The fuck did I just watch?

haha dude me too I was like, wtf? hahaha

Possibly the most 80's movie of all time

In my top 5 favorite films. You just watched a masterpiece

Maybe my favorite Carpenter. It's pretty straightforward, so you'd have to be some sort of fucking retard to not understand it, but feel free to ask any questions if you were confused about something.

Why?

>>84394767
what about Thrashin'?

>>84394722
Kino

>>84394808
Could it be made today?

>>84394851
What do you mean why why do you keep asking stupid vague questions

>>84394722
The best film I've ever watched. A masterpiece.

>>84394722
reddit: the movie

>>84394854
No ninjas

OP here, perhaps I should clarify. I thought the movie was fantastic, I was just surprised at how utterly nonsensical it was. I've never seen a movie that gives you exposition be having characters just say the plot that wasn't shit or a B movie.

its great but definitely not better than escape from ny or the thing

But that's how it always begins. Very small.

Such a great movie. The commentary with Kurt and John is worth listening to as well, they both love the movie so much.

>>84394993
>gives you exposition be having characters just say the plot
I guess it works because like us Jack has no idea what is going on and the plot advances so quickly that like Jack we don't have time to register everything

Why didn't Wizards sue?

Forget it OP, it's Big Trouble in Little China

>>84395731
Oh, you.

Its THE cult film

what were they ON when they mad it

>>84395930
Chinese black magic.

>>84394931
I would shoot your kneecaps out if I had the chance.

Beholder only has one central eye. Also it was still TSR at that point I think.

>A beholder has one central eye
A fleshy floating ball with eye tendrils and a big central eye is still a beholder, even if it has a few tiny eyes on the body that aren't on tentacles.

>>84394722
Re-watched this for the first time since I was a kid and certain bits on it are actually hilarious. I wasn't actually expecting it to be a comedy for some reason. I was only expecting cheese.

Too beta and autistic to "speak" to a lawyer.

Still looked better than the D&D movie beholder!

>>84395120
the warriors came out in 1979

>>84395349
Maybe they liked it, idk, I wondered that myself

>>84396495
Even with the ability to use the source material, they still turned it into a floating blood hound rather than an highly intelligent, natural born magic using predator.

Beholders will never get a proper representation.

ice pirates is amazing and more people should see it

>>84394722
THE GREATEST FILM OF ALL TIME

/sarcasm
Aright, it's not as great as some claim. Kinda all over the place and there are some bits in the middle that add absolutely nothing. But it's good (mindless) popcorn-munching fun, and some truly bizarre quotable lines.

>>84397458
god yes this. I'm convinced anyone living in the 80's has seen it and they just don't admit it, considering it was on WGN or TBS every weekend

>>84395047
>definitely not better than escape from ny
I don't think Escape aged as well as Big Trouble. I rewatched it recently and it felt really slow. Still some great bits in there, but I'm not in a hurry to see it again.

>>84395097
>Dwayne Johnson
Getting pretty sick of seeing him everywhere

>>84396297
The part where Jack shoots his gun into the air then immediately gets knocked out by falling debris before the big fight still kills me

>>84394722
a shitty movie by a good director

fuckin masterpiece

>>84395097
>it gets the mummy treatment with a female edgelordess villain that's also grim and """"realistic""" tone so people understand its also sophisticated and not racist


FUCK

NO

>>84394931

>>84394722
Discount version of "The Golden Child"

I really fucking hate summerfags

>>84395120
the warriors isn't 80s at all

Kim Cattrall was INSANELY hot in this

>>84394722
It's funnier when you realize that Kurt Russel is actually the sidekick.

>>84398577
John Carpenter was going to direct that but made this instead

>>84398577
Yeah, the Golden Child was much darker too.

Why is Carpenter the best director ever m8s?

Thing, Escape and China all have this vibe to them that's nothing like anything else I've seen before or after

My favorite film of all time.

>>84399511
So it's the original Fury Road?

>have ya paid your dues jack?
>yes sir the check is in the mail!

You leave Jack Burton alone

>>84394722
It's the anti- 'white action hero saves the day' movie, which were popular at the time. Like if John Wayne was in a Jackie Chan movie and didn't realise he was totally irrelevant because Jackie Chan was the hero. Carpenter nailed the satire with constant winks to the audience.

>>84394808
It made a lot more sense to me after I took a friend to see Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain
