Dante Basco on How to Make It in Hollywood | LDtv
I just learned his name. But I’ve known him since my childhood. Unsung hero. Also. You guys are Pinoy’s? Somebody ssssst, sssst me to get my attention at the beginning of the video 💀
Ha. Al's a legend. One of the GOATs. And yep 🇵🇭🇵🇭!!
1:10 Maybe he teach you how to be COWARD!
Maybe... maybe.... 😎
Honestly, I think all the stuntwoman should’ve done to show them “your cherries are safe with me” by making them put on jockstraps/cups under their shorts then knocking on them with her fist “Hello, anybody home down there?”. That would’ve gotten my confidence up to do this. SIGN ME UP 😂
😂
Thanks so much miss.
What if…? In an alternate continuity that will affect the MCU… Ben Kingsley is the real Mandarin - reimagined by myself as a Hindu Singaporean militarism extremist who has been the main orchestrator of the entire Iron Man trilogy, sporting the same attire, hairdo, beard and even having a dragon tattoo from left clavicle, around and down to the right back hip of his chiselled muscular physique that lights up when super Saiyan’d up - and the characters Aldrich Killian (Guy Pearce) and Xu Wenwu (Tony Leong) from Shang-Chi were his protégés - next in line to adopt the mantle to further spread his iron plague - similar to Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Bin Laden, Jinping, Putin etc And to further extent, similar to Heath Ledger’s Joker, have him stand out as force of nature, never to be reckoned with. His past his unknown (real name) and he considers himself as a true civil servant (mandarin). That is what the MCU could’ve ended up with. Imagine the Kingsley Mandarin working with Thanos (Josh Brolin)!!! Those two have similar agendas/mindsets - imagine all of the chaos and carnage throughout the infinite world…and other multiverses… P.S. reason why Kinglsey’s Mandarin would sound American while speaking English in contrast to sounding Asian when speaking his native Singaporean, Mongolian and/or Chinese he might’ve learned it from some radical far-right extremist from America who can also speak Asian languages
42:39 I see 2 awesome characters here who both wanted HONOR in their own movie/series. Prince Zuko (Dante Basco) from Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto) from Karate Kid 2!!
Honor is critical!
I'm noticing two characters who wanted honor here. Dante Basco (Prince Zuko) and Yuji Okumoto (Chozen) lol
They definitely did!
0:57
🤣
@@NationalFilmSociety hit coming from up , you're going to go up
@@mellni4201 It's one of life's truisms.

😎😬
'Can't go wrong with him in 'The Perfect Weapon' as Jimmy Ho (pre-Hook)! "Hey, Terminator. I don't know where you came from, but you better go back. Those guys are Golden Fists.... you're a dead man." "Everyone in Koreatown knows Yung killed Kim, DICK... TRACY!"
Man did Chozen terrify me as a tween, so he did his job well. But now an adult looking back, damn he was ultra fine. Yuji today is absolute fire. Ppl saying he stole CK5 totally right. Adore this man full stop.
He was definitely a scary dude in KK2, but in real life a great guy!
1:32 🤣🤣🤣
😂😎
Tamlyn Tomita is a gift the eyes and heart. A gorgeous lady
Saw you on butter melon! Amazing movie!
Appreciate it! Love be a part of that film 🙏🏽
Amazing. You truly captured the essence morales of every scene!
Ha, thanks! La Bamba is an all-time classic on so many levels! "Ritcheeeeeeee!!!!"
Was there a budget to pay these actors ? aren't they SAG members and supposed to make Union scale ? or did that apply at all ?
Honestly if I had to do that scene screw it up in front of Yuji Okumoto and Tamlyn Tomita I think I’d die of embarrassment.
I'm sure you'd do just fine 👍🏽 Just practice ahead of time 😎
Awesome job guys. Tamlyn and Yuji have such great personalities. I have seen this clip many times but first time am commenting about it.
Thanks. They're the best. You should comment more often!! 👍🏽
@@NationalFilmSociety i will indeed guys. P.s you guys seem very cool to, im glad you got to meet Tamlyn and Yuji. Class and personality cannot be brought, Tamlyn, Yuji and the both of you cool gents have both those qualities.
@@LondonAsian Thanks a lot for the kind words! Tamlyn and Yuji were joy to work w/ for sure.
I've never known an Asian woman so beautiful, unique and striking on movie screens in my entire life. The scene in Karate Kid 2 where she lets down her hair has remained with me throughout my life.
Al is starting to remind me of Tommy Chong! 😂
Neither!!!
Wife found this on AsianCrush
How the f is lou philips fhilipino.omg i am shocked i thought he was soooo mexican.i still wont believe it.
I thought this video was recent, but I see it was 10 years ago
Oh, those sticks!! Yikes!!
Did wi❤ 😮😊
Cringe AF
Using the Philippine flag as, or its design on an apron is disrespectful and is against the law
Hahahahahaha i love this..lol Yuji's reaction to them initiating him 😂
You keep this interview for your collection,I know you like it ..hehehe.
Chozen from kk2 to the cobra Kai evil to to good
This is awesome
Funky you from Texas
add to bucket list: let d ever pretty Kumiko throw a ripe tomato at my back, remove my shirt, and utter the line, "keep for your correction I know you like it". I wish...😊
It should really be at the top of EVERYONE’S bucket list 😉
Hearing his American accent I feel like my whole life's a lie
Haha. Welcome to the rest of your life 😎
Well that was fun :)
It was fun to make 😎
He was really good in Cobra Kai, cannot wait for the next season to come out 5/17/23
Can’t wait either!!
@@NationalFilmSociety 🐍😎👍
Chozen is the best ever. Daniel's best opponent and friend. And the strongest fighter in CK.
💯 He’s my favorite! 👍🏽
Al Leong was the only stuntman whose name I knew back in the day. He is that iconic.
He’s the G.O.A.T. 🐐‼️
she kinda
😮
Only Chozen did it!
He’s had the most experience doing it 🤷🏾♂️
none, both are very slow
It’s a shame. They don’t have those fast twitch muscles. 😉
Now I know how to pronounce Luke's last name, thanks! PS fun video 🙂
Happy to help! 😉

I like this movie in Netflix I watched it
You can tell they were disappointed
Hey they gave it a shot 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Between Kumiko and Amanda… I would take both lol…
😂😮😱
Yuji Okumoto was cool actor as Chozen in Cobra Kai!! 😎🤟
The COOLEST!! 😎
