Movie Club: Feat. @MarBeChillin

movieclub2

NOTE: Due to the amount of distractions (Orange is the New Black, NBA Finals, Game of Thrones AND NHL Finals), the #MovieClub discussion for Week 4 didn’t happen. Instead, we’ll mash week 4 & 5 discussions together this Sunday. That way we’re all caught up. Sorry for the inconvenience, but you know, life.

Week #5:
Til this day I haven’t seen Fruitvale Station because I feel like it would upset me, but it IS this weeks pick so I’ll catch it regardless. Thanks to @MarBeChillin for this weeks movies. Stay posted on the #MovieClub hashtag on twitter for any possible changes to the discussion time (Game of Thrones & The NBA finals might throw a monkey wrench in it again.)

[Short Film] Kung Fury

Screen shot 2015-05-31 at 6.44.22 PMCinematic masterpiece? Perhaps. The greatest film of the last 30 years? Good chance. Enter ‘Kung Fury’. I was first introduced to it during last years Kickstarter Film Festival. (I posted about there here like a year ago.) It was successfully funded within its first 2 days, bringing in over 600k in donations. That was literally 400k over their actual goal. For good reason.

Kung Fury is a 80s action comedy with some of the most over the top fight scenes you’re bound to find in a movie in this lifetime. While it barely clocks in over 30 mins, I promise they squeezed more than enough in there to hold your attention. Everything from Gattling Gun toting Vikings to Eye Laser shooting Velociraptors (Jurassic Park WHO?!) to  Killer Arcade Machines. Seriously, it has it all. Oh, did I mention Thor? Yeah, Thor’s in it too.

To sum it up, Kung Fury is a bad ass renegade cop full of corny 1 liners who must travel back in time to kill Hitler (Yes, you read that correctly.) Did I mention Hitler know’s karate? No? Well, he does. If you’ve never landed in a perfect split after jumping well over 300 ft in the air, then maaaaybe this isn’t for you. The rest of us however? The 8million + views in 3 days speaks for itself. Now that I’ve prepped you, click play below and spend possibly the best 31 mins of your life.
