The above is a quote from what may be my most favourite movie (Big Trouble in Little China) of all time. It's got everything. Fashion. Action. Fights. Chases, escapes, death by cleavers, tiny giggling Chinese men. Exploding gods. And of course... Jack Burton.
Oh, to be young, smooth and ridiculously taunt Kim Catrell, with a fabulous outfit in Chinese-red coloured silk, matching headpiece (a highly underrated necessity), and a mullet-sporting, tight jean-rocking Jack Burton.
*swoon*
Ok. So I love 80s action movies. That's something you didn't know about me. Other favourites (which I own and my bf is rather horrified I can quote by memory):
- Hard to Kill (one of Slim Steven Segal's best)
- Showdown in Little Toyko (you won't believe the writing in this one till you hear it)
- Kickboxer (brilliant if for nothing other than JCVD's dance scene.)
On a side note, just discovered that I've got a hole in the seams of my skinny jeans. On the outside of the thigh. So I've split my pants, but not in a fat-girl sort of way. So it's ok for me to go finish off those chicken fingers I have waiting on the counter.
