This week on Entertain This!, Hayden, Mitch, and Tom boldly venture into the cinematic fever dream that is John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China. We're talking about a movie where the hero is arguably the sidekick, ancient Chinese magic involves lightning bolts and floating heads, and the true protagonist might just be Kurt Russell's unparalleled confidence in the face of utter bewilderment.

Join us as we try to unpack how this glorious, nonsensical masterpiece manages to be simultaneously one of the greatest action-comedies ever made and a solid argument for why truck drivers should probably stick to driving trucks. We'll dissect Lo Pan's surprisingly convoluted evil plan and ponder whether Jack Burton ever actually understood what was going on. So, buckle up, grab your own questionable beverages, and prepare for a deep dive into the reflex-fueled chaos. At the end of it all, we'll ask you: Did Big Trouble in Little China... Entertain This!?
