Check. As for your review of Best of the Best: "James Earl Jones, Eric Roberts and the US karate team beat Koreans into kimchi." First off, it was a US Tae Kwon Do team. Secondly, your remark is a retarded attempt at humor, if not offensive. Movie rocked, though. Chris Penn was there too. Whatever happened to Rhillip Rhee... Big Trouble… and They Live in the same list. Check.

BTiLC is my all time favorite movie... and I do know a few things about good movies. It's not the greatest movie ever created, but it's damn good!

Big touble is great and brings back great memories from when it came out. The same for They Live. Take the movies for what they are. Corny, cheezy, funny as hell and great lines - "Ok, you people! Sit tight, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if we're not back by dawn... call the president." And of course Roddy Piper - "I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum." They are full of crap. Big touble is great and brings back great memories from when it came out. The same for They Live. Take the movies for what they are.

I agree with some of the movies on this list as being truly awful, i.e. Beastmaster & Best of the Best. But Commanod too? Make me sick, and want to cancel my Maxim subcription.

Don't know him, don't know much about him. The link up top should take you to the review in question, though. If not, check out the pull down menu on the left hand side. It lets pick from different reviews of the same film (or it should). Ha, that’s some other reviewer dude. Don’t know him, don’t know much about him.

Are you kiddin me? BTiLC is John Carpenter's best film not titled The Thing or Halloween. Brilliant genre-bending, genre-redefining script, a hero who doesn't realize he's really the sidekick, a top-notch cast enjoying themselves (Kurt Russell has never been better), suitably jaw-dropping action scenes (for 1986), plenty of deadpan, campy and/or black humor, and more quotable dialogue per minute than another other movie on that list. A review on EfIlmcritic.com (by some dude named Mel Valentin) lays it all out in greater detail. Check it out (the movie and the review, that is), if you haven't already. He says so and so do I (even if we are the same person on a good day). Big Trouble in Little China? Are you kiddin me? BTiLC is John Carpenter’s best film not titled The Thing or Halloween.
