Patrick Explains CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON (And Why It's Great)
🕑 Added 2017-08-17 16:39:36 +0000 UTC This series is back! And since this is the third one I guess it's officially a series now. And yes, my parents are back, too.I actually had no immediate plans for more of these videos. I was going to visit my parents this past weekend, and a week before that my mom texted me and asked if we would be shooting another video while I was there (she really gets a kick out of these).
So immediately I started trying to think of ideas, and now, three days after we shot it, here it is.
And what's helpful is that while thinking of this idea, I came up with a couple more, so expect more of these over the next few months.
The rule with this series is that the movies I talk about have to be underrated in some way, so I'm essentially arguing for people to either give them a shot or reconsider them. I realize Crouching Tiger isn't exactly underrated in that it's the most successful foreign language film of all time and won four Oscars, but I never hear it mentioned or discussed anymore, and it's a film I think is an all-time classic.
So enjoy the video, watch or rewatch Crouching Tiger, and I'll see you guys soon.

This is one of the few movies I'm considering buying on that whiz-bang 4k ultra Blu-ray along with Fury Road and the Cornetto Trilogy.
You REALLY pulled an ACE with this one dude. FREAKING AMAZING job explaining one of my ALL TIME favorite movies in the coolest way EVER.
The sequel is rubbish and for some reason Donnie Yen is fat in it.
