CLIP DESCRIPTION:
While Jack (Kurt Russell) and Wang (Dennis Dun) are caught in a gang war, three sorcerers arrive.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Playing in a manner that can be conservatively described as larger than life, Kurt Russell plays a macho truck driver who agrees to go to the San Francisco airport and pick up his friend's (Dennis Dun) fiancee (Suzee Pai, freshly arrived from China. Suddenly, a gang of Chinatown toughs kidnap the girl right before Russell's eyes. After a wild chase sequence, Russell discovers that the girl has been abducted by a genuine, bonafide sorceror (James Hong), the ghost of a 3000 year old warlord. And that's just for starters.

I remember walking 3 miles to the dollar movie theater to see this when I was 12, no one in the theater, and it felt like I had all that movie greatness to myself...it was euphoric. Loved BTILC so much I dragged my mom along with me to see it a second time. Classic flick.
Thank you for your service.
Man , it was all worth it.
Good times.
I saw a lot of movies as a kid. This was a standout
And now it's a cult classic
Lightning's intro is still incredible to me to this day. Rain's ending expression is also golden.
'You are nowhere!'
Rain has a presence for sure 😂
So true. My wife cannot understand why I crack up each and every time Rain makes that facial expression.
It's funny because it's comical yet still threatening. If someone flashed Rain's facial expression at me, I'll probably leave.
I still quote this when I hear people ask where they are… You are nowhere!😅
straight facts
This is unironically an amazing martial arts/ dark fantasy movie. The stuntwork and choreography is just insane, the villains and heroes are all entertaining and interesting, and the fact that everybody EXCEPT ol' Jack Burton knows what's going on just makes it all better!
Jack is the Dale to Wang's Chip.
Tsui Hark was the original director of BTILC but then had to step down! John Carpenter stayed true to Hark's vision!
Reply
On a rainy 4th of July my mom took me to go see this almost 35 years later we still talk about it being one of the best movie theatre experiences ever
This movie inspired the Mortal Kombat series. John Carpenter is a living legend!
I was just saying the same on a Frank Dux Bloodsport vid. Jean Claude = Johnny Cage
Along with Enter the Dragon
Oh thats cool i didnt know that. I knew mortal kombat was partially inspired by enter the dragon but thats cool info.
Raidens win. Fatalities
En ésta peli sale sin lugar a dudas Raiden y Shang tsung
It's Kung Lao, Raiden, and Liu Kang.
Phil Miller
You know, you might be right !!!!
Cool...
Shang Shung too
Kung Lao , Fujin, Raiden.
Lo Pan can be considered to be Shang Tsung.
+Phil Miller also kan ra from killer instinct in his alternate costume is lo pan. and the recent reveal of kim wu has her stage as the scene from this clip
The back scratchers of death at 1:13 get me every single time.
😂😂😂
Oh MY Gawd! I did not find it cheesy back then haha. I thought its something cool like Claw of an Eagle
Look like Black Betty's iron claw but on sticks
@@Dr0dd 😆
🤣🤣🤣
About destroyed my VHS tape of this movie in 86-87 because of watching and rewinding it over and over just to see it again! Awesome memories.
This is the best film in the world.
I'll have to agree.
+Premises187 hope they remake this movie
but still can't top this one
Why would you hope such a horrible thing?
nafsiammara what
nafsiammara right but
1:10
Thunder: actual weapon
Rain: dual backscratchers
Lightning: hey look at my spinning forks!
💀😂😂
1:14 dudes breaks out back scratchers and fidget spinners.
lol
🤣🤣🤣
that what I thought too, but damm you already had the comment down
Lmfao
And lighting brings out a fan
The commentary track on this (and all of Carpenter’s collabs with Russell) is absolute gold. It’s just two best friends having a great time watching a movie. In this scene, when the storms flip to throw their kukri, Carpenter goes “and then they flip for some reason.” and Kurt Russell starts dying
"Don't look, Jack!"
"I already did!"
It's ok. Muddy street water can reverse the blinding effects of ancient Chinese magic.
Sorry I had to look 😂
@@adamsipione I understand your point and it's a good one, and I understand that it's a 4 year old comment, but sometimes it's ok if it's that simple.
Joss Whedon did it in Avengers and in Astonishing X-men, where all it took was a simple clunk on the head to reverse mind control.
First off, Lo Pan was not in his true form or full power.
Second, it was a simple spell.
Sometimes when someone is hysterical, not thinking right, or having an out of mind experience, all it takes is a slap.
Dont think of it as muddy water on the floor in an alley curing an ancient spell. Think of it as a shock to the system snapping one out of a "fairy glamor". Fairy glamors are the lowest form of spell, an illusion and easy to break. It was only a bright light and Lo Pan was a spectre, so in a way we can say Lo Pan wasn't even real, nor the blinding light. All you need to do is not look at medusa for her magic not to work.
Is it possible that was not a visually aggressive "make you blind" spell and was literally nothing more than just very bright light and all Jack needed was a moment to adjust his eyes?
"Don't look, Jack!"
"I already did!"
"Don't!!"
"I won't!!!"
This is one of the best ever films for me.As a kid I watched it countless times.I still watch it,never get bored.
Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrr get bored of this movie either
Let me tell you this story. It was year 2000 i think, i went to visit my brother (who lives far from where i live), and he presented me a friend of him that came to visit me to my house when i was like 6-7 years old...obviously i couldn't remember him. The first thing he said when he saw me was "when we visited you, you would not stop watching big troulbe in little china time and time again" .
Oh my god, same here. I was like 5 years old watching this over and over.
0:22. His face kills me every damn time 😂😂😂😂. It’s like he’s doing it sarcastically
Asians can make funny faces better than anyone
His face when Jack tries to knock him out twice is also fantastic
I was looking for someone to mention this lol. One reason I look this up but let’s not forget the sound effects to go with it haha… :20
0:20
My sis and l would laugh at that part
Even after watching this movie for years, I never knew that the Three Storms actually had names - Thunder, Rain, and Lightning. Thunder is the big muscled guy that blows up later in the movie, Rain is the skinny one who fights Wang later, and Lightning... well, you can probably guess which one is Lightning.
Was scrolling the comments for this exact explanation. And upon reading your comment, my reaction: 0:21
The guy on the right with the gun?
As a little kid I used to put a laundry basket on my head and walk around the neighborhood like the Three Storms trying to scare my friends....Yeah... they just looked at me like I was nuts. And rightfully so. I was only about 5 or 6 though.
LOL
you know i-
i cant same i didnt do the same goddamn thing tho
When I was 7, I put one really wide unused flower pot on my head. It broke within few minutes, as I tried various things they did XD
😂😂 oh dude😂😂😂😂
LMAO! that made my day, thank you!
Trivia for all the Mortal Kombat fans Raiden was based upon the lightning storm in Big Trouble In Little China. This movie is pure classic I was 4 when I first saw this and watched it almost every weekend for years I loved it so much along with the Goonies.
+Sega Sailor yeah I saw the making of Mortal Kombat. Cool little documentary. Raiden was based on the lightning storm in this movie, Kano was based on "Termanator", Lui Kang is based on Bruce Lee, Johnny cage is a Jean Claude Van Damme parody, Sonya was made as a needed female character, and they wanted an elemental factor in the game, two characters who are complete opposites of each other, fire and ice, hence Scorpion and Sub Zero. but on another note, this movie was a part of my childhood too. I wasn't born until 93 but this is one of my dad's all time favorites, along with predator and top gun. he's a pure 80's kid, and because of that I've seen those movies dozens of times, but hell I never got tired of them.
+Sega Sailor I've been saying that for years
liu kang yes like bruce lee in enter the dragon and bolo yeung , but in the best of the best phillip rhee when was young as don dragon wilson was more close, kano was terminator but since is a mercenary look robocop 1 the mercenary who kills murphy who was also a weapons trafic guy as kano and of course his hair litle bold, scorpion peoples say gosh rider only as fatality but also in karate kid 2 last fight the japanese guy look what he is wearing and the knife, sonya is ovious chyntia rothrock ,reptile as secret of the game do you remember the OLD alien series of V too many reptiles lol mk2 kung fu david carradine when was young his hat but in a movie of 007 there is a men who trow his hat as kung lao but a litle chuby jax there was a black figther in american ninja 2 they say jax comes from him besides he was special forces too in mk3 robots are a rip from predator kabal if you seen teen age mutant ninja turtles 2 the guy who figth crime with a hockey dress lol
Thats how old i was when i saw this in theaters when i was 4 and became one of my fave fantasy films and one of the movies that made me a Sci-fi/fantasy fan geek since
Raiden is a white guy though :(
What makes this a favorite is that we are lead up to this moment thinking of Jack Burton as the stereotype action hero when we realize he’s out of his element, wants nothing to do with Chinese mysticism, relatable to the regular guy, and while having a strong presence, doesn’t steal the show from the other characters. It’s a nicely crafted piece of cinema all in all.
I met Master Carter Wong and his wife when they came to The Water Margin Chinese Restaurant in Coleraine, Northern Ireland. He gave a demonstration and taught us Chefs some Kung Fu. He played the Exploding Storm aka Thunder.
I just love the lightning effects in this. They're so great.
OpenMawProductions I loved everything except how thunder died that was straight nasty
Nice special effects eh especialy inflating thunder eh?
@TheGreaterGood80 Wow, didn't know that. I love that after all these years, there's still more to learn about this classic. Thanks!
Especially for an 80s movie, this was not done digitally. 😉
Richard Edlund really was a pioneer at his craft when it came to these kind of effects.
I must have watched this movie 100 times growing up. It never got old.
My best friends older sister took us to see this that summer in 86' when we were 10, it was towards the end of it's run and I swear we were the only 3 people in the theater. I couldn't understand why, my friend and I loved it and when it came out on VHS we watched it over and over and over and over again.Still love this movie 37 years later.
A month ago i went to see die hard in theather , we were only 10 people , what a sick joke
1:45 the music in the background PERFECTLY matches the scene and what you’re seeing. It’s haunting. Mysterious. This film is a masterpiece.
Used to scare the crap out of me everytime I watched it.
We have a local theater that plays old movies and they let people make suggestions as to what movie they play next. I suggested Big Trouble in Little China and was kinda nervous because I thought nobody would show up. Not only was the theater packed but people applauded at the end.
Hands down, 1 of the best films of the 80s, Fact.
One of my favorite movies from my childhood, such a classic, still vivid as the first day, great piece of work of the master John Carpenter, along with "Escape from New York", definitely my favorites of his filmography.
Carlos Rodriguez Halloween too
1:44 makes me laugh every time.
I swear this is one of the only movies I can still watch over and over lol 31 one years later and it still never gets old! Plus it had a badass VHS cover art. 📼!!!!
Who would dislike this video? This is a bad ass scene.
Lo Pan's goons. 😄
@@davidbolha LOL
@@davidbolha 🤣
On a more positive note did anybody else enjoy the great directors commentary with Carpenter and Russel as much as I did? It's one of the better ones I've heard in a long time and they both deserve praise for making the effort to be on the DVD extras legitimately instead of just some gimmick or something else that is a waste. Anybody who enjoys the film should give a listen, it's beyond entertaining and interesting.
Three guys with hats: Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Raiden;
Two of the truck: Sub-zero and Johnny Cage;
Damsels in distress: Li Mei and Sonya;
Evil Sorcerer: Shang Tsung 😅
They don't make awesome movies like this anymore. Sad.
Love the 80's
It was the best decade for movies.
Awesome movies and music, terrible fashion and home decor.
@@mbogucki1 STFU..fashoin was GREAT...
@@mbogucki1 fashion is now back :-)) all retro sports gear
@@mbogucki1 Terrible fashion? Sorry but 90s grunge wear was worse
0:21 When you finally found someone who stole your pizza
Lmao
How about when ya find the person who took the last fortune cookie
Or the Chinese lady at the Chinese restaurant next time she sees you from not leaving a tip the last time.
That got me laughing more than was supposed to XD
Hahahaha hilarious
Thunder at 1:09 is so badass. The whole movie is so fast and exciting from start to finish, it never slows down. This clip, along with the preceding fight between Chang Sing and Wing Kong, was always one of my faves in the whole show.
Kurt Russell movies has always been inspiration for video games. This movie inspired Mortal Kombat. His other movie, Escape from New York inspired Metal Gear.
You know, this movie was the first thing I thought of when I first saw MORTAL KOMBAT :-D
same here
+Georgiacatcrimson three storms were ed boons inspiration for Raiden
I wondered why this guy wasn't used instead of that white guy who seemed misplaced.
saaame
Same here! I was extatic when I saw Raiden!
Carter Wong(Thunder) is awesome! I've always watch Shaolin Kung Fu movies back when I was young and most of them star Carter Wong. He's BAD ASS!
Big bad spikey,
Do you know what kind of weapon on 1:12 that Carter wong (thunder god) used in the movie Big Trouble in Little China is?
@@kenyahall2743 they look like a modified version of a Shaolin weapon known as emei piercers
This movie has the most badass soundtrack of all time.
So does The Golden Child.
1:12 OH GOD BACK SCRATCHERS!!!!!!
I have seen this movie about a dozen times, never gets old!!!
1:44. That bonk gets me every time. 😂😂😂
"Lord Raiden you honor us with your presence" and also did one of those guys have back scratchers for weapons?
Thunder there is so permanently grouchy and angry. When he finally inflates and explodes explodes it's all cabbage leaves.
Who else used to get a bed sheet, a basket lid and a boomerang as a kid?? Tell me im not the only one
+Lava91point0
guilty as charged ........
hey.. I played along with my cousins......
I admit it and my mom would be complaining, "I could of sworn I left the laundry basket right here."
I used to put on my dads large sombrero hat and get the long barbecue forks he had stored in the shed
haha i done it too' people thought i was mental.
I was never that inventive as a kid (wish I was though, you had the awesome idea of a basket lid) but I DID mimic the moves (particularly the drawn out and harsh exhale of the first of the Storms).
One of the best most incredible, stylistic and memorable scenes in cinema history.
I would’ve welcomed the guy with the back scratchers.... they look absolutely delightful.
Literally one of the coolest scenes of all time.
My dad showed me this movie as a little kid, i loved this movie and from then on i loved his movie choices
one of my favourite movies. its so good. jacks one liners are class.
You leave Jack Burton alone!
For an early nineties kid like me who have watched this movie and this part in particular a thousand times, every time I whatch it is beatiful, the feeling when this popped up in some channel, cable tv childhood was awesome!
These 3 deserved they own spin off frfr lightning is my favorite, but I love the fact they can all fly
Thats 1986 and for some reason DECADES later they couldnt do proper effects in mortal kombat movie
Tabs T Decades?
Mortal kombat 1 was 1992
I hope you only mean annihilation
@@MicWars mortal kombat the videogame was in 1992, the movie was in 1995
As a kid this was one of my favourite movies , the good old days
It was around this part of the movie where my girlfriend asks me "What is happening right now? I'm so confused." I told her "It doesn't even matter just watch it." Anyway when it was over she said that was a really fun movie yet she still wasnt sure what it was about.
That was my experience too. God, what a great movie
Like a roller coaster ride just enjoy it don't think too much lol
0:21 , the most epic look in history
they just don't make movies like they used to
@Ryan Jones na new movies are garbage
This movie just has this strange hold over me.......love everything about it. Kim Katrall was smoking hot back in the day too
Don't forget Suzee Pai she was fine
The prostitute Jack saw was right up there in hotness as well...
Now she's post wall trash. 😄
This movie was amazing to watch when I was a kid. The Electricity dude was my favorite.
One of the best movies I’ve ever watched, takes me back to my childhood.
Carter Wong as "Thunder". I loved him in the "18 Bronze Men" movie. Old martial arts classic.
I really do feel sorry for the kids today... They'll never know what it means to watch a movie. To get lost in it and want to be a part of it to really feel that magic like we did back when great films like this came out...the 80s man...
Don't feel sorry for them..they get to have completely new and different experiences and streaming won't always dominate. We may see a new era of theater in the future.
I'm glad I still experienced this movie in such an intense and magical way when i was like 7 or 8 years old (i was born in 2001). John Carpenter is the man
I dont feel sorry for them. My first experience was a commercial laden late night TV showing that never said the movie’s name. It took me YEARS to figure out the name.
This movie is a classic.
Imagine you have to fight 3 Raidens at the same time and then you run over Shang Tsung...
lol 😂
😂😂😂
Kurt russel’s finest work 👍⭐️
I love this movie. One of my favorite movies of all time.
I finally realize where the inspiration for creating Raiden and shang tsung came from.
I may be the last horse to cross the finish line, but... I just realized how indicative the way in which they appear is of what element of a storm they are. Although it's cut from this clip, the first storm literally flies in (Wind. Also, he fills up with air at the end of the film and explodes.) The second one falls straight down like and with rainwater. And the last one descends from the sky with a bolt. So cool!
Also, small side note: As a kid I always wondered what was going on @1:13 because the tape was a fullscreen version of the film and you couldn't see most of his hands.
I never understood why one of his weapons were two metal back scratchers?!i I picked up two of them from the Asian market, put one on each of my hand, and this movie was the first thing that popped in my head. I used two plastic forks on each hand when i was growing up trying to make them spin on my palm.
Thunder, Rain and Lightening sure are a trio of super villains. I'll always remember Carter Wong, Peter Kwong (whom I also remember as Tommy Tong in The Golden Child) and James Pax for their amazing performance in this epic movie. A favourite from my childhood.
one of the greatest movie ever....
Didn't show all of Thunder's intro, that's the best part.
The other two main characterz are Johnny Cage and Lui Kang.
That's "Bloodsport"
xPUNISHER84x I waz refering to the main protagonists of Big Trouble in Little China Movie. Smh😑
Enter the Dragon + Big Trouble in Little China = Mortal Kombat
+Blood Sport
They took a Bloodsport digitized game that Van Damme turned down and took inspiration from their favorite Kung fu flicks to revamp the dead game into a new IP. The rest is history.
Big Trouble in Little China! The real live action Mortal Kombat!
THE MOVIE of the eightee's for me...still insane 😍😱
1:13 LMAO what's he gonna do? Scratch my back? That's the most ridiculous weapon I've ever see- oh, spoke too soon.
Oh, the spinning forks made sense.
I used to think that same thing when I was younger and saw it. Then learned variations on weaponry and learned those were probably razors or spear points on the ends.
Only those who grew up in the 80s ~ early 90s know why this movie is a cult classic and legendary. Milennials will never get it.
Always crack up when the guy with the spinning blades starts screaming.
Kurt was my hero than!!!🤣🤣
I still love this movie, never get tired of watching it.
When I was a kid I used to watch this movie alot and Predator and also Fist of legend. Good old dayys
"There's only one thing Jack Burton has to say about this (who's that!!) JACK BURTON! ME!" One of the best lines in the movie 🤣
Carpenter really made some good movies in the 70s and 80s.
Just ordered the Blu Ray of Big Trouble in Little China. Loved this movie.
Dang... 30 Years ago...
John Carpenter's magnum opus...
This movie is perfect, not being ironic, I remember as a kid, and even now watching, the effects, clothes, characters, the script... They don''t make good quality creative stuff like this nowadays. This movie is gold!
I saw this movie when I was 8 years old so that was 1988 and it was on HBO. I thought it was the most bizarre and coolest movie I had ever seen.
0:21 lol
The best movie of all time.
This movie was so awesome when it first came out and its still awesome now.
1:12 when bae says can I scratch her back
Thanks to this movie and blood sport we have one of the most popular video game "Mortal Kombat"
The 3 storms look especially the hats they wear were inspired by the masters of death in the movie Shogun Assassin (Lone Wolf and Cub)
Oh,「Shogun Assassin」(子連れ狼) very cool!
Nobody:
Anime characters in fights: 0:21
I love the robot sounding movements they make before throwing the knives.
Was this the inspiration for Raiden? lol
Yes
Yes, it obviously was.
For almost everything in MK.... now seeing
I don't think so, Raiden is the god of thunder in asian mythology.
your parents didn't send you to school obviously

Internet User Hello
Internet User Well you know, it's one of those nights where Im bored off my ass and just scowering the Tube. What are you up to? How was your day?
Internet User Lebowski you say? Ive never heard of it. Nothing but a little Googlin wont hurt. Sounds like youre living the life. Look at you.
Internet User Those are the realest words Ive ever read. I will die with those words in mind. How's the ole lady? She treating you good?
I was 7 and lived in the Bay Area when this movie came out. These three guys were the biggest badasses at the time, we all would "fly" around the playground doing fake martial arts moves. The styling and choreography were amazing and they chose the best actors imaginable to make a strong impression. I still love this movie.
My brother stuck a basket in his head and started to act like thunder, he was doing all the moves till I shot him in the nads with a low power BB gun. I honestly didn’t expect to hit him but I did. He fell over and while doubled over says “ that’s not how it’s supposed to work”. I replied with “ ancient religion and hokey moves are no match for a gun”. We still laugh about it almost 30 years later
Kurt Russell was funny as hell in this movie with his sarcasm
