Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon

For the final show of the season Arden and another kung fu film!
Though, Paul will argue that it’s not a kung fu movie, but a
terribly long 80s music video. Either way, the guys are obviously
having a fun time reviewing it. Oh, and there’s a single person
in the chat room during the live show. It sounds sad to have only
one person, but he’s one of the film’s stars! JOKE’S ON YOU, REST
OF THE INTERNET.

On with the show:


Once again, Arden brings us a movie to review. Previously, he
brought us Revengeofthe.ninja.

We learn that M.A.S.K., Mask and The Mask are all different
films and television shows.

Chris is fascinated with Berry Gordy’s Wikipedia page.

The Last Dragon is ranked number 33 for the year in 1985 and
look at the movies below it. Clue, Weird Science and more.

There’s a Road House play?

Get your fan site on because you need the glow.

The villain is played by the late Julius Carry, who is simply
amazing.

Lots of recognizable faces in this film, William H. Macy,
Rudy from the Cosby Show, Chazz Palminteri and this guy who is in
every mobster film.

Vanity’s 7th Heaven is…well, watch at your own risk.

Not one, but two songs in this film were nominated for a
Razzie.

Arden compares Vanity’s dance in the 7th Heaven video to
Prancercise.

An actor from the film, Ernie Reyes Jr. shows up in the chat
room during our live stream of this episode. Chris recounts the
experience here.

Chris is frustrated because he can’t find the Suki Yaki Hot
Saki Sue song anywhere for purchase.

Paul blows the minds of the others when he points out that
Leroy’s master is just regurgitating fortune cookie wisdom
throughout the entire film. Hey! He’s right.

Ernie Reyes tells us from the chat room that his dad Ernie
Reyes Sr. was one of the baddies in the club fight scene near the
end.

Who’s Leroy’s dentist? He does great work.

As we wind the recap down, Ernie Reyes Jr. shares a great
insight from being on the set during the final scene in the
movie. Have a listen, we can’t spoil it here.

We discuss 80’s music vs. boy bands and Arden dares Paul to
watch Breakin and Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.

We discuss other possible movies to watch and Ernie suggests
a few from the chat room, like Surf Ninjas. Then hilariously he
says, “Why is my whole career films that can be on your show?”



Thanks to Arden for joining us on a very funny show. Check out
the restaurant he and friends are creating on twitter. There’s a
blog for Prairie Noodle Shop as well.


Of course, we need to thank Ernie Reyes Jr. for popping into the
chat room. You can find him on twitter, @erniereyesjr. Finally,
we have to thank you the audience for indulging us and listening.
