Pierre Kirby was 'delivering yachts:' he was a pirate, people. He made the movies on a lark and returned to the real adventures on the sea until he ended up in Davy Jones' Locker.

Hi kids, and welcome to another episode of Will it Fit! Today, we’ve got an entire goddamn hour of old-school Cinema Snob episodes! We’ll be using olive oil and popcorn butter to fit this guy in! Not sure how I’m going to stick the metaphysical concept of time up my ass? Well, it’s not my first time! And remember, it _always_ fits!
I loved him that way. His persona there perfectly fit the movies he was reviewing. They are also shoddily made and kinda off putting. When you watched him for the first time you wondered "who is this kooky nerd what the fuck is this I'm watching", the same feeling like when you are watching some really obscure movies. The shitty camera, constant whistling background noise, poor lighting, slightly creepy visage, snobby acting, it all added to the character. I think his editing and inside jokes were also much more clever. Like here he used the copy and paste technique, typical for these Hong Kong films when "talking with Karpov" about the characters and when he complained about voice-over, he was actually talking over the movie. Real shame he gradually turned into Nostalgia Critic clone. Also, I wonder what kind of looser will read this all this shit.
@@petrolak He's still doing exploitation movies. He's just branched out into different, more well-known types of exploitation. Christploitation, actionsploitation, cheapo-kid-moviesploitation, Tyler Perrysploitation, he's still true to form. You could also argue that he graduated from reviewing exploitation movies to CREATING exploitation movies.
40:34 - 41:01 I know this scene is supposed to be tragic, but they somehow made this scene unintended comedy. Seriously, I laughed till I cried. Girl: "Uncle Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I want you to staay with miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. I want to stay with yoooooooooooooou!!!" Uncle Lee: "DON'T COME ANY CLOSER! GO AWAY, I HATE YOU! NO GET AWAY, NO!" Girl: "Uncle Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" *BOOM*
From wikipedia: Gunfight at Red Sands is also noteworthy for being the first Italian Western to feature an Ennio Morricone score. Harrison turned down Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars and recommended Clint Eastwood for the role. Harrison joked that was his greatest contribution to the cinema.
"Pierre Kirby, now around him there was lots of speculation. Good looking, could act and reasonably good at martial arts. The guy sailed into Hong Kong on a yacht with a few very nice Singaporean ladies in tow. Said he made most of his money delivering yachts between different destinations in South East Asia (nice work if you can get it - but legitimate?) So why the speculation? Well, Pierre went off to deliver a yacht to the Philippines - never came back. Next, the story circulates via Pedro (guy who ran all the movie editing for IFD / Filmark) that he was attacked by pirates, resisted and was thrown overboard. Again, it does happen in that region. So, six months on and this guy Edowan Bersmea is in the Hyatt Hotel in Hong Kong to meet someone and spots Pierre in the crowd. Shouts to him, guy turns and heads out - never to be seen again." ~ MKPReviews->INTERVIEWS!->Good ‘Guise’ Wear A Black Eye Patch (Cinema Nocturnia) If only someone would make that into a movie, then the legacy of Pierre-fucking-Kirby could be brought into the lives of everyone
Sky Larker Did they ever find a body? If they did, then my condolences to the Kirby family. I'm not saying he's alive but who knows......people have faked their deaths quite well throughout history.
Sky Larker That's the part of the mystery. I want to think that he's alive but I'll leave it at that for the sake of his sister and family. It's a shame. I think if he'd been dealt a different hand he would've gone on to be a great action star.
Ponder von Lampgurgle Well, I suppose I can try and write a script, for you guys and all fellow fans and supporters of The Cinema Snob (Brad Jones). Hopefully it comes out alright. I'll let you guys know how it progresses, but it may take awhile, if you guys have any ideas be sure to let me know... I'll start writing right away.
1:20- At least they fixed that later on. 56:04- Until after this review was released. I'm still waiting for Brad to review the final Pierre Kirby movie, Crackdown Mission.
In my memory, I thought Pierre Kirby was comfy chair era Snob, but instead I was blindsided by Floor Snob. I haven't seen him sitting on the floor in over a decade. Just wild, it's legit inspirational watching him make videos with dog shit audio, even dogger shitter video, while sitting on the floor. HIs little two camera gimmick was so gd charming because you know he had to get up, stop the video, movie his camera, sit back down, and do the second camera trick. Beautiful. UA-cam is so beautiful.
What's sad is the disc with Ninja Untouchables is arguably one of the best in that cheapo (and obviously dubbed from EP VHS or worse) kung fu set. NU is the most watchable/hilarious of the Godfrey Ho/Joseph Lai chop jobs included (yes, it has several more, talk about getting your money's worth!) and the other movie on the disc, Monkey With 72 Magic, is pure madness even by fantasy kung fu standards.
It's a shame that we never got to see Pierre Kirby in an American movie (American Commando 2 and 3 don't count) because he would complete the roster for my pet project, The Expendables 4 with Arnold, Sly, Bruce, Norris, Lundgren, Harrison Ford, Jason Stathem , John Cena, Chuck Norris, Reb Brown and archival footage of Snipes, Michael Keaton, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, all the actors who played James Bond, Robert Downy Jr, Cynthia Rothrock, Lucy Lawless, Van Damme, Segal, John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Antonio Banderas, Denis Quaid, Will Smith, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Samuel L Jackson, John Travolta, Jason Blade, George Clooney, Val Kilmer, Demi Moore, DiCaprio, Kurt Russell, Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves, Brando and Charlton Heston!
I think Thunder of Gigantic Serpent is trying to do a Mothra thing, where it's not going out its way to kill innocent people, it just does while trying to rescue its owner. It just doesn't really look like that when it could have just gone under the bridge. :p Also even without the Pierre Kirby scenes, there's still a lot of people being bloodily shot up in a movie about a giant snake that likes playing with a beach ball.
Wikipedia says that Kirby died in 1990. Weird that there's a page about him in Finnish and German, but not English.... Man it's been a long time since I last heard the name Keith Coogan. I gotta watch Ski Hard/Downhill Willie again someday.
Yep. Found that pretty mystifying too when I read it. Who knows what happened? He could've been battling pirates with sweet martial arts moves his last minutes alive for all we know.
***** That sounds even cooler. :D My German has degraded quite a bit due to not using it for the last 15 years, but the Finnish wiki adds yet that Kirby's party was transporting a boat to the Philippines at the time they were lost (which I think wasn't in the German one, other than that they appeared to be pretty much the same.) Not a terribly significant piece of info but I thought I'd mention it since there's not a whole lot information on either articles.
German Wikipedia reads: "Kirby starb 1990 bei der Überführung einer Yacht mit Freunden auf offener See." He died in 1990 while on a yacht with friends. Probably attacked by pirates somewhere in Oriental seas I guess.
I just watched the first episode of mission impossible and I swear to god I saw a dude that looked just like him. Its like 45 mins in and he doesn't have any lines, but its a pretty good close up and Its a dead ringer for Pierre. I know its 1966 but holy shit they must have been related somehow if its not the same guy.
I love how he says "I've read a lot of reviews of Godfrey Ho???" How many people are actually aware of the existence of this filmmaker and have actually searched this shit out to even write a review???
There is a channel with almost all of his movies right here on youtube, its called “godfrey ho cinema” and it has quite a lot of views, there is also another channel called “wu tang collection” where they have plenty of martial arts movies, some good, some bad, not as bad as GODfrey ho tho
There's also a UA-cam channel called Sh*tcase Cinema and the reviewer there has covered several Godfrey Ho films that featured Richard Harrison in the lead.
And the first two Super Sentai franchise entries were made by the late, and forever great, Shotaro Ishinomori. However, I can see why some could make the Godfrey Ho comparison when it comes to Power Rangers, seeing as Saban outright stole most of it's footage from the 16th entry of the franchise (Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger), and has continued to do so ever since. He also tried pulling this shit with Kamen Rider Black and Kamen Rider Ryuki (Which is incidentally a sin he shares with Godfrey, who stole footage from Kamen Rider Super-1), and thank fuck he failed miserably in that attempt to make another fake franchise.
John Miller Godfrey Ho movies and 1970's toku are similar because they have the same special effects, same fighting coreography and over the top characters.
The one thing that always confused the hell out of me about the Godfry Ho stuff is why do they also dub the footage he shoots? Does he just not own a boom mike?
I always thought Randy Savage was kinda cool but he can't beat Pierre Kirby! BTW the clothes in AC3 look so very 90's, was that movie really shot in '88?
Sincado Oh okay. I saw one internet posting of his death being in 88 but I found a couple more that mention 90. So 90 it is. Damn internet. Still not 100% accurate. I do feel it was very tragic. I think Pierre had what it took to make it big if he wanted to.
Was there another episode where Brad eventually sees the light that Pierre Kirby is the greatest action star that ever lived? It seemed to be a rather abrupt transition. ;)
I squee every time I hear Alan Parsons Project in these exploitation movies. They had Stereotomy in Ninja Champion, which is also a pretty awesome song.
hey, if HE'S allowed to make references to other movies that have that basically have the first two words in the title in common, I'm allowed to do the same with animes.
David Spring How long before we get a "Witch Hunter Ninja" story?.....O_O......ya know.....that might kick ass. A live action film about a ninja that hunts witches. I'd pay to see it.
David Spring It would have to be handled delicately. I would actually advocate for it to be a co-production for Paramount and Toho or some other Japanese studio. Maybe the Americans put up part of the money and supply FX-technicians while Japan handles the actors and sets. You have to remember- Japan can't throw the kind of money at films that we can. The story's taking shape in my head right now.
The snake is called 'Moslor'. You can read the subtitles when the girl says it. They are in Greek, but if you've studied math even on high school level, you should be able to read it.
isn't bipolar just the new term for manic-depressive? Like manic-depressive is the term used in the 40's and then it got shortened to bipolar? or am I just grossly misinformed?
Bipolar Disorder used to be known as manic-depression, but the term went out of use because it was somewhat colloquial and inaccurate. There are various forms that BPD takes, including different episode lengths (eg. fast-cycling BPD can go from 0-60-0 in 5 minutes), and different episode types, such as mixed episodes which involve the frantic thought processes of mania, but the negative spiral of depression.
E Quinn Yeah that sounds way too vague so I guess it's either drug-related or he faked his own death and now sails the high seas, free as the wind and owing no man.
Pierre Kirby was 'delivering yachts:' he was a pirate, people. He made the movies on a lark and returned to the real adventures on the sea until he ended up in Davy Jones' Locker.
Weren’t ninjas considered thieves and hired assassins? I guess he was a sea ninja, too.
That's an interesting theory, I like it.
One day Pierre Kirby will appear again, say some incomprehensible things, and disappear again.
Like David Bowie in Fire Walk With Me.
i honestly do miss the old episodes...underground reviews at its best and its pierre kirby!!!!
Agreed. Old Snob videos are my UA-cam comfort zone.
The low quality with everything just fits so well, gimme that audio static

Hi kids, and welcome to another episode of Will it Fit! Today, we’ve got an entire goddamn hour of old-school Cinema Snob episodes! We’ll be using olive oil and popcorn butter to fit this guy in! Not sure how I’m going to stick the metaphysical concept of time up my ass? Well, it’s not my first time! And remember, it _always_ fits!
This is a untouched video that not even cinema snob knows about!
It's so strange seeing a young, facial-hair-less Cinema Snob sitting on the floor in someone's basement...
Eaarly installment weirdness.
It looks like a hostage video. Filmed with a Fisher Price Pixelvision.

Real shame he gradually turned into Nostalgia Critic clone.
Also, I wonder what kind of looser will read this all this shit.
@@petrolak me. But seriously though, he should keep it the same for non exploitive movies but use the bad lighting, etc for the exploitation movies.
@@petrolak He's still doing exploitation movies. He's just branched out into different, more well-known types of exploitation.

Pierre Kirby is to Brad as Reb Brown is to Noah.
You can also say that Godfrey Ho is to Brad as David Prior is to Mike and Jay.
Or Snowflame for Linkara.

@E Quinn god dammit now we need to bring him back so we can have ninja pirate movies
Really like this long format
Make me.
according to imdb pierre kirby appears in the cast of this show
what?
what if Brad is Pierre ?
You never saw them in the same room now did yaaaa !?
***** It would be the perfect cover.
Plus, he kinda looks like Pierre.
The highlight of his career.
German Wikipedia reads: "Kirby starb 1990 bei der Überführung einer Yacht mit Freunden auf offener See." He died in 1990 while on a yacht with friends. Probably attacked by pirates somewhere in Oriental seas I guess.
It's the only way Pierre Kirby could go out.

Found this in 2024 and damn this is crunchy, I love it.
For the record, a coffin weighs about 150 to 250 lbs. Averaged, of course. That's gonna more than double if it's full, of course.
That’s pretty impressive to be carrying that on your back. That’s some extreme core strength.
@@crimsondynamo615 Oh yeah--moving one is a two-or three person job. Pallbearing, of course, is typically 6 to 8 people.
29:19 those subtitles are in greek, the snake's name seems to actually be Moslor.
Thanks for saving these!
The bright colored ninja bit is great when you consider he definitely had heard of naruto lol
The serpent's name is 'Moslor', if we can trust the Greek subtitles.
Pierre Kirby, Saban's first stunt coordinator for Power Rangers.
I love how he says "I've read a lot of reviews of Godfrey Ho???" How many people are actually aware of the existence of this filmmaker and have actually searched this shit out to even write a review???

Next week, The Man himself returns after many years away
What do you mean?
makes me wonder if the creator of power rangers watched Pierre Kirby movies.
Go, go Pierre Kirby!
Joshua If you sing his name like the Power Rangers theme song it fits perfectly.
The First Super Sentai series was Goranger from 1975 long before Godfrey Ho's ninja movies.
And the first two Super Sentai franchise entries were made by the late, and forever great, Shotaro Ishinomori.

Looking at this now it's like 'Snob: The Squatter Years' 😓
I am pretty sure that gigantic gun held by Sean Odell is the same gun held by White Panther in the Ninja Untouchables.
How many years did it take ye olde Cinema Snob to find a ground?
Well, he'd been doing it at least three years before appearing on Spoony's site or joining TGWTG.
The one thing that always confused the hell out of me about the Godfry Ho stuff is why do they also dub the footage he shoots? Does he just not own a boom mike?
YOU'RE NOT FOOLING ANYONE GODFREY!
The only thing that makes me proud to be a Greek is the Greek subtitles in the Pierre Kirby movies
Kirby died way back in 1990, according to the internet. But I thought Brad would know that. That is unusual.
zjovanovic10 He does knows that. If you go to his website he wrote that he eventually learned that.
Thanks for the info :) will check it out.
Yeah no problem. That guy looked awesome too. Too bad he got killed that way.
zjovanovic10 He covered that earlier in this video.
Isn't "dating a manic depressive bipolar" a Tautology? 🤔😅
It's a shame Pierre Kirby disappeared, I know I'm gonna get flak for this, but I would've liked to have seen him in Star Wars. :-0
tbh I weirdly agree
This Kirby guy is the obscure version of Chuck Norris. Seriously...:D
Seems like the female lead always dies in Godfrey Ho films.

Oh if it had only been Daisy Ridley that had died in a movie.

Karpov is a savage.
He's just one man.
I always thought Randy Savage was kinda cool but he can't beat Pierre Kirby! BTW the clothes in AC3 look so very 90's, was that movie really shot in '88?
we need to find Pierre Kirby, preserve him in some substance or something, and wisit him from time to time, while it rains outside.
Andiperla Wilinki Hes dead mate.
Falando Really?wow how come?and how old was he?

i cant believed i watched this whole fucking thing.
+Daniel Tittyfish i cant believed it too i watched this whole fucking thing....."again"
+violet eyes Count me in there. I've seen this like 3 times maybe more.
This is my fifth time.
here we go again, it my eleventh times watch this shit again and it actually become like daily basis when i eating breakfast lol.
well since i wrote my original comment i have now seen it 3 times.
Ah the old days.
4:13 essa parte se conecta com a Review de Son of Sleepway Camp, também do Cinema Snob.
How much do you want to bet someone commented with, "Uh, Snob... Casshern was from the 70's. Ugh, get it right. Disliked."
I love the public access TV quality of this video!! More crappy ninja movies to review, YES!
The General sounds like Spotswood from Team America.
Pierre Kirby died at sea in 1990.
Thought it was 1988?
All his scenes were filmed in 1988
Sincado Oh okay. I saw one internet posting of his death being in 88 but I found a couple more that mention 90. So 90 it is. Damn internet. Still not 100% accurate.
I do feel it was very tragic. I think Pierre had what it took to make it big if he wanted to.
Wow. . .Back in the day huh? Man it's been a while, older videos don't age well. XD
You can now watch this on The Cinema Snob channel.
lol, "Untouchable Glory" two titles on the screen. Classic!
I am in love with your idea of z grade trash cinema being so literal. Thanks Brad!
Was there another episode where Brad eventually sees the light that Pierre Kirby is the greatest action star that ever lived? It seemed to be a rather abrupt transition. ;)
thunder of the gigantic serpent is definitely not a japanese kaiju flick, maybe a hong kong one
1:24:18 I hear the first few chords of the Nostalgia Critic theme in this scene O_o
& clockwork orange music at the end lol wtf
Made_In_Heaven88 I caught that too!
What’s that music at 1:09:53?
Peirre Kirby Vs Red Brown.... WHY DID THIS NEVER HAPPEN!!!!
because you can find Reb, Pierre is a ghost
1:07:00 I think those are Gundam masks.
the zombiw kung fu movie was called gravedigger style, was a series of kung fu movies with horror undertones
lol im pretty sure betty from kungpow was a splice in for this specific reason
the sad part the movies before they had scenes put in them were most likely better movies
R.I.P. Pierre Kirby :(
El Cisco Kid He's not dead brother... Just waiting.
1:09:51, what song IS that and the one before it. Sounds really friggin good.
Tangerine Dream - Scrap Yard and Alan Parsons Project - Sirius
+DuplicatedOnce Thanks for the latter. A lot of Savage Temptation has much from Tangerine Dream's Thief OST, so that works. More music to research.
I squee every time I hear Alan Parsons Project in these exploitation movies. They had Stereotomy in Ninja Champion, which is also a pretty awesome song.
Moslor. Not Mozla... Moslor. you can also read it in the subtitles.
Brightly colored clothing is just PERFECT for stealth!
I just realized that the person that shot out the ropes also sent rounds directly into the apartment building behind the ropes.
35:44 - the Sisters of Mercy - Neverland!? That's odd.
53:40 Kinnikuman soundtrack.
Does Full Metal Ninja at least have something to do with Full Metal Alchemist?
Not at all. They're completely different from one and another.
hey, if HE'S allowed to make references to other movies that have that basically have the first two words in the title in common, I'm allowed to do the same with animes.

17:30 Very James Bond movie theme music all of a sudden.
Anyone know the name of the Techno theme?
1:02:59 Hey listen, some stolen Jean-Michel Jarre! Fifth Rendez-Vous Part 3, or Music for Supermarkets Part 3 depending on how deep you are.
04:35 If it's his footage as Guile from Street Fighter, I'm down.
I love how the ninja headbands actually SAY 'ninja' on them. Because ninjas do that.

Pierre Kirby vs. Master Betty to decide who is the best worst ninja
Pierre Kirby is pretty badass.
One of those was clearly a Gundam and the other looked like Speed Racer.

Don't care what anyone says, Full Metal Ninja was legitimately an awesome movie lol
No. Please consult Tom Waits about the pronunciation of that country you mentioned in the first movie. It's pronounced: "In-doh-neee-zhi-uhh."
isn't bipolar just the new term for manic-depressive? Like manic-depressive is the term used in the 40's and then it got shortened to bipolar? or am I just grossly misinformed?
The bipolar phases are longer I think. Almost weeks.

ah ok that makes sense, so bipolar is sort of like the ADHD of the manic-depressive world.
Bipolar Disorder used to be known as manic-depression, but the term went out of use because it was somewhat colloquial and inaccurate. There are various forms that BPD takes, including different episode lengths (eg. fast-cycling BPD can go from 0-60-0 in 5 minutes), and different episode types, such as mixed episodes which involve the frantic thought processes of mania, but the negative spiral of depression.
ah thank you, I thought that was the case.
I love the Internet. People can explain eath other what they know without knowing eath other.
We NEED to find pierre kirby.
E Quinn Yeah that sounds way too vague so I guess it's either drug-related or he faked his own death and now sails the high seas, free as the wind and owing no man.
The only information I could find on Pierre Kirby was a short Wikipedia page written in German
Pierre's sister contacted Brad and it turns out Pierre died at sea in 1990. Kinda sad...
Dude
Yeah, I know, fucking sucks. I really hoped for that moment when Brad was reviewing a movie and Pierre Kirby shows up at his door.
Ja guter Herr, unser Wikipedia ist großartig, ist es das nicht? Guten Tag noch. Grüße von Deutschlanden.
