Hong Kong Action Hour - Challenge of the Masters

Keep your kung fu strong, but your heart stronger! Welcome back students, to the ultimate audio dojo! This week we will be trying to Master the teachings in the 1976 classic: Challenge of the Masters!

We are so lucky to have a special visitor who has mastered the ancient art of writing a novel, Raffael Coronelli! Give him a ring on his twitter account, why don’t you.



SHOWNOTES

Intro (2:30) - Get to know our special guest a bit!

News (12:56)

Recent Releases:

  1. Everything Everywhere All At Once: Michelle Yeoh stars as an aging Chinese immigrant in this high flying kung fu drama that has literally everything I want from a film!

Upcoming Releases:

  1. Ultraman Decker: Premiering July 9th, What’s better than dudes in suits judo-ing dudes in other suits? Not much! Set a few years after Trigger, this is another in the series of Ultraman soft-remakes, this time of Ultraman Dyna. Will this Ultra have the GUTS to save the world? We’ll have to find out!

  2. The Northman: Released April 22, Buff vikings fighting naked with battle axes is martial arts too! This movie is coming out later this month and looks rad as hell, it gets a recommendation from me!

Re-releases:

  1. The 8 Diagram Pole Fighter (from Arrow): Gordon Liu , the warrior-turned-monk must renounce his peaceful ideals in order to mount a rescue mission and avenge his family.

  2. One-Armed Boxer (Arrow): Yu Tian Long (Wang) is the best fighter to come out of his local martial arts school, until a bad dude roles into town and UNARMS him. Literally! But don’t worry, he has a magical elixer that will help him get revenge!

  3. Come Drink with Me (also from Arrow): When the Governor’s son is taken hostage it’s up to the badass swordslady Golden Swallow to ensure the save the day. Will her drunken companion help her, or is he secretly besties with the kidnappers!?

  4. The Shaolin Plot (from Eureka Entertainment): Chen Hsing Is on a quest to master all of the worlds martial arts, and the Wu Tang Clan must stop him! No, not the band!

Rumors:

  1. A possible sequel in the works for Netflix's "The Night Comes For Us (2018)". It seems to be focusing on Julie Estelle's character, the Black Widow-esque "OPERATOR". This rumore stems from the director, Timo Tjahjanto, posting new artwork of the character.

Challenge of the Masters discussion (28:04)

Gordon Liu, a cast favorite, is back at it! In this more “down to earth” kung fu movie we get to see him grow from a snot nosed dork, to a Pao Professional! Join us as we master our staff skills and learn the ultimate technique: Kindness!
