The 1985 movie, Police Story. "From the master of action comes more screen excitement than you've ever seen."

Clear your good name by taking your boss hostage at gunpoint with Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Brigitte Lin, Yuen Chor, and Bill Tung. So you think you know Jackie Chan?? Think again, idiot. Unless of course you've seen this classic Hong Kong legendary piece of cinema, in which case you're cool. Join the YFFM gang as we break down the crazy stunts in this movie and just how many injuries they were responsible. Put your bets down now for how many vertebras Jackie Chan broke during this movie. This movie also had subtitles, so don't bother watching if you can't read good.

Previous Episode

Under Siege, 1992

@YFFMPodcast

The 1992 movie, Under Siege. "In 1992 a battleship's been sabotaged by nuclear pirates out to steal its warheads. Now, surrounded by terrorists, a lone man stands with a deadly plan of attack."

Take those pies out of the oven and save Honolulu from nuclear annihilation with Steven Seagal, Tommy Lee Jones, Gary Busey, Erika Eleniak, Colm Meaney and Patrick O'Neal. This week the gang covers action hero, martial arts master, and real law enforcement agent, Steven Seagal's most successful movie. What is it that makes this action star so cool yet so cringey? Why does his accent change in every scene? and why has he only been making straight to video action movies for the last 22 years? Do you have an opinion about nuclear weapons? Any opinion at all! If so, then that makes you the target demographic for this highly "sophisticated" movie, according to Director, Andrew Davis. But enough of that babbling bullshit.. press play and enjoy!

Directed by Andrew Davis. Written by J. F. Lawton.

@YFFMPodcast

The 1994 movie, Speed. "Get ready for rush hour."

Enjoy your morning commute on various forms of LA public transit with Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, Dennis Hopper, Jeff Daniels, and Joe Morton. This movie is The wild ride of 1994, starting hot out of the gate with the action that never falls below 50 MPH.. guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your bus seat. In this episode the gang discusses how Speed relates to the LA experience, just how real was that blazing hot chemistry between Sandra and Keanu, and how does a 15 ton bus clear a 50 foot gap in the freeway? Pop quiz, hot shot... try not to get dead.
