This really makes me wanna break out my Hong Kong Action Theater guidebook, a super-cool TTRPG I picked up in Kansas City in the '90s. #FrightClub #ABetterTomorrow

That floral print furniture set 😄 HI WE'RE IN YOUR LIVING ROOM IT'S THE '80S #ABetterTomorrow #FrightClub

I have no idea what's going on but there's lots of fighting and even more blood, plus vintage cars and a giant wrench, so I'm having a good time #ABetterTomorrow #FrightClub

TIL that Kit's boss Inspector Wu is actually Inspector John Woo! #ABetterTomorrow #FrightClub

They're beatin' the FAT outta him. #FrightClub #ABetterTomorrow (1986) 🇭🇰

Kit is the kind of guy you can always trust to make a bad situation worse. #ABetterTomorrow #FrightClub

Wait. Was that a tin of butter cookies with actual butter cookies in it?!? Those things are awesome. #ABetterTomorrow #FrightClub

We male #AAPI #ChineseAmericans have few positive male movie icons. heroes.

For us #Boomer Chinese-American, this was #BruceLee, who died far too young. Not only did he have a white wife, he was a "bad dude" & dispelled the negative sexual stereotypes of Asian men that still exist.

While I don't think he's the greatest Asian hero of all time, as the following article suggests, #ChowYunFat was a successor to Bruce & his partnership with John Woo is akin to that between Mifune & Kurosawa but while significant within the genre of Asian action films, far less groundbreaking than the Japanese collaboration was.

In any event, if you never seen #HardBoiled, #ABetterTomorrow & #Killer, you should make the effort to do so, because they are ground breaking movies in the modern #HongKongMovie genre & are essential to a full understanding of Asian action films.

Clear position, I repeat myself: #Films like #ABetterTomorrow or, for example, #TheKiller quickly make it clear how pathetic #Hollywood #trash like #TheFastandtheFurious or the stupid #JohnWick actually are. I cannot take apologists for such junk seriously in terms of #film. #filmsky #movies

Next rewatch: #TheKiller No, not #Fincher's rather boring #film on #Netflix! I seem to have lost control over my life. I am confusing #ABetterTomorrow with #BulletintheHead. The latter was my favourite at the time. What it looks like today, I haven't seen the #films for a long time. #Filmsky #Gunfu

Rewatching #JohnWoo's #Hardboiled. The opening scene alone offers more wild #action than other #thrillers in their finales. Let's see how well the rest works today. I was really into these #HongKong #Gunfu #bangers back in the day. #ABetterTomorrow was among my #faves. #filmsky #movies #thriller
