I was supposed to go to cinema and watch super girl but due to heat I decide to stay home and watch this old movie.

Guys WTF? Just first 20 minutes is fucked up and it just go more wild every few minute. The most crazy think that Big Trouble in Little China was made by Carpenter, this same Carpenter that made The Thing but this move is bad.

There is a lot crazy thing here but it still could be a good movie, but, a directions of many scene is fucked up. For example there is scene when dialogue are played like character were a far from each other but they are close each other, there are scene that dialogues are just word throw out in to space.

Best example why this movie is bad is very first scene that is supposed to be narration after things that happens in move, but it actually does not connect with action that actually happens in movie.

I maintain that this is the best video game movie ever made. It's just an adaptation of a game that doesn't exist.

You just hate chinkois, pajeet.

>>221398863
That a good idea, although I like to think about movie like it was a RPG session and with shit that it is happening here I couldn't. I mean it is critical 1 after critical 20 all the time.

This is shitty b8 disguised as an ESL post.

>>221398894
Not really, actually opposite of it as I watch a lot of Asian series or movies.
>>
>due to heat
your theater ain't gots AC?
>>
>>221398935
Sadly I have to drive to neighbors city to get to theater, and ac in my car is... Let say I do have ac and leave it on this.
>>221398922
Bait my ass, this movie is so fucked up that I want to talk about it.
>>
>>221398775
It's a comedy movie, you retard. You're supposed to laugh at the absurdity of it. It also created several Mortal Kombat characters.
>>
>>221399045
Oh there are parts that are good comedy and I did laugh at theme but there is a lot of scene in this movie that I just can imagine how it look like in script and how it was supposed to look like.

It could be so better movie with a good director... But wait it got really good director, yet it is fucked up.
>>
>>221399104
The whole point of the movie is that they were just enjoying themselves and taking the piss out of everything. They called the good guy wizard "Egg Shen", it's just fun and silly. Kurt Russell's character isn't a hero, he's just a bumbling moron who somehow manages to solve things through his instincts. If you don't like the humor then that's okay, but there's a reason that a lot of people do.

>>221399045
The first time I watched it, was with some Europeans. I laughed from the opening dialogue to end credits, and they all looked at me like, why aren't we watching Quentin Tarantino. He says nigger. I get that that is wrong.
>>
You leave Jack Burton alone! We are in his debt.

>this kino is so fucking kino that I want to talk about it.
agreed.

>>221399174
Jack is a reasonable guys, he’s just seen a lot of unreasonable things

>several Mortal Kombat characters
more like all of them it would be easier to list the MK characters that aren't inspired by BTLC

After I watched it for the first time, I posted here just saying "I don't get it."
First response was anon posting the gif of Lo Pan saying "you were not put on this earth to 'get it'."
Humbled my ass instantly.

This is my favorite film of all time and objectively the best edited film ever.
There are zero seconds of wasted frames in this film.
It is not rushed, but not for one second will you be left wanting.
Score is amazing, cast is perfect. Film is perfect.

I have no problem admitting when a movie filters me. I didn't like it. The ironically corny thing doesn't appeal to me.
>>
>>221398863
I love this idea.
>>
>>221402582
It isn't ironic though. They play it straight which is why it works for me.
>>
>>221398892
Holy shit.

Favorite lines, guys? Mine’s

>What is that?
>Black blood of the Earth.
>Oh, you mean oil?

the set where Lopan floats through the wall to visit his two brides to be is my all time favorite
it's so good
>>
>>221402607
>Holy shit.
IKR? What was its purpose? I mean; it's fantastic and all but was way too much work and cost too much to just be having a giggle.

Yeah there's a bit of a double dragon vibe about it
>>
>>221402635
My fave line is when kurt russel goes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHH!!!!! in excitement and then he shoots the ceiling and it falls down and knocks him out
>>
I wanna throw it on now, the commentary is so good. Kurt and John just kicking back laughing and having a good time.
Just 2 bros hanging out. Absolute kino.

I love that they got James Hong (Movie Lo Pan) to do the elevator scene. That's just chef's kiss

That's the only fucking example and it was put in after the movie was done and forced in by producers who insisted that 'Jack be the hero and it be made clear he's the hero'

You have to be a fan of 70s wuxia and kung fu movies to fully appreciate this. I always thought Big Trouble was overrated until I deep dived into kung fu and wuxia films, and I came tonrealize its greatness
