The word "to" is getting more and more emphasis with every new video 😂

I like how the movie establishes the protagonist as an avid reader that immediately pushes aside the bamboo book in favor of a bowl.

Deadly Chopsticks is an S tier character who didnt have nearly enough character development

This movie seems really charming, and it looks like they had a lot of fun making it

On a side note, Richard Kiel was a superb person in real life. Very kind and caring. Also, extremely funny. Very quick and dry humor. Look up some interviews with him.

We need a movie where progressively stronger and more bizarre bad guys kill each other in order to get to the hero, who spends the whole movie just sitting there, doing nothing but waiting for the movie to end.

“I’m not even mad. Just disappointed.” Dang it Mark! Not while I’m drinking! 🤣

Ends up in a river naked, you'd have to ask yourself did somebody slip something in my tea and all this was just a bad trip.

We need a Flowerfox and Queen Amidala crossover movie where they keep one upping each other with more ludicrously elaborate hairstyles.

"I better go home and clean this bowl". Ah yes, a typical night for me.

I got to admit the "Warm Sock Wish" made me burst laughing

A lot of this stuff makes sense if you understand Chinese cinema. That paper is like spell scrolls, and Chinese cinema tends to make it's magic effects bigger.

I don’t know what but the “Go-Go Gadget Arm” joke made me lose it

That chopstick bloke needs his own movie!!! :D

When you were talking about the possibilities of making things smaller or bigger I did think of something different. If you have a woodstove you could just pick up a bunch of twigs and small sticks then make them big enough for firewood. No chopping down trees, cutting them them and having to split the big logs into firewood.

Mark is getting funnier and funnier I swear

This is a weird movie made by a Japanese director and a Hong Kong director working in the Taiwanese film industry. Its subject is old-time Chinese stories of magic and legendary creatures, which is already an oddball topic. But ambitious. You can't deny they really went for... something, here. The film poster (by Peruvian-American oil painter Boris Vallejo) is right. This is an ambitious fantasy film. I'm not an expert, but I can say that lot of these story turns are really common tropes in old-time Chinese stories of the fantastic. Foxes become beautiful women to love or trick mortal men, and clever guys can find magic objects to luck into riches and therefore trouble, etc. In stories that use this framework, people also bump into old scholars who are wizards and soothsayers like, all the time. So it's like this movie just said "Yeah, we're going all in on that. Wizards out the wazoo. These Taoist fortune tellers? Also wizards. The greedy foxes' mom? Wizards. The would-be scholar dreamer? He bumped into wizards so many times now he's a wizard, too. It's practically Star Wars. Come pay money to see our movie like people paid to see Star Wars! You can tell your kids this was Star Wars."

Bravo, Mark. Lots of laugh-out-loud moments in this one. Loved the 8Ball gag.

*"I Deadly Chopsticks....have been defeated."*

I'm just saying, this is one of the movies on the show that doesn't look THAT bad...

When I was little back in the 90s, a friend of mine at school narrated a Chinese film he had watched. At the time I thought he was making parts of it up, as kids tend to do sometimes. Now, more than 20 years later, I realise this was the film he was telling me about! And to think I doubted... yeah I've forgotten his name. But thanks for clearing this up Mark!!

Timed this nicely. The chopstick throwing assassin sounded exactly like one of the Mooninites from Aqua Team Hunger Force.

THAT'S a Phoenix?!? More like a colorized version of 'The Giant Claw!'

"Where did you think I was gonna go with that joke?" That's the moment I smashed the like button xD

Maybe they need to start having telethons about the deadliness of chopsticks. Maybe we can get rid of DCS( Deadly Chopstick Syndrome). Within our lifetime.

Used to watch these kinds of movies on the USA Network back in the 80s. On Kung Fu Theater.

At the end I thought he was gonna go "so I guess you are benefitting from my misery...like the whole purpose of this show"

"Wolf, jackal?" Fox. Foxes are trixters who can take human form in some Asian mythology.

That 900yr fruit is from ancient Chinese mythology and it gives eater immortality. If you live long enough to get one

This sort of weirdness is not uncommon for 1970s/80s Chinese movies

this looks like a Taiwan production. Some of them are prominent actors/actresses in the 70s. Back then Shaw Brothers HK produced more elaborately choreographed sword fighting flicks, so this might be one that ride on the trend then to squeeze in some movie goers' spendings. Back in the 70s asian cinemas were packed with audiences. But at that time, Taiwan is more famous in churning out romantic flicks helmed by the 2 Chins and 2 Lings (incidentally one of the Ling became Jackie Chan's wife till today). But to be fair, Taiwan did produce some excellent kung fu flicks like burning of the shaolin temple, the crippled masters etc.

If he wants to stay rich. He better leave them hoochies alone.

21:53 That's Flower Fox's true form. It's showing that she's not actually a human, she's a Huli jing, a Shapeshifting Fox Spirit.

You are a Deus Ex Machina for my procrastination.

" I'm not mad, just disappointed" .. someone seems ready to raise kids! :D

9:33 not signs, they are talisman to attack/defense againt evil, it's very popular in chinese culture. i think this movie very funny, and with Mark's comment and narrative, it's make me laughed alots xD

Doing great with the jokes Mark! Thanks for the warm sock!

Killer Palm has Hands of Fate just like Manos. Fat lot of good it did him.

"Probably not strong enough to break out of that friend zone huh?" Savage Mark is savage!

Much love to you, mark. Thanks for posting this it always makes my day

I think the animal overlays are to establish the women were fox spirits

Mark, your deadpan face at 8:46-9:01.... glorious! Couldn't stop laughing. These little moments keep me coming back. Good shit.

The magic 8 ball: all your expressions through it how happy you were when it said yes lol!

I love the realism in this movie, not one character had any morals to adhere to.

Mark, this may be your best writing, yet. You keep growing. Pleasure to be in your camp.

5:32 I like how each Villain just keeps killing each other after giving their dialog, one after the next. 😂👍

06:12 *Deadly Chopsticks, money is my game. I'm all about that paper, bitches, noodles and fame*

Nothing better than coming home from work and seeing a new upload!

this channel is way underrated! So funny! I love it.

I believe in the *Prohecy of 1 million subs for FanboyFlicks* and that "dive" tho, got to hurt haha

"Hardcore oven mitts", I lost it there

I literally had to ball out laughing for like 5 minutes, at the fact the Deadly Chop Sticks was killed by a deadlier opponent.

Welcome back *TO* the show!!

Actually pretty entertaining movie. Nice acting and costumes. Special effects look authentically to the time. Strange plot, mostly likely based on couple folk fairy tales. I think this one deserves a seal of approval.

I've been with you for a long time my dude. Glad you've been posting more regularly!

Deadly Chopsticks is the first person I've heard deliver a threat fitting of an ASMR video.

The part where the assassins kept getting bumped off by more interesting ways of bumping people off was reminiscent of Bruce Willis' character in "Pulp Fiction" as he kept finding better weapons to dispatch the kidnappers who had intended to rape him.

It looked like the whole thing was the inspiration for The Never Ending Story...the entire magical part of the story was the book he was reading the whole time! I don't know why he stripped naked and jumped in the water when the story was done, though. That's weird. Unless he got wrapped up in the book and decided it was time for a paperback and a bath.

Been going thru your videos… love your stuff… this was even funnier than per usual… kudos!

You know that Bobs Burgers episode that has the family trying to dub a film? I’m getting those vibes here. It all makes so much more sense in the original translation or the original language. And yet, the heart is still felt. I feel like the laughs still land where they were intended and you can feel the love. It’s beautiful really. Getting choked up here. Need my fan to hide behind…

Mark has so many Dad-isms in this episode.

Mark deserves more than a million subscribers!

“Trying to be all smart and fancy and shit.” Good one, Mark...you crack me up every time.

"Let's take a nap first!" - that's the right job for me. I can also paint signs on paper, so where do I submit my application?

This movie looks awesome. I love the part where the sizes of things change constantly at 12:49

The actual name of the movie in Chinese is Wu zi tian shi meaning “The Phoenix “

You definitely deserve 1million subscribers, Mark. Keep up the great work 👍

The fact that Mark still hasn't reached 1 million subscribers is criminal.

Thanks for the new video, I really enjoy your works.

Always look forward to your vids, love em!

There's another really bizarre Chinese cinema movie I once watched called "Child Of Peach." Here's part of a critic's review: "Just when you think you have it figured out, the soundtrack belts out a synth version of the Adams Family theme music or someone has to fight a life size marionette made of giant peaches that shoots urine out from its navel."It's truly insane. Look it up!

Practice chopstick safety, everybody!

I would LOVE to see a movie that is 100% dubbed by Mark!!!

I’m gonna address the elephant in the room and ask Mark if he knows his logo looks sort of like the tardis from a glance?

Man! I was just getting into Deadly Chopsticks’ vibe. Then he’s DEAD!

Just came here from your Mac & Me video, from 2014. Great to see how you've grown since then.

You can always count with my like, Mark

This is the most underated channel

Stumbled upon this channel a few days ago and been binge watching every video since!

Absolutely love your videos man

Mark touched on a very important regarding hiding your valuables in plain sight, as per the example of the magic bowl under the false flowers. I once had, I mean a friend had one of those diversion or disguised safes that looked just like everyday items, such as a can of soda or hairspray. Well this frIend had one that looked just like wd-40, because "who is ever going to think to look for the, ahem... 'valuables' in a spray can of wd-40, right? But the problem was not the thieves but everybody else! For example my neighbor, I mean my friends neighbor would always want to borrow the wd-40, or his wife wanted him to use the wd-40, or friends would come over to his garage and pick it up just to exclaim "wow, does it really do everything it claims"? So much so, that my friend got another can of real wd-40 but that only made things weirder because the neighbor would say "I don't wanna use up all the brand new can, shouldn't I just use the older one?" The wife said "why do ya have 2 cans? You're acting strange." AND his friend said "this new can doesn't have the straw built-in to the nozzle, and the detachable straw keeps falling out. Why can't I just use the other can?" It caused too much anxiety, or maybe it was because of what my friend stored in that safe, so he stopped using it and tried to sell the safe on Craigslist (remember that fun?) but he had to answer questions like "does the wd-40 really spray out? Are you selling any safes that don't look like the most useful thing in the house? And even, "that's a dumb place to put stuff!" So the moral of that story is "don't do drugs". That's what my friend said. What was this movie about?

He didn't end with anything. I mean he has a restaurant in his tsunami stricken village, he could open up again , and because every other business-owner has been swept away, he would have no competition. No patrons either, but .. it's a start.

Oh yes new video keep it up Mark the greatness that is Weird movies with our homie Mark.

Not sure how I missed this channel, so glad that I came across it! Let the binging commence in 3..2..1....

Love your videos and humour dude! Thanks!

That bowl is a Chinese sampo!

Mark, thank you so much for taking a look at some of these classic martial arts films. They are my favorite weird movies❤ I shared my favourite with you on Twitter hope you like it.

I love how every killer has a more flamboyant costume than the one before

Mark, I really like where you're going with the whole hunger, sandwich solution. But I'm thinking? Create a Human sized soft shell, blue crab, that's my personal favorite. Or or King,Snow, Stone etc. Why as big as a human? So I can battle it of course! Can you imagine winning that duel?! would need to increase the size of a stick of butter afterwards too. Maybe a lemon and a garlic clove as well

oh man the bit with "deadly chopsticks" made me laugh so hard xD

Director "Sam Arikawa" was in fact Sadamasa Arikawa, who worked on Godzilla movies under Eiji Tsuburaya and ultimately succeeded him as effects director for _Son of Godzilla, Destroy All Monsters_ and _Space Amoeba._ He also directed and/or supervised FX for _Mighty Peking Man_ and the 1978 series _Monkey._ This film would be his last effects-supervisor job and the only film he directed.

Your best work yet. Vape Queen? Fantastic!

I can't be the only lover of classic British sitcoms whose ears pricked up at the mention of sisters Violet and Hyancinth.

Officially subbed after this one homie!

I don’t know why I lose my shit at Mark saying “Mo Money Mo Problems”, but I can’t help but laugh my ass off 😂

Omg ...had to pause a sec...had to get my mind out of the gutter..dude your freaking hilarious 😅😅

You rock dude. Liking and commenting for the algorithm.

Another great vid. Thanks for the effort. Another great vid. Thanks for the effort.

If a beautiful Asian woman dressed like this asked me if I’d like to brush her hair, I could sit here all day and say I’d tell her no, Ya boy here ain’t no Simp son… But in reality? I’d be like “let’s get those knots out, girl… I hope I’m not brushing too hard?” Lol sad but true.

I like how you grind, and you're always on time
