Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (Extended)

You can blame the MCU for giving the good people over at Street Fighter HQ the idea they could make a series of prequels leading up to an actual Street Fighter movie. Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li from 2009 tells the origin of Chun Li as played by Kristin Kreuk as she takes on the villainous Shadaloo headed up by the always Irish M. Bison. Hilarious and baffling movie all round with an incredible performance by Chris Klein and the inclusion of some of your favourite characters like Balrog and Vega handled completely wrong. There’s a lot to unpack with this one and I’m not even sure we covered it all. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie (Extended)

1994 gave us two video game to movie adaptations of Street Fighter, Street Fighter starring Jean-Claude Van Damme, which, although fondly remembered now, was much maligned at the time for being cheesy and inaccurate, and the anime adaptation Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie. The second of which adheres much closer to the video games and managed to turn a tidy profit despite a limited release. It’s famous for brutal fight scenes, a wide character roster and a completely out of nowhere Chun-Li nude shower sequence. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Blade Runner 2049 (Extended)

There are very few legacy sequels that match or potentially surpass the original, often they end up being tired retreads of what came before. Blade Runner 2049 is one of those few exceptions, coming 35 years later and helmed by Denis Villeneuve it reintroduces us to the ruined future with updated elements like more compliant Replicants, AI girlfriends, horrendous poverty and Harrison Ford in a t-shirt. It also has Ryan Gosling as K doing his own version of Blade Running around with hologram Ana De Armas. Incredible movie. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Soldier (Extended)

In between Blade Runner, original Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 there exists a movie positioned snugly in the middle, set in Ridley Scott’s groundbreaking universe. 1998’s Soldier, starring Kurt Russell and directed by Paul WS Anderson, was written by Blade Runner scribe David Webb Peoples and incorporates many elements from the 1982 original directed by Ridley Scott. It’s mostly small visual cues and blink and you miss it easter eggs, but this is unmistakably supposed to take place after the origins events from 2019. None of it makes the movie better. Doesn’t make it worse, though. But it’s still all not very good. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Blade Runner (Extended)

It’s impossible to list all the visual design elements, tropes and world building that Blade Runner had on popular culture upon its initial release in 1982. Despite bombing in a most spectacular fashion Ridley Scott managed to literally redefined the future of sci-fi despite the atrocious Harrison Ford/Rick Deckard’s voice over. Here we look at the definitive version from 2007 that restores original scenes, removes others including said voice over and changes the ending in a manner that completely alters the meaning of the entire film. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review and be sure to return next week for the follow up! It’s not Blader Runner 2049.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (Extended)

Our long and winding tour down the Resident Evil road is coming to an end with The Final Chapter. Time to say goodbye to Milla Jovovich’s Alice and the one or two other characters that they bothered to bring back in this sixth entry. The stakes have never been higher! The clock is ticking on the 27 people left on planet earth to release an anti-virus which would stop all the Resident Evil in its tracks. And there’s secrets to be revealed! Secrets that don’t make any sense especially if you’ve been paying attention to any of these movies which we have sort of. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Resident Evil: Retribution (Extended)

We’ve been looking at the Paul WS Anderson/Milla Jovovich Resident Evil movies for what feels like one hundred million years. And it’s a crying shame that all of us are coming to realise that these movies might not actually be good. In addition to Alice coming back as always we also get the return of Michelle Rodriguez, Colin Salmon and Oded Fehr characters confirmed long dead. PLUS the introduction of more beloved game characters Leon S. Kennedy and Ada Wong! All this feels like it should add up to something but we’re sorry to report that is not the case. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Resident Evil: Afterlife (Extended)

Oh no it looks as if the Resident Evil movies might be on the decline after the incredible (by Resident Evil movie standards) third entry. Paul WS Anderson finally returns as director for Afterlife, a movie that takes some elements from the previous movies (Alice clones, the character of Kmart, not being able to remember your memories) and hits the ground running in what many are describing as a movie they might have seen around the time it came out but it’s actually impossible to say. It does have the first appearance of Chris Redfield as played by Wentworth Miller. But don’t get attached. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

Resident Evil: Extinction (Extended)

The end of this third entry in the franchise officially marks the halfway point of our look at the six Milla Jovovich/Paul WS Anderson Resident Evil movies. And it might just be the highpoint of the series. Undead crows, dried out beef jerky desert zombies, a Mad Max setting plus the inclusion of both Claire Redfield and Albert Wesker, essential video game characters! These movies are good and will almost certainly without question remain good from here on out. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (Extended)

We are off and running with our look at the six Resident Evil movies! Well the six starring Milla Jovovich as Alice and either produced or directed by Paul WS Anderson. Second up is Resident Evil: Apocalypse the entry that is most closely tied and based on a specific video game from the series. Jill Valentine joins the team and we get the introduction of Nemesis, a big gross mutant guy with a secret past I’m not sure the movie even tries to keep secret. And there’s a lot of running and jumping and shooting etc. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Resident Evil (Extended)

On the eve of a brand new Resident Evil movie from director Zack Cregger we aim to achieve something heroes only dream of, taking a look at all six movies from the original series. Beginning with Resident Evil from 2002 it introduces us to a world separate from that of the video games lead by Alice (Milla Jovovich) and directed by Paul WS Anderson whom would return for later entries in the franchise. And boy is it a sight! Laser hallways, kicking zombie dogs in the head, red AI girls I guess. Alright. Let’s get started. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Space Jam 2: A New Legacy (Extended)

It’s a very upsetting time for us all having to revisited Space Jam 2. I mean sure it stars four times champion NBA superstar LeBron James plus the Looney Tunes plus every IP Warner Brothers has ever had their sweaty hands on (Game of Thrones, The Matrix, Gremlins, Harry Potter, Clockwork Orange, IT, Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, The Joker, Rick & Morty, Mad Max etc). The result is a more Ready Player One than Roger Rabbit which some people might like but I don’t like that. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review

Looney Tunes: Back In Action (Extended)

Looney Tunes: Back In Action has been much requested since we covered the original Space Jam in 2021. And in the lead up to Coyote vs. Acme in 2026 and in the spirit of blending live action with 2D animation here we are. And oh my goodness this he Brendan Fraser we love him! It also has Bugs Bunny and we love him also! And it’s got spies which we also love and Batman which we love and running around which I guess we love and aliens which alright and a monkey crystal that turns people in to monkeys which wait maybe this movie isn’t good? Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!
