Movie Roadhouse

Postby Chowfarn on Fri May 15, 2009 5:45 pm

I was over at a friends place the other day.
He put on an old DVD - Roadhouse with Partick Swaze.

He does the most tensed up, oiled body version of Taichi I have ever seen ..............

Keep it up, Fong. It'll only be that much better when you are crushed in SF4.

That movie is a classic.

But watching it is a little like a moped, "fun to ride, but you wouldn't want anyone to see you on one." ;)

I'll never forget that defense against kicks. Grab the fool's ankle and run!!! :o
