Upcoming Podcast On Fire Specials

[Knetan]

hey,

have a really bad looking poster of either of those I think.

[Knetan]

hey,

so naturally we need to do shows on the big uns as well. Jackie, Chow, Sammo.

I know how I would like to hear a special or two about Jackie but let me hear your suggestion about structure, topics of discussion within a Jackie special.

[tonsofun]

would be nice to get a special deicated to his work in the 80's and maybe a second dedicated to the 90's and beyond

[Drunken Master]

Don't forget the seventies. The Lo Wei and Seasonal films. I know the films he made under Lo Wei often get bad press, but some were quite good IMO. Just as good as a lot of other films flying about during that period anyway.

[Lantern Jaw]

Lets not forget the dark times. Cannonball Run, The Protector. I can see it all now..."When good stars go bad, a pof special"

[Drunken Master]

The Cannonball Run is a classic! Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLouise, Farah Fawcett, Dean Martin, Roger Moore, Adrienne Barabeau, Jamie Farr, Sammy Davis Jr, Peter Fonda and the great Jack Elam. A fantastic cast in an action packed comedy romp with speeding cars. I will have nothing bad said against that movie. Oh yeah. Jackie was in it playing a Japanese guy too!

[Stoo]

[Drunken Master]

Yes. Two Japanese guys.

[Tom K.W.]

Classic, completely disregard the fact Jackie's in it everytime I watch it and just focus on the madcap cameo game, because I'd be dissapointed with the fights otherwise!

[Lantern Jaw]

The other guy was Michael Hui?! ...What a pairing! I need to watch that again

[Knetan]

hey,

was it Jackie with Hui and Richard Kiel or am I remembering that wrong. How was Jackie's fight/s?

[Lantern Jaw]

[Drunken Master]

[Knetan]

hey,

good suggestions about the special. Gonna read through and ponder. Don't wanna do too much of a biographical show, not in depth anyway. Feels more fun to give the key movies a good runthrough.
