50 Most Rewatchable Movie Scenes - 23. Bloodsport - Kumite: March Madness, But With More Kicking

Bloodsport

YouTube - Fight to Survive

Another 80's underrated movie. Another mostly fighting movie. Jean-Claude Van Damme doesn't have a ton to do here outside of the circle (rectangle?), but he does his best with his limited language. Acting is not where the movie shines. It shines in the fights and nothing is finer than the montage to the Kumite song. It's very good and gets the nod here, but reminds me of a commercial inside the movie for a better movie. Speaking of commercials, this has always been hilarious to me.

The second round of fights is good, but doesn't have the same catchy beat.
YouTube - Kumite! Day Two

My second rewatchable scene would be the training flashback. Just like Kill Bill previously, or Karate Kid or Rocky, training montages will always be my favorite.

Finally the end fight is epic.

50 Favorite Adult Swim Characters

I tried to get a good variety and yet be fair to what I like the most. I'm sure there are one I've missed and some that might be surprising but if it aired on Adult Swim - I can use it. I didn't use any characters from either Robot Chicken or Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! as they are basically clip shows and while good, the re-occurring characters aren't used enough. Also, it turns out H. Jon Benjamin is the voice for half these shows. 50. Chains     Fat Guy Stuck in Internet 49. Assy McGee    Assy McGee H. Jon Benjamin plays the mayor. 48. The Mayor    Tom Goes to the Mayor A Picture of Jeff Goldbloom instead of the Mayor, but this was by far the funniest thing on the show. 47. Inuyasha    Inuyasha 46. Satan     Lucy: The Daughter of the Devil Wears Bill Cosby sweaters and is always trying to kill his daughters boyfriend DJ Jesus. Yeah... One of the H. Jon Benjamin voices...

My Top 100 One Drop (CC) Creatures (20-1)

Vexing Devil Giving an opponent a choice is never a good idea. However I really feel like it's win win here in the aggressive deck. A 4/3 for one will almost always be worth a card. So the real question is - is it worth a card to deal 4 damage for a red? It's not quite Flame Slash good in a control deck, or as great top deck as Thunderous Wrath but better than Thunderbolt or Lava Axe . 19. Scute Mob Not a true one drop. But by turn six hopefully you are going get a hydra-like insect that will quickly get insanely huge if not dealt with. My biggest issue is that it doesn't have trample. It's still a great costed creature that can do some work if unchecked. There are lots of ways to give it Trample in Green not named Rancor . 18. Dragonmaster Outcast And yet another non-true o...
