Slug Street Scrappers

[cualltaigh]

So, I happened across a link for Tess Kielhamer on youtube because of, um, reasons. Her profile on IMDB listed her appearances mainly in this series, so I thought I'd have a look.

The basic premise of the series is a martial arts comedy which draws its inspiration from 90's era fighting video games (which seems to be an excuse for avoiding any effort in terms of a storyline etc.). A handful of select martial artists/fighters (sluggers) vie for the position of "toughest in town" at the behest of a faceless benefactor.

It's an indie produced series and crowd funded. If you're into strong storylines, good acting and realistic choreography then these aren't the droids you're looking for. There are enough tongue-in-cheek nods to keep it entertaining though (such as the gang leader's insistence on attacking one by one and the killer groin kick finishing move on a female scrapper), especially if accompanied by the consumption of alcoholic beverages..

A couple of weeks ago they were looking for sponsors to develop their next movie. They're ok, fun and entertaining... Kinda reminds me of the video games we use to play in the 80's :)

I wish Kwonkicker and that asshole from Freddie's Modern Kung Fu would fight each other.

Kwonkicker would destroy him, he has actually fought full contact. (For a given value of full contact)

Which is exactly why I wish they would have a fight.

Must... not... fap at work.

Must... not... get caught fapping at work.

FTFY ;-)

FTFY ;-)

The only one who would catch me fapping at work would be my wife. Mayhaps she can help me with the fappage.

Only if you stop pimping her. What's more important: the fap-assist or the cash-flow?

Am I mistaken, or did KwonKicker also have an actual Muay Thai fight in Thailand, which he won via spinning back kick?

In any case I find him suuuuuper annoying in these videos. But it's pretty cool to see fighters being nerdy. Reminds me of me. :D

Yeah that was him, and spinning back kick to the groin iirc, which I would wager is at least partially responsible for his character's groin kicking finishing move.

[Kin Kong]

Oh shit really? Well that makes his victory far less impressive then. And far less valid as well, I'd imagine.
