    Captain America AND The Greatest American Hero in one film?! What god did I please?
    Edit: White Ghost 2 should’ve been made with Kat and Brown opening a surf shop in a neighborhood that’s overrun by a group of Surf Nazis! Tell me that wouldn’t be the shit! There could even have a part for Jan Michael Vincent as the neighborhood surf bum that hangs around the store. I’m telling ya’ this shit writes itself!

  • @fredleggett923
    @fredleggett923 6 років тому +14

    Speaking of Star Trek, Rosalind Chao later went on to have a recurring role in DS9 as the chief's wife. I remember her as being very shrill and never happy on the station.

    • @robertsyrett1992
      @robertsyrett1992 6 років тому +5

      Pretty much every O'Brian episode was him trying to evade her, getting tortured, and then being relieved he has Keiko in his life.

    • @fredleggett923
      @fredleggett923 6 років тому +3

      That's a pretty fair assessment of their relationship. I always thought they had zero chemistry. I wanted to strangle her on numerous occasions.

    • @Morbos1000
      @Morbos1000 6 років тому +2

      She was on TNG too. I think she preferred being on a starship exploring different planets. As a botanist there is a lot more to do there than sitting on a space station.

    • @fredleggett923
      @fredleggett923 6 років тому +3

      Possibly. A lot more dangerous, though, even if the original idea was to have the D be an apartment in space. Chao is actually a very attractive and good actress, but she was a harpy on DS9. I think she had more chemistry with buff William Katt in this one film than she ever had with the chief during DS9's entire run.

    • @ThreadBomb
      @ThreadBomb 6 років тому +3

      Keiko was awful. On the plus-side, her awfulness helped fuel the O'Brien/Bashir shipping.

    The actress who played Thi is Rosalind Chao and she went on to have a great career. She was in a bunch of movies like Joy Luck Club, I Am Sam and What Dreams May Come. She's probably best known for her work in Star Trek TNG and DS9. She's also beautiful-!

  • @sincitysinner9239
    @sincitysinner9239 6 років тому +1

    I can't fucking believe this amazing channel only has 185K subscribers, GoodBadFlicks is one of the best movie based UA-cam channels out there and it's super fucked up that it doesn't have millions of subscribers. There are shit loads of inferior movie review/analysis channels that have over a million subs, but GoodBadFlicks (one of the best channels) has less than a quarter of a million?!?!?! These Good Bad Flicks movie reviews and the "exploring" series are some of the all around coolest and informative videos, plus the movies he chooses to cover aren't big name blockbusters that you can find dozens and dozens of reviews on, so the movies he covers are usually movies that not a lot of people are aware of, or are movies that flew under the radar and lots of people forgot about. I love how much detail and research there is in every review. Instead of just giving his opinion and running through the plot of a movie just like every other reviewer, GBF basically gives a play by play of the whole movie and actually shows the footage of the scene he is talking about. Another thing that's awesome about the video's is how he doesn't end the video whenever the movie is over, instead he details how the idea for the movie came about and who wrote the film and how long the filming was, and when and where the filming took place, he explains the budget and the best parts is how he tells stories from the set/production of each movie, like if a certain actor wasn't getting along with the director, or if the producers kept butting in causing problems, and other small details pertaining to the production of the film. So instead of just giving a standard 5 or 10 minute review like almost every other reviewer, GBF tells the entire story behind the movie, from how the idea began, to who wrote it and how the cast was chosen, to the length and location of filming and the budget, and any other little detail about the movie, which is something I really enjoy hearing and appreciate the amount of research and work he puts into every one of his videos, and it's that attention to detail that makes GoodBadFlicks one of UA-cam's best channels, regardless of his ridiculously low sub count. Keep up the awesome work my friend, you definitely have a big fan here and I am going to start spreading the word about GBF. I'm gonna go to other reviewers videos and start telling people in the comments to wake up and sub to a truly great movie channel, lol. I'm coming for your comment section Jeremy Jahns and Chris Stuckman.

    Just need to point this out here. Brandon Lee's feature film debut was the Hong Kong flick LEGACY OF RAGE directed by future BRIDE OF CHUCKY auteur Ronny Yu. It beat LASER MISSION to theaters by 3-4 years.
    It would actually be a great film for you to cover Cecil.

      Best I can figure out is "The one bleeding dentist in the entire shithole"
      I think "dentist" is wrong, but i'm confident that at least "in the entire shithole" or "in this entire shithole" is correct.

    • @bunny790

      2:44 "Fucking hell, not one bleeding [something] in the entire shithole."

    "Adult Beavis" got me. I was looking at the guy sitting at the desk thinking "he doesn't look that much like Beavis". Then I saw the guy standing and lost it.

    Love these cheapie 80's Namsploitation flicks... this is the rare American -produced on that gives Cirio Santiago a run for his money. Surprised there was no mention of William Katt being in House =)
