Forgotten Movie Den w/ Len Kabasinski - The Hunted (1995) Jun 23, 2023

Show notes

In this video, we're going to review the 1995 movie The Hunted, starring Christopher Lambert and John Lone, about an "American" computer salesman who gets caught up in a web of intrigue and revenge in a generations-long feud between a deadly ninja clan and a dying samurai family.

Recommended to us by film director Len Kabasinski, this J.F. Lawton movie (also starring Yoshio Harada and Joan Chen) is surprisingly amazing. The Hunted is a movie no one knows about, but that's definitely not a bad thing! This movie is a fun action thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire way through. If you're a ninja or samurai fan, then you'll love this movie!

Len Kabasinski and Joe Ortega from the Ozone Nightmare Podcast join the Salty Nerds to review this kick-butt forgotten film!

June-Claude Van Damme Part 4 Part Deux - Double Team Jun 09, 2023

Show notes

It's that time again for JUNE CLAUDE VAN DAMME! The show where the Salty Nerds celebrate all things Jean-Claude Van Damme related, and this time we have a classic for you all! At sometime, somewhere, someone thought it would be a good idea to put basketball bad-boy Dennis Rodman in a movie. And not only did they think it was a good idea to put him in a movie, but they thought it would be a good idea to pair him up with JCVD! Throw once of Hong Kong's biggest directors and a tiger into the mix, and you have the action classic DOUBLE TEAM. This movie is so ridiculous it has to be seen to be believed. Filled with basketball puns, spy magic, and Jean Claude Van Damme having sex with a bathtub, this movie has everything you could want from a JCVD team-up-buddy-movie, and more! Come check out this wonderful film with the Salty Nerds! What did you think of Double Team? Did you love it? Hate it? Did it make you want to take a bath?

Ant-Man Quantumania & The Decline Of The Marvel Universe Jun 02, 2023

Show notes

The Salty Nerds talk about what is widely being hailed as one of the worst MCU movies ever - Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania. What was supposed to be a big kick-off to Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe landed with a resounding wet THUD as the third installment of the Ant-Man series strayed from the fun heist formula in an effort to launch the new villain Kang the Conqueror (played by the embattled Jonathan Majors).

This leads the Nerds to discuss the broader issued with the MCU and it's aimless decline since Avengers Endgame. What do you think of Phase 4 & 5 of Marvel? Is it a mess? Is there still hope it could get good again? Let us know what you think on our Discord server: http://www.saltynerddiscord.com
