Happy Hour #28 - Big Trouble In Little China (feat. Nerdrotic)

[@Straight8S]

Jack: "And rule the universe from beyond the grave..." Lo Pan, "Indeed!" Jack, "Or check into a psycho ward, which ever comes first, huh?" What a fun movie. And yes, one that could never be made today.

[@patrickthomas2119]

Jack: "What, I'm supposed to buy this shit? 2,000 years and he can't find a broad to fit the bill? Come on, Dave, you must be doin' somethin' seriously wrong." Lo Pan : There have been others, to be sure. There are always others, are there not? You seem to be one who knows the difficulties between men and women. How seldom it works out. and yet we keep trying like fools. Who is this? Friends of yours? You see this really pisses me off to no end. This movie is gold; every line you can so quotable; every frame is filled no wasted time awesome characters, the effects for the most part hold up great. I means this movie is just fantastic.

@@beardedbjorn5520 looking on IMDB it's listed on Dwayne Johnson's page. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. But the writer for it is the guy who wrote the original so it might be okay.

[@patrickthomas2119]

@@nathanlane3055 urgh so annoying there are some films that should just be left the fuck alone. Princess Bride and Big Trouble in little China are films that are what they are because of when they were made. Just leave it alone and create something new. Also Dwayne Johnson is an action star doofus with about half the charisma of Russel. There is no way you would be able to get away with the Rock not being the badass fighter like they did with Kurt and that is one of the best humorous parts about this film. Jack Burton being so out of his depth but trying desperately to keep up while failing a lot but completely undeterred by his mistakes. It is brilliant. Just. Grrh fuck Hollywood this is why I don’t watch TV or see new movies. I have stopped being a “fan” of franchises. If they remake BTILC it needs to be a box office bomb and immediately forgotten about sort of like Robo Cop Or Total Recall.

[@Celesteparadise]

@@Zerofightervi in a lunar eclipse is when I like to watch it. Or also during a solar eclipse. A partial eclipse is a good atmosphere for watching it. On the other hand, u can't beat a good re-watch of this film during a meteor shower. It's good to watch some John Carpenter during global warming. Almost as good as watching his work during global cooling. "Big Trouble in Little China" is - all joking aside, now - BEST enjoyed during climate change. Of course it was really nice to watch during the 80's, too... back when we just had WEATHER. 🤓👌!

[@gerardcote8391]

One of the funniest lines you couldn't do today, at the beginning Jack asks Wang if he knows Kung Fu. Wang responds "That's racist " Today Jack would melt like a snowflake. But Jack just gives him te look. And Wang, just laughs and says of course I do.

[@infinitesimotel]

They would have left it out. More likely something demeaning and belittling would have been written in to be thrown at Jack because racism against Whties is perfectly acceptable for some reason.

[@based9930]

Is that in the DC? I don't recall that scene happening. I recall Jack asking if one of the guys speaks English.

[@manuelsalgado9457]

When I saw Lightning firing up his hands I was sooo hooked...

[@Zerofightervi]

I believe that was added because test audiences didn't know what the hell was going on when all of the magical stuff started happening. It was a little teaser to show this isn't your typical action film.

[@robertbishop7722]

"See? That was nothing. But that's always how it starts. Small." I love how the opening has an infinitely better hook and far better foreshadowing than any movie Hollywood can CONCEIVE of now. The movie escalates CONSTANTLY and never goes backwards. I love how Kurt Russell is playing a parody of his action hero roles of the times, and I love how we, the audience, see this insane black magic shit through his eyes, the eyes of a normal man like us that is so far out of his element it's laughable. Like when he punches the Storm and then when it just does nothing he smiles and nods, or the "WHAT?! WHAT WILL NEVER COME OUT AGAIN?!" It all subverts expectations into a perfect finale that was set up from the beginning "It's all in the reflexes". I have never seen a movie set up something so perfectly and have you go "HOLY SHIT" like that moment This movie is top 3 best of all time. Seriously.

[@infinitesimotel]

There are no more remarkable directors or writers, They are just a faceless committee or committee chosen nonentities with no creativity, purely shitting out agenda driven propaganda dogshit.

[@hariman7727]

Big trouble in Little China is how you subvert expectations. They set up Jack Burton as the main character, but everything that happens to him in the first 75 to 80% of the movie shows him to be the sidekick and not the actual hero, and then the shit hits the fan and he steps up and becomes the hero because he's the only one who's not paralyzed in fear by Lo Pan and his minions. And even then, Wang is still a hero too because he's the one who fought to get everyone to that point and backed Jack Burton up when the roles switched. It's a repeat bait and switch that blows movies like The Last Jedi and Lightyear out of the water.

[@themydnighthour]

They speak Cantonese in the film. It's mostly curse words which makes it even more hilarious.

[@Hiraghm]

but everything egg said was true. We are in his debt because he ultimately killed Lo Pan. And he showed great courage, repeatedly. Courage doesn't mean not being afraid; it means being afraid and struggling on anyway.

[@Clemppu]

It's all in the reflexes.

[@LilNewo]

@@Hiraghm courage is a skill applied to fear, like swordplay to the blade.

[@HisNameWasCrazy]

According to Carpenter the opening scene with Egg Chen was a last minute addition at the Studios request, as without it they felt the film would be too confusing for the audience. A rare instance of studio interference actually working out pretty well.

[@Zerofightervi]

[@ronmani9476]

one of my fave scenes is the "gun trading" scene right after Jack jumps off the wheelchair at the well... the way wang, him and eddie swap guns while discussing their plans is classic.Its such a little throw-away scene yet I crack up everytime I see it.

[@la8208]

One of the coolest things about this movie is Jack is such an unlikely hero done perfectly. In the beginning he really wants to help Wang find Miao Yen and likes Gracie, but at the same time he’s too proud to admit both. Yet he always puts himself deeper into danger. In the end he gets the ultimate win and is still cool enough to disappear just as mysteriously as he appeared. Does the monster kill him in the end, of course not! We just learned you can’t underestimate Jack Burton. Carpenter was a genius in building this character.

[@dustman96]

I felt like The Thing was one of those movies that couldn't be made any better.

[@josiahclarke3535]

Yeah it's near perfect as a Sci Fi thriller

[@Hiraghm]

well, it could be made MUCH better if they ever followed the original story, "Who Goes There?"

[@dustman96]

@@Hiraghm I'll respectfully disagree. The acting, directing, script, casting, and everything really came together in this one. I can't imagine that all coming together so well regardless of the story.

[@jekw23]

@@dustman96 agree. Big trouble and the thing I consider perfection. I read who goes there years ago and found it interesting but very dry reading. Carpenters adaption is a classic on its own terms. I wouldn’t change a frame of either of these. Can rewatch endlessly

[@JamesBrewerDJ]

Went to watch this at the cinema alone (1st time). Tried to explain it to my Dad when I got home. He didn't have a scooby what I was babbling about. 10 Years later he watched it and loved it and we used to watch it together whenever it was on TV. He passed away last year. Always makes me think of him now when I watch it. Like Jack B the old man was a funking Lej!

My wife let me go watch it again and I didn't go pee....I watched the scene and it then made total sense.

[@snusemcgoose1001]

This movie is an extremely underrated, hidden gem of a film. Nobody I ever bring this movie up to has ever even heard of it, but after I show them it they love it and can’t imagine why it didn’t blow up and do much better back when it came out. As these guys have said in here, this films, writing, acting, set production, cinematography, costumes and makeup, the effects, it’s all incredible and works very well with one another. This movies script objectively just runs way more coherently and smoothly than most films nowadays and this was seen as some random side film during its release. Nobody even really payed it as much mind back then, like I said, a very underrated gem.

[@RRTNZ]

"Are you crazy, is that your problem ?" Great movie and great live stream, very lucky to have caught it on my day off. Long the Drinker and Gary, preserving 80s awesomeness that much of today's media try to pretend never happened.

[@DeltaEcho303]

There were rumors a while back that The Rock was going to do a BTiLC remake. I sincerely hope it never happens because the original is perfect. There's no way they'd hold to the foundational theme of the movie that despite Jack being the main character, he's not the hero of the story.

This is exactly how I feel, so I made a 80's style monster movie like the ones I loved as a child, when going to movies was so fun! I love Big Trouble in Little China, Thanks Drinker & Nerdrotic!

I would love to see a critical drinker review of my favorite childhood movie, Willow.

That subscribe thing happened to me. I was watching your 1 mil video and I was like finally we did it you earned it. And went to comment and saw the grey subscribe button. I was like what? No it won’t be fine! Tatiana needs her tips man! And I resubbed. So now I get to help you continue to 2 million. Cheers m8!

After greatly enjoying this trip down memory lane, stopped by the Burnettwork and submitted my entry for lead actor and title for remake of The Maltese Falcon: Kurt Russell as Jack Spade in Big Trouble Over A Little Black Bird
