@cineronin Filipino cinema is missing, lots of classics from the past and present

@DufresneTalks @axaxia92 Nobody beats Connery, sorry. Agree or disagree.

@TEOMWAIKI @RealEmirHan GOLDENEYE, TOMORROW NEVER DIES, and THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH are all great. Moore has more bad movies as Bond though

[Tony Gloria @MindDepth01]

@RealEmirHan Brosnan should only be ashamed of DIE ANOTHER DAY because his overall run as Bond was great

School of Fire (1988)

[Timeless Films @axaxia92]

Not GoldenEye, not Casino Royale...
But The World Is Not Enough is the true pinnacle of Pierce Brosnan's work! 🔥
Brilliant action, a clever script, a captivating Elektra King, and one of the best plot twists in the series.

Flashpoint shows some of the most underrated elements of Donnie Yen’s action direction which is the rhythm and timing of his choreography and that he knows exactly when to slow things down and build to a furious violent crescendo.

@Captain9ice @LeoSteve14 You certainly love attention, that's for sure. Enjoy it

[Tony Gloria @MindDepth01]

@Captain9ice @LeoSteve14 Also unlike Jet Li, Donnie transcended to practical fighting styles while growing up on the US. So he's definitely superior as far as real fighting goes

[Tony Gloria @MindDepth01]

@Captain9ice @LeoSteve14 Donnie was taught taolu wushu by his mother at the age of 4 and continued with it up until the age of 20. He went to Beijing Wushu Academy at the age of 18 and received training from Wu Bin, the same coach that molded Jet Li into the man he is today. Jet never taught anyone 🤣

Most of y’all don’t recognize how fucking good Throw Down is.

🚨BREAKING: Japan just went full sweep: illegal immigrants are being tracked down, rolled up, and shipped out at record speed.

They’re literally calling it “sushi rapping deportations.”

(It sounds like a joke, it really isn’t).

The Japanese people reject globalism.

On a higher level this fight inspired many of us that a non-Chinese could work himself into Hong Kong action. But on a lower level I never watched this on repeat the way I watched First Strike or New Police Story's finale on repeat. Boxing gloves, even MMA gloves, reduce movement options, yet the flurry of attacks reduces the impact. The kicks are great, but they're tit for tat and not as domineering. It feels that everything Brad does, Jackie has an answer that's less out of the box and more "I can do that too".

What never felt right was the entire "Let's just be happy" gag, inspired by some packaging Jackie's character finds in the location. I don't wanna get too tabloid-like, but the year before Gorgeous, he had an affair with Elaine Ng. The entire "just be happy" guise always felt like a projection, and I never bought it, but now it makes sense at least. Jackie always had interesting ways to turn fights, but this was hack.

I'm not dissing my hero, I swear. I had the tiniest of fame in the early 2010s, and with that came literally dozens of opportunities to ruin my life, get an STD, destroy my marriage, say something that would get me killed. I have no idea how anyone would navigate moderate fame, let alone global fame like Jackie. When I was going through rough patches, my decisions were also less-than-creative, more projection than anything. It's super hard to create an interest setup and resolution to a fight scene; most people do it terribly. Jackie had done it flawlessly for two decades, so for him to slip up and make an otherwise technically great fight less-than-spectacular doesn't soil his record at all. It just shows that he's human like all of us. He's still my hero and always will be.
