    in 2005, Three 6 Mafia won an Oscar for Best Original Song for the film Hustle and Flow ("Hard Out Here For A Pimp"). Dolly Parton was nominated in the same category. After celebrating heavily, they had a nice personal note awaiting them when they arrived back home.

    Movie recommendation for tonight, Kung Fu Hustle I'm always adamant that the best parodies have a love of what they're parodying, and nowhere is this more evident than Stephen Chow's glorious and manic send up of Kung Fu movies. It's impossible to not have fun watching this.

    The 1976 movie Monkey Hustle, filmed largely in Woodlawn and on 63rd St between Cottage Grove and Dorchester, a strip that was demo'd in the 1980s and 1990s. Everything in this scene from the building they're in to buildings outside --including this section of the CTA Green Line -- gone.

    Everyone knows about Stephen Chow's Kung Fu Hustle being absolutely full of references to classic Eastern and Western cinema. But no one really talks about Stephen Chow directly referencing the game Asura's Wrath in his later movie Journey To The West, so I edited this together.

    I might just be an idiot, but I find the whole dramatic climax and conclusion of Kung Fu Hustle genuinely moving. Like, the movie is definitely a bunch of goofy comedy adventure shit, but I sincerely believe it's also profound.

    Last night’s movie: The Hustle I find this movie absolutely hysterical. When I saw it in theaters, I cackled aloud. Two con women who get into absolutely ridiculous situations with great slapstick comedy. Anne Hathaway is a great comedic actress no doubt as is Rebel Wilson.

    Does it have to be strictly a Kung Fu film? Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is right there with Kung Fu Hustle. But Black Belt Jones and Enter The Dragon are sublime. However my favorite film to WATCH every time is Raw Force, which can also be a zombie movie, and a Cameron Mitchell movie.
