  • Cool folks cool movies

    Excellent podcast, exposes me to a lot of stuff I've never heard of but also covers things I consider to be old tried and true favorites. I really think you guys should watch Warrior of Love Rainbowman.

  • I was never into podcasts before hearing the Heroes Three. I found them while doing a deep dive into Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest kung fu movies and I couldn't be happier with their work, this is exactly the kind of informative, entertaining and funny content I was looking for! Lots of great information here. Feels like sitting around with friends discussing these great and often obscure movies. I'll keep listening for a long time to come. Thank you guys!

    Nice job on the podcast - glad to see the mixture of style and tone. Research done well and on point with references and opinions. Have to catch up on more episodes but liking what I hear so far. Glad to see more dedicated shows on classic martial arts moves we grew up watching!

  • Well done, check it out!

    As an eclectic appreciator of cinema, especially films outside of the mainstream, I enjoyed listening to the Heroes Three discuss everything that’s amazing about these films (and the artists that made them) with great depth of knowledge and enthusiasm. I also love the occasional small details of video store realness they bring to the show, like back-of-the-VHS-box narrations!

School of the Holy Beast - Heroes Three Gaiden
Q: How do you interpret the religious imagery and its portrayal within a westernized exploitation framework?
The group discusses that Suzuki uses Catholic imagery to frame a critique of authority and power, while acknowledging the cultural distance and the director's tendency to push boundaries; viewers note the potential for broader religious themes like Buddhism to be a lens as well.
School of the Holy Beast - Heroes Three Gaiden
Q: What is your personal history with the movie and how did it influence your view this time around?

150 Armour of God
Q: What makes Armour of God fit into the Heroes Three's exploration of Asian cinema and Western blockbusters?
