00:00Oh no, let's go!
00:09I think it's one of the most entertaining movies ever
00:12And one of the great martial art directors is Lee Sao Nao
00:16The Taiwan filmmaker
00:19His nickname was The Master Blaster
00:21Yup
00:22And I think his best movie is The Hot, The Cool, and The Vicious
00:27And that final fight in Hot, Cool, and Vicious
00:30When they fight Tommy Lee
00:32It's just amazing
00:34It's as fun as cinema gets
00:38Tommy Lee is absolutely the Kloskinski of the martial arts armor
00:42It's the total fucking weirdo of all time
00:46To me, I think if I had to pick his top
00:50I would go with Hot, Cool, and Vicious
00:52You know, because I think there's an aspect about Hot, Cool, and Vicious
00:56Where it's like, as great as the fights are
00:58As great as that climactic fight is
01:00And I would say actually out of all those directors
01:04The one, even more than Shang-She
01:06The one that you can count on the final fight
01:10Being a crowd pleaser
01:12The one that you can just
01:13It's money in the bank
01:14Even if he didn't really respond to the movie for the whole first act
01:18He catches you around the middle
01:20And by the end he's going to bring home the bacon
01:24There's nobody who makes climactic fights
01:27The way Lee Sound Avenue does
01:30But to me, frankly, the thing is though
01:33The story of Hot, Cool, and the Vicious works so emotionally
01:37And you get so caught up into it
01:42That it's just, you know
01:43It's that, as I've said before
01:46That orgasmic pleasure of fighting
01:49You know, by the time we get to the end of that movie
01:54That is very powerful
