Podcasts about Robert Clouse

Enter... if you dare. It's squealing martial arts and ninja death mayhem as Ali joins us to discuss Enter the Dragon (1973), directed by Robert Clouse and Enter the Ninja (1981), directed by Menahem Golan. Each of these films were seminal in their own way, the first as a tragically premature end-point for Bruce Lee's career, and the second as a statement of intent for the then-new Cannon Films Group. But we also address such existential questions as: IS "wait... what?" the new buzz-phrase of the decade? IS there any greater joy than watching a very small man beat up a very tall man? And of course, the age old conundrum: NINJA or NO NINJA? We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Enter the Dragon by skipping ahead to the 1:01:41 mark, and for Enter the Ninja by skipping ahead to 1:45:14.

Packed with iconic and athletic action sequences, it remains a seminal work in the martial arts genre and a must-watch for fans of Bruce Lee and martial arts cinema.

Driving and parking scenes. No one does them more than James Nguyen. Unless you're Robert Clouse directing Ironheart. There is at least as much driving and parking in this movie as there is fighting.

Fifty years ago this month, most of the world was first introduced to a true legend of both cinema and martial arts with the release of this action thriller.  Of course that legend was the late, great Bruce Lee who tragically passed away just about a month before this movie was to hit theaters.  Needless to say, he left his mark playing Lee a Hong Kong spy/martial arts master who is tasked with infiltrating a mysterious island tournament being run by the nefarious Han played by Kien Shih.  Lee also has help from two American martial artists who have joined this tournament played by John Saxon and Jim Kelly.  Once on the island, they fight, they feast, and they.....interact with various elements (?) and what results is a rip-roaring kung fu classic.  Directed by Robert Clouse, it's time to ENTER...THE....DRAGON! Host: Geoff Gershon Editors: Geoff and Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershonhttps://livingforthecinema.com/ https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Jackie Chan in AMERICA! On this episode of WE DO OUR OWN STUNTS Jackie makes his first American excursion to star in the Robert Clouse directed comedy-action vehicle THE BIG BRAWL (aka BATTLE CREEK BRAWL). Despite Jackie knowing very little English (and having to promote the film on American television) and working a very different style than he was used to, the film is actually a ton of fun - as long as you don't go in expecting the acrobatic fighting from his recent Hong Kong films. We also chat about the recent RIDE ON controversy, Jackie's appearances in HIDDEN STRIKE and TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM, and SO MUCH MORE. Check it out! The post Episode 184 – We Do Our Own Stunts – The Big Brawl (1980) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.

Normalmente, non sono mai stato un fan dei film di Bruce Lee, ma questa pellicola mi è rimasta nel cuore, appassionandomi dall'inizio alla fine. Mr. Lee, cazzutissimo monaco shaolin, viene contattato dai servizi segreti per partecipare al torneo organizzato dal perfido Mr. Han, che riunisce tutti i combattenti più bravi, con lo scopo di smantellare l'organzzazione criminale di Han, che spadroneggia incontrastato sulla sua isola personale. Per Mr. Lee sarà l'occasione di vendicare anche la morte della sorella. Della partita saranno anche gli americani John Roper e Kelly Williams. I 2 dell'Operazione Drago è un film semplice quanto volete, ma ricco d'azione magistralmente coreografata dallo stesso Bruce Lee, che qui è anche meno spocchioso del solito, accennando anche un minimo di ironia, mentre John Saxon nel ruolo del lottatore americano donnaiolo e sbruffone è fantastico! Scenografie perfette ed un'ottima colonna sonora a tema, fanno di questo titolo un must di grande successo all'epoca della sua uscita nelle sale. Un film che avrebbe dato notorietà mondiale al padre di Brandon Lee, morto in circostanze misteriose poco prima della distribuzione della pellicola. Ad oggi, I 3 dell'Operazione Drago rimane un cult assoluto e un film appartenente al filone action orientale sicuramente da vedere o recuperare.

Operação Dragão (1973), de Robert Clouse, vai acompanhar uma competição de luta que convoca grandes lutadores de todos os paises para a ilha particular de um chefão do crime chinês.

Book: The Rats By James Herbert ​Film: Deadly Eyes (1982)  A horror novel by British writer James Herbert. This was Herbert's first novel and included graphic depictions of death and mutilation.  Herbert became inspired to write The Rats in early 1972, whilst watching Tod Browning's Dracula; specifically, after seeing the scene where Renfield describes a nightmare he had involving hordes of rats. Linking the film to childhood memories he had of rats in the London suburbs, Herbert stated in later interviews that he wrote the book primarily as a pastime; "It seemed like a good idea at the time, I was as naive as that."  The manuscript was typed by Herbert's wife Eileen, who sent it off after nine months to nine different publishers The Canadian horror film directed by Robert Clouse, very loosely based on the 1974 horror novel The Rats by James Herbert. The story revolves around giant black rats who begin eating the residents of Toronto after ingesting contaminated grain.  Dachshunds wearing rat suits were used in the filming of Deadly Eyes to achieve the effect of super-sized rodents.  James Herbert, who wrote the novel upon which the film was based, was displeased with what the filmmakers did to his story, and described it as "terrible ... absolute rubbish.   Opening Credits; Introduction (1.01); Plot Synopsis (13.21); Forming the Plot (14.22); Book Thoughts (18.57); Scoring the Book (46.03); Book of the Season (49.56); Introducing a Film (56.00); Film Trailer (56.41);  Lights, Camera, Action (58.44); Epilogue (1:23.48); Film of the Season (1:26.46); End Credits (1:32.08); Closing Credits (1:33.24)   Opening Credits– Classical Jingle by Dan Hughes   Closing Credits – The Rat by The Walkmen.  Taken from the album Bows & Arrows.  Copyright 2004 Record Collection.   Original Music copyrighted 2020 Dan Hughes Music and the Literary License Podcast.    All rights Reserved.  Used by Kind Permission.   All songs available through Amazon.

The B-Movie Cast is back! In this episode, Mary and Nic are joined by filmmaker, actor, and martial arts movie aficionado, Michael Worth. Michael has taken a break from filmmaking, writing about ‘Bruce-splotation' films, and launching The Pearl River Collection (of lost Martial Arts flicks) through VCI Entertainment, to check out Robert Clouse's attempt… ok

This week we look at Robert Clouse's Deadly Eyes, staring Bruce Lee, Kareem Abdul Jafaar and 35 dachshunds as very mean rats.

"Opération Dragon" ("Enter The Dragon" en anglais) est un film dʹaction. Plus précisément, un film de kung-fu qui impose Bruce Lee comme une star internationale. Réalisé par Robert Clouse en 1973, "Opération Dragon" reprend à la mode hollywoodienne, les codes des films de Hong-Kong.

We're *kicking* it into high gear today with Enter The Dragon. This was a new one for both of us, tune in and see how it went!

So what do you do when you've got forty minutes of amazing Bruce Lee fight footage on your hands but your leading man just happens to be...well...dead? If you're Golden Harvest you hire ENTER THE DRAGON director Robert Clouse to build a movie around your deceased star using outtakes, body doubles (who don't look anything like Lee) and even a cardboard cut out at one point. The result is one of the most garish, ghoulish, exploitative movies ever to be put out by a mainstream studio (Columbia Pictures), which, to add insult to injury, only used a fraction of the glorious fight footage. Oh well, at least it had a score by John Barry.

We look at two films that feature the martial arts legend Joe Lewis this time on the podcast. We were not familiar with him but he popped up on our radar and seemed perfect for the show. We start off with his debut starring role in 1979's "Jaguar Lives" which also features a sizeable cast of legendary actors. It's a fun combination of martial arts and James Bond, with globe-trotting, intrigue and an inscrutable plot. We follow that up with 1981's "Force Five" from show-favorite director Robert Clouse. It's a familiar plot, with an evil leader who has an island stronghold that must be stopped. It has some really fun moments, with great stunt work. Please let us know what you thought of the show, and send us some suggestions for future episodes. You can email us at flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com.

However, it is THE UNIFIED ARTS (music, movies, sports and entertainment) which has always been very effective in bringing us all together since the beginning of time.We will use vivid examples from movies ("Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" - 1993 Starring Jason Scott Lee, directed by Rob Cohen, written by Robert Clouse, Linda Lee Cadwell, and Edward Khmara) and ("Code of Silence" - 1985 Starring Chuck Norris, directed by Andrew Davis, written by Michael Butler, Dennis Shryack, and Mike Gay).While one film (DRAGON) points out how a positive cultural exchange can be a achieved through martial arts, the other (CODE OF SILENCE) prophetically addresses a very crucial problem that we still face today, police misconduct....

Announcements about the Adventures in VHS book, followed by a full show looking at the Robert Clouse directed, 1982 adaptation of The Rats - also known as Deadly Eyes. I dig deep into its UK VHS release on Guild Home Video and chat about the novel on which it is based - which was apparently something of a household staple back in the day!

On this week's episode, we discuss the 1973 Robert Clouse film "Enter The Dragon". Featuring special guest, Blakey.

Gareth (The Raid, Gangs of London) Evans and Sope (Gangs of London) Dirisu join Flixwatcher to review Gareth’s choice Enter the Dragon. Enter the Dragon is the 1973 Bruce Lee martial film directed by Robert Clouse. Famous for many things but mainly for being the last film Lee completed before his untimely death at the age of 32. Even if you’ve never seen Enter the Dragon you seen the poster and the iconic image of Lee shirtless with the bloody claw marks across his body. You’ll probably also know the final battle in the room mirrors too, most recently John Wick 2 played homage to the scene. In Enter of the Dragon Lee plays erm Lee, who is hired James Bond style to attend a high profile martial arts competition being held on the private island belonging to suspected crime lord Han. He is also given the opportunity for revenge when he finds out Han’s bodyguard was responsible for the death of his sister. Sadly Enter the Dragon also suffers from very outdated James Bond 70s writing and inappropriate references. That said, Lee is the star and his physical presence and skills just about make up for the weaknesses in plot/characters. I’m 2004 it was deemed culturally significant and rightfully so. Scores [supsystic-tables id=166] Adored by martial arts fans Enter the Dragon scores highly across recommendability and extremely highly from Kobi and guests to score a very respectable 4.25 overall.

In the final episode of Catching Up On Cinema's "Moving On March" event month, Trevor has Kyle sit down to watch his FIRST Bruce Lee movie ever, Enter the Dragon (1973)! Directed by Robert Clouse, the film is the last (completed) and most culturally significant film in the career of the Chinese-American martial arts icon, Bruce Lee. Co-starring John Saxon and featuring the debut performance of Jim Kelly, as well as featuring cameos from Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, Enter the Dragon is one of most influential films to come out of the martial arts subgenre.

Just in time for Thanksgiving, we have the ultimate turkey for our listeners: 1985’s GYMKATA, directed by Robert Clouse. Olympic gymnast Kurt Thomas stars as an elite athlete recruited by the U.S. government to participate in a top secret competition where the winner will be awarded a major advantage in the Cold War. Or something. … Continue reading Ep. #105-Gymkata →

Another post apocalyptic film about the end of humanity and what they would go through to survive. This includes possibly cutting off your own hand instead of cutting the rope. But who am I to judge.

This week on Scream Addicts, Guest Host Paul Farrell welcomes Brian Saur to the show! A writer and podcaster known for Rupert Pupkin Speaks, Just the Discs and Pure Cinema, Mr. Saur has chosen Robert Clouse’s 1982 horror film Deadly Eyes for discussion this week. Based upon the novel The Rats by James Herbert, Deadly Eyes launches a talk which finds Paul and Mr. Saur discussing the animal attack subgenre, the film’s current out of print status, and the fact that the film’s rats are portrayed by tiny canines in rat costumes (!).  Along the way, the pair discuss the film’s source novel, the film’s uncomfortable love triangle, and…pet tarantulas?! It’s a fantastic talk with wonderful people, and it’s one we hope you enjoy!

The boys discuss Robert Clouse's film from 1973, Enter the Dragon, and Paul W. S. Anderson's 1995 film, Mortal Kombat, over some "cheap and good" beverages.

In a tradition of great "Force" films featured here on our show, we take a look at Force: Five, a sweet karate movie from direct Robert Clouse of Enter the Dragon and Gymkata fame.

We kick off season 4 — and our chronological tour through martial arts cinema — with the 1925 film OROCHI. After some glowing reviews of the film, we talk about the number of ways in which it feels like a very modern piece of cinema: from some of the gender politics, to the stunning choreography of some of its fight scenes, and its almost nihilistic overall message. Next Week The next in our series of martial arts films, and the last silent movie for this genre, is the 1931 film whose English title is JIROKICHI THE RAT. This Week's Media 30 ROCK (2006—13): Tina Fey, Tracy Morgan, Jane Krakowski VENOM (2018): Ruben Fleischer, Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams SUMMER OF 84 (2018): François Simard, Graham Verchere, Judah Lewis Further Watching 47 RONIN (2013): Carl Rinsch, Keanu Reeves, Hiroyuki Sanada ENTER THE DRAGON (1973): Robert Clouse, Bruce Lee, John Saxon HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER (1973): Clint Eastwood, Verna Bloom, Marianna Hill MAD MAX 2: THE ROAD WARRIOR (1981): George Miller, Mel Gibson, Harold Baigent Footnotes For more on the traditions of Japanese cinema with which OROCHI was engaging, see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabuki. A reminder that we covered DRUNKEN ANGEL, the 1948 Kurosawa film which certainly owes a debt to this one, in September 2017 (way back in the mists of time): http://www.kaiju.fm/prestige/3-05-drunken-angel-and-disease. This video shows some of the absurdly heightened editing that we see in later martial arts/action films; as Rob discusses, the absence of these techniques from OROCHI is really quite refreshing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRcfHkPDt5I. Finally, it seems appropriate to end an episode on this film, with its especially negative central message, with a note about where Sam thought this narrative was going: https://www.britannica.com/topic/seppuku.

Aproveitando a popularidade de Jim Kelly na sequência de O Dragão Ataca, com Bruce Lee, o actor foi a estrela de uma série de filmes na década de setenta que cruzavam dois géneros, em alta na altura, o blaxploitation e o kung-fu: Neste episódio falamos de Black Belt Jones, de 1974 escrito por Oscar Williams e realizado por Robert Clouse, e Hot Potato, uma espécie de sequela escrita e realizada por Oscar Williams.

Although Bob Wall had no desire to become a film star, he somehow ended up appearing in some of the highest grossing martial arts films of all time. As Chuck Norris’ business partner and Bruce Lee’s training buddy and friend for over a decade, Bob – a world professional karate champion – found himself cast as one of the baddies in Lee's 1972 film, The Way of the Dragon. Bob provided a similar foil to Lee’s on-screen attacks the following year when he was cast as the treacherous villain, O’harra, in the 1973 martial arts classic, Enter the Dragon. In this candid interview, Bob Wall – now aged 78 and speaking to me from his home in California – recalls a young and charismatic Bruce Lee who ruffled feathers amongst the martial arts community and revolutionised the action film genre. Despite a few film appearances since Enter the Dragon (including Robert Clouse’s Game of Death and supporting roles in Chuck Norris films), Bob – who describes himself as a “foul-mouthed Irishman” – mostly retired from the movie business following Lee’s untimely death. But the Bob Wall story doesn’t end there. Listen as he recalls training with Gene LeBell, Mike Stone and Joe Lewis, and teaching superstars like Steve McQueen, Freddie Prinze and Elvis Presley. He is still active on the martial arts scene as the founder of World Black Belt, and through his many appearances at seminars around the world. For the latest Bob Wall information, head to bobwallworldblackbelt.com. Also on the show, I talk to the action film expert and writer Timon Singh, who drops by to talk about his new book, 'Born to Be Bad – Talking to the Greatest Villains in Action Cinema', which features interviews with some of the best big screen baddies, including Bob Wall. 'Born to Be Bad' is available now in hardback, paperback and on Kindle via Amazon.

I first saw Robert Clouse's Darker Than Amber (1970) two years ago, which was a full 44 years after its initial release. That year, I counted it among the very best of what I saw, and I saw a lot of wonderful films. Why did it make such an impression?… The post Episode 022 – Darker Than Amber appeared first on The Magic Lantern.

Gymkata is one of the pinnacle films that gave Moviesucktastic its humble beginnings. Bad movies like this are what fuels Scott and Joey to do MST. We give Gymkata the review it deserves, or doesn't. You be the judge.

This week, Chris & Paul are joined by Daniel J. Hogan of Clattertron and Armin of biasedcat to discuss the only martials arts/gymnastics mashup film ever, Gymkata. Armin actually filled in for Dan on the Waterworld episode. Dan shares a story about going to the movie theatre to see that film. Suck it, boring Apollo 13 movie! Dan just finished The Martian and we’re all excited to see the film based on the book. Chris thinks you may be more interested in watching Gymkhana. This film came out the same year as The Last Dragon. There was tough box office competition in 1985 like Teen Wolf, Pee Wee’s Big Adventure, Fletch and Goonies. Number 1 in 1985? Back to the Future. Wait, why are there ninja’s on the poster? The film stars Olympic gymnast Kurt Thomas. Armin wants Michael Phelps to star in a Waterworld reboot! Thomas was nominated for a “Worst New Star” Razzie, but lost to Brigitte Nielsen. Villain Zahmir, played by Richard Norton was also in The Octagon. Dan educates the reviewers on hockey legend, Mario Lemieux. Armin is confused by the fact that Reagan nicknamed the missile defense system, Star Wars. Dan reminds us that Robocop lampooned the defense system idea in a brief news segment. Gymkata is based on The Terrible Game by Dan Tyler Moore. Princess Rubali is played by Tetchie Abayani, actress and Playboy model. Why are we introducing all these weapons when he never uses them in the whole movie? Don’t they know Chekov’s gun principle? The director of this film, Robert Clouse also directed Enter the Dragon and Game of Death. Eddie Murphy on Elvis(NSFW). The Khan looks like he just came out of Fiddler on the Roof. Here he is with his daughter in Gymkata. Dan suggests that we watch No Holds Barred. Our hero’s nurse. Dan and Armin think that this is a proto-Hunger Games. Movies recommended on this episode: Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom, The Cutting Edge, Bloodsport and The Maze Runner. Thanks for giving us a listen! We really appreciate it. And, special thanks to Armin & Dan for taking the time to watch the film and do the episode! Check out biasedcat.com & Clattertron.com to support them!

Ali and Jon are back after a seemingly endless hiatus with the legendarily goofy Gymnastics/Martial Arts Mash-Em-Up, Gymkata! Jon has the skill of gymnastics. Ali has the kill of Karate. They both have a timeshare in the Village Of the Crazies. Gymkata "stars" Kurt Thomas and several other people you've never heard of. It was directed by Robert Clouse, and written by Charles Robert Carner, based on the aptly named novel, The Terrible Game, by Dan Tyler Moore. P.S. Jon accidentally calls the "Kahn" of Parmistan the "King" for most of the podcast. He feels shame for his error.

Mer kampsportsfilm! Blandat kompott den här veckan, av hårda knytnävslag och tuff karate.Gymkata är ännu en film från Robert Clouse. Vi går i fällan om och om igen med den här regissören! Inte en helt lyckad film, trots det vinnande konceptet av att kombinera gymnastik och karate.The Blade är en remake från 1995 av 60-talsklassikern The One-armed Swordsman. En riktigt trevlig film tycker vi båda, och det var ett gott återbesök.  

In this week's episode, the gang heads to Utah to kick ass and run for Sheriff with Cynthia Rothrock in the karate classic, China O'Brien! Did anyone notice this is pretty much Walking Tall minus Joe Don Baker? Was that sex slavery storyline really necessary? And is that clearly Australian character really not supposed to be Australian? Plus: Fat and lazy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles troll the Internet. China O'Brien stars Cynthia Rothrock, Richard Norton, Keith Cooke & Steven Kerby; directed by Robert Clouse.

Another week and another episode full of coverage of the films you have come to love the GGtMC for covering on a weekly basis!!
