Ludicrous Speed Podcast

Hi guys, happy new year and good riddance 2016. This week were joined by our friend Gordie to take a look back at the Nintendo 64, a system which did not rank very highly on my list of classic systems. We take a look back and see if the system was actually as mediocre as I remember or if maybe it's aged well. Thanks again for all of your support. Send us an email at ludicrousspeedpodcast@gmail.com.

Hey everyone, we're back with a mini episode. This time, Roy and I discuss our opinions on the recently released, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story with our special guest, Gordie. We manage to get through the episode without any spoilers as well as pay tribute to the late Carrie Fisher. We'll be back with a full episode shortly (as soon as I get around to editing it) so until then, we hope you enjoy this mini episode. Thanks again for all of your support.

Hey gang, it only took us 2 weeks to get a new episode up. Is the sky falling? Have the seas dried up? This week, me, Biggz, and Roy invited Alex to join us in taking a look back at the films of 1986. What a great year for film, loads of great releases as well as some not so great films. We discuss how anyone in 1986 could have possibly thought blackface was a good idea, some killer special effects work, the greatest volleyball scene ever filmed and a modern kung fu class.

Hey gang, we're back. Since Biggz and I haven't had a chance to watch a movie lately, we've come up with this idea that we're calling "When We Were Young". The idea behind this is to revisit something we enjoyed as kids and reflect back on it. To kick of this inaugural episode, we invited our friend Snom to join me, Biggz and Roy to revisit the Super Nintendo game system. 2016 marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the system so we thought it was fitting to take a look back. We discuss the system itself, some of the games and go over our lists of Top 5 Best games and Top 5 Worst. Thanks again for all of your support. Send us an email at ludicrousspeedpodcast@gmail.com.

As if one just wasn't enough, we decided to go back for a second helping of American Ninja and we pulled Roy and Alex in with us. America Ninja 2...they made 5 of these movies. WHY???? If you thought the first American Ninja was unbelievable, just wait until you watch this dumpster fire. Super genetically modified ninjas, a street gang who has never seen the inside of a shower, the LOUDEST ninjas you've ever seen and Michael Dudikoff continuously finding humor in smacking this poor kid's hat down over his eyes. Please make it stop... As always, you can email us at Ludicrousspeedpodcast@gmail.com. Intro music by Chris Perez

Hey everyone, Roy's back to join us as we suffer through yet another Cannon film, the shitfest known as American Ninja. I swear we aren't intentionally doing this to ourselves, this is just the crap we watched when we were kids. This one came out in 1985...how doesit hold up in 2016? Glad you asked...this one is available to watch on Youtube for free. Go watch it and then join us as we discuss the racism, American Ninja Warrior obstacle course, gums (???), and Steve. Well...you'll see. As always, you can email us at Ludicrousspeedpodcast@gmail.com. Intro music by Chris Perez

Hey we're back with a new episode. We finally were able to get Adrian to join us for our look back at Commando. A personal favorite of both Biggz and myself growing up, we look back to see if it's still worth watching. Released in 1985, Commando was Arnold at this peak. He had just released Terminator and was pretty much the biggest box office draw in the world. An enormous body count, loss of limbs, illegal weapons, steel drums and some of the finest one-liners ever spoken on screen? Let's get rowdy As always, you can email us at Ludicrousspeedpodcast@gmail.com. Intro music by Chris Perez

Yes, we know it's been 2 months since our last episode but life gets in the way sometimes. This time, Biggz and I went back to the God of Splits, Jean Claude Van Damme for the Cannon  "classic", Kickboxer. Bad makeup, coconuts, an AC Slater lookalike, 3 months of training packed into 40 minutes versus a lifetime of training...well, you'll see.

After a brief hiatus, we're back. This time we invited our friend, Alex, to join us as we dissect Showdown In Little Tokyo starring Dolph Lundgren, Brandon Lee and the majority of the cast of Big Trouble In Little China in which buddy cops battle the Yakuza on one city block. Bad suits, no sleep, death and resurrection and a huge body count are all packed into 79 minutes of film. Yes, I said 79 minutes. This feature length film is 79 minutes long!!!! HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN??? Join us and find out.

This week,we tackled Encino Man, the modern caveman "masterpiece" starring Sean Astin, Brendan Fraser and Golden Raspberry Award Winner Pauly Shore. This film set the standards for all the nugs, chilling and grindage to come...alright, I'm lying. Biggz and I struggled with this one. Feel like killing an hour? Take a listen.

Hey we're back. A mini episode to tide you over until our next full episode. Today we are joined by our father, "Pop" to briefly discuss some of the films we "made" our parents take us to see when we were younger. Let's just say, judging by the list we came up with, they were really good sports about it. We also discuss the next movie we will be watching.  

Here it is!! This is the movie that made me want to start a movie based podcast. We are joined today by our buddy Roy for a look back at the cinematic "achievement" that is Death Wish 3. Intro music by Chris Perez.

The guys discuss the next episode and upcoming plans for the podcast.

Welcome to Ludicrous Speed, the podcast where we return to the films of our youth to see if they still hold up like we remember them. Hey we're back. This time, Biggz and I went in a more comedic direction with 1988's "License to Drive" starring the Coreys. Les Anderson decides it would be a good idea to steal his grandfather's Cadillac to take out the girl of his dreams. This never ends well..

Welcome to Ludicrous Speed, the podcast where we return to the films of our youth to see if they still hold up like we remember them. For our first episode, Biggz and I thought we would get started with a bang...or a split. 7 of them apparently. We look back on the 1988 film, "Bloodsport".
