This week on Tangential Giants, Kareem, Ken, Patrick, and guest JPG attempt the impossible: giving a straight, disciplined breakdown of the state of martial arts films today. Naturally, it goes off the rails immediately.Kareem and JPG revive their long‑running feud over who the real host of Tangential Giants is, Ken tries to keep the peace like a weary kung‑fu mentor who never asked for this, and Patrick wonders aloud how Superman ever got talked into snapping necks in the first place.From the elegance of classic martial arts choreography to the modern trend of turning every fight scene into a small‑arms convention, the crew eventually lands on Roadhouse and its staggering devotion to gunfire. They try to talk technique and philosophy, but Roadhouse keeps showing up like an uninvited bar brawler.If you like martial arts cinema, chaotic detours, and the kind of debates that only get louder when no one is winning, this episode is your dojo.#tangentialgiants #martialartsmovies #actioncinema #roadhouse #superman #moviepodcast #filmtalk #popculturepodcast #JPGvsKareem
