Executive Decision is a great movie. Its one of the best action movies of all-time, IMO, because of how it keeps you guessing after killing off a big-name so early on.
Easily the best channel of the "so bad it's good" section of youtube. Redlettermedia is good, but my god does Rich Evans laugh get so fucking irritating, and anytime I find myself watching too much of them, they start to come across as pretentious(which isn't ENTIRELY their fault, but sometimes they do seem to take themselves too seriously)
@@venomous6593 Jean Claude Van Damme fights a terrorist who's dressed in the Pittsburgh Penguins mascot costume. The movie is stupid as hell and super entertaining for it!
Just want to point out that the guy who wrote and directed Baazi didn't make another movie for 6 years, but his next film 'Lagaan', was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and won awards at the Berlin, European and Locarno Film Festivals. Moral of the story: if at first you fail, keep trying.
...it just now occurred to me that 'McGruber' is a combination of John McClane and Hans Gruber, and all it took was hearing the names McClane and Gruber said eight dozen times.
Fun fact: the F-117 Nighthawk isn't actually a fighter jet, despite the "F" designation. The Nighthawk is strictly a bomber, as it has no onboard radar, and no capability to carry air-to-air missiles, and no cannon or gun, either. Definitely a minor detail in an otherwise brilliant video. Love your work, man!
They labeled it a fighter officially because the design made it more fitting to be piloted by fighter pilots, who's egos couldn't handle being told to fly a bomber. Or something like that.
Gary Oldman just makes everything he's in that much better. It usually takes me a minute to recognize him, given he looks wildly different in each film. Sure, some are easier than others to suss out, but seriously, I always enjoy whatever he does, even if I don't the rest of the movie that much.
I have met Steven Segal before but the funny thing is it was when I was getting Danny Trejo"s autograph. They were sitting at the same table in a bar. I walked up to both told Danny I was a huge fan of his work. I asked for an autograph (which I stiil have) Trejo thanked me; we shook hands and I walked away barely acknowledging Segal. Funny but true story.
@@jesseowenvillamor6348 Nah he deserves it. The reason I didn't care about meeting Segal was because I had learned what type of person he is. Just Google "Steven Segal s*xual misconduct" and see what I mean. He is also a bully to co-stars and stuntmen behind the scenes. A legendary stuntman named Gene LeBelle once guillotine choked Segal until he passed out and pissed himself because Segal was not pulling his punches while choreographing a scene. Also his martial art aikido is useless in an actual fight and his "acting" skills suck. Bullies and women predators SHOULD be ridiculed and exposed, in my humble opinion.
Taking of Beverly Hills 41:51 - did that not get hurt by the collapse of Orion? The behind the scenes stuff on that movie is pretty interesting, the production built a huge chunk of replica city in the desert of Mexico - then just blew it up! The scene with Branscombe Richmond's mulleted bad guy chasing the hero around firing a flame thrower out a pick up makes it worth the effort to track it down alone.
Fantastic! I worked at a cinema when Turbulence was released and it sold 26 tickets, all of whom clearly walked away with the memory of watching Ray Liotta do whatever he fancied.
Oliver Harper turned me on to this channel... and I now have a new drug. I can't get enough. Highly entertaining. I love the dry cheeky humor and I looooove the nostalgia feels I'm getting. I worked in video stores all through the '90's so I was familiar with most of these D-grade titles (which were very popular rentals with our customers, believe it or not), but had not thought of them in so long. Now I have tons of new flicks added to my Must Watch (again) list. Thank you so much for such a great fun ride. Cheers!
Interesting Fact: In The Detective, there is a scene set in a cafe or bar. A group of people enters and walk past Frank Sinatra. One of them is a young Bruce Willis.
Panna Rittikrai had quite a long history of doing crazy stunts by the time he got involved in Ong Bak. He headed a stunt team in the 80's and 90's who made a lot of ultra low budget action movies. One of the members of his team was Tony Jaa, who he put in Ong Bak and also recycled a lot of his old stunts and ideas into that movie. If you want to see some raw and crazy stunts I recommend his "original" Born to Fight from the mid 80's.
The hero of "Nothing Last Forever" is a "geriatric cynic", and the tone and motivation of the characters is very different, but all of the major action set pieces, including jumping off the building with a firehose, climbing through the ventilation, jumping inside the elevator shaft using his machine gun to hold himself, and the fall at the end. The novel is so similar it's like the darkest timeline version of Die Hard.
A pre Die Hard Die Hard in a building: an episode of The Equalizer made and released over 2-3 years prior to Die Hard. A terrorist group led by Detective Monk's Tony Sholboub take over a building during a wedding ceremony. Among the guests is McCall - a retired spec ops commando who doesn't show his cards and plots on eliminating the terrorists and liberating the building. One of the best episodes of The Equalizer
I'm surprised you didn't mention that when Arnold was offered the role, it was going be a sequel to Commando with him reprising the role of John Matrix, with the Holly character originally being his now grown-up adult daughter as she was in the book. Also, Commando and Diehard 2 both refer to writer Steven de Souza's fictional South American country Val Verde. Meaning they take place in the same universe. He has a pet theory that Predator also takes place in Val Verde.
Actually my 2 favourite Die Hard copycats are the Peter Hymes Sudden Death and the Star trek the next generation episode Starship Mine which is really fun and kinda showed where Patrick Stewart would go in the films as an action man.
Man I always felt Ken Wahl should of been way bigger. Every time I watch The Wanderers I always think he just has that leading man vibe about him. Haven't seen the The taking of Beverly Hills however but I will be now. Thanks for showing that.
I think one of the great mysteries will forever be what happened and what could have happened with Ken Wahl. He was also in a movie shot around the same time but released later called The Favor where he was the sexy alternative to the quiet safe option of.. Brad Pitt. That's how high the higher-ups in Hollywood were on his potential at one point. My summary theory is that he coasted on natural ability and metabolism as long as one could before injury and alcoholism took him down without hope of a Brad Pitt style comeback. But I'm sure there's a deeper dive to be made.
Jesus u must have one hell of a movie collection, I’ve only seen Air Force one , passenger 57 & executive decision oh and die hard obviously great work mate
One of the few times these days that CZcams actually recommends me a channel that's quality. Great stuff, man, really enjoying all these videos and insights to some of these films that went below my radar.
Several years ago, My mom and I were on the same flight as Jurgen. She was so happy. Of course, we didn’t bother him. Thanks for this review of movies. I’ve seen many of them. I’m thinking about looking some of them up for rewatch for fun.
You missed "No Contest," a cheesy, yet oddly competent, Die Hard clone that starred Robert Davi, Andrew "Dice" Clay, Shannon Tweed, and the ever awesome Roddy Piper. 90's cheese at it's finest.
In the opening of the “active war“ segment; the line about “the embassy is located in the heart of the country, which isn’t usually how embassies work.“ part got me good.😂😂😂
I used to wonder why people kept taking shots at Steven Seagal. I thought it was unnecessary and mean-spirited. Then I learned more about him, and it all started to make sense.
Wow I think I have found my new favorite channel. I'm a long time action movie fan . I have seen some of these and definitely want to track down some of these to watch. Thank you
There were Die Hard type movies before Die Hard. Films where one man takes on a structure full of bad guys. I remember the film Pirates of the 20th Century from 1981.
This is super! Irresistible Force with Cynthia Rothrock was actually a TV movie pilot for a TV show that never happened. A shame as it's one of her best roles and acting performances.
These are great, gotta say. Sadly, this is the second to the last "Borrowing Blockbusters" I could find. What's a little more sad, but a bit heartwarming at the same time is thanks to my older brother and stepmom. I've seen at least 2/3rds of everything you threw at us in most of the BBs and it brings back memories. Thank for that and for the vids.
26:10 - After the first two or three films, all the Bloodfist movies are completely unrelated to each other. XD Oh and I agree, The Taking of Beverly Hills was a LOT of fun. I felt as much excitement as when I watched Commando. ^^
I watched The Taking of Bev Hills late on TV one night, and years later stumbled across the VHS. Love it to bits - though have never found anyone else who has seen it. Nice mention!
Charles Huber was a very well known face on German television, I had no iedea that he did a stint in Hollywood. In 2013 he actually became a Member of Parliament. Nowadays, he's a special advisor to the President of Senegal.
Check out the Filipino film Ultimatum, starring legendary Filipino actor Eddie Garcia and Aussie villain Vernon Wells from Commando. It was shot in an actual nuclear power plant that was never used (Bataan Nuclear Plant). Edit: it was actually the original version of Stranglehold, since Director Cirio Santiago loves mashing scenes from different his movies to make a new movie.
I suspect that a recent dive into recent Seagal movies and knockoff mob movies with Sopranos folks brought me this in the algorithm. Happy it did. 😂 Your narrative style is like buttah. 🙏
I realize that the scene in Hijack with the stair car was technically well done, all i could hear in my mind was the arrested development background music.
For those listening with just a right earphone… The points where we hear from people talking in a movie… it’s all on the left channel… It’s not some weird creative choice that they’ve been muted like I initially thought lol
"I just missed dinner!"
"You also missed the point."

I loved Executive Decision as a kid. I was blown away that Seagal was killed off so early.
Executive Decision is a great movie. Its one of the best action movies of all-time, IMO, because of how it keeps you guessing after killing off a big-name so early on.
So was Seagal.
seagul was well liked even back then it seems. the writer/director were aware of his "legendary" status.
He was written out for being abusive and never allowed back into mainstream Hollyweird @@BrainDamageComedy
I think that I've watched this at least 3 times. It never gets old. Your editing and humor are consistently on point.

I can't believe Allison Pregler isn't the one to tell me that a David Hasselhoff Die Hard ripoff exists
And that Film Brain/Diamanda Hagan didn't tell us about the Steve Austin/Stephen Seagal crossover!
Sudden Death (1995) is a really good Die Hard rip-off. It has some great stunts.
Because you said that I am going to watch it on dvd thank you I needed something to watch have a nice day man

@@venomous6593 Jean Claude Van Damme fights a terrorist who's dressed in the Pittsburgh Penguins mascot costume. The movie is stupid as hell and super entertaining for it!
That is the first movie that comes to my mind when I think at "Die Hard in/on an x".
Van Damme kicks an entire hockey team in the face at the same time while doing the splits between 2 trucks
Holy *crap* that Born to Fight near-miss woke me right up. Death was absolutely on-site just in case the coin toss went the other way there.
This is my third watch of this video The film analysis, depth of research and humor at off the charts. Great channel

Moral of the story: if at first you fail, keep trying.
Lagaan is a great movie by any standard - and has a lot of English fans
Just to clarify: none of us cared that Anna Nicole Smith couldn't act.
there were only two reasons anyone ever watched a movie with her in it
True dat !!! :)
She can't act? Huh! I never noticed 😜
@@mihalekhale2590 the producers seemed to figure that out too
She serves a purpose in The Hudsucker Proxy (still the best film from the Coen Bros.)
Glasses off, eyepaint on...I cried when I saw that... comedy gold.
The takeaway I have from this is that Jurgen Prochnow really got around in this particular sub-genre.
