My VHS Memories - Discovering Bad Movies
22 March 2013 10:56 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Following our interview with Dale Lloyd of Viva VHS, Tom Jolliffe looks back at his VHS memories...
Growing up in the 80s, smack back in the birth and rise of video brings back a lot of great memories. Something about video covers just had more impact than DVD covers later would. It was the days of really great hand drawn posters, the likes of Star Wars and Blade Runner, for example.
The rise of the video market saw a mass explosion of films of all budget ranges. But unlike many of today's films which skip theatres, you’d often get a lot of effort put into making a really standout cover. Nowadays there are a lot of sub-standard Photoshop botch jobs that seem to qualify for covers. Back in the video boom however, a cover really had to sell a movie.

Van Damme Is Game To Co-Star In Another Sequel, Like That “Avengers 2″ Movie
19 March 2013 7:57 AM, PDT | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »
On Sunday night, Jean-Claude Van Damme (legendary action star of the 80′s and 90′s) posted on Facebook that Chris Hemsworth (who plays Thor in The Avengers) expressed an interest in bringing Van Damme onboard for The Avengers 2.
Van Damme worked with Liam Hemsworth (Hemsworth’s younger brother) last year in The Expendables 2, another action-packed ensemble film (though this one wasn’t as popular as The Avengers was).
Van Damme’s Facebook page uploaded this photo:
And underneath it, Van Damme wrote:
“It was my pleasure to meet Mr. Stan Lee (creator of “X-Men”, “The Incredible Hulk” and “Spider-Man”) back in 1994, along with Mr. Samuel & Mr. Victor Hadida!
I read that Chris Hemsworth (star of “Thor” and brother of Liam Hemsworth, “The Expendables 2″) would like me to costar in “The Avengers 2″ movie! Well, it would be fun to play one of these types of amazing comic book characters again. »

King Of Kung Fu:Top 10 Kickers
22 January 2013 3:57 PM, PST | AsianMoviePulse | See recent AsianMoviePulse news »
This is my top 10 favorite kickers in Kung Fu cinema. It is just my personal opinion as there are many great performers out there with amazing ability also. I hope everyone likes my top 10 and please feel free to leave comments at the bottom of the page.
Jean Claude is one of the best kickers i have seen out of the Asian movie market. His jumping spin kicks are brilliant, hitting with speed and power, which would take anyone’s head off. Van Damme was also a former member of the Belgium Team that won the European Championships in 1979 in Brussels.
Some of Van Dammes best kicking skills can be watched in movies such as No Retreat, No Surrender, Bloodsport, Kickboxer, Lionheart, Double Impact, The Quest and so on. He recently starred as the main villain in The Expendables 2, which he did a great job, »
