what happened to the SWORD AND THE SORCERER sequel?! by Sir Loin	Aug 4th, 2007 11:45:56 PM
I think it was to be called TALES OF THE ANCIENT EMPIRE. I was looking forward to that, the first film was awesome. Lee Horsley gotta eat, I'm sure.
hell fucking yes..... by Wyrdy the Gerbil	Aug 4th, 2007 11:46:37 PM
TALES OF THE ANCIENT EMPIRE. fuck yes
Sir Loin... by TheRealMoriarty	Aug 4th, 2007 11:51:17 PM
... did you even bother reading the article?
erm, guess I was wondering about Horsley by Sir Loin	Aug 4th, 2007 11:53:37 PM
He said he's making the sequel, but I was wondering if Talon's going to be the hero again. Thanks Albert, been worth the wait! :D
Mori by Sir Loin	Aug 4th, 2007 11:55:16 PM
hahaha yes, I did indeed read it :D Probably shouldn't respond in TB while talking on the phone, can't seem to multitask. Must have been all the LDS in the 60's.

Horseflesh by L.H.Puttgrass	Aug 5th, 2007 12:50:33 AM
"Harry's easier to please than a hermaphrodite with a prehensile dick." Man, that's funny. ...a prehensile dick. Sounds like something from one of those crazy adult anime cartoons from Japan.
Albert Pyun by 7Cal	Aug 5th, 2007 12:57:06 AM
Holy shit, when I read the headline I was like "I can't believe someone remembers that director's name and is using it ironically as an AICN handle. That guy made some of the biggest pieces of shit in cinematic history." I actually kind of smiled because I thought I was the only one who remembered his name. After renting Cyborg and Captain America with a couple of buddies in high school, I actually checked the director of Captain America because it was so shitty and boring it reminded me of Cyborg. I couldn't believe I was right, it was the same guy, and I identified this no-name director purely based on style. After that we avoided any other Pyun related titles like the plague. Anyhow in full disclosure I didn't know the Sword and the Sorcerer was also directed by him until reading this article, and with my vague recollections I remember it as actually OK. If that is the one with the triple bladed sword that could shoot out its blades. Anyhow at least the title "Tales of the Ancient Empire" sounds cool.
Spaghetti Western Fever Dream by Hardboiled Wonderland	Aug 5th, 2007 02:37:38 AM
For a real SWFD, watch Blueberry (also known as Renegade) with Vincent Cassel, Michael Madsen, Djimon Hounsou and Ernest Borgnine (how he didn't get a guestrole on Star Trek I have no idea). Great trip.
Joe Bob Briggs' review of S&S by jack-torrance	Aug 5th, 2007 03:30:24 AM
I'd never heard of this movie. But I'm gonna check it out after I looked up the reviews on IMDB. I read Harry's review about how much he'd love to do an audio commentary for a special DVD. And I read Joe Bob's review. He sums it up with: "At least 90 corpses. Mucho snakes. Heads roll. Minimal kung fu. one beast. No motor vehicles. Magician guy with orange fingernails. Three stars."

Pyun almost made SPIDER-MAN in the late 80's by jack-torrance	Aug 5th, 2007 03:56:08 AM
It was budgeted at $6m. Can you imagine what a SPIDER-MAN movie would look like with a budget of $6m?! Click on this link for more info about Pyun's plans to shoot SPIDER-MAN and MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE 2 back-to-back. http://tinyurl.com/2fk4l8
Pyun is a good guy. by ELGordo	Aug 5th, 2007 04:04:03 AM
Sure he's made some god awfull films but he'll be the first to tell you that. But few can beat the B-movie awesomeness that is Nemesis, Crazy Six, Mean Guns and Postmortem (which is actually pretty good, mostly because of the great Scottish cast). Can't wait for Left for Dead. Twitch.net reviewed it a few weeks back and gave it a good review.
is fun and all by conbarba	Aug 5th, 2007 04:16:17 AM
but this guy is just such a really BAD director.
TALES OF THE ANCIENT EMPIRE by palimpsest	Aug 5th, 2007 05:07:26 AM
Ahh, geek bliss. Of course it'll be rubbish, but as long as it's enjoyable rubbish, I'll be there. SWORD AND THE SORCERER even got a decent cinema release in the UK, though I doubt the sequel would. Where's Lee Horsley? Simon MacCorkindale works reqularly on TV in the UK. Richard Lynch is still playing scarred villains. Get the gang back together!
infection by The Real MiraJeff	Aug 5th, 2007 05:14:40 AM
was absolutely horrible. saw it at tribeca. pretty bad if you ask me. certainly not a dvd release to get worked up over.

Ummm by Randall Flagg	Aug 5th, 2007 05:39:00 AM
"spaghetti western fever dream with pretty serious gothic horror overlays" Wow that sounds like something I could really get behind... particularly when it gets made by J.J. Abrams and is called Dark Tower!! P.S. Blueberry sucked
S&S sequel: FUCK YEAH!!! by turk128	Aug 5th, 2007 06:00:24 AM
Whoooooooooooaaaaaaa!!!!
Captain America.... by Quake II	Aug 5th, 2007 06:02:36 AM
actually had potential until Pyun jumped forward and threw Steve Rogers into the present day (early 90's). The Nazi stuff with the Red Skull was fairly cool. The crap in Italy with the President and reporter was crap-o-la. Sword & The Sorcerer was balls out cool when I was 15. That triple-bladed sword SOLD that movie.
Albert Pyun is a horrible, horrible director... by Sledge Hammer	Aug 5th, 2007 06:17:42 AM
...seriuously he's so bad he should sue Uwe Boll for copyright infringement.
Honestly... by Sledge Hammer	Aug 5th, 2007 06:22:25 AM
He's even worse at directing than I am a typing! And I know this from experience, during the eighties and early nineties I saw way more of his movies than is considered safe for human consumption.
Wow by Forsakyn	Aug 5th, 2007 06:56:45 AM
As someone else stated I thought this was just some reader contributing an article - not the man Albert Pyun! He's made some really, really bad movies, but he's made some reasonably entertaining ones, too. As for "How does it compare to Conan, Beastmaster, Dragonslayer, and Excalibur?" Well, it's far more in vein with Beastmaster (which is odd to have grouped with the other titles you mentioned - I mean, I enjoyed it, but that was super-cheesy). So yeah, S&S is cheesy, but it has some nice nudity, and isn't afraid to make fun of itself. It's definitely a fun movie although I haven't seen it for ages. Anyhow, I'll definitely check out its sequel.
Akira Kurosawa by MRJONZ72	Aug 5th, 2007 06:57:41 AM
I never knew this guy was associated with Akira Kurosawa. I would had known based on his movies. I mean I'm sorry he might be a nice guy and all. But granted I have never seen the whole thing of Sword and Sorcerer, but as far as the rest of his movies, i have seen about half of them, and out of Nemesis, I felt that I witness some of the worse movies ever made.
You want bad? See Pyun's Adrenalin: Fear The Rush by jack-torrance	Aug 5th, 2007 07:19:53 AM
But you'll lose 80mins of your life. This movie has ZERO plot. Make that minus zero plot. Two cops chase a killer through a long tunnel. That's it. No dramatic turns in the events, no plot points, no surprises. It doesn't even have any good gore or action. Characters are not one dimensional, they're zero dimensional. Make that minus...Anyway, it's set in the US but was shot in Eastern Europe and no one on the crew bothered to change the "Policia" signs on the police cars. Hilarious.
I've always envisioned his surname... by DirkD13"	Aug 5th, 2007 08:10:26 AM

Albert Puyn´s Brain Smasher by Toby___Wong	Aug 5th, 2007 09:07:38 AM
was awesome. One of the funniest movies I have ever seen. His Captain America wasn´t that bad. His Cyborg was also cool. Puyn is ok in my book.
Nemesis & Dollman by HeWhoCannotBeNamed	Aug 5th, 2007 09:31:51 AM
Love that trash. Two guilty pleasures and I have zero shame in admitting such.
Albert Pyun should print out this article... by Ditch Brodie	Aug 5th, 2007 10:11:37 AM
...and highlight the part that says he's 99% cooler than everyone in the film industry. Then he can just start making the rounds: "Yo Clooney! You see this? I'm cooler than you." "Favreau! How's it feel to be in the bottom 99%, little man?" "Hey PTA! There Will Not Be Blood, cuz Cyborg will put a stop to that shit, BITCH!" "Brad Pitt!...Umm, just wanted to say hi."
Here it comes - the Richard Moll revival ! by Mullah Omar	Aug 5th, 2007 10:25:56 AM
I hope they dig that guy up and have him reprise his role as the bad guy. More projectile hearts, dammit!
Holy shit!!!! by DocPazuzu	Aug 5th, 2007 10:46:40 AM
That I never thought I'd ever see that bit of news is the understatement of the year! The original is terrible, but a hell of a good time with shameless gore, cheesy fantasy villains, a misogynistic hero, titty, and a balls-out attitude. Captain America and The Omega Doom.... not so much. I can't imagine Pyun will be able to find his way back to form with Ancient Empire, but I will definitely support the effort. "TALON! TALON! TALON!"
Albert Puyn & Akira Kurosawa by Mr_Incredible	Aug 5th, 2007 11:17:43 AM
Too bad he didn't learn anything from working for Akira Kurosawa.
Now THAT IS truly cool news... by Frank Black	Aug 5th, 2007 11:27:14 AM
For those of us who love Albert Pyun's work, there is nothing more satisfying than when he is recognized. His movies are better than 85% of everything else released theaterically each year.

Wnanahara7 by DocPazuzu	Aug 5th, 2007 12:06:28 PM
Actually, it was you who expressed the urge to debate with your "two fists" when you had reached the end of your rather short intellectual tether, much like that other odious Pennsylvania socialist talkbacker LambLion was fond of threatening people with from time to time when he started losing debates. Not surprising. Still, it would be interesting to hear your rationale for coming to a talkback regarding a geek cult fantasy B-movie's sequel and choosing that moment in which to launch a tirade of insults at Harry (and by extension anyone who might enjoy the rubbish). Did it make you feel smart? Counter-cultural? Perceptive? Artistic? Admirable? Cool? Aroused? Fuck you, you pretentious cunt.
I doubt that this will actually get made by PacmanFever	Aug 5th, 2007 12:15:49 PM
On a related note, yes Pyun can often be terrible, but he has made a couple of films I would consider guilty pleasures, if I ever felt guilty about liking a film.
My money's on DocPazuzu by Ditch Brodie	Aug 5th, 2007 12:26:46 PM
Unless Wnanahara7 is actually Dr. Boll. In other news, Daizaburo Harada is cooler than 99% of everyone in the film industry.

Pyun's SPIDERMAN by RenoNevada2000	Aug 5th, 2007 02:23:17 PM
Pyun's SPIDERMAN script was perhaps one of the worst pieces of writing I've ever seen. (It's still floating around the internet, though it's usually mis-attributed as James Cameron's work.) Doc Octopus runs arpuind with a heavy European-immigrant accent saying "Okey dokey!" a lot and there's some pretty blatant patriotic pandering in the finale as Spidey parachutes off a skyscraper that's shooting into space using an American flag. It was all rather odious.

The "okey dokey" SPIDER-MAN script by jack-torrance	Aug 5th, 2007 05:21:57 PM
I found it but are you sure it's the script Pyun was going to make? It's date marked '93, which is when Cameron was developing his version. Pyun was slated to do his one in the late 80's for Cannon and I found Cannon's SPIDER-MAN script, dated '85, and Doc Ock doesn't say "okey dokey" a hundred times like in the other script. The "okey" version is: http://tinyurl.com/2uo2wc The '85 Cannon version is: http://tinyurl.com/2pc6h8

Furthermore, I haven't been on the east coast of the U.S. since 2003. TheBodet is a PA guy. I'm sure he could kick your ass too, just like me, if it came down to it.

Pyun: so bad he's good by Thick McRunFast	Aug 5th, 2007 06:15:22 PM
I remember going on a binge of Pyun flicks just so I feel better about myself. I believe it ended with BRAIN SMASHER: A LOVE STORY, a true classic. I checked back in on him recently, and he's been paying the bills making those straight-to-video ghettosploitation flicks with Snoop Dogg and Ice-T. The man is a testament to the notion that if you can bring a movie in on budget - no matter how shitty it is - someone will hire you again.

The (marginal/next to nothing) T&A in SWORD/SORCERER-- by thegreatwhatzit	Aug 5th, 2007 07:35:22 PM
belonged to Kathleen Beller. She had a nude scene but it may have been performed by a body double. A fox, a bosomy bombshell. I don't think she's made a movie in 15 years (didn't she perform a "hot" nude scene, sana body double, in THE BETSY?). She's now 51. Maybe she's still pretty nuclear!

Wnanahara7 by Mr. Nice Gaius	Aug 5th, 2007 08:43:40 PM
Regarding your "response", you forgot to thank Harry for allowing you to post that ridiculous diatribe on HIS website. You know, AICN is rather lenient when it comes to banning people. So, if you've had a personal problem with that in the past, it may be because you come across as an utterly trollsome dickhead. That being the obvious case, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you have to come back someday as Wnanahara8. And that's an interesting way of deflecting the nature of your threat = providing your email and location in a clear invitation to have people "talk their shit to (your) face" while simultaneously claiming that anyone who takes you up on the offer is the one making the threat. Meanwhile, those that don't are pussies, right? Wow. Your reasoning is airtight in its insanity. You should read that link I posted earlier in this TB and then find yourself a new fucking hobby.

I would have thought it obvious. The difference between W7's typically venomous and pointless post and yours is that you took the time to phrase a coherent and legitimate gripe. I have no problem with that. However, I do find it endlessly baffling that the critics of AICN and its policies seem to think that it's okay to bash it, but are extremely thin-skinned when opposed in these opinions.
What we really need... by Tiki-421	Aug 6th, 2007 09:41:42 AM

DEATHSTALKER babes... by thegreatwhatzit	Aug 6th, 2007 10:05:45 AM
Playboy's Barbi Benton (may her movie career R.I.P.) and the late Lana Clarkson. Both were unconstrained, performing nude scenes sans compromise (the good 'ole days when nudity--in lieu of hardcore violence--was the draw). I can't believe that Clarkson, during her final days, was saddled with a $9-an-hour job as a cocktail waitress. She wasn't a particularly good actress but she deserved better. Little wonder that Benton's career tanked--if you phoned her for an interview, her manager-husband insisted that you had to literally pay Benton for a q&a session! I thought the guy was rich but go figure--!

Lost Prophet by DocPazuzu	Aug 6th, 2007 10:58:51 AM
Yes, you owe it to yourself to see Deathstalker. It's soooooo cheesy and virtually incomprehensible. There's even an outrageously funny scene where Deathstalker is involved in a life-and-death, semi-nude wrestling match and I swear to God they softened the lens for it. But please tell me you've at least seen and loved Hawk The Slayer! "VOLTAN! You will DIE by this sword!"

At first I thought "Sword and the S." was "The Warrior and the Sorceress" starring David Carradine and a woman with 4 breasts. But now I see it's not and I'm a little less excited. I think the Carradine one was written by dinosaur artist, Bill Sout, too. I probably saw "Sword..." at one point in time, too, but don't remember.
Seriously though Mori, what DID happen to TALES? by Wrath of The Tall Man	Aug 6th, 2007 03:55:41 PM
(Sorry for the probable double post.) If I understand correctly, SWORD AND THE SORCERER cost less than $4 million and made over $39 million domestic. Not sure how much it made worldwide but in the U.S. it was the sleeper hit of 1982 coming in at number 18 for the year grossing around $450,000 less than CONAN which cost over $20 million. Needless to say, it was a pretty big success. Why in the world did it take 25 years for the producers to get the sequel off the ground? They obviously wanted to make one, going as far as to announce it in the end credits. What gives? Did a rights owner die or ??? Seems the studios would've financed one if they couldn't arrange a larger budget independently. And the nay sayers be damned - THE SWORD AND THE SORCERER is pure b-movie bliss! A "bad" movie that is the best kind of cheesey joy.

Lee Horsley and David Whitaker are essential for this to succeed. Is Brandon Chase producing? I figure he'd be one of the owners of the first film and is more than likely equally (or possibly most) responsible for its success. Lastly, any poster collectors out there ever see a 14x36" U.S. insert or 22x28" half-sheet for S&S? Seems they only printed one sheets.

Anyone ever see a rolled/unfolded one sheet for S&S? Been lookin' for years.

http://www.kuam.com/news/21106 .aspx Said cool director and producer John Laing clearly ruined filmmakers likelihood to film on Guam. With lesson learned, Guam needs to properly screen filmmakers in the future seperating d-list director hacks from highly accomplished auteurs. oh yeah and the movie's direction, editing and plot sucked ass.

Yup, seen it, love it. I miss cheesy shitty films. bad movies nowadays seem to be actually bad, and not in the least bit enjoyable.

what are you talking about? My love for crappy films is well established- See the Sex and the city TB for examples (Troma are great!) I have no beef with you (You're not ringy) and stand by my original post, I was just answering a question, and adding my needless 2 cents.
BTW- I hate to do this as it is prime TB dickhead by Lost Prophet	Aug 7th, 2007 06:04:17 AM
behaviour but it's "clique" not click. Clique is amall exclusive group, whereas Click is what you do to a mouse button.
The funniest thing about you, W7... by DocPazuzu	Aug 7th, 2007 10:18:50 AM
...is how thin-skinned and vain you are. You'll post what you think are withering, rapier-like attacks on people, but follow them up with cocolopezisms which amount to "And now I'm through with you tools - flame predictably away!" in the hope that we'll have been shamed into refraining from such posts, thus leaving you with the last word. When we then simply ignore your disguised pleas, your poor self-esteem makes you return anyway, time and time again. What a little bitch.

Well, since I'll be one of the first people in line to be "put to the sword" by you and MinusPenithII after your glorious revolution I figure I'll enjoy myself until then. So suck it, you deluded, sociopathic, preening, pussy-fisted bitch.

I see you typing, but all I hear is slurping.
"a walking dictionary of teenage taunt." by DocPazuzu	Aug 7th, 2007 01:01:36 PM
Apparently you can't resist taking the bait over and over again, much to my endless delight, so let's see if you actually mean it this time. Bitch.
hahahaha! by DocPazuzu	Aug 7th, 2007 02:40:35 PM
What's it like, W7, chewing your knuckles, trying not to give in to the urge to respond? It must fucking kill you to allow yourself to be manipulated by my posts to the point where no matter what you do -- post or not -- you end up dancing to my tunes.
