  • 95. Ep95 - Scott Pilgrim vs The World (2010) with Simon Feilder

    01:37:09||Season 1, Ep. 95
    Today we are joined by Simon Feilder from fellow action movie podcast Dodge This. We look back on the 2010 movie Scott Pilgrim vs The World, a zany and wacky flick from Edgar Wright based on the graphic novel of the same name. A stellar cast, fantastic fight scenes from Brad Allen backed up by some great visual effects. This movie may be 16 years old but it still feels very relevant and modern.Action Addicts Links: https://linktr.ee/actionaddicts

  • 91. Ep91 - Battle for Saipan (2023) with Casper Van Dien, Louis Mandylor and Brandon Slagle

    01:51:33||Season 1, Ep. 91
    Joining me this week we have a trifecta of talent that is somewhat unbelievable. Here to discuss an underappreciated movie that flew under a lot of peoples radar we have a man who is used to having people yell "KILL EM ALL!" at him as part of his daily life, it's Casper Van Dien. We have boxer turned actor and director Louis Mandylor and we have returning guest, actor turned director Brandon Slagle.We are all gathered together to discuss a 10 day torture session they all experienced which was edited together into a movie titled 'Battle for Saipan'. I loved every moment of talking to these guys and getting to speak with Casper and Louis was a huge moment for both the show and myself personally. So sit back, relax and enjoy some crazy stories, great memories, the comradery and the laughter of todays episode.
  • 90. Ep90 - A Conversation with Peter Shinkoda

    02:26:08||Season 1, Ep. 90
    Today we sit down and spend a couple hours talking with Peter Shinkoda. Most recently starring opposite Scott Adkins in Prisoner of War, soon to be sharing the screen with Bob Odenkirk in Normal. Previously you could find him as Dai in Falling Skies, Sektor in Mortal Kombat Legacy and of course, Nobu in Netflix's Daredevil. You can also see him as Ben Takeda on Salvage Marines but we don't really talk about that one. We talk Prisoner of War, being directed by Louis. His experiences in the pandemic, the state of the industry, cultural differences of east and west, his very early work, perfecting accents and random bits in between.
