Martial Arts movie classic Bloodsport just finished on HBO. I was a huge fan of this movie, and looking back, it's probably the only Jean-Claude Van Damme still worth watching. Guess it's not that hard to believe, but it's been 19 years since Bloodsport was released. Pretty long ago, huh. Forest Whitaker is there too, with all the typical mediocre acting popular in the 80's. Bloodsport also has one of the best villians in a martial arts movie, Chong Li played by Bolo Yeung. I always felt he was one of the coolest characters, and a good role model. "CHONG LI! CHONG LI! CHONG LI!" What I didn't realize until I looked him up on IMDB is that he was already 50 (!!!) in that movie. I don't know if they got his birth year right, but if so, that makes him a freakin' muscular 50-year old.

Well, in any case, as bad as that Bloodsport may seem now, it has always been one of my favorite movies.
