    I had to look him up, but apparently Kurt Thomas, the protagonist of this movie, was a serious competitor in Gymnastics. He won many gold medals and had a pommel horse routine that was named after him and was one of his signature moves. (As you could likely guess lol)
    He was 5 feet, 5 inches tall. His record was only matched by one gymnast in 2018. Kurt sadly passed away from a tear in part of his brain that caused him to have a stroke. He was 64 at the time. For some reason I always like to look up facts about the cast of these kinds of movies and I can't explain why :P
    Also the big muscular character was named, "Thorg," which is even funnier to me XD

    There's still room in the front for one more chair! Pam will get in there one day! I love those falling dummies. I wish there was a way to grade '80s action movies based on the quantity or quality of dummies they threw off of cliffs or rooftops. Watching them hit the bottom is always comedy gold. It's even better when they hit something halfway down and go into a spin. I'd love it if they randomly threw one of those into a modern Marvel movie or something, when everything else was CG. The arrows suddenly thudding into people was also great, though. Even when you knew it was coming, like with the dad, it still happens so fast that it gets a big reaction. Great video! Glad you loved it as much as we do.

    It's called the Law of the Conservation of Ninjutsu. There is only a set amount of fighting prowess in any given scene. It is divided amongst the participants regardless of the side on which they fight, but the more participants on one side, the more the ninjutsu for that side is divided between them more or less evenly.

    31:20 The issue about rating: in our european country, if movie or series is not submitted to the ratings board, they will get automatic R-equivalent rating. That's why in 2008 release of 'Little House on the Prairie' DVD's was rated R here, *Paramount Home Entertainment* didn't want to submit it because it saved them couple thousand dollars (rating costs around 2 euros per minute).
    I very much suspect the thing is same there, submit the movie and you will get a lower rating.

    Here's an interesting thought:
    The premise of this movie is essentially that gymnastic movement translates well into impressive theatrical combat (regardless of how realistically effective it might be); we can say with a degree of certainty that this was what the person responsible for this movie was thinking of when they came up with the idea. My proposition is this: how much easier would it be for an audience to suspend their disbelief if the term 'gymkata' is never introduced to the film? Think about it; once you see or hear the word, you know and are expecting to see the protagonist use conventional gymnastics in an unrealistic fight scene. It instantly becomes comedic. What if they NEVER introduce the hero as a gymnast; what if they NEVER use the stupid word 'gymkata' - which just begs mockery on the face of it; what if it's just a silly martial arts film - where there just happen to be a facsimile of a pommel horse in the middle of a mob lynching? Granted, it's still stupid. But is it more of a thriller and less of a comedy?

    The Gibbs dude is Richard Norton who was pretty famous for being the 'American Bad Guy' in a lot of asian martial arts flicks, including Jackie Chan's City Hunter (along with Gary Daniels, another one of those 'I know that dude!' dudes who's usually in these kinds of flicks.)
    City Hunter is good bad and recommended.

    The breakdance move Kurt Thomas does on the pommel horse is a flare, which breakdance borrowed from gymnastics. The original name of the move is called the Thomas, named after the guy who created the move. I'm sure you can connect the rest of the dots.

    You are wright, the movie is totaly bonkers, but making fun of Kurt Thomas' side horse moves is not fair. He literally invented those moves in the 80s. He was the very first doing them and they are still in use and even named after him. So be fair and give him at least the respect he deserves for his gymnastics achievements - and btw - I hate gymnastics, but this dude was awesome and missed his olympic gold medal just because Jimmy Carter ordered an US boykott of the 1980s games in Moscow.
