Or Evil Spirits Make a Big Scene in Little Spiritual State.
Or Big Trouble in Little China!
I just love this movie, and while perusing my dvds in search of something to watch while reading comics, this just... stuck out. I had to put it on. And I did. And I haven't read a comic yet.
It's hard to concentrate when characters like Jack Burton and Lo Pan are hamming it up on the screen. So much fun.
This is in pure John Carpenter fashion, and I give thanks everyday that him and Kurt Russell work so damn well and often together.
The best of Jack Burton.
It's all in the reflexes!

I love this movie so much. It's the perfect amount of action and cheese. It's got cool effects, great characters and funny jokes. I used to watch this every time it came on TBS (which was pretty much every other week), and now I can watch it whenever I want. Good times.

I plan on upscaling to blu-ray because of all the extras. C'mon, 9 deleted scenes and an extended ending?! YES PLEASE!

This is a classic. I must have seen it at least 10 times as a kid.

Yeah, that's one of the times it's worth getting the upgrade for. The movie is hilarious enough as it is, I'd love to see what was left on the cutting room floor.

I'd love if they were to make another movie in this style. I can't think of another movie quite like this one.

You mean a mix of Fantasy, Comedy and Kung-Fu? Only thing that comes to mind right now is The Man With The Iron Fists, only less fantastical.
