    Inferno

    Inferno

    Yojimbo by way of Van Damme and directed by Avildsen (Karate Kid, Rocky). Mystic, confusing, and hot, Will and Matt get down and crazy with ventriloquist acts, ghosts, and motorcycles - bonus: saran wrapping bodies!

    DISCLAIMER: Language and Spoilers!

    INFERNO
    dir. John G. Avildsen
    starring: Jean-Claude Van Damme; Danny Trejo; Pat Morita

    Do or Die

    Do or Die

    Will and Matt just couldn't get enough of Andy Sidaris, so let's visit the first appearance of Kane! (Played by Pat Morita of Karate Kid fame... later to be replaced by generic white guy...) This has all the staples of an Andy Sidaris film... hardly a plot, a lot of lukewarm love scenes, a few characters that are way too cartoonish to be real... plus Erik Estrada from CHiPS... (this is legit true... and not a joke... Erik Estrada from CHiPS is in this...) 

    DISCLAIMER: Language and Spoilers!

    DO OR DIE
    dir. Andy Sidaris
    starring: Pat Morita; Erik Estrada; Dona Speir

    In Memoriam (James Caan): Honeymoon in Vegas / Top 5 Love Triangle Movies

    In Memoriam (James Caan): Honeymoon in Vegas / Top 5 Love Triangle Movies

    Our third In Memoriam installment features James Caan. We've done Elf already, so we stick with another somewhat underrated choice, Honeymoon in Vegas. This has been a longtime favorite for Pete and Brad and Caan's performance opposite Nicolas Cage is a big reason why.  Also starring Sarah Jessica Parker, and featuring roles by Pat Morita, Peter Boyle, Tony Shalhoub, and a young Bruno Mars, it's a star-studded affair.

    Listen to hear if it still holds up or if we felt like jumping out of a plane. Then stick around for our lists of Love Triangle movies. With Vegas and Indecent Proposal, these types of movies were all the rage in the early 90's. What else makes our lists? Time to be a fool and rush in to this fun installment of PCY.

    1984: The Karate Kid / Top 5 TV

    1984: The Karate Kid / Top 5 TV

    The finale for 1984 is Pete's choice, The Karate Kid. This pop culture phenomenon is one our favorites and one of the most perfect movies ever made in our opinion. There is so much to say about class, bullying, self-control, and more, and we cover it all. Pat Morita was nominated for an Oscar, but how do we feel about Ralph Macchio and William Zabka? Or Elisabeth Shue?

    With all the sequels and reboots, this film started a pop culture sensation that has never left the consciousness.  And now we have Cobra Kai keeping it alive. We delve into that series a little, and also use it as a starting point for our favorite TV of 1984. You're all right, PCY! Thanks a lot! We did it! Cue the credits.

    Season 9: Episode 2- The Reflecting Skin (Featuring Carmelita Valdez McKoy )

    ...about Even Cowgirls Get The Blues (1993)

    ...about Even Cowgirls Get The Blues (1993)

    Gus Van Sant’s adaptation of Tom Robbins’ “Even Cowgirls Get The Blues” is generally regarded as a failure, an opinion Andras (who has read most of Robbin’s books) shares. Bryan (who has not read the book) loves this film, which leads to a conversation about the responsibility (or lack thereof) directors have to their source material.

    Written & Directed by Gus Van Sant. Based upon “Even Cowgirls Get The Blues” by Tom Robbins. Starring Uma Thurman, Rain Phoenix, John Hurt, Pat Morita, Victoria Williams, Lorraine Bracco, Sean Young, Carol Kane, Buck Henry, Keanu Reeves, Crispin Glover, Ken Kesey, William S. Burroughs, Ed Begley Jr., Angie Dickinson & Roseanne Arnold

    How is the world wrong about Wrongness

    From Bryan Connolly: So much hate is dumped on this movie. Undeserved! It’s weird. It’s funny. Maybe it’s not like the book. Good. Read the book. Enjoy that for what it is. Now lets enjoy this movie that has Pat Morita as a sexy guru!

    The Karate Kid (1984)

    Join us as we review the 1984 classic (FOR REAL!), The Karate Kid.  We discuss Elizabeth Shue's sun squint, how many of Brad's relationships have ended because of video games, and Sean delivers A+ imitations for the second episode in a row.  Oh, and all the karate grunts you can handle.  Stick around to the end to hear a sure-fire 1985 hit if Sean had released in in 1985...at the age of 9...

    The Karate Kid Episode

    The Karate Kid Episode

    MJ thinks it's about karate instructors fighting a war of ideals with child proxy soldiers. 

    Darcy thinks it's about how America whitewashes its perpetuation of atrocities such as the internment of people of Japanese descent during WWII.

    Katie thinks it's about patrilineal hegemony due to the truly astonishing number of daddies.

    FIGHT!

    More Than Miyagi

    More Than Miyagi

    A look at the new documentary film, More Than Miyagi-The Pat Morita Story. This Kevin Derek project provides a look at the iconic and beloved Japanese-American actor and comedian who brought The Karate Kid's central character to life. Pat Morita was known for his role as the wise Japanese Sensei of the 1980's blockbuster, The Karate Kid, but he was much more than this in real life. He was a pioneer actor and comedian, forging the way for other Asian-American stars at a time when Hollywood sunned Asian-Americans. His complex life and mind are the subject of this endearing and funny look at this memorable man. Marc Zirogiannis provides his thoughts on the film, the man, and his place in the Cobra Kai world. This film has shot up the iTunes documentary charts since its release in early February, 2021.
