for me, Bloodsport is the one movie thats gets the message 'strength comes from within' across the best. I also love the theme of honoring your mentor.
Thank you Honest Trailers for never losing your touch and making us laugh for all these years. But most importantly, for never letting the “Alan” scene from Jurassic Park 3 ever be forgotten.
We ABSOLUTELY need more vintage movies for you guys to hilariously eviscerate with your epic voice!! There's a whole bunch of films from the 80s and 90s which aregenuINE *GOLDEN NUGGETS* for an Honest Trailer.
One time I was in the storage room for all the Mechanical Engineering Senior Design Projects. One had a complex truss structure made up of 2 x 4s. One of the planks was lying horizontal. So I jokingly made a gesture of positioning myself to raise my right hand to break the board karate style - in front of my friend. He said, "Bottom one!"
I'm so glad they picked up on the young Frank wearing the San Francisco Giants hat and a NY Giants shirt. Some costume designer didn't know their sports teams
That line just riffs off Bruce Lee's line "boards don't hit back" in Enter the Dragon (1973) - which also starred Bolo Yeung - when O'Hara smashes a short plank.
I first saw this movie around the time Snopes was new and blowing everyone's minds, watching this with my buds and being amazed by Dux, then reading up on him straight after was one of the funniest things ever
Yeah, this movie was so awesome and the characters were so iconic, we ignore Frank Dux for being a complete troll. Maybe that's why this movie worked so well because it was completely made up!
Jean Claude Van Johnson is basically the finest film made by this dude. They only did 1 season...yet the comedy and stunts in that form is just epic. I truly love that show. The amount of self awareness and the absurd premise is beyond inspired.
Thank you SO much for granting my request by saying the line I requested last week, Epic Voice Guy!!! This is the second time you’ve done it and I couldn’t be more honored!!! At 7:03 😎
lol me too. It's been years since i've seen this movie but still... seeing this trailer made me realize how "not top secret" the kumite actually was ^^
1:09 Gentlemen, welcome to Kumite. The first rule of Kumite is: You do not talk about Kumite. The second rule of Kumite is: YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT KUMITE!
You guys should have added Tucker Carlson's resting baffled face along with his hilarious laugh. Roasting Tucker would have been so easy. I wish I was there to help you.
Frank Dux in reality was trained by Tanaka a master of bondage bukake hence why he had to blur his memories of his trauma. He replaced that memory instead being trained by a martial arts master then sold it to Holyweird
Thank you, honest trailer, for not doing the latest release film that we all haven't got around to seeing yet! These classics are the best ones you do...in my opinion
I just love the fact that Frank Dux included the supposed record of “fastest kick with a knockout” at 72mph. Seriously, how would anyone know that? Did this weird underground fighting tournament in Hong Kong have a radar gun that only measured kick speeds?
Damn, haven't seen this movie since I was a kid. Definitely need to go back and watch it now! But minus 2 points for not working in the phrase "Van-Damage"
Epic Voice Guy's rendition for the MORTAL KOMBAT scream was spot on. My brain kept waiting for the sweet music. In fact, I'm going to listen to it now.
About the Battles and James shirt, to be fair, there was a fair amount of liquor-oriented apparel among children back in the 80s. It was common to see kids wearing Corona hats and t-shirts, for instance.
That Tucker Carlson impression was both brilliant and terrifying 😳 EDIT Just by saying his name I've summoned acolytes in the replies. It's like invoking a demon.
"These guys with one or two small momments, but boy do they make them count" section was pure genius, the hand gestures guy and the "Ok USA guy" helped make this a 10/10 movie
I like the idea of co-sponsors at an secret underground tournament. "Brought to you by planters nuts, for when you a quick pick me up after your nose has been busted open. And by James Affordable Laundry. Need to get the caked in blood out of your shorts in a short time? Come to James Affordable Laundry off Lamb St and Provencial Dr. And now, to the match."
Laugh all you want but I'm watching this again on my next day off. Still better than 99.5% of Netflix. And then I'm watching Tombstone for the 43rd time.
Is Val Kilmer still your Huckleberry? Lol That movie really is insanely awesome tho. The mindf&*king aspect of val kilmer's character is crazy. Bro knows how to mess with drunk people without killing them instantly.
Shout out to Space Ice for helping us all remember and enjoy JCVD's thailand bar dancing. That said, how dare you call those micro-cheek twerks off beat, have you no shame Honest Trailers?
I love the "top secret -- but everyone knows about it" gag!
They're worse at keeping their fight club "secret" than Fight Club. Don't you guys know the first two rules of Fight Club?!
this probably the idea behind "fight club rules
@@jbvader721 The first rule was something like.. erm.. "No one talks about deez." The second rule was just "Fight club," if I recall.
When you are in that circle its like everyone knows about it.
😂😂😂
Losing his bearing and chuckling at the "based on true events" portion and the "still evil blood tasting" gag, made my day
I think that was scripted, but it was still awesome! Jon Bailey is insanely talented.
Made your day? How sad are you
Yup! I almost spat out my green tea!
Frank Dux was a fraud
@@Al-ok1lj Def spit-take worthy moment right here!
Actors who are only on-screen for a few seconds but make the absolute most of their moments are the best! :)
Paco was always my favorite. Lol
My head read that in Ryan George's voice ("Pitch Meetings" guy) 😂
OK USA guy! Hell yes!
You forgot the Muay Thai hand taunting guy.
wow wow wow wow wow wow
"...and was too dumb to realize that the NY Giants and the SF Giants were two different teams..." I laughed so hard at that.
💯
for me, Bloodsport is the one movie thats gets the message 'strength comes from within' across the best. I also love the theme of honoring your mentor.
Which country are you from because no English speaker respects this movie
Best dc movie
"Purposefully hurts people in this no holds barred hurting people tournament, " may be one of your best lines yet.
I was in stitches. I've watched Blood Sport so many times, but never thought about that piece like that!!
right 😂😂
Like why they are mad at him, it makes no sense before the final fight.
I think it's more like it's OK to kill someone in the fight but doing it after you've clearly already incapacitated them is distasteful.
It's admirable how Van Damme can still do splits in his 60s.
Not really. his stunt double did them in thst universal soldier sequel a decade or so ago
It's fine, he's 60. age happens
@@tiffanyi5645 sort of, he was strapped in with a lot of safety equipment. He's not doing it all on his own
The difference is, it’s involuntary now.
@@jeffkleist9679 Obviously he has to be careful due to his age, but my point stands. He can still do splits.
Those ballet lessons really came in handy.
Thank you Honest Trailers for never losing your touch and making us laugh for all these years. But most importantly, for never letting the “Alan” scene from Jurassic Park 3 ever be forgotten.
3**
Alan!
It’s the best!
@@superanimeniac thanks for the correction!
Alan who? ;-P
Discovering this movie on vhs was on of the best feeling ever. Me and my friends watched it so many times.
if you were a male born between 1980 and 1990... this entire film is committed to memory and considered a sacred viewing document.
I still have it on VHS and the player to go with it. 😅
Watching this and, Remo Williams: The adventure begins, with my dad were two of the best bonding experiences we've ever enjoyed!
We ABSOLUTELY need more vintage movies for you guys to hilariously eviscerate with your epic voice!! There's a whole bunch of films from the 80s and 90s which aregenuINE *GOLDEN NUGGETS* for an Honest Trailer.
Totally agreed.
You had me at NUGGETS.
And I do TOTALLY agree, we need Honest Classic's!
Iron Eagle
Multiple threatening hand gesture guy had me in tears
It's a shame he didn't show the next part, it would have really been funny.
@@Joreel homie lasted all of two seconds LMAOOO 😅😅😅
The Bloodsport version of the Raiders bazaar scene. Classic.
Ahh man. Those old action movies. Bruce Lee, Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Van Damme, Jackie Chan, Jet Li and so many more stars. Sweet memories
See?
I told you the 80's was a glorious era.
The 80s was an awesome decade to be a teen in... So many good action films, songs, and goofy shows.
@@Joreel And Transformers.
The Consoling yet Sobering Doctrine of Sufficient Grace by Sensus Fidelium.
@@jeuryrabassa4724 Too bad all of the best movies with these guys were not from the 80s
They even bring back the talking raptor scene....thanks Honest Trailers, you make my day. 👏💪
Love the Allen Raptor!
All hail our raptor overlord
*A L L E N*
LOL 😂
„Ghost Dog: Origins” is the best credit ever.
'Sword Art Offline' 💀💀💀
This movie was my childhood. Watched it a thousand times. The music so fantastic. Still got it in my playlist
I was 17 when this movie came out and even then I recognized bullsh¡t when I saw it.
Terrible movie 😖
@@keithsj10 everyone's entitled to their terrible opinion.

@@perfectsplit5515 Gold!
Ditto mate, ditto!
I'm so glad they picked up on the young Frank wearing the San Francisco Giants hat and a NY Giants shirt. Some costume designer didn't know their sports teams
I still use the line "Very good, but brick not hit back.". That movie is an absolute classic.
That line just riffs off Bruce Lee's line "boards don't hit back" in Enter the Dragon (1973) - which also starred Bolo Yeung - when O'Hara smashes a short plank.
This honest trailer made me want to watch Bloodsport again after years! Thank you, guys!
"haunt your dreams like a raptor on an airplane" needs to be a line in a rap song.
*A L A N*
I was so scared we had seen the last of "Alan". This brings a smile to my face.
Every time I close my eyes I see it. The island will always haunt you.
You can worry if Hollywood ever decides to never film another airplane scene or bad dream scene, but until then...
Definitely a fun one in Van Damme's catalogue of movies. Especially for the faces the fighters make.
What're you talking about, Van Damme has atleast like 10 good action flicks
There is a terrific video out there that debunks everything Frank Dux claims to have occurred in his life.
Napoleon Blownapart made a who documentary about him. It's fucking great
@@badger297 yep that's what I was thinking of
This has to be the single greatest episode of Honest Trailers I have ever seen.
I must do a reaction video! lol
5:35 "Before you realize martial arts dont work" I'm a shorin ryu black belt, and that absolutely killed me the truth in it.
🤣🤣 I swear “Alleyway laughing guy” is now in my top 5 favorite characters in movie history! 🤣🤣🤣
At this point, I associate "Alan!" with Honest Trailers more than Jurassic Park III.
I think we all do! 😆
If anyone has yet to see JCVD, that movie is actually really fkn good, shows his best acting yet
That's not saying much. His "best acting" was mediocre.
@@robertromero8692 whaaa…?? What about when he played twins? Shoulda won an Oscar 😂
The Amazon show is good fun, too. Shame it only got one season.
*laugh in splits*
@@bradmarchant7822 that was Danny Devito I think, but their likeness is uncanny.
I first saw this movie around the time Snopes was new and blowing everyone's minds, watching this with my buds and being amazed by Dux, then reading up on him straight after was one of the funniest things ever
I just love the part about how a 60-round, single-elimination tournament would have had something like 27 quadrillion people in it.
This is one of my all-time favorite episodes and there have been so, so many great ones.
Yeah, this movie was so awesome and the characters were so iconic, we ignore Frank Dux for being a complete troll. Maybe that's why this movie worked so well because it was completely made up!
The word is "fraud" not troll. Troll's do it for the lolz. Frauds do it for profit.
@@InfernosReaperI mean, he's both.
Probably my favorite Van Damme movie
Low bar but sure
He wasn't known for his high class acting skills 🤔
I like No Retreat, No Surrender where he basically doesn't talk and is barely on screen.
Do watch the series he made.
This is how you make an absolute clusterfck of a movie and its still awesome
Your Goddamn right
@TwinTurbo Ray I use to type “my x what?”
In this case “my goddamn right what?”
@@twinturboray His X right deez
And the sequel/reprise: Kickboxer!
Jean Claude Van Johnson is basically the finest film made by this dude.
They only did 1 season...yet the comedy and stunts in that form is just epic. I truly love that show. The amount of self awareness and the absurd premise is beyond inspired.
I literally remember hand gestures guy so well after all these years.
The honest trailer nobody asked for but the honest trailer we all needed.
lots of people asked for it though. The start of the video showed a lot of the comments literally asking for it.
You can literally see who's asking at the start of every Honest Trailer videos
When cliches go wrong
OMG, I've been waiting so long for this one. I hope they do more classics Honest Trailers, its why we all followed this channel in the first place.
You've opened the Van Damm floodgates here, ya gotta do Kickboxer! I don't know what's more iconic, the final fight or his dancing! 🤣
0:54 “With the loosest hamstrings in the West…”
So you never heard of Rob Van Dam?
For those of you that know how to give suggestions, make Screen Junkies do "Cobra" by Stallone. The trailer for it seriously sound like the SJ voice.
Yes! I love Cobra!
@@inspectorevo5704 Who doesn't? Best movie ever.
Making an honest trailer for the movie "Nobody" is super easy, barely an inconvenience. You should do it.
Wow wow wow... Wow
Making honest trailers is tight!
_Oh, referencing another popular web series while watching another popular web series is_ *TIGHT!*
Hey you need to get ALL the way off their back about this
You're lost
Didn't expect the alan raptor to show up. LMAO got me good.
"I love you, my friend.....even though we met a few days ago." 4:03
The Tucker Carlson breakdown was the icing on the cake lmao bravo sir
Yep. It’s so “brave” to sneer at the right. Wholly original.
@@lilliedoubleyou3865 He didn't sneer at "the right." He made fun of Tucker in particular. No one else.
@@aderi31415 Why not make fun of Biden?
@@MrAkura1984 How would that have worked with a reverse racism joke? Tucker talked about that frequently. Biden, not so much.
@@MrAkura1984 is the little snowflake gonna cry?? lol maybe you need a safe space
Thank you SO much for granting my request by saying the line I requested last week, Epic Voice Guy!!! This is the second time you’ve done it and I couldn’t be more honored!!!
At 7:03 😎
Damn that was awesome! I guess I never realized how "top secret" the Kumite really wasn't. You have to do more Van Damme movies.
lol me too. It's been years since i've seen this movie but still... seeing this trailer made me realize how "not top secret" the kumite actually was ^^
Lionheart would be a good one
"Okay USA!" is one of the few movie lines I have had everyone recognized when using it randomly in day to day events.
Since you mentioned it...gotta do the "Ninja Cinamatic Universes"
I rewatched thismovie last year and its still badass. It sucks that we dont get these types of movies anymore.
1:09 Gentlemen, welcome to Kumite. The first rule of Kumite is: You do not talk about Kumite. The second rule of Kumite is: YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT KUMITE!
YES! This movie is perfect 80's ridiculousness
Yes!
Gotta say while I love every Honest Trailer, this one I had to immediately rewatch because I was laughing so much the first time 😂 so good 👏
The Tucker Carlson bit is sending me.
honestly..one of the best Honest Trailers of all time. thank you. still laughing at the "kumate" montage
you forgot the cat always meowing in the crowd all the time
This is still the GREATEST (American) MARTIAL ARTS MOVIE EVER MADE!!! (Not starring Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, or Jet Li)
The Tucker Carlson bit had me rolling hahaha too real
You guys should have added Tucker Carlson's resting baffled face along with his hilarious laugh. Roasting Tucker would have been so easy. I wish I was there to help you.
Frank Dux in reality was trained by Tanaka a master of bondage bukake hence why he had to blur his memories of his trauma.
He replaced that memory instead being trained by a martial arts master then sold it to Holyweird
This is a movie everyone should see, one of my absolute favorites to this day!
Thank you, honest trailer, for not doing the latest release film that we all haven't got around to seeing yet! These classics are the best ones you do...in my opinion
How has it been that this movie has not been honest trailered before now!? hahahaha what a gem!
I just love the fact that Frank Dux included the supposed record of “fastest kick with a knockout” at 72mph. Seriously, how would anyone know that? Did this weird underground fighting tournament in Hong Kong have a radar gun that only measured kick speeds?
Seeing my comment in the beginning made me feel like I won an award...then I realized this AWESOME video was the award!!!!
For Richard Belzer, say "Yeah...do you think I'll never be cut out for the married life?"
I grew up with this movie and I still love it to this day. 🥰🥰
It’s so nostalgic for me that I consider it one of the best movies ever.
3:47 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…… that caught me off guard!!!!
Hah, the Benny Hill vibe, that was HILARIOUS.
"Ghost Dog Origins" is top tier comedy
Now do an honest trailer for Commando
Aka Ahhhhnnnooolld kills everyone and tries to outbond James Bond one liners, I let him go.
My thoughts exactly, how is this not done yet.
He's dead tired
No chance
They mention it on the commentary.
Someone watched this closely to catch both the Giants thing and the guy falling in the wrong direction.
Guy falling in the wrong direction is one of my favorite moments of this film.
Best episode ever. This episode should be nominated for an Emmy or a Golden Globe or something. 💯
I second that! 🙋🏾♂️
Ah, I was waiting for a shout out to the Bloodsport Mentos meme...back before there were memes, that WAS the best.
Thought FOR SURE actual E. Honda was gonna get a shout out
Please do Kickboxer next. I think it's his most iconic film.
Not even top 3
KICKBOXER! AFTER THIS TRAILER! YES PLEASE!
PURE SCHMALTZ
@@TheSportsCoreyou wish.
@@Heroofthesand Timecop > Universal Soldier > Double Impact > Bloodsport > Kickboxer
Damn, haven't seen this movie since I was a kid. Definitely need to go back and watch it now!
But minus 2 points for not working in the phrase "Van-Damage"
It’s my favourite film of all time, older brother had it on DVD and watched it all my childhood, it’s so camp but just the right amount of camp
You should look at the channel space ice
If you weren't in junior high when this came out on VHS you can't grasp it's awesomeness.
Epic Voice Guy's rendition for the MORTAL KOMBAT scream was spot on. My brain kept waiting for the sweet music. In fact, I'm going to listen to it now.
This movie sits on the highest peaks of "So bad its good" if you stop to think about the plot you are watching it wrong
Needed a Honest Trailer and Space Ice mashup for this masterpiece! It would've been so Van Damme good!
Space ice yeah i like that one too
This is my favorite Van damme movie, happy to see it get featured here 😊
2:29 That Tucker Carlson monologue was hilarious! 🤣
It’s a pretty accurate impression
I've never seen Bloodsport but I had to pause this video several times because I was laughing so hard. Now I have to watch it!
0:27 A knockout tournament with 56 stages… I’m pretty sure that would have to involve the population of a small country for the contestants alone. XD
ahh this took me back, so much nostalgia. loved this movie and love this trailer haha

damnit. I spit my drink out with that one lmao
I can't believe there's no mention of the random cat meows throughout
Does anybody remember the movie Death Becomes Her? It deserves an Honest Trailer.
That movie single handedly made me not want to live forever.
Love that film! They’re remaking it I hear 😭
I remember watching it with my friend when we were 10 years old. We spent the whole weekend fighting for sure.
Forrest Whitaker just pops up in the most random of movies😂
And here I thought Battlefield Earth was one of the weirdest movies he was in.
"These guys with one or two small momments, but boy do they make them count" section was pure genius, the hand gestures guy and the "Ok USA guy" helped make this a 10/10 movie
huh....I think I knew all the meme's references and gifs from this without ever once knowing the title. Lol
Haha one of the best trailers yet this one got my funny bone!
I like the idea of co-sponsors at an secret underground tournament.
