Zo takes a vacation in the Big Apple fully intending on visiting the Statue of Liberty. Even though the statue was being renovated it was still open to visitors and Zo noticed some crazy shenanigans outside the statue. It seems that one of the tourists is on the outside and jumping around the massive and complex scaffolding that had been erected around the statue. It seems as though this crazy fellow is being pursued by the construction crews. The strength and balance that the man has to jump around the scaffolding is amazing, not even the construction workers seem as skilled. This whole situation is incredibly peculiar, but it's just another day in New York one might guess. Episode Segments00:04:23 Opening Credits for Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins starring Fred Ward and Joel Grey00:15:27 Favorite Parts of the 1985 film: Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins00:40:56 Trivia from the Action Comedy Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins00:52:59 Critics' Thoughts on Guy Hamilton's Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins  Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.

After a scuffle over a sandwich at the docks, an officer “dies.” But, they RoboCop this fella good! He is now Remo Williams (Fred Ward). They shave his mustache and make him a shadow assassin within the government. Once he washes the hamburger and hot dog smell from his body, he learns from Chiun (Joel Grey) to complete a series of montage training sequences – including an awesome Statue of Liberty tough guys on scaffolding beatdown! In the background of all of this, some guy is doing stuff with faulty guns and shotty satellites. Seems problematic. Conn MacCleary (J.A. Preston) and Harold Smith (Wilford Brimley) don't like that and make sure Williams stops him. Major Fleming (Kate Mulgrew) is agreeable along the way. RTS trains to breathe so they can fully live. Jeremy, La-Mar and Collin learn that everything is just a feeling. So, master yours and run on the water that's holding you back. We see the “feeble glint of promise” in your eyes.

Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins is based on The Destroyer series of pulp novels. Clearly inspired by James Bond, the character takes an American spin on the cloak and dagger antics of black ops. Unlike Agent 007, though, Remo Williams—at least in his big screen incarnation—is not the most compelling character. And by modern sensibilities, it doesn't help that his trainer—an elderly Korean marital arts master named Chiun—is an assemblage of racist tropes. Oh, lest I forget, he's played by a white actor in bad makeup. Cue the wide eyes emoji. Thus, despite being helmed by 60s/70s Bond staple Guy Hamilton, Remo Williams fails to capture the charm of those cinematic escapades. And on a budget of $40 million—which was quite high for 1985—it grossed just $14.4 million. Cinematic universes are not born with those type of receipts.

Tread Perilously returns to pilot season for a selection of shows that may or may not have made it to series. First up: Remo Williams comes to television in a pilot episode called "The Prophecy." A year after the events of Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins, Remo and Chiun have relocated to the Southern California beaches. But with Chiun's promise to train Remo for a year nearing its end, he plans to return to Korea while his pupil plans for some debauchery. Neither gets what they want as CURE Director Smith has plans of his own for the pair. And will either be ready for Chiun's prophecy to come true? Erik and Justin acknowledge the Joseph Wiseman in the room as they discuss the problem with casting Roddy McDowell as Chiun. Their picks to replace him, though, reveal a lack of familiarity with Korean actors in the 1980s. Series star Jeffrey Meek also proves to be a problem -- but a very different one! Erik's Roddy McDowell impression turns into Kate Mulgrew for various reasons. Justin reveals Remo's origins in the book world. The TV history of Judy Landers is explored. The pilot's structure gets criticized and a crappy robot accentuates many of the episode's overall flaws. But will Justin determine if Remo Williams made it to series?

Positioned as a "red, white, and blue-collar" alternative to the James Bond franchise, based on an extremely popular series of paperback novels, and starring an up-and-coming leading man...the producers of REMO WILLIAMS has every reason to believe the adventure would not just begin, but continue for many years. So what the heck went wrong? Why is a future Star Trek captain so wasted here? Did Wilford Brimley charge producers more if they asked him to stand up? And is it even possible to discuss the film at all without examining its very questionable casting choice in one of the key roles?

Is it an homage to classic 70's kung-fu movies, complete with an old master teaching a young and impatient prodigy the mystic and ancient ways of combat? Perhaps it's a tongue-in-cheek popcorn action movie, poking fun at itself while projecting chaotic and entertaining action sequences with reckless abandon? Or is it a poignant commentary on shadow organizations and the futility - and risks - of embracing an assassinate evil policy to address the world's issues? Well, your guess is as good as ours, and we're pretty sure the people who made this movie didn't know either. Just like the pile of vomit Benny's dog helpfully deposits on the one patch of carpeted floor in the house every week, Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins is a jumbled patty of everything mentioned here - vomit included. Hold on to Ferris wheels, steel pipes hanging off the side of the Statue of Liberty, and any other ridiculous object you can grasp as we try our best to understand what the hell is going on in this movie. We're pretty sure Remo Williams was supposed to cash in on all of the crazy action movies tearing up the box office at the time, but fell victim to a combination of starring someone no one has ever heard of before (or after), and being absolutely bonkers-level insane. Seriously, we have no idea what happened in this thing, or why, or how. We just know that it was two hours of absolute insanity. And not good insanity, like a pile of puppies all fighting to give you kisses. We're talking bad insanity, like when you drop napalm-quality farts in the car, and secretly lock the windows so you can revel in your family members crying, frantically fumbling with buttons, and dry heaving uncontrollably. Happy summer! If you can stomach it, strap in while Jay and Benny waste your time discussing such things as: Remo's elderly Asian instructor wasn't played by an Asian person. Let's just get that out of the way Remo Williams won an actual, for real Oscar for makeup, because of the work done to make someone non-Asian look Asian. We'll get that out of the way as well One final thing to get out of the way: Chiun is far and away the best character in this movie, and almost makes it worth the watch. Joel Grey's acting is fantastic, the lines he delivers are well-timed, and he's the most likeable person in this entire disaster While completely unintentional, this movie does a great job making the audience really think about the implications of assassination. Killing off the world's worst people sounds great in theory, but is it? Remo's training throughout the movie feels like it's less martial arts, and more a mix of goofy parkour and kids on YouTube risking their lives for a few likes At one point, the bad guys pay three random construction workers $20 each to literally murder a human being. And they have absolutely no problem with this arrangement Remember in The Matrix, when Neo dodged bullets and it was the coolest thing you had ever seen? Well, Remo dodges bullets as well. It is absolutely not the coolest thing you have ever seen Someone get me the name of the dog trainer used in this movie, because the guard dogs that attack Remo are smarter than Benny. That isn't saying much, but still Fred Ward, who played Remo, has a filmography with Tremors and Joe Dirt at the top of it. Just saying
