  1. In Surf Ninjas the little brothers Game Gear not only had a game in it, it was a MacGuffin!

  2. And no extra set of batteries. He might get an hour if they are fresh.

    Was it a game gear? I thought it was a Nomad.

    Games were expensive back then let the kid use his imagination

    Must be one of those Chinese knock-offs you can get that come with several thousand games included, 8 of which might be worth playing.

    A sign of just how good an actor Danny was

    The cartridge didn’t make it to the set that day.

    I mean, it’s obvious they aren’t playing because it’s not plugged into a wall.

    is that worse than 2-player FF8 in Charlie’s Angles?

    There was also a movie titled Pocket Ninjas where one of the Pocket Ninjas plays with a Gameboy and it didn’t have a game cartridge in it.

    Wow. What a blunder. I sure hope someone got fired over that.

    This movie was my childhood. Jet Li, Jackie Chan and Donnie Yen movies growing up were the best!

  13. I still can’t believe we got a new official Game Gear game in 2020. Madness.

  14. That’s because Jackie Chan is a terrible father figure

    Imagination was the real winner back then

    Yeah I remember this bothering me quite a bit. Ruined my suspension of disbeleif. Which Jackie Chan works hard at doing his own stunts so even if you WANT to believe it’s all crazy camera work you are amazed it’s real. Makes the movie so real until. Ungamed gamegear

    Back then we had to use our imagination! Kids today are so spoiled.

  18. I don’t think the missing cartridge is really the biggest goof in this movie…

    For me, the freakin’ 15,000 foot-high mountain range visible in the background of one of the shots was a bit more distracting.

    Obviously if you have to shoot in Vancouver, it’s never going to look quite like NYC (although some productions do a better job than others, with Rumble being one of the others) but come on…
