Slightly off-topic, but…what is the deal with James Hong? He looked ‘late middle-age’ when he was on Hawaii Five-O (the good one), and he looks not a whole lot older now. He definitely doesn’t strike me as the kind of guy who has been having a lot of facelifts, or working out and living clean.
He should have an infomercial to sell his men’s anti-aging skincare line. You’d totally believe he had a secret formula.
Sacrificing Virgins - did you not see Big Trouble in Little China?
…ahem…yes, yes I did…but all I can remember in my dotage is the scene where Kurt Russell is pinned into the ‘Captain Kirk Defense’ by the toppling supernatural warrior.
Since you brought it up - James Hong has aged better than all of his co-stars in that movie. But how do I lure a chatboard’s worth of incels to my backyard sacrificial altar?
Saw this a couple of weeks ago
Kurt Russell is still looking damn fine
It was his look for Hateful Eight, and within the context of the movie the facial hair looked pretty good 
He kept it on for the American Heroes Channel show “Gunslingers” when discussing Wyatt Earp, which was kinda funny to watch.
Call yourself Peter Thiel?
Didn’t work so well for her
Except in the movie, one of Ingrid Pitt’s all time best
When? I think were there…
It’s falling right now!! etc.

I met him once - he was in town to speak at a film festival that was showing the then newly released director’s cut of Blade Runner. From what I heard later, LOTS of people met him, bought drinks for him, and got properly sloshed in his reportedly excellent company, so my encounter was relatively modest, but a happy memory…
He pulled into the gas station I was working at, driving a rental jeep of some kind, leaned out the window and said, very politely:
“Sorry, which way to the Blahblah hotel?”
“Just take a right here and straight up the hill… HEY! Rutger Hauer!”
“Hehe, yes. But I’m lost.”
… silence for a few seconds …
“LIKE TEARS IN RAIN!!!” (Man I was pleased with myself for thinking of that. Instead of twenty minutes later, as usually happens )
Polite embarrassed acknowledgement on his part, followed by a “thank you” and he was gone.
What a gent.
Yes, “over the top” is that genre. I wouldn’t quite call it splatstick, but it’s close.
My favorite parts were the Plague and when the guy had on his ice skates:
“Dude, you’ll ruin your skates, man.”
“I ruin everything!”
I am not in the least surprised.
Oh man, Split Second I didn’t think anyone else saw that let alone loved it like I do.
Oh yes… what a great show that was…
