Movie Battle Royale: Martial Arts Films | Ep 216

Are you ready to rummmmmmmmmmmmmmble?! We are, and this week we try a new topic with our Movie Battle Royale!

What is a Movie Battle Royale? It’s the Ultimate Fighting Championship of filmdom. It’s the Heavyweight Title Fight in boxing. THIS is the Movie Super Bowl! 8 movies enter our ring, each favorites of our four hosts, and only one film will emerge as the Champion. This week’s inaugural genre is Martial Arts Films. These are not necessarily the greatest artistic accomplishments of all-time, but they ARE our favorites. So sit back in your personal dojo as we wax on and on about what the greatest martial arts films of all time are, and eventually we will arrive at a winner – The HO Movie Champion of the World!
