share an actual fight scene with actual humans made by actual humans 🖤

Sam Raimi tells us how to make the perfect mixture for fake blood. “A good thick mix of karo syrup, red food coloring, a little blue to give it that unaerated look, and a bit of coffee to make it dark... I don’t mean to brag but hello, I’m here, I know how to throw blood.”

NEW EPISODE: The Boys are finally together since December & bring to you their thoughts on the latest movies. Liam leads the charge on THE WRECKING CREW, & @hibachijustice.bsky.social and @vycevictus.bsky.social have differing thoughts on SHELTER! More below! creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

Is there anything actively in the works with respect to the "You know what" associated with both of these filmmakers? With the WB-Netflix merger in progress, maybe, maybe not. But make no mistake, Zack and David absolutely know what they're doing here.

NEW EPISODE! @hibachijustice.bsky.social & @vycevictus.bsky.social are back as the two returning champs play catch-up with THE RIP! They have a little therapy between one another as they discuss the film and the ongoing state of things. creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

Back in two everyone.

One of these days, the world's gonna see what's on these whiteboards realized. The big guy wants it, and his fans know how to move mountains. With Netflix maybe after the WBD merger? Who knows, but the big guy keeps ringing the bell, and a bell cannot be unrung.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

‘PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 8’ will release on May 21, 2027 in theaters. Produced by James Wan.

My birthday is in a few weeks, Feb. 5th to be exact. If the relevant BTS parties connected to #TheFurious can drop the trailer and/or release date by then, I'll be most appreciative. 🙂 youtu.be/f3urHeVUWO4?...

Today, we have the excellent writer, podcast host and former polygon editor @petevolk.bsky.social joining us to talk about one of the most influential martial art movies of the 2000s. Michael Jai White and Scott Adkins in Isaac Florentine's Undisputed 2! It's also a sports movie that doesn't suck.

First posters for Scott Adkins next film have been released. Looks like the most unique Adkins flick to date. Here’s to hopefully starting off 2026 with another banger!!

NEW EPISODE! Producer @odstspartan.bsky.social takes over hosting duties as @vycevictus.bsky.social talks GREENLAND 2: MIGRATION & debate about January horror with PRIMATE! Liam returns to talk about how tight Sean Penn's shirt is in ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER! creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

Happy 74th birthday to this absolute cinematic legend!! Celebrate by watching your favorite Sammo movie today!!!

That feeling when you watched Ripley's Believe It or Not religiously as a kid and you find all four seasons on Tubi

The finale of Dragons Forever is an absolute action masterpiece. Sammo gives everyone a chance to shine while delivering mind blowing choreography, perfect editing, back breaking stunts and so many white socks!

NEW YEAR, NEW EPISODE! The Boys welcome back @headexposure.bsky.social for the annual The Year in Action Review! Listen as @hibachijustice.bsky.social, @vycevictus.bsky.social, & @odstspartan.bsky.social dish out the good, bad, & surprising Action films of 25'! creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

Side note - Indiana Jones really did have the best Mentos commercial of all time. youtu.be/Mf0V6PXBZN4?...

Great final theatrical outing of the holiday season, and thank you Flashback Cinema - I've now seen every Indiana Jones movie theatrically.

I can't overstate how much I, as a teenage Tae Kwon Do student, absolutely hero worshipped Phillip Rhee. Seeing his story encapsulated here is so uplifting. Can't wait to see what Phil's got cooking with Best of the Best 5, and hopefully Dae Han comes back! youtu.be/wjf5mzx8SUM?...

Some writers can churn out a script every few days while some authors take ten years to put out a single novel. There is no set pace for writers, no amount of writing that guarantees success. There is only what works for YOU and what doesn't. That's the only pace that matters.

Happy New Year everyone!

Do dogs generate as much love as my cat appears to here on Bluesky? Let’s find out.

Everything the body needs for all your action desires. Read em' and weep folks!! 👇👇👇

It's here! The 2025 Action Cinema recap! An overview of the year's most interesting action films. Everything from Ne Zha 2 and Avatar 3 to Last Bullet, Kantara and The Prosecutor, to smaller gems like The Forbidden City, Tatsujin Warriors, and many more! youtu.be/74ckedulSgo

Random thought while scrolling through Amazon Prime viewing material late this evening - Titan A.E. is so underrated. Star Wars meets Waterworld as I've always described it. Really deserving of a resurgence after a quarter century.

Biases aside, when the big guy simply posting an image of his Superman causes enough of a splash for Deadline, Variety, THR, EW, and multiple other major publications to cover it as a major story, I don't think it's unreasonable to ask just how "dead" his universe really is. ew.com/zack-snyder-...

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals

Remember that first weird Kevin Spacey Christmas Eve video? The director did a commentary a while back. youtu.be/mYrd3ajplcY?...

It's a Wonderful Life premiered on Dec. 20, 1946. Steven Spielberg said of the film, "It’s a Wonderful Life shows that every human being on this Earth matters -- and that’s a very powerful message."

Happy 80th Birthday to Ernie Hudson, whose many acting credits include HOLD IT, THIS GUY IS 80? WHAT????

Assassin’s Fist remains one of the most faithful and best video game adaptations and interpretations of Street Fighter to date. Moh and Howard are great and Joey Ansah’s choreography perfectly translated video game moves to real world techniques. Wish we got more!

The focus in Jiu-Jitsu class this week was leg lasso and bicep slicer. Suffice it to say, the latter most certainly lives up to its name. Jiu-Jitsu is a lot of fun, but not without plenty of pain 😂

NEW EPISODE! One more time (?) as Stephen Hopkins joins @hibachijustice.bsky.social, @vycevictus.bsky.social, Liam, & Producer @odstspartan.bsky.social to talk about his time in TV with 24 (& more)! Plus the STREET FIGHTER trailer, the biz, & shooting the shit. creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

FYI, we already got a #StreetFighter movie of sorts this year, #GladiatorUnderground, with Martial Club's Andy and Brian Le, up-and-comer D.Y. Sao, and one dude with Vega-style claws. Great primer for Brian's appearance in #TheFurious next year, to boot. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ssN...

FYI, as much as I'm looking forward to seeing #StreetFighter on the biggest screen possible, I fear that the undeniably talented David Dastmalchian sadly is not likely to surpass the one, the only Raul Julia, but that is, as we all know, a high bar to meet.

So, time for a brag/cautionary tale - spinning kicks are one of my favorite techniques, so as you can imagine, I was pretty into it last night working mainly kicks in class. So leave it to me to get carried away and kick so fast and hard I actually gave my own leg whiplash. 🤦‍♂️

Heh.

Hey folks, no new episode this week. I (Producer Max) am celebrating in Edinburgh with some sweater shopping, drinks and WAKE UP DEAD MAN, while The Boys are taking the time to recoup and recharge after a litany of cool guests like Katy O'Brian, @jasontrost.bsky.social , Stephen Hopkins & more.
