I can't believe this wasn't done in favor of Superman III. This is so much more bonkers. Fucking love it.
I mean Menahem Golan produced this glorious piece of shit. Need I say more?

But if they did Bloodsport, then they can do Timecop. Like Bloodsport is one of his best movies ever but it still resulted in a great episode. We Hate Movies podcast did Timecop for one of their eps, and likewise, it is one of their best eps.
Â
Maybe Timecop seems a bit too understated in comparison to Bloodsport for me. But sure, I'd gladly take a Timecop episode!

I second this recommendation. This is the first movie I have ever seen where the main henchman was a lesbian and JCVD whups her ass for raping the love interest. Blew my mind when I saw this as a child.
Â
The second movie that is peak JCVD is Timecop. It is the high nadir of JCVD movies. Random sex. Splits. JCVD inexplicably playing an American. Good fights. And Ron Silver as the bad guy. So good.
Â
Timecop is pretty good. Like, legitimately so. Probably too good for HDTGM? I re-watched a bunch of Van Damme movies in December-January and I was surprised at how decent it is.

Paul & co, if you're by any chance reading this; for your next Van Damme flick (that I know you wanna do) make it DOUBLE IMPACT.
JCVD plays himself and his twin brother in it and if that's not a thing you wanna see... Well, just know that you won't regret it.

My god, this episode. Having Nicole Byer on it is like having a female Mantzoukas and you would think that'd be overkill BUT IT AIN'T.

I created that list for the show!

Awesome! Thanks, Leo.

I'm at 60% myself, not too bad!

Anyone here who uses the service (or prefers alternatives)?
There's even someone who made a comprehensive list of all the films HDTGM covered over the years:

I like using it a lot, add me if you're on there!

This thread is kinda personal to me cause in a couple of movies van damme would say he's from Quebec. I believe the writers thought is was the only place to justify his accent.
Â
Quebecers were in love with van damme during the 90s for it.
Â
Not as personal as it is to a Belgian like me.

My personal top 3 golden age JCVD movies (I recently rewatched a bunch of em):
1. Bloodsport
2. Double Impact (JCVD is having so much fun in this and totally pulling off playing twin roles)
3. Kickboxer
Â
Timecop is also quite good, but not even in a bad way.
-
Long overdue, easily the best Van Damme movie and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.
-
I can't believe they haven't done this yet.
Â
Holy shit how the fuck did this shit get made? Brolin, Fassbender, and Malkovich (who looks like the goddamn Shaggy Dog) in an 80 minutes long DC Comics-based theatrical feature. Also is it just me or does Megan Fox always look like she's got an anti-noise filter on her? Stupid, bizarre, uninvolved dialogue. Answering a question with another question? Fine. Scripts are for nerds anyway.
-
It's one of those that fits into the same category as Con Air; ridiculously awesome, awesomely ridiculous.
-
It's not actually about how movies were made, just trying to find entertaining stuff, right? Anyway, it's always a gamble. I've seen some good-bad stuff when I was expecting bad-bad, and vice versa. Pre-internet stuff just has a higher hit rate because, well, like you said people were dumdums.
-
Seconded. Double bill with Virtuosity!!
-
The dub for this elevates this insane movie to even insaner levels of awesome.

PINK ELEPHANT!!!!!!!

Bump for glory.

Arizal movies are pretty boss, sadly I don't see these getting done...
-
this was pretty bad, but not the good kind of bad like the first one which they should definitely do

Cheating, but there's just a LOT I could think of that I'd love for them to cover. These could all work as double bills.

I am totally on board for a Virtuosity/Ricochet double feature.

So, Teen Witch.
I hope someone addresses the fact that Robyn Lively's character in Twin Peaks has eerily similar powers (over men). I bet David Lynch saw this movie and figured I gotta get me some of that Teen Witch in mah tv show.

I kinda passed on The Quest on my recent JCVD marathon because it seemed skippable, but I guess I'll be watching it after all then.
