcast devoted to screenplays for movies that never got made. There are tons of famous screenplays from Oliver Stone's first draft of Conan to Del Toro's At the Mountains of Madness. For each episode in this series, we will read and review a script that never got made. In this episode, I am joined by author Anthony Trevino and Musician/Filmmaker Issa Diao to discuss The unproduced TV movie sequel to Big Trouble in Little China written by Innerspace screenwriter Charles “Chip” Proser. What did a Jack Burton-less direct-to-TV sequel to the 80s classic look like. At least it was focused on Egg Shen. Note: This episode had tons of technical difficulties, starting with Issa's video, which is why there is no video, then my microphone came unplugged and I never noticed. So sorry for the quality.

On today's program, Jon Hurst, president of the Retailers Association of Massachusetts uses the “R” word when describing the local business economy. Greg Ryan senior reporter for the Boston Business Journal examines demand for clean energy jobs. Jon Chesto business reporter with The Boston Globe explains why the International Teamsters union decided not to endorse a presidential candidate this time around. Jack Burton a student at Tufts University talks about his new tool called the Dunkin Scout. And finally, Mike Dee former chief operating officer of the Boston Red Sox talks about his new pickle ball business.
