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/

Summary: “Have you ever been to a buffet where you literally try everything?”   Sometimes the best way to find your new favorite things is to just sample a lot of different things until you find the things that you enjoy the most. As with a buffet…or even dating, you just “grab something” you think you might like and “give it a taste”. If you like it, you keep going back for more. And if it's not your thing, you simply continue the process of sampling and tasting other things until you find something you truly enjoy.   Founded by Markus Staiger in Donzdorf, Germany way back in 1987, NUCLEAR BLAST has signed a myriad of metal artists over the years from across the spectrum of sub genres, ranging from hardcore and symphonic metal to industrial metal, thrash metal, and beyond, including some top tier legacy thrash bands from the 1980's that enjoyed a resurgence in popularity during the 2000's (fun fact: Slayer's final studio album, Repentless, is the highest charting NUCLEAR BLAST release in the United States, making it to Number 4 on the Billboard 200.)   In the context of this particular episode, we are referring to our recent sampling of the artist roster from NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS, and much like with dating and buffets, there were some bands we enjoyed more than others, some that were right up our alley and REALLY hit the spot, and some that just weren't our cup of tea (so to speak), but rest assured that everything we sampled was most definitely interesting and we learned a few things along the way.   Prepare for the most philosophical voicemail about metal music that we've ever received, realize that when it comes to power outages and paranormal activity that “I just wanna make sure that they know that I know that they know” and remember that “sometimes, wet's not bad” when you JOIN US on our sampling expedition of the NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS artist roster.  Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast Show Notes: (00:01): “So, it's wet over there…?

“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.

2 Fast 2 Forever: The Fast and Furious Podcast

We're heading to Samoa again with Scott K, host of The Church of Tarantino and Men of Action podcasts, to talk about Hobbs & Shaw! After talking about why Scott claimed Hobbs & Shaw months ago, we hear his (sort of unusual) rankings. We wind up comparing the franchise (and its characters) to Batman and Robin, Halloween III, and Charles Manson -- each of which inspires exciting possibilities for alternate realities. Scott promises to do some Kurt Russell recon for us then discusses what he loves about Hobbs & Shaw -- and where he wishes the movie ended. Joey comes up with a potential reason why Vin Diesel may be so serious in the later movies and wonders: were they trying to set up Eiza Gonzalez's character for a spinoff?

John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China  When I first saw John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China, it was a Pan & Scan VHS copy from my local video store. I immediately fell in love with one of the strangest and most imaginative films of the 1980s. The fourth collaboration between Horror icon, John Carpenter, and Disney legend Kurt Russell (doing an over the top and ridiculous parody of John Wayne), Big Trouble in Little China is a love letter to the Hong Kong Sword and Sorcery epics of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. With admitted and obvious inspiration from Tsui Hark's Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain, Carpenter's fantasy swordplay epic would employ an almost entirely Asian-American cast led by Denis Dun as Wang Chi, Victor Wong as Egg Shen, and the great James Hong as David Lo Pan. This week Mr. Chavez & I discuss this movie with a focus on how the film stands up to charges of appropriation (lovingly created), Orientalism (questionable), and the White-Saviour trope (mislabeled). An American set, San Francisco and Chinatown comedy that lovingly and respectfully dives into the mythology of culture, history, and hero-making, John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China  is a comedy, that 40 years later, is as thrilling, funny, and exciting as it was when it premiered in the summer of 1986. Take a listen and see if we give this film a fair and balancecd review or if I'm simply too in love with my memories to be objective.

A routine home invasion turns into a full-blown nightmare when Kurt Russell's family crosses paths with the most clingy cop in movie history. After a robbery leaves him feeling vulnerable, Michael Carr welcomes help from Officer Pete Davis, a charismatic police officer who seems determined to protect his family. Unfortunately, Pete's definition of "helping" includes showing up uninvited, sabotaging marriages, planting evidence, committing murder, and generally behaving like a restraining order come to life.Brad breaks down Unlawful Entry (1992), a tense psychological thriller featuring Kurt Russell, Madeline Stowe, and an absolutely unhinged Ray Liotta performance. Along the way, he wonders whether friendship should ever involve alley beatings, compares Pete Davis to a customer-service wolf, imagines conversations no sane person would ever have, and explains why this movie remains so effective decades later.It's creepy, frustrating, surprisingly realistic, and proof that sometimes the scariest villain isn't the burglar who breaks into your house—it's the cop who won't leave afterward.

It'll all make sense if you just watch it on Tubi, but not before getting your strain recs from Ngaio and Philena. And then Philena goes a little more mainstream with SKY HIGH (2005), a live-action Disney comedy about a high school for superheroes that is floating in the clouds. Philena thought this was something she dreamed up until rediscovering it recently. It does exist! The movie has one of the most loaded casts ever with Kurt Russell, Kelly Preston, Bruce Campbell (!), Lynda Carter (!!), Chloris Leachman (!!!), Mary Elizabeth Winstead + Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald from "The Kids in the Hall"!!! Even with Philena controlling the horizontal and the vertical, she has to endure Ngaio and Bob descending into fanboy talk as they go way too deep into Legion of Super Heroes lore for a while, but Philena was fascinated by the tragic tale of Triplicate Girl and Duo Damsel at least. SKY HIGH is streaming on Disney+. Philena, Ngaio and Bob also discuss the zero-budget hit horror movies BACK ROOMS and OBSESSION.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.  Today we discuss perhaps the most likeable movie star alive: Goldie Hawn! Our B-Sides include: Butterflies Are Free, The Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox, Seems Like Old Times, and Deceived. Our guest today is dear friend Jen Johans, host of the superb Watch With Jen Podcast! We chat about Goldie's hot start on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In and the early Oscar she won for her dynamic, engaging performance in Cactus Flower. It was her first film role and she was still on Laugh-In! Hawn quickly became a commercially-friendly representation of the counterculture movement, as evidenced in Butterflies Are Free. There's debate about Goldie on the production of Jonathan Demme's ultimately troubled Swing Shift (though she did officially meet Kurt Russell on set, so a huge silver lining!) and how much it hurt her reputation. We celebrate the TV Specials, how Goldie Hawn is her given name, and her autobiography.  We enjoy the absurdities of Deceived, posit that maybe Protocol was a proto-Ishtar, and admire the shagginess of the stars in 1970s movies. There's mention of Goldie's 1972 album! Her charity comes up! How huge of a star Neil Simon was in the ‘70s and ‘80s comes up! There's a lot to chew on in this episode. Enjoy!

Look, for this episode of “This Looks Like a Good Place for a Stickup,” we're dealing with the world of art theft and art forgery. Interesting stuff! No, neither of us had heard of this movie before, despite the intriguing cast, which includes Kurt Russell, Jay Baruchel, Matt Dillon and . . . Terrance Stamp? Really? Yes, really! In honor of this movie, Mike and I are attempting to replicate one of the masterworks of the 19th Century artist Cassius Marcellus Coolidge. Getting the color balance right, matching the elegance and superb attention to detail is no easy task but I have faith in Mike's superlative skills. This work from 1903, a later piece, is famous around the world and will surely fetch us a serious pile of cash. I'm fairly certain there have been no copies or reproduction of the seminal piece. Gaze up on a rare image of the legendary painting and wonder: the next time you see it on loan from some famous museum, will you ever truly know if it's the original . . . or is it ours. Also, give a listen about the movie! The Coolidge. Poll question: Which actor do you think just doesn't get enough work?

Call me Snake. Okay, well, that's too cool for me, so just make it Ryan. Either way, this 739th episode gets into the night life and action frenzy that is John Carpenter's Escape From New York. Kurt Russell was already establishing himself as something more than just a Disney kid, then his signature role here cemented it. The eclectic Van Cleef/Borgnine/Harry Dean supporting cast surrounding Russell is effective, but the production design, cinematography, music and other technicals in this dystopian sci-fi bleakness are the drawing card. Carpenter was cynical, yet so underrated in his time...even compared to a top-of-his-game Spielberg in that same era. Now, is Escape From New York funny? Maybe not (partly since it feels like this could actually happen), but it IS fun. So, even though everybody thinks you're dead, burst into the open-air prison that is Manhattan and save the president and his precious cassette tape. Cuz the name's Ellis.

In anticipation of the theatrical re-release of Top Gun later this week, this 738th episode has me yapping about Tony Scott's blockbuster that put him on the map and made Tom Cruise a megastar. The one about cocky naval aviators is big, loud and very sweaty. You've got sleek jets, cool, sexy men (and also SOME women like Kelly McGillis)...and a killer soundtrack. The fly boys (including Val Kilmer & Anthony Edwards) also play topless volleyball and spend a lot of time in towels. Naturally, the megahit sequel Top Gun: Maverick came up a lot in this review, since it played off the themes of rebellion, adrenaline and guilt the way that the original did. So caress your plaque that says you won a contest and put on your aviator glasses with a big smile on your face as I feel a certain need for a certain velocity while speaking about Tommy And The Jets. NOTE: a breakdown of all the Oscar nominations in Tony Scott's entire filmography will be the "So I Got Thinkin'" segment in Friday's episode about Escape From New York. Also, during the Coming Attractions Trivia question for that, it should have been Kurt Russell sometimes did "impressions" of other actors, not "inspirations." Help boost this show by spreading propaganda about it like Top Gun did for the navy.
