Glad you dug the movies. Regarding Decascos, if you haven't seen Only the Strong please please please do. It's like Dangerous Minds, but with capoeira and a villain who looks like a steroidal Adrian Paul in a vajazzled vest. So much fun, and you'll have the music in your head for decades afterwards.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867827164062216789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-64416758728570720192016-06-03T05:51:59.156-05:002016-06-03T05:51:59.156-05:00I think for 90´s Dacascos, there is nothing better...I think for 90´s Dacascos, there is nothing better than "Crying Freeman", directed by Christophe Gans, who later collaborated again with Dacascos on the equally great "Brotherhood of the wolf".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13035940865143847684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-41165236302025980052016-06-03T04:58:28.052-05:002016-06-03T04:58:28.052-05:003 great choices, you have good taste Sir,

I have always lov...I totally agree with RAPID FIRE. I have always loved that film and have felt that it does not get its due. <br /><br />In April I was having dinner with composer Christopher Young [discussing my book SCORED TO DEATH, available for preorder of Amazon ;-) *shameless name-drop & plug] and I said to him, "You know Chris, you scored one of my favorite movies?" He said, "Really, which one?" I replied "Rapid Fire." And he said, "You like that film?" ...I laughed. <br /><br />Apparently, there were some issues with the recording session that soured him a bit on the experience, but he had a very nice story about Brandon Lee and wonderful things to say about him.<br /><br />But another 90s action film that gets zero attention and I personally love is 1998's KNOCK OFF, starring Jean Claude Van Damme and Rob "comic-relief" Schneider and directed by the great Tsui Hark. That movie is totally nuts and I don't know anybody else that has ever seen it! Van Damme was a pioneer in the 90s, working with some of China's finest directors...like John Woo with Hard Target (another amazing film that Dion and I covered on the SNMS podcast awhile back...check it out if you haven't yet).<br /><br />And God, speaking of "nuts," if you guys want a crazy action movie from the 90s, with some Asian flavor, you need to see THE ENFORCER (1995) starring Jet Li & the late Anita Mui. That movie is absolutely wild. I don't know the original title, but Li plays a cop that is deep undercover and the kid that was also in NEW LEGEND OF SHAOLIN with him is also in it and they both kick some major ass. Definitely worth checking out.<br /><br />Anyway, great list Patrick. There are more than a few films on here that I have not thought about in a VERY long time and need to revisit.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />- BlakeSaturday Night Movie Sleepovers Podcasthttp://saturdaysleepovers.podwits.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-36039208547475893802016-06-02T22:24:54.525-05:002016-06-02T22:24:54.525-05:00Showdown in Little Tokyo for the win.Showdown in Little Tokyo for the win.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328614962363648188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-57246842801618621832016-06-02T22:24:52.080-05:002016-06-02T22:24:52.080-05:00Plus I think Another 48hrs holds the record for &q...Plus I think Another 48hrs holds the record for "Most Glass Broken in a Movie"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328614962363648188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-1006661737723185632016-06-02T22:24:46.928-05:002016-06-02T22:24:46.928-05:00Plus I think Another 48hrs holds the record for &q...Plus I think Another 48hrs holds the record for "Most Glass Broken in a Movie"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328614962363648188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-33384651683281859142016-06-02T22:22:45.727-05:002016-06-02T22:22:45.727-05:00Showdown in Little Tokyo for the win.Showdown in Little Tokyo for the win.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328614962363648188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-73626143032802360652016-06-02T18:57:11.895-05:002016-06-02T18:57:11.895-05:00I will always be ride or die for Trespass.I will always be ride or die for Trespass.AJ Mullerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06987730338809078456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-82021812756268115252016-06-02T18:34:13.937-05:002016-06-02T18:34:13.937-05:00Naw, it's crappy either way :) Ice-T's so...Naw, it's crappy either way :) Ice-T's songs for Ricochet, New Jack City and obviously Colors destroys the Tresspass song.
