Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more!
This week, Jordan, Ryan, and Chris dive into the iconic "A Better Tomorrow" Trilogy, which was recently released on a stellar 4K box set from Shout! Factory. We discuss the the 1986 original and the 1987 sequel, both directed by the legendary John Woo and are responsible for shaping his cinematic style and announcing Chow Yun-Fat as an international movie star. We then round out the conversation with 1989's "A Better Tomorrow III: Love and Death in Saigon," which sees Tsui Hark (a producer on all three and a great Hong Kong director in his own right) take the directorial reigns and serves as a prequel to the first two.
You can find this and future episodes - as well as subscribe to our show - on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeartRadio, and more! Drop us a rating or comment if you feel so inclined, and you can email us at [email protected] if you have any questions, comments, or just want to say hello.
