Just a man. A man that thinks The Killer is better than Hard Boiled.
I watched THE PROSECUTOR (2025) last night. Easily Donnie Yen’s finest work as a director. I absolutely loved it.
Do NOT go in expecting Flashpoint or Raging Fire. This is a legal thriller with a few action sequences. The action is amazing though. It feels fresh and more age appropriate for Donnie.

Video evidence of my cat expressing her distaste for Sammo Hung films.
Maybe she’s more of a Jimmy Wang Yu gal.

#NowWatching Kingdom (2019)

I’v been promising myself to watch these for years but I’ve just never gotten around to it.
I’m kicking off 2025 right by finally getting to them.

Legendary martial artist, actor, stuntman, stunt coordinator and, at one time, bodyguard to the stars, Richard Norton, turns 75 today.
Norton needs to be given his flowers. He’s always had an amazing on screen presence.
Here he is whooping Andy Lau and Cynthia Rothrock in Magic Crystal (1986).

Todays #physicalmedia pickups are the Terrifier 3 4K (I despise steelbooks but have the other two in steelbooks) and the 4K of Bones and All.

#NowWatching Jingle All the Way (1996)

This one’s a first-time watch for me. I’m not sure it’s considered a Christmas classic, but I’m trying to squeeze in a few Chrimbo movies I haven’t seen.

When it comes to martial arts focused Chinese dramas, ATV’s Blood Debt may have the crispest fight choreography.
Even with undercranking it looks amazing. Just good old fashioned shapes.
There are loads of fights scattered throughout, too. Definitely one for genre fans to seek out.

#JustWatched Carry-On (2024)

I absolutely LOVED this! A tension filled thriller with Die Hard 2-lite vibes and wonderful twists and turns. The cast is fantastic and it had be gripped the entire run time. It may be one of my favourites if the year. They don’t make ‘em like this anymore.

My cheeky little addition to #LetterboxdFriday.

A pretty solid run, even if I didn’t like Heretic nearly as much as I’d hoped.
A Different Man is stuck in my noggin. Lots to think about with that one. And not just Sebastian Stan’s knob.

Today’s #physicalmedia has been a long time coming. The new 4K mediabook of THE ROUNDUP: PUNISHMENT.
Saw a janky-subtitle-having rip of this that barely made sense, so I’m looking forward to actually understanding the plot this time around. Oh yeah, and that slaps. I’m pumped for the slaps.

See a butt, post a butt 🍑

Today’s #physicalmedia pickups are the brand new 4K’s of The Good, the Bad, the Weird and Demolition Man from Arrow, and some saucy, violent CAT III deliciousness - Horrible High Heels from Massacre Video.

Last year I struggled with the existential crisis of having Billie Eilish as my most listened to artist. This year, I stand strong as a hip hop head. Nothing but rap music, baby.

As for my top 5 songs, you can ignore those. They are equally as embarrassing as the Billie Eilish thing.

Today’s #physicalmedia pickup is the chunky new 4K limited edition (4 discs!) of Godzilla Minus One. It also includes Godzilla Minus Colour which I haven’t seen yet.

For the last few months I’ve been trying to construct my “Top 10 Fave Films” list. I’ve been struggling. This is what I have so far…

Hong Kong cinema fans! Diabolik DCD has the German media book of Angel Terminators. If you want one, hurry up. Those things sell quickly.

#NowWatching The Sentimental Swordsman (1977)

I’ve never seen this one. Love Ti Lung and Derek Yee so it should be an easy watch.
December 1, 2024 at 8:30 PM
If you were a villain, who would you be?

I just think I’m a “I’m gonna find her and I’m gonna hurt her” kinda guy. Right guys? Guys?

#NowWatching Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

Convinced my wife to watch this in an attempt to show her just how good it is. It’s unfairly shit on.
Spielberg directs the fuck out of it and it’s an impeccable action adventure.
