movie challenge: my turn

OK, I guess it is my turn.
Last weekend, I saw most (missed the first 10 minutes, dammit!) of Big Trouble in Little China, so this week, Big Trouble in Little China is my favorite movie. I can't really explain why I like this film so much. Partly it is the rapid, deadpan dialogue. Partly it is the ludicrous plot. Partly it is the nostalgia. Partly it is Kurt Russell as Jack Burton ("Who?" "Jack Burton... ME!"). John Carpenter has made a lot of bad movies but this isn't one of them.
