Shooting Schedule

And now, from the great folks who brought you Pearl Harbor. Nemuro Nishitsu remembered Pearl Harbor. He also remembered the rest of World War II and Japan's humiliating defeat. Nishitsu had been a humble soldier then. He was Japan's number one industrialist now. And he had the money, the power, and the madness to script a sneak attack that made Pearl Harbor look like a childish prank. Made in the U.S.A. a pitiful helpless giant...and made Remo and Chiun the country's last vanishing hope...as the flag of foreign conquest was planted in the American heartland, and the Destroyer was X-ed out of the action.

Gunslinger 6/10 December 31, 2011

This being the Christmas season, it was only fitting I read this around that time. After Remo takes out a killer Santa, a Sly Stallone clone is looking to make a Christmas film. Turns out the Japanese company he signs on with intends on taking over Yuma, Az. in revenge for losing WWII. This one had so many over-the-top moments, but actually Remo is relegated to supporting role. Chuin and Sly (Bronzini) get most of the time. It was funny as hell as Murphy pulls no punches with Japanese linguistic difficulties with the letter "L". Poking fun at who is clearly Stallone, and Chuin bantering with the main female character. But, this book also had a chilling note. A Red Dawn-type of situation where a small american town is invaded, and no resistance is tolerated. The climax with Chuin and then Remo laying waste to tanks and Japanese invaders with their bare hands is classic.
