6x01 The Other Train to Busan Movies | Video Essay

Train to Busan is also the only movie in the series with a different writer.

By the way, this movie came out before Terminator 2.

More like Crazy Riichi Asians, amirite?

If they don't look that bad... That's because they are actually good.

Steven Yeun is my fav. There, I said it.

I don't live in the basement.
I only work there.

A fun movie for kids, a thought provoking one for adults.

Is it me or does Thomas Gibson looks like Jim Carrey with the smile of Benedict Cumberbatch.

Honestly, the 12 year old me deep inside my heart still thinks some of these scenes are cool. At least the idea of them is.

It was a perspective shifting journey.

I have so many things I want to say about Tony Jaa, but I can only fit 2 movies into one video.

It has been so many years. I wonder if McDull still holds the same importance to most Hong Kongers today.

If only the poster is better.

In this video, let's take a look at Dangal, an absolute blast of an Indian film that somehow became a phenomenon in China.

This movie has nothing to do with the Nintendo product of the same name.

Honestly, a lot of these 60s war movies were well made and entertaining. I would've love them if they were shown to me in college. Tunnel Warfare is legit WWII Home Alone, except it predates Home Alone by a few decades.

Here's an idea: How about we hire Johnny To to direct Rush Hour 4 instead?

It's very refreshing to see a good horror film from Hong Kong that isn't a comedy nor a CAT III exploitation. Give it a watch!

Maybe I should just make a whole video about God of Cookery.

I've always believed that this film is better than Kung Fu Hustle. A love letter to friends is better than a love letter to other movies.

I heard that Kim Soo-hyun actually cried due to the film's negative reception. And I honestly cannot blame him.

For reference, some of the films came out in film festivals in prior years, but all movies were theatrically released in 2023. That's why the dates aren't always consistent.

While writing this script, I find myself constantly sidetracked by his numerous allegations, lies, political controversies, and everything else surrounding him. There exist an entire Seagalogical sub-genre on YouTube, that's how much of a meme Steven Seagal really is.
