Coming Soon: Paramount, Disney, and Fox are Changing the Game

Coming Soon: Paramount, Disney, and Fox are Changing the Game

Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party, and today is a special Coming Soon edition of the show; a more news oriented episode that typically focuses on movie news and developments. However, today I'm looking at the major shifts that are coming in the Streaming landscape. Paramount Skydance is on the hunt for Warner Bros. Discovery, Disney is doing away with the Hulu app, and Fox is getting in the game with an attempt to buy Roku. Along with weighing in on these changes, I also give my take on what I think Amazon, Apple, Universal, and Netflix should do in response, and ultimately, what we, the consumer, should do next.

Ninja Assassin

"Are you kidding me? That's the word you're afraid to say? Ninja." Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. In today's review, I sit down to discuss Ninja Assassin starring Rain. Ninja Assassin is often remembered as an unoriginal ninja flick, but is there more that this movie has to offer? The answer is a definite yes. While going over the cast, crew, and story of the flick, I also cover the deeper topics of this film like abuse, surrendering to authority, and breaking free.

The Last Dragon

"When you got the Glow, you fear no one." Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. In today's episode, I sit down to review the listener suggested Barry Gordy's The Last Dragon starring Taimak and Vanity. The Last Dragon is a beloved cult classic serving both as a post-Blackploitation film and the end of the Bruceploitation era. It has more storylines then I can count, an obviously great soundtrack, and the coolest villain era to be in a movie.

Double Dragon

"There's a reason why it's called martial arts and not martial science." Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. Today, we are Going to the Arcade once more to deposit our quarters into the Grandfather of the Beat 'em Up style of games, Double Dragon. This family friendly and star studded film is often overlooked for continuity issues, corny dialogue, and directionless decisions by the production team. But is Double Dragon really that bad?

Never too Young to Die

"Look, I'm not that bad. Really. I don't know why I do the things I do. I guess it's because... I love it!" Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. In today's review, I sit down to cover what may be the most B film ever to come out, Never too Young To Die starring John Stamos, Vanity, and Gene Simmons. This is a must see to believe film. Just a year away from the debute of Full House, John Stamos stars as a teen spy trying to figure out who killed his dad and stop a hostage situation at the hands of Gene Simmons. It's a sexy, dated, and goofy adventure that will leave you laughing and cringing.
