Enter... if you dare. It's squealing martial arts and ninja death mayhem as Ali joins us to discuss Enter the Dragon (1973), directed by Robert Clouse and Enter the Ninja (1981), directed by Menahem Golan.
Each of these films were seminal in their own way, the first as a tragically premature end-point for Bruce Lee's career, and the second as a statement of intent for the then-new Cannon Films Group. But we also address such existential questions as: IS "wait... what?" the new buzz-phrase of the decade? IS there any greater joy than watching a very small man beat up a very tall man? And of course, the age old conundrum: NINJA or NO NINJA?
We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Enter the Dragon by skipping ahead to the 1:01:41 mark, and for Enter the Ninja by skipping ahead to 1:45:14.
