• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Jackie Chan Fight Club. Tonight, we're
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: going to be watching John Claude Van Dam versus Mickey Rourke,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: the final fight in the movie Double Team with John
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Claude Van Dam and Dennis Rodman. You might be wondering,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: why the hell are we watching a John Claude Van
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Dam fight scene and a Jackie Chan fight club movie
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Fight Club about Jackie Chan. Well, not a lot of
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: people know this about JCVD, but he was actually inspired
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: by Jackie Chan to become Chinese. That's actually the reason
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: why he sounds the way he does. A lot of
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: people think it's because he's from Belgium, but that's actually
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a fake story that he came up with later. JCVD
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: is originally from Florida. He tried to become more Chinese
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: so he could be like Jackie Chan, and his voice
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: just ended up kind of sticking like that. So in
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: order to cover up his failed transaction to China to
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: be to become a Chinese guy, he just said that
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: from Belgium and that explains away his funny voice. So
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: this movie Double Team, it's about John Claude Van Dam
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: and Dennis Rodman teaming up to fight Mickey Rourke to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: get John Claude Van Dam's newborn baby back. But before
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: all that happens, JCVD he's a secret spy in this movie.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: He has to pretend like he's dead, so the secret
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: spy agency makes him live on an island where he
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: will no longer be able to contact his pregnant wife,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: who has a soon to be newborn baby in her belly.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: So he gets pissed off about this and escapes from
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the island. He goes and he seeks out Dennis Rodman.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Dennis Rodman's character lives at a gay night club that
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: also doubles at a test as a tattoo parlor. JCVD
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: finds him getting a son tattooed around his belly button.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: He's just like, hey, I heard you're good at weapons.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I need weapons to get my baby back or something,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and Dennis Rodman hooks him up. They go They track
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: down Mickey Rourke because Mickey Rourke kidnaps jcvd's wife and
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: has some secret doctors help her deliver their baby, and
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: then he kidnaps the baby. And that's kind of where
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: we're at right now. Before This clip is just a
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: quick summary just to get you guys caught up. In
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: case you haven't seen the movie, I would definitely recommend
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: going out and finding this movie. You gotta watch Double
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Team with Dennis Rodman and Jackie I mean, John Claude
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Van Dam. So here we go. JCBD comes sprinting in
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Mickey Rourke sweep kicks him. Interesting choice here we see
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: with Mickey Rourke. Honestly, he's got one of the best
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: fight outfits on that you can imagine. He's got dress
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: slacks with like a Texas belt buckle and some dress
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: shoes I believe, or maybe they're cowboy boots. Another interesting
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: thing we noticed right away is Mickey Rourke has a
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: plethora of stunt doubles on hand and maybe JCVD. Actually,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: now that I'm seeing this, the JCBD ones weren't as noticeable.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: But this little tackle scene there doing right here doesn't
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: look like either man in my opinion, and so they
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: get crashed over this wall. It's time to throw down.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: These boys are getting rowdy in this coliseum. So yeah,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Mickey Rourke kidnapped his baby. He brought the baby to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: a coliseum to I don't know what he's gonna do
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: with the baby. Actually, I think he's going to raise
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: the baby as his own. Oh yeah, I totally forgot
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: so Jase. Earlier on in the movie JCBD, they set
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: up like an operation or something to catch Mickey Rourke
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and bring him to prison or whatever because he's a
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: bad guy. And the whole thing goes to shit and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Mickey Rorke's child gets blasted with machine guns or something
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: like that. So now he's like, all right, you killed
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: my kid with machine guns, I'm going to kill your
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: kid with a tiger. So he has a tiger that
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: he's trying to like make the tiger eat the baby.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I guess, Oh yeah, before this, I guess I forgot
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: to mention he also made JCBD fight the tigers. So
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: before fighting Mickey Rourke, John Claude van Dam has already
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: kicked a tiger's ass, and so they're fighting in this
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: little hallway. Now we get some great stunt stunt man
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: work here. Stuntman made bank off of this. Mickey Rourke
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: did not want to fucking actually fight this guy in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: this dusty tunnel, and I don't blame him. He'd be
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: hacking that shit up for weeks if he was really
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: in there. Oh my gosh, look did you see all
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: those kicks to the abs that he took. And this
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: guy he's like the leader of the secret spy club
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that JCBD was trapped at earlier, so he's he's trying
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: to help and he's trying to help find the baby. Damn,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I think I missed something. Actually, let me get back
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: to that hallway scene, because there was something I noticed
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: last time, where like they're fighting in this narrow hall Okay, yeah,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: here it is, and JCVD does this this unnecessary spin.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Let me just show you one more time here real quick,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and this time I'm going to see I don't know
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: if I'm allowed to do this or not. I'm going
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: to try to slow down the playback quality speed or whatever.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: You know, Let's see how slow we can make it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: How so does that make it? Actually, because I really
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: want you guys to get a good idea. So Mickey
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Rourke's kind of whooping his ass, putting it to him
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a little bit. But you know, JCBD is just waiting
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: for a counter, smokes him with the uppercut. Of course,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: uppercut to a spin kick classic combination, kicks him across
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the hallway, spins again. Doesn't throw anything there though. If
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you notice that spin that fucking oh Man classic JCVD
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: spin fake out move. It's like a you know how
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: boxers faint or people faint. If you're JCVD, your faint
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: is doing a three sixty spin for no goddamn reason
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: at all. And then he just hits them with a
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: jump roundhouse kick to finish it off. Just kidding not
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: to finish it off, because he also has about five
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: or six kicks to the abs that he needs to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: hit him with before. So they get their ass busted.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Back into the colisseum. Dennis Rodman runs out instantly steps
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: on a landmine and if you're thinking landmine, you never
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: mentioned land mines before. Also, great stunt double shot there,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: great pause action on my part to catch them. Definitely
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: not Mickey Rourke. He's not oiled up enough to be
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Mickey Rourke right now. So Mickey Rourke's characters see these
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: crosses over here. He put a bunch of land mines
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: all over the colisseum, and he marked them with crosses.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I guess so that his character want to step on
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: them on accident, just just in hopes that maybe while
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: they were karate fighting, JCVD would I don't think he
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: expected Dennis Rodman to run in here and steps straight
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: on a landmine. Though that is a crazy decision. Here
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: we get some excellent karate hands by Mickey Rourke. You
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: just see that again, Yes, that is a professional karate hands.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: In my opinion, Vandam does a great job defending Dennis
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Rodman's honor by not letting him get blown up into
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: red dust with the land mind. So he kicks the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: fuck out of him. He does a great mid air
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: foot catch to stomp down. Actually, we might need to
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: watch all of these and half half playback speed. Let
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: me just I just want to see that. So he
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: roundhouse kicks his foot and then brings it back down
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: to a stomp, just to It's almost like that Disney
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: movie where the guy's got his shoes pinned down in
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: the hallway and he's like, here in Texas way appreciate
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a nice pointy boot. That's what that reminds me of. There.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: And they're just having a little sex off right now,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: a little sex stare going. Oh tried hit him with
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: a short elbow, but jcbt's got kicks for days. And
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: all this happens so fast you only honestly kind of
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: need to watch it. In point twenty five playback speed Rodman.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: He's screwing in a pin so that he doesn't get
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: blown up. Oh, I think that's his nipple rings actually
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: that he's using to hold the land mine down with.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: So that's smart. That's probably why he gets all those
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: piercings and shit, he knows that they'll come in handy
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: for combat situations. Straight up, background House kicked to the spine,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: spinning back, kick to the spine, and Mickey Rourke isn't
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: even faced by that shit, He's got too much oil
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: on him to it's really protecting him from any of
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: these kicks. All the kicks are going to slide right
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: off of his body. That definitely hit him too, actually,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: so I'm sure he probably got pissed about that. And
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: this is another just amazing moment right here where we
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: see John Claude van Dam hit him with about twenty
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: kicks or so, let's just go ahead and watch him
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: so much so he gets right to the armpit. Three
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: kicks to the tits, one to the lips, once to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: the tits again, one to the lips again, then he
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: does them up. How was that even the same leg
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: that he threw his foot was facing the other way,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: It's like he threw a right kick and then his
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: left kick hit him in the face. So he's just
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: dusting his ass up bad with all these round house kicks.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: He's pissed, you know. And what's crazy is he just
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: took like seventeen kicks to the face and chest and
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: stomach and the only thing that's wrong with him is
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: that he's mad and he has like a scratch and
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: a bloody nose. Other than that, he's perfectly fine and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: ready to fucking keep throwing down with JCBD. And you
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: know what, he might have the last laugh here because
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: he just gives him a little shove, does some more
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: karate hands to really like scare him and fake him out.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: But what his ultimate goal was to push JCBD onto
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: a land mine, and that's what he does. He's like, oh,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: you're on the land mine, now that you're gonna blow
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: up like Dennis Rodman. I guess he hasn't even noticed
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that Dennis Rodman isn't on a landmine anymore. But to
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: his surprise, he actually steps on a land mine and
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: now he is the one who is fucked. So there's
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: bad news for if you're a Mickey Rourke fan. Tonight,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Dennis Rodman hits him with the looks like you're the
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: bitch now, starbros. And so uh Dennis Rodman Uh. He
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: explains that like, yeah, well, you guys were fighting and shit,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I moved some of the crosses around and now you're
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: gonna Now you're gonna die. You're gonna get blown up
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: by one of your own landmine tricks. The tiger comes in.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: JCBD is like, look out, the tiger's back. He cann't
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: find the baby to eat the baby, so now he's
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: gonna eat one of these motherfuckers into the coliseum. Tiger's hungry,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: and so they're like, shit, we gotta find the baby.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: This guy's gonna blow up the whole fucking colisseum pretty
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: soon because the tiger's gonna eat him and he's gonna
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: have to step off the land mine. This guy's like, yo,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I found your baby. I'm here too. Now you guys
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: didn't know I was here. I am Mickey Rourke. He's
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: just like, damn, this tiger's gonna eat my whole dick off,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: and so he just what's his foot off? The land
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: mine blows up the whole coliseum. One thing I wasn't expecting,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: was I know, there's probably a bunch of land mines
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: in there. Honestly, great effects going on right here. I
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: didn't really expect the land mines to blow up the
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: whole building like this, but apparently there's enough land mines
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: in this place to shoot giant firewalls through the tunnels.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And this next scene right here is probably the classiest
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: product placement scene in any movie that I've ever seen.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: So earlier on in the movie, they're fighting in like
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a carnival and JCVD does like a giant or a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: jumping like switch kick through a bunch of coke cans,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: you know, like in slow motion, and I thought that
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: was going to be the top placement Coca Cola seen
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: in this movie. But what we find out is that
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the people building these coke machines have designed them for war.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Because this nuclear explosion is chasing them down the hallways.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: They got soda cans flying everywhere. Coke machine's going fucking crazy.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Dennis Rodman grabs one and uses it as a shield.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: And think about this, The explosion is big enough to
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: move the staircase, to blow down these stone walls and
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: shoot fire all through the building. Yeah, it's completely destroying
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the building, but this one coke machine is armored heavily
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: enough to protect three men and a baby from this
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: giant firewall explosion. Yeah, keep in mind the wall, All
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: that fire is going by them. John Claude van Dam
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: is holding a newborn baby, and I shit you not.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: The baby gets kidnapped the day that it's born. So
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the baby, the baby has got to be like not
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: even a day old, and he's just exposed to like
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: a ton of C four detonating right into his fucking
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: face with John Clod Van Dammoldingham and JCB. He's just like,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: that's my boy. You know, my boy's gonna be kicking
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: fucking ass straight out of the womb. You know what
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. He's gonna survive explosions, get a Coca Cola
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: endorsement right off the bat, become friends with Dennis Rodman,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: My baby kicks ass, and that's pretty much how the
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: movie ends. Thanks for joining me on episode four of
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: the Jackie Chan Fight Club. Next next time on the
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Jackie Chan Fight Club, We're going to watch one of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Jackie Chan's oldest, most underrated karate films,
