    We&#39;re here for Ninja Swords of Death for title alone. Otherwise uncertain wait to expect from today&#39;s #KungFuSat https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/447806 Definitely grateful for dubbing so I can follow whatever plot there is while I work on lunch.

    Been here for Duel of Gold, today&#39;s #KungFuSat but eating lunch and reading subtitles. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/66019 This one is as advertised on the tin which is more than fine by me.

    I&#39;m here for today&#39;s #KungFuSat, The Bride from Hell. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/187380-the-bride-from-hell I am hoping for zany shenanigans and fantastic set pieces. I&#39;ll take schlocky silliness if the is all it has to offer.

    Settling in with lunch and #KungFuSat. This week is an old school one, The Condemned. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/199296 So far, just enough plot to move to the next set piece. And some funky beats.

    Settling in with today&#39;s #KungFuSat, The Martial Arts Kid after making and eat lunch. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/316822-the-martial-arts-kid About as expected but with a cast of old martial artist favorites.

    I am here for tonight&#39;s #Monsterdon, The Bat. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/35813 Always interested in anything with Vincent Price. Bonus Agnes Moorehead, a few years before she portrayed Endora. This seems pretty similar in structure and tone to last week&#39;s movie. Would have loved a Last Drive-in Episode for this one.

    Settling in for #KungFuSat and always up for a documentary. This time Films of Fury. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/129175-films-of-fury-the-kung-fu-movie-movie Not sure about the format but trying to give it the benefit.

    Winding down late with yet another watch party. This week&#39;s #Monsterdon is a real stinker, Sting of Death. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/85233-sting-of-death The music is especially bad, especially when the kids are dancing to it. That last one, I wanted to dig my own ear drums out.

    We missed last night&#39;s watch party but are here for #KungFuSat. Today&#39;s pick is Unleashed, aka Danny the Dog. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/10027 I haven&#39;t seen this one and am always here for a Jet Li movie. Bonus: Bob Hoskins and Morgan Freeman.

    Is that the Puppeteer&#39;s Art, puppeteering a meat shield? #KungFuSat

    &quot;Please! I can&#39;t be the suspect! I&#39;m clearly the himbo comic relief!&quot; #KungFuSat

    Joining #KungFuSat for today&#39;s movie, The Mysterious Inn. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1407741 Or Cold Rain Sword apparently?

    We&#39;re here for #KungFuSat, Buddhist Fists and Tiger Claws. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/568638 I know we used the right link but TMDB doesn&#39;t mention Godfrey Ho. Thought we had the metadata for the wrong movie but seems not. Doesn&#39;t make the plot make any more sense. This is the way.

    We missed lat night&#39;s watch party because of a family gathering. We are here for today&#39;s #KungFuSat, The King of the Kickboxers. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/68895-the-king-of-the-kickboxers This is a different kind of bad. Has a sort of earnestness.

    @SesameSquirrel@mastodon.social Lifelong (implied) training montage. #KungFuSat

    We skipped last night&#39;s watch party for a date night but are here for The Eight Masters, this week&#39;s #KungFuSat. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/90546 Eager to see Carter Huang and the synopsis appears suitably ridiculous. @kamikat@dmv.community wants to see implausible weaponry. I agree that would be a fun bonus.

    Ten billions units? Surely they are not *all* units. At least some are certainly tools. #Monsterdon

    #today will unfold however it must. A good week of determination and accomplishment. Weekend brain is very welcome, aided by an empty $dayjob agenda. Another sunny day, would go out for another run if I hadn&#39;t done so yesterday. Tomorrow if the weather holds. Looking forward to a day of coding and flow before starting my weekend. I&#39;ll get out into the sun and read as much as my day allows. I have a few hundred more words for the fiction I&#39;m currently working on, may wrap that up...

    I have seen Hawk the Slayer, tonight&#39;s #Monsterdon, many times. I even re-watched once recently, first time since I was a kid. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/25628 I was surprised at how well it held up. I doubt I will stay up for much of it tonight, it is a late start local time. Tickled that it was selected.

    Joining #KungFuSat a little late. From what I&#39;ve seen so far of Shaolin Intruders, seems like the usual Shaw Brothers fare, i.e. random but fun. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/60568

    I love Saturday morning cartoons. Even in the afternoon. #KungFuSat

    We&#39;re here for #KungFuSat and looking forward to some Shaw Brothers style fun with Swift Sword. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/66752

    I am intrigued from the start with The Chinese Mack, today&#39;s #KungFuSat, starting with the introductory voiceover. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/479158 Is this going to be a kung fu life instructional film?

    Yet another #Monsterdon I&#39;ve never heard of, Zarkorr! The Invader. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/106070 Unlikely to stay up for all of this one but I am curious enough to check out at least a little.

    I am here for #KungFuSat and enjoying Have Sword, Will Travel so far. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/90022 Not posting much, working on some LEGO to relax after a rough week.

    Never even heard of In the Year 2889, tonight&#39;s #Monsterdon. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/74837-in-the-year-2889 In theory, this could be fun. Sixties sci-fi, directed by a self proclaimed shlockmeister. In practice, I am already confused. Seems like we just kind of jumped in mid-story with these people.

    So far Heaven and Hell is my favorite kind of #KungFuSat complete with minimal and/or nonsensical plot, outlandish costuming, ridiculous dialogue, and great, old school set pieces. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/95990

    I&#39;m not sure if I&#39;ve seen tonight&#39;s #Monsterdon, Class of 1999. Certainly seen similar, schlocky movies in the vein and vaguely high school themed. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/23535 If I have seen this one, I am sure it would have been with appropriate comedic soundtrack or additional commentary.

    Joining #Monsterdon a bit late. Never even heard of Seedpeople. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/92779 Seems about par for the course for schlocky early nineties scifi/horror.

    I definitely haven&#39;t seen today&#39;s #KungFuSat, The Kid with the Golden Arm. Title sounds like an 80s Disney movie but so far, appears to be all Shaw Brothers goodness. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/13513 Just enough plot to connect the set pieces. And all the Venoms apparently.
