Everything Actioncast

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris sharpen their katanas and discuss the certified Cannon Classic Ninja III: The Domination, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary.

The third and final entry in the "Ninja Trilogy" produced by The Cannon Group, which includes Enter the Ninja and Revenge of the Ninja, Ninja III: The Domination stars Lucinda Dickey as Christie, a telephone line repair technician and aerobics instructor who becomes possessed with the spirit of an evil ninja that causes her to seek out and kill the police officers responsible for the ninja's death. This is complicated because Christie starts seeing one of those cops, Billy Secord (Jordan Bennett). Sho Kosugi, who starred in the previous two Ninja Trilogy movies, co-stars as Yamada, a good ninja who travels from Japan to destroy the evil ninja. Zach and Chris talk about the infamously awesome opening golf course rampage, Christie's insane apartment, the unsexiness of V8, the constant introduction of new evil ninja powers, and more.

You can watch Ninja III: The Domination on the Internet Archive. Next week, we roll out and discuss The Transformers: The Movie as Transformers One hits theaters as the first full animated Transformers movie in almost 40 years.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris enter the MCU multiverse and discuss Deadpool & Wolverine (Spoilers!)

The only MCU film of 2024, Deadpool & Wolverine finds Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) trying to save his universe, the Fox Marvel/X-Men universe, after the death of its "anchor being", the Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) who died in Logan is causing the universe to slowly die. Rogue TVA agent Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) wants to speed up the process with a device called a "Time Ripper," and Wade is forced to navigate the multiverse to find a new Wolverine who can stabilize his universe. The guys talk about the many mind-blowing cameos, the logistics of the timeline, the awesome action sequences, Deadpool's potential future in the MCU, and more.

Next week, we're revisiting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) as the movie celebrates its 10th anniversary and Tales of the TMNT debuts on Paramount+.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris sharpen their claws and discuss 2009's X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the first time Wade Wilson/Deadpool and Wolverine shared the screen before this weekend's Deadpool & Wolverine.

The fourth film released in Fox's X-Men franchise, X-Men Origins: Wolverine sought to show the origins of Logan (Hugh Jackman) and how he became the adamantium-clawed amnesiac we met in the first X-Men movie, which includes his relationship with his brother Sabretooth (Liev Schreiber). What we got was a mess of a film full of contradictions to things we already saw in the previous movies, atrocious CG, and the absolute abomination that is Weapon XI, aka Deadpool. The guys talk about all that, plus the only live-action appearance of Gambit, the fantastic opening credits, how the video game adaptation is the better version, the infamous workprint leak, and more.

For the latest Everything Action Commentary, Zach and Chris are joined again by special guest Phil from Digital Pimp to watch another terrible comic book movie, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace.

In the final Superman film starring Christopher Reeve, the madmen at The Cannon Group acquired the rights to Superman, even though they were hemorrhaging money, and pitted the Man of Steel against a radioactive glam rock villain, Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow) as part of Lex Luthor's (Gene Hackman) scheme. Margot Kidder, Marc McClure, and Jackie Cooper return as Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White, respectively, while Jon Cryer co-stars as Lex's nephew Lenny, and Mariel Hemingway plays the horny new editor of The Daily Planet, Lacy Warfield. While watching the movie, the guys discuss how it seems like Gene Hackman had no restrictions on his wardrobe or set design, how most of the movie is a wacky 80s sitcom, Nuclear Man's absurd weakness to darkness, the bonkers gym scene, and more.

You can watch Superman IV: The Quest for Peace on Max. Sync up the movie with our commentary to watch along.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris join the Starleague to defend The Frontier and talk about 1984's The Last Starfighter, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary.

Lance Guest stars as Alex Rogan, who wishes to escape his trailer park home and unexpectedly gets his chance when, after beating the record on the arcade machine Starfighter, he's recruited by intergalactic hustler Centauri (Robert Preston) to put his skills to the test for real, become a Starfighter for the planet Rylos, and help them defeat the evil Xur (Norman Snow) and the invading Ko-Dan armada. Zach and Chris try to figure out Centauri's scheme for making money off Starfighter, celebrate the greatness of Grig (Dan O'Herlihy), the wacky adventures of Beta, the (at the time) cutting-edge CG effects, and more.

You can rent or buy The Last Starfighter on platforms like Amazon. Next week, we'll face the dark side of nature and discuss Twister to prepare for the release of Twisters next weekend.
