have any knowledgeCopy !req
9. of the whereabouts of
a Mr Jack Burton or his truck?Copy !req
10. - Oh, God. Will you leave him alone?
- Mr Shen, please.Copy !req
11. You could be in a great deal of trouble. Half
a city block explodes in a ball of green flame.Copy !req
12. Green flame! All hell is breaking loose here.Copy !req
13. And there are people
who say you're involved,Copy !req
14. that you might be responsible,
that you're a very dangerous man.Copy !req
15. - Now, if you're protecting Jack Burton...
- You leave Jack Burton alone!Copy !req
16. We are in his debt. He showed great courage.Copy !req
17. OK.Copy !req
18. But if I'm gonna be your attorney,
there are a few things I have to knowCopy !req
19. that still don't make any sense to me.Copy !req
20. Like...Copy !req
21. do you really believe in magic?Copy !req
22. You mean Chinese black magic?Copy !req
23. - Yes.
- Absolutely.Copy !req
24. Are you still serious about this? And
monsters and ghosts as well, I suppose?Copy !req
25. Sure. And sorcery.Copy !req
26. And I suppose that you expect me
to believe in sorcery as well?Copy !req
27. - Of course.
- Why?Copy !req
28. Because it's real.Copy !req
29. How can I know that, Mr Shen?Copy !req
30. - How?
- Yes, how? Help me out here.Copy !req
31. Please.Copy !req
32. See? That was nothing.Copy !req
33. But that's how it always begins.Copy !req
34. Very small.Copy !req
35. This is Jack Burton at the Pork-Chop Express
and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin'.Copy !req
36. It's like I told my last wife.Copy !req
37. I says "Honey,
I never drive faster than I can see."Copy !req
38. "Besides that, it's all in the reflexes."Copy !req
39. You just listen to the Pork-Chop Express and
take his advice on a dark and stormy night.Copy !req
40. When some wild-eyed maniac
grabs your neck,Copy !req
41. taps the back of your head
up against a barroom wall,Copy !req
42. he looks you crooked in the eye
and asks you if you've paid your dues,Copy !req
43. you just stare that big sucker back in the eye
and remember what Jack Burton always says.Copy !req
44. "Have you paid your dues, Jack?"
"Yes, sir, the cheque is in the mail."Copy !req
45. Well, you see, I'm not sayin' that I've been
everywhere and I've done everything.Copy !req
46. But I do know it's a pretty
amazing planet we live on here,Copy !req
47. and a man would have to be some kinda fool
to think we're all alone in this universe.Copy !req
48. I can't believe you're stuck on even.
This is odd!Copy !req
49. All right, even! Another even! Come on!Copy !req
50. You want one more? All right!Copy !req
51. - What do we got? He can't count.
- Even!Copy !req
52. Learn how to play some fan-tan here,
buddy-boy!Copy !req
53. Three!Copy !req
54. Heaven and earth, boys. What can I tell ya?Copy !req
55. You like that one?
What did he say, Wang? In English?Copy !req
56. Something about beginner's luck.
It doesn't translate. But he quits.Copy !req
57. He quits? What is this? It's a brand-new day
and he's still got 100 bucks in his pocket.Copy !req
58. I'm not gonna complain, because I'll bet
I'd have lost my shirt in the next 20 minutes.Copy !req
59. Breaks my heart to do this,
but the next time I'm down here,Copy !req
60. you'll gang up on Jack so fast
he won't know what the hell happened.Copy !req
61. - No.
- Ah, sure. Easy come, easy go, Wang.Copy !req
62. No!Copy !req
63. Not next time. Now.Copy !req
64. Is this gonna get ugly now? I hope not.Copy !req
65. I thought what we were here,
racial differences aside,Copy !req
66. was a coupla old friends,
both of us Californians.Copy !req
67. Shit, Wang. It's only a game.Copy !req
68. Nothin' or double.Copy !req
69. This knife cuts this bottle in half.Copy !req
70. - Nothin' or double.
- Bullshit.Copy !req
71. - Nothin' or double.
- Why, man? Don't be stupid.Copy !req
72. - I need the money.
- I got near a thousand bucks here, Wang.Copy !req
73. 1,148, Jack.Copy !req
74. OK. But not that bottle.Copy !req
75. This bottle.Copy !req
76. OK.Copy !req
77. You're outta your mind, Wang. God bless ya!Copy !req
78. - It's all in the reflexes.
- It always works at home.Copy !req
79. Have me over for dinner some year and prove
it. In the meantime, pay up: $1,148 times two.Copy !req
80. - I don't have that kind of money.
- I didn't hear that.Copy !req
81. - I'm just a poor Chinese boy, you know?
- You own a restaurant. That's more than me.Copy !req
82. Yeah, right. What I meant was,
I don't got that kind of money on me.Copy !req
83. That's what I thought you meant.
Where's your truck?Copy !req
84. - I gotta go somewhere.
- No, you don't.Copy !req
85. I do. How about we meet in my restaurant
in a few hours? I pay then.Copy !req
86. - You pay now. Where you gotta go?
- The airport.Copy !req
87. - Yeah, right. Over my dead body.
- If need be.Copy !req
88. - I'll follow you.
- You don't trust me? That makes me sad.Copy !req
89. - It reminds me of an old Chinese joke.
- Save it. I'll give you a lift. Get in.Copy !req
90. - You were gonna follow me, Jack.
- I know, then I came to my senses.Copy !req
91. - So who are we pickin' up?
- A girl. I don't wanna talk about it.Copy !req
92. - A girl? Where from?
- Peking.Copy !req
93. This is a big day in my life. I should
have gone home and gotten 40 winks.Copy !req
94. A girl from China? All right, I never done that.Copy !req
95. I picked up girls from everywhere else,
but never from China. Is she pretty?Copy !req
96. - I'm gonna marry her, Jack.
- Oh, God!Copy !req
97. I've known her since we were kids.
I haven't seen her in five years.Copy !req
98. I came here alone.
I worked my fingers till they bled.Copy !req
99. Before you knew me, I slept on the floor.Copy !req
100. I saved every nickel to bring her here
because I love her so much.Copy !req
101. I can't eat, sleep or think properly without her
any more. She'll put my whole life in order.Copy !req
102. Boy, listen to me. Real tough guy.Copy !req
103. You sound a little nervous, pal.Copy !req
104. That's why the bottle didn't slice. My mind
and my spirit are goin' north and south.Copy !req
105. Flight number 26 has just arrived
at gate number seven.Copy !req
106. Whoa. Who is that?Copy !req
107. She has green eyes.
You know how rare that is, Jack?Copy !req
108. - How can you tell from here?
- Not her. She's trouble. Miao Yin.Copy !req
109. Beautiful green eyes, like creamy jade.Copy !req
110. Trouble, huh?Copy !req
111. - Can I ask you a serious question?
- Absolutely not.Copy !req
112. - Would you consider jumping right into...
- Sure, but not with a man in your condition.Copy !req
113. - What's wrong with my condition?
- Try standing downwind where I am.Copy !req
114. - It's Miller time.
- You know what I say when it's Miller time?Copy !req
115. Wait a minute!Copy !req
116. - Don't!
- Don't what?Copy !req
117. The Lords of Death. Street gang. Punks
from Chinatown. What are they doing here?Copy !req

127. Where?Copy !req
128. Call the cops!Copy !req
129. Son of a bitch must pay!Copy !req
130. What's goin' on, Wang?
Why'd they steal your girl?Copy !req
131. You tell me! How come it's not safe to walk
in Central Park or to give a stranger a lift?Copy !req
132. - Because the world's full of crazy people.
- The American girl knew something was up.Copy !req
133. Stay away from her. She's a lawyer.Copy !req
134. She's a what? Oh, come on!Copy !req
135. - What the hell...?
- They got a clubhouse where they hang out.Copy !req
136. - To sharpen their knives?

137. - Where is it?
- Thank you, Jack.Copy !req
138. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
I am Mr Egg Shen, with this wonderful tour.Copy !req
139. Sit back and enjoy yourselves, see?Copy !req
140. Long time ago, Chinese men with
gold-rush fever flooded into California.Copy !req
141. We call Gum Shan - Mountain of Gold, see?Copy !req
142. Leaving behind their wives and children.Copy !req
143. Working for years to complete
the transcontinental railroad,Copy !req
144. saving all their pennies.
And then they sent for their familiesCopy !req
145. to help build this beautiful Chinatown
you see outside your windowCopy !req
146. this fine warm day.Copy !req
147. - Go right, down that alley. Lords of Death!

150. Excuse me, ma'am.
I don't suppose you saw a...Copy !req

154. - A fighting tong. They're Chang Sings.
- A fighting tong?Copy !req
155. Don't panic, Jack.
They're OK. They're good guys.Copy !req
156. Maybe we should try a different alley.
What do you say?Copy !req
157. Wang, these guys, these Sing Dings.
They got enemies?Copy !req
158. - Wing Kong.

166. Jack!Copy !req
167. - I think it was Lo Pan.
- Who?Copy !req
168. - Don't look, Jack!
- I already did.Copy !req
169. - Who? I mean, what?
- Lo Pan. Come on!Copy !req
170. - I can't see!
- It's OK. It's only temporary. Over here.Copy !req
171. Bend over.Copy !req
172. Yeah, yeah.Copy !req
173. I ran straight through him, Wang.
How the hell did I do that?Copy !req
174. - You didn't. It only appeared that way.
- Right!Copy !req
175. - Lords of Death, Jack.
- OK, I'm goin' home. Keep your money.Copy !req
176. - Hey, Wang Chi!
- Lookin' for us?Copy !req
177. - They know your name.
- That's not good. Let's go!Copy !req
178. - My truck!
- Forget it!Copy !req
179. Lords of Death controlled by the Wing Kong,
Jack. Just errand boys for the Wing Kong.Copy !req
180. Great! Who wiped out all those
yellow turbans? Those guys were winning.Copy !req
181. He says it was the Storms. The Three Storms.Copy !req
182. Three guys did all that? Listen.Copy !req
183. What about that...
whatever it was I ran straight through?Copy !req
184. Fast!Copy !req
185. Lucky us. We made it.Copy !req
186. - All right, where's my truck? I'm outta here.
- Isn't your truck insured?Copy !req
187. - Of course it is.
- Then smart man gets it later.Copy !req
188. - Smart man calls the cops.
- Cops got better things to do than get killed.Copy !req
189. So do I!Copy !req
190. Mutual Fidelity Insurers of Sacramento.Copy !req
191. Well, there's gotta be a listing, honey.
I pay 'em six G's a year in premiums.Copy !req
192. China is here, Mr Burton.
The Chang Sing, the Wing Kong.Copy !req
193. - They've been fighting for centuries.
- What does that mean? "China is here"?Copy !req
194. I don't know what that means. All I know is,
this Lo Pan character comes out of thin airCopy !req
195. in the middle of an alley, while his buddies
fly around, cuttin' everybody to shreds,Copy !req
196. and he stands there, waiting for me
to drive my truck straight through him,Copy !req
197. - with light comin' out of his mouth!
- Jack, please.Copy !req
198. - When did this happen?
- It didn't, not like he says.Copy !req
199. Yeah, it did. Two hours ago. Tall guy, weird
clothes. First you see him, then you don't.Copy !req
200. Lo Pan appeared on the street?Copy !req
201. - Why didn't you tell me?
- I didn't want to alarm you, Uncle.Copy !req

and I don't wanna hear "act of God", OK?Copy !req
203. All right, look. What's your name?
Mine's Jack Burton.Copy !req
204. - Good afternoon, Mr Wong.

206. Well, I don't know my policy number.
It's in the glove compartment.Copy !req
207. Just look under B-U-R-T-O-N, will ya?Copy !req
208. - Jack Burton?
- Yeah.Copy !req
209. Boy. The guy you always told me about.Copy !req
210. - Then that was your abandoned truck.
- Abandoned, like hell!Copy !req
211. Hello. Hello?Copy !req
212. Oh, Christ!Copy !req
213. Bad news. The Lords of Death
stole it after you ran away.Copy !req
214. - They stole my truck?
- Take it easy, Jack. You're with friends.Copy !req
215. - We'll find it for you.
- Damn right you will.Copy !req
216. And my money. And time is money to a guy
like me. And your phone is dead, by the way.Copy !req
217. - How do you think I feel? I lost a whole girl!
- The Lords of Death were only on ajoyride.Copy !req
218. Not acting on orders from the Wing Kong.Copy !req
219. They just wanted a girl to sell
and Miao Yin got in the way.Copy !req
220. Plus, the skirmish you guys stumbled into.Copy !req
221. Lo Pan, the word is, ordered the boss of
the Chang Sings, Mr Lem Lee, assassinated.Copy !req
222. - That was his funeral.
- It was a war, Eddie.Copy !req
223. - What are you doing here?
- Don't panic. It's only me, Gracie Law.Copy !req
224. Great.Copy !req
225. Just passing the neighbourhood
on a dark and stormy night?Copy !req
226. - This is my neighbourhood.
- Sure it was a war.Copy !req
227. And anybody that showed up was gonnajoin
Lem Lee in the hell of being cut to pieces.Copy !req
228. - Hell of being what?
- The Chinese have a lotta hells.Copy !req
229. - And what the hell is Gracie Law doing here?
- She can't get enough of me.Copy !req
230. He wishes. Look, you know me.Copy !req
231. I'm always pokin' my nose where it
doesn't belong and, I admit it,Copy !req
232. this mix-up is my fault, sort of.Copy !req
233. But I have it on good advice that the punks
thatjumped me and took his truck,Copy !req
234. they took the girl they kidnapped to the
White Tiger's for a quick sale. Who was she?Copy !req
235. - My fiancée. The White Tiger's?
- Oh, God. I'm sorry.Copy !req
236. If we go tonight, we can buy her back.
A warrant's too complicated,Copy !req
237. - violence out of the question...
- Hold it! Slow down.Copy !req
238. - I'm feelin' like an outsider here.
- You are!Copy !req
239. Jack, listen. I need more of your help.
I can't pay you today, OK?Copy !req
240. - Shit.
- How can I? I need the cash for Miao Yin.Copy !req
241. - And it's gonna cost. She's got green eyes.
- Seriously? That's an extra.Copy !req
242. It's like leather bucket seats: double the price.Copy !req
243. - Look, this Lo Pan I ran over... through...
- Has spirit-medium powers.Copy !req
244. Like the immortals.
His flesh and his bones are atomised.Copy !req
245. He becomes the dream.Copy !req
246. - What?
- That's an exaggeration, Jack, I promise.Copy !req
247. Please, help me.Copy !req
248. I got a great idea.Copy !req
249. - Relax.
- I am relaxed.Copy !req
250. Look, this is as far as I go,
because I'm a dead giveaway, see?Copy !req
251. I'd go in there with you, but they know
my face and they'd wanna push it in.Copy !req
252. - Not while I'm around.
- It's all up to you now, Jack.Copy !req
253. My destiny rests in your capable hands.Copy !req
254. - I'll do my best.
- Make them drop their guard.Copy !req
255. - I'll try.
- Look stupid.Copy !req
256. He does.Copy !req
257. Boy, it sure is rainin' cats and dogs.Copy !req
258. The cab driver said... He told me that I could...Copy !req
259. Well, that the White Tiger would...Copy !req
260. Just a minute, please.Copy !req
261. Excuse me for a second, guys.
I think I know that car.Copy !req
262. What's she doing now?Copy !req
263. Strange girl.Copy !req
264. That building there. The White Tiger.Copy !req
265. God, it's creepy. Do we have to go in?
Because I will, if we have to.Copy !req
266. I'll go anywhere or do anything
to get my story. It's my big break.Copy !req
267. Just sit tight. We've got one of our best men
inside right now, stirring the pot.Copy !req
268. How do you do, ma'am? Henry Swanson's
my name and excitement's my game.Copy !req
269. - Cash or charge?
- Gosh! Cash, I guess.Copy !req
270. I mean, it's not deductible, is it?Copy !req
271. Mrs O'Toole will take care of your needs.Copy !req
272. Boy, I wish these were in colour.Copy !req
273. Because what I really am
in the mood for is a girl with green eyes.Copy !req
274. And price is no object, Mrs O'Toole.Copy !req
275. Fresh off the boat's the way I like 'em.
The more exotic the better.Copy !req
276. Chinese girls do not come with green eyes.Copy !req
277. - Too long. Let's go in.
- It's only been ten minutes.Copy !req
278. Give the guy a chance.Copy !req
279. - So how long you been in the US of A?
- Three months.Copy !req
280. - Where from?
- Hong Kong.Copy !req
281. What happens? You stay here a while?
Old girls leave, new girls come in?Copy !req
282. Maybe. Take your tie off, please.Copy !req
283. Yeah, I know what you mean.
My wife gave it to me for Christmas.Copy !req
284. Holy shit!Copy !req
285. Green explosions? People flyin' in and out?
That was not real. I wanna talk to the cops.Copy !req
286. I want my truck back.
Now where the hell am I?Copy !req
287. - My office. Sit down.
- You sleep in your office?Copy !req
288. What I need to get straight is...
These Storms, what are they? Magicians?Copy !req
289. - Yeah, sort of. It's hard to explain.
- Try real hard.Copy !req
290. If the Storms have Miao Yin,
there's one place they'd go.Copy !req
291. Lo Pan. The godfather of Little China,
Mr David Lo Pan.Copy !req
292. You mean the Lo Pan that's
chairman of the National Orient BankCopy !req
293. and owns the Wing Kong Trading Company,Copy !req
294. but who's so reclusive
that no one has laid eyes on him in years?Copy !req
295. Who the hell are you, anyway?Copy !req
296. I'm Margo Litzenberger.
I'm with the Berkeley People's Herald.Copy !req
297. I've been trying to get somebody from
the press to listen to me about this, Burton.Copy !req
298. It's not possible that you saw David Lo Pan.
The bastard's afraid to show his face.Copy !req
299. - He's got more enemies...
- He's got Miao Yin. I'm going!Copy !req
300. - Are you nuts?
- Who's that?Copy !req
301. It's OK, Tara. You can go back to sleep.Copy !req
302. - From the airport.
- This morning, sure.Copy !req
303. That's why I was there. I was protecting her
civil rights, making sure she gets a chance.Copy !req
304. This is just so shocking. I mean,
I mustjust be so monumentally naive.Copy !req
305. - You are.
- Now we have to grab your fiancée...Copy !req
306. Wait a minute! I'm a reasonable guy,Copy !req
307. but I've experienced
some unreasonable things.Copy !req
308. - It depends on how you look at it.
- The hell it does! So somebodyCopy !req
309. - tell me what is goin' on!
- The truth?Copy !req
310. - I can take it.
- We don't know.Copy !req
311. - I'm going now, alone if I have to!
- Where? It's pouring out.Copy !req
312. - Lo Pan's. The Wing Kong Exchange.
- The Wing Kong Exchange?Copy !req
313. The most dangerous den of madmen
in Chinatown? You can't waltz in like...Copy !req
314. Like the wind. Yes, I can, Miss Law.
My mind and my spirits are as one.Copy !req
315. - As two. I said I was comin'.
- I'd go with you...Copy !req
316. I know. There's a problem with your face.Copy !req
317. OK! You people sit tight,
hold the fort and keep the home fires burning.Copy !req
318. If we're not back by dawn, call the president.Copy !req
319. - This is gonna take crackerjack timing.
- Total concentration. You ready, Jack?Copy !req
320. I was born ready.Copy !req
321. I love working nights.Copy !req
322. Don't get up. Phone company.Copy !req
323. All right, boys, where's the main panel?
Probably through here.Copy !req
324. Wang.Copy !req
325. Good work, Jack.
I think they actually fell for it.Copy !req
326. Well, last time we had this problem was
on account of squirrels chewin' the wires.Copy !req
327. - I'd better locate the central junction box.
- I think it's down there.Copy !req
328. What does that say?Copy !req
329. - Hell of boiling oil.
- You're kidding!Copy !req
330. Yeah, I am. It says "Keep out."Copy !req
331. We've got to do something!Copy !req
332. Goat butts against a hedge
and its horns become entangled.Copy !req
333. - I don't think I've had the pleasure.
- Miss Gracie Law, Mr Egg Shen.Copy !req
334. Egg's kind of our local authority on Lo Pan.Copy !req
335. - He's helping us out.
- It has been almost two hours.Copy !req
336. - Let's go over there, beat down the door...
- No, Miss Law.Copy !req
337. We have to gather our strength,
because now there's clouds and thunder.Copy !req
338. The image of difficulty at the beginning.Copy !req
339. But finally we shall bring order out of chaos.Copy !req
340. - Look.
- Yeah.Copy !req
341. What you got here is two
people dragging a third.Copy !req
342. Miao Yin!Copy !req
343. - You did that, right?
- I guess so. I hope so.Copy !req
344. Jack, check this out.Copy !req
345. So what is this? Chinese or somethin'?Copy !req
346. - Countin' backwards?
- Not backwards. Downwards.Copy !req
347. Of course the Chinese mix everything up.
Look at what they have to work with.Copy !req
348. There's Buddhism, Confucianism
and Taoist alchemy and sorcery.Copy !req
349. We take what we want and leave the rest.
Just like your salad bar.Copy !req
350. But there is one thing
even David Lo Pan must acknowledge.Copy !req
351. All movement in the universe is caused by
tension between positive and negative furies.Copy !req
352. - So when the furies are out of balance...
- As they are in Lo Pan, who is cursed.Copy !req
353. Then the people
turn into demons and live for ever.Copy !req
354. Repulsive and evil,
existing only to plague the living.Copy !req
355. Well then, what you're saying is
this David Lo Pan... What is he? A ghost?Copy !req
356. Plays at being a man.
A creature of vast, dark, destructive power.Copy !req
357. All right, out this hatch and up the cable.
Does that sound like a brilliant idea or what?Copy !req
358. The cable is three storeys high
and covered with grease.Copy !req
359. Exactly. It's real and we can touch it,
so at least we know where we stand.Copy !req
360. Yeah, in deep shit.Copy !req
361. - What?
- What the hell...?Copy !req
362. - Shit!
- See?Copy !req
363. You think they'd let us
walk in and out like the wind?Copy !req
364. Yes.
I thought that was your whole damn point!Copy !req
365. My point was to find Miao Yin at any cost!Copy !req
366. - This is salt water, Wang.
- And get your truck back!Copy !req
367. - I'll buy another one.
- But there's only one Miao Yin!Copy !req
368. Jesus Christ! Where are we?Copy !req
369. Hell of the upside-down sinners!Copy !req
370. Hey, you! Come on over here
and fight like a man!Copy !req
371. Shit, Jack. I don't like the looks of this.Copy !req
372. - Where are we, Wang?
- You are nowhere!Copy !req
373. Oh, boy.Copy !req
374. Look, we came here to see David Lo Pan,
all right?Copy !req
375. David Lo Pan?Copy !req
376. - Then you have succeeded, Mr Burton.
- What, you?Copy !req
377. - I don't get this at all. I thought...
- Shut up, Mr Burton!Copy !req
378. - You are not put upon this world to "get it".
- Come on! Lo Pan is like...Copy !req
379. Nothing you can understand.Copy !req
380. There are many mysteries and unanswerable
questions, even in a life as short as yours.Copy !req
381. The way I see it, it doesn't mean
we shouldn't ask. Where's my truck?Copy !req
382. You are not looking for a truck. You're
looking for a girl. A girl with green eyes.Copy !req
383. - Yes.
- She must be something extraordinary.Copy !req
384. Or I'm not about to waste another 2,000 years.Copy !req
385. There can't be many Chinese girls
with green eyes these days.Copy !req
386. - There are not. Never were.
- So beggars can't be choosers.Copy !req
387. But I can!Copy !req
388. Tell me about Miao Yin.Copy !req
389. What province is she from? Hunan?Copy !req
390. Her mother? Her father?
He must be a holy man. I must know.Copy !req
391. You got a tongue, Dave. Ask her yourself.Copy !req
392. Mr Burton, if you have an influence over
your youthful friend, you better exert it now.Copy !req
393. Otherwise I will send both of you to
the hell where people are skinned alive.Copy !req
394. It's that simple. Understand?Copy !req
395. - Are you crazy? Is that your problem?
- No, he means it, Jack.Copy !req
396. My problem is this place.
This place is my tomb. I'm buried here.Copy !req
397. A young man, a king, a warrior,
is entombed in this old man's crippled body.Copy !req
398. And all I need is a woman, Mr Burton,Copy !req
399. a special kind of woman
with dragon-green eyes,Copy !req
400. to make me whole and young again, so that I
may rule the universe from beyond the grave.Copy !req
401. - Ch'ing-ti. The God of the East.
- Who, him? This guy?Copy !req
402. No, not me, Mr Burton.Copy !req
403. My demon. The god I must appease
in order to regain my heart, my blood.Copy !req
404. A girl with green eyes to satisfy Ch'ing-ti,Copy !req
405. a girl brave enough
to embrace the naked blade.Copy !req
406. - When I find her, I will marry her.
- Never!Copy !req
407. Ch'ing-ti will be happy and my curse lifted.Copy !req
408. You can rule the universe
from beyond the grave.Copy !req
409. - Indeed!
- Or check into a psycho ward.Copy !req
410. Whichever comes first.Copy !req
411. What, I'm supposed to buy this shit? 2,000
years and he can't find a broad to fit the bill?Copy !req
412. Come on, Dave, you must be doin'
somethin' seriously wrong.Copy !req
413. There have been others, to be sure.
There are always others, are there not?Copy !req
414. You seem to be one who knows
the difficulties between men and women,Copy !req
415. how seldom it works out.Copy !req
416. And yet we all keep trying, like fools.Copy !req
417. Who are these people? Friends of yours?
Now this really pisses me off to no end!Copy !req
418. - Come on, stick around!
- Where's Miao Yin? In this building?Copy !req
419. - Safe.
- Where is she?Copy !req
420. Safe.
Safer with me than any creature on earth!Copy !req
421. Go ahead. You want bad publicity?
Give us the run-around.Copy !req
422. But this woman has a deadline,
and her pen is mightier than your sword.Copy !req
423. - Yeah.
- No visitors.Copy !req
424. - I don't make the policy around here.
- Come on, man! Give 'em a tour.Copy !req
425. What's it gonna hurt?Copy !req
426. I can help you.Copy !req
427. - Are you OK, Jack?
- Yeah.Copy !req
428. We're in a room.
No windows, a few skeletons.Copy !req
429. - Where's the light coming from?
- The floor.Copy !req
430. With the easing of trade restrictions,Copy !req
431. next year we'll start importing
a lot of strange things from Peking.Copy !req
432. What sort of strange things?Copy !req
433. Are we going up or down?Copy !req
434. It feels like down.Copy !req
435. Great. Thank you, Jack.Copy !req
436. I think we've come up. First we went down.
Now they've brought us up.Copy !req
437. Two, three feet thick, I'll bet. Probably
welded shut and covered with brick by now.Copy !req
438. - Don't give up, Jack.
- OK. Let's just chew our way outta here!Copy !req
439. Lo Pan has plans for us,
or we'd be dead doornails.Copy !req
440. Which Lo Pan? Little old basket case
on wheels, or the ten-foot-tall roadblock?Copy !req
441. - One and the same person, Jack.
- You know something you're not tellin' me.Copy !req
442. Myths and legends.Copy !req
443. - I don't wanna insult you.
- No, no. Go ahead.Copy !req
444. Insult me.Copy !req
445. It's about all sorts of scary things:
an ancient army of the dead,Copy !req
446. the Spirit City and monkey sacrifices.Copy !req
447. The First Sovereign Emperor of China,Copy !req
448. that mad monarch who federated our
seven warring states, defeated Lo PanCopy !req
449. and imposed upon him
that horrible curse of no flesh in 272 BC.Copy !req
450. A lot of Chinese hear these things
when we're kids, then we grow up,Copy !req
451. and pretend not to believe them.Copy !req
452. - No horseshit, Wang.
- No horseshit, Jack.Copy !req
453. I don't blame you. I'm Chinese and I don't
even wanna believe it, but it's for real.Copy !req
454. Sorcery, the Chinese black magic.Copy !req
455. Blindfolds!Copy !req
456. You make one move...Copy !req
457. Now, let's try that again.
Don't make me kill you, tough guy.Copy !req
458. Come on, Jack!Copy !req
459. - Come on!
- How?Copy !req
460. - Great work, Jack.
- Yeah.Copy !req
461. We're all in: me, Gracie and Margo. Uncle Chu
and Egg are in Egg's bus, ready to get us out.Copy !req
462. - Right.
- Here, Jack.Copy !req
463. I'll trade ya.Copy !req
464. All right, which way?
Fast, before they wake up.Copy !req
465. There, I think. Down there.Copy !req
466. No pathetic excuses.Copy !req
467. I smell the blood of human beings.
Find them. Boil them until their flesh falls off.Copy !req
468. You heard me!Copy !req
469. Empty.Copy !req
470. I need you, Miao Yin.Copy !req
471. You, whose eyes flash like emerald lightning.Copy !req
472. Ch'ing-ti, make me flesh again soon.Copy !req
473. Please.Copy !req
474. Let's go. It's clear.Copy !req
475. Safety!Copy !req
476. Wang!Copy !req
477. First time you ever plugged somebody?Copy !req
478. - Course not.
- Come on!Copy !req
479. You wanna go up or down?Copy !req
480. - Up or down?
- Up.Copy !req
481. All has become strange.Copy !req
482. A world so unreal and yet,
at once, so frightening.Copy !req
483. Open up or I'll blow his head off!Copy !req
484. Open! Or he dies in the name of Ch'ing-tiCopy !req
485. and your souls speed with his
to the hell of the oily dragon!Copy !req
486. - You all right?
- Yeah.Copy !req
487. - Margo!
- Jack!Copy !req
488. - Where's Gracie?
- On the floor next door. She's a wildcat.Copy !req
489. - How are you gonna spring us?
- I have no idea.Copy !req
490. That way maybe.Copy !req
491. Wang, haul ass!Copy !req
492. Come on, keep movin'!Copy !req
493. Margo, jump in!Copy !req
494. - In there? Are you nuts?
- Go!Copy !req
495. - Where's Margo?
- I don't know.Copy !req
496. Where are we?Copy !req
497. - Where's Eddie?
- Beats me.Copy !req
498. Where's Jack?Copy !req
499. Jack!Copy !req
500. Jack?Copy !req
501. Jack!Copy !req
502. - Sorry, I'm just thrilled to be alive.
- Yeah, sure. Let's go.Copy !req
503. - It's like some giant garbage disposal.
- I think it is, sort of.Copy !req
504. Will you just stop rubbing
your body up against mine?Copy !req
505. I can't concentrate when you do that.Copy !req
506. What a pig you are, Burton! I mean, really!Copy !req
507. - Where's Jack?
- It's OK. Everybody relax. I'm here.Copy !req
508. Jack, I know where we are.
This is a central... what do you call it?Copy !req
509. - Sewer?
- Yeah. Water comes in up there.Copy !req
510. Seawater from the bay fills this room. They
divert it through pipes to different chambers.Copy !req
511. I bet up there's where
we first got on that elevator.Copy !req
512. All right, we're almost outta here.
From here on, it gets normal.Copy !req
513. Offices, storerooms: a nice false front.Copy !req
514. I count to three, open the door, and we go.Copy !req
515. - Everybody got that?
- Ready?Copy !req
516. Follow the leader. One, two, three.Copy !req
517. We may be trapped.Copy !req
518. Hide!Copy !req
519. - Hide?
- Hide! They only saw me!Copy !req
520. We fight together, Jack. Do or die.Copy !req
521. Time to go.Copy !req
522. The bus is right outside in the parking lot.Copy !req
523. Here's the deal. I run interference and
you bring up the rear. Can you handle that?Copy !req
524. Can you?Copy !req
525. Well, what a night's work!
You got a problem like that again,Copy !req
526. - you reach for the sky!
- Let's go!Copy !req
527. Come on, come on.Copy !req
528. - You're doin' real good, guys.
- Come on, Jack!Copy !req
529. Let's go! Open the doors!Copy !req
530. - Hurry!
- Move it, Egg!Copy !req
531. Duck!Copy !req
532. We made it. Holy shit, we made it!Copy !req
533. - Where's Miao Yin?
- Inside.Copy !req
534. Somewhere inside.Copy !req
535. Where's Gracie?Copy !req
536. Put me down, you overstuffed monster!Copy !req
537. Let me go! Let me go!Copy !req
538. What does it mean?Copy !req
539. Two girls with green eyes?Copy !req
540. After all these years.Copy !req
541. You bastards! Unchain me! You're not
gonna get away with this. Where's Lo Pan?Copy !req
542. This one has fire as well!Copy !req
543. Listen,
I've had it up to here with you maniacs.Copy !req
544. I wanna see that disgusting
flesh-peddler David Lo Pan in person.Copy !req
545. Unless the coward's afraid to see
an unarmed girl one-on-one!Copy !req
546. Where is he?Copy !req
547. You know what this is?
This is like some radical Alice In Wonderland.Copy !req
548. - That's what this is.
- Then you've got a best seller on your hands.Copy !req
549. - Call the police. You're not a one-man army.
- Cops got better things to do than get killed.Copy !req
550. Here he is, Jack.Copy !req
551. No, these are our friends.
These are the Chang Sings.Copy !req
552. - Any of 'em savvy English?
- Hey, man. Who is this guy?Copy !req
553. All right. You got any guns?Copy !req
554. Not against Lo Pan, but here's one for you
to make you feel better, like Dirty Harry.Copy !req
555. I'll stick with these. You comin' with us, Egg?Copy !req
556. Of course, Jack. It's my destiny. Besides,
if I don't you'll never make it out alive.Copy !req
557. - I'm on board too then.
- Yeah, sure, kid.Copy !req
558. - You can't keep the press out. It's America.
- You're not going back there.Copy !req
559. You're stayin' here with Eddie and Uncle Chu.Copy !req
560. - Eddie? But he's...
- He's got a crush on you.Copy !req
561. - You mean like you've got on Gracie?
- Are you kidding? I just want my truck back.Copy !req
562. What do I know?
She's not even your type. All brains.Copy !req
563. Come on, let's go!Copy !req
564. Play your cards right, you live to talk about it.Copy !req
565. Oh, boy.Copy !req
566. Are you OK? Are you Miao Yin?Copy !req
567. Yes. Miao Yin.Copy !req
568. - Who are you?
- Lo Pan.Copy !req
569. You have come to seek me out
with your green eyes.Copy !req
570. Yes.Copy !req
571. - No, no.
- Yes.Copy !req
572. - What's going on here? Some kind of...?
- Magic. The darkest magic.Copy !req
573. My soul swims in it, scattered across time,
trapped in the world of formlessness.Copy !req
574. Until I find her and marry her.Copy !req
575. Marry her?Copy !req
576. The girl with green eyes.
The girl who can tame the burning blade.Copy !req
577. Miao Yin or Grace Law.Copy !req
578. - Great start. It's the other way.
- The front door will get you nowhere.Copy !req
579. - Here, let me hold that.
- A brave man likes to feel nature on his face.Copy !req
580. And a wise man has enough sense
to get in out of the rain.Copy !req
581. - He lives here?
- He owns the block. He's a rich guy.Copy !req
582. - Rich? This place is a dump, Wang.
- To Western eyes.Copy !req
583. The stuff in these bottles is priceless.Copy !req
584. Well, all set?Copy !req
585. Yeah. Ready when you are, Egg.Copy !req
586. - Jack next.
- Where does it go?Copy !req
587. - Down. Lo Pan is down there.
- Down where?Copy !req
588. - Where is the universe?
- Come on, Jack. Don't be afraid.Copy !req
589. Afraid? Are you kidding?Copy !req
590. - Where in the hell are we?
- Underneath Chinatown.Copy !req
591. That is not water.Copy !req
592. Black blood of the earth.Copy !req
593. - Do you mean oil?
- I mean black blood of the earth.Copy !req
594. A thousand years ago, huge earthquakes
turned the world upside down.Copy !req
595. Many normal people were killed.Copy !req
596. Many unnatural people roam freeCopy !req
597. to commit great offences against the gods.Copy !req
598. They have survived the burning blade,
tamed the savage heart.Copy !req
599. I will marry both women.Copy !req
600. Prepare them.Copy !req
601. What is that?Copy !req
602. - It sounds like...
- Something breathing underwater?Copy !req
603. Yeah.Copy !req
604. You will come out no more!Copy !req
605. What? What'll come out no more?Copy !req
606. Come on.Copy !req
607. Dammit!Copy !req
608. Miao Yin?Copy !req
609. Hey, Wang!Copy !req
610. - Egg!
- Jack, come on!Copy !req
611. It's OK, Jack. Wing Kong storeroom.
Emergency provisions.Copy !req
612. We're inside Lo Pan's domain.Copy !req
613. Christ!Copy !req
614. Later.Copy !req
615. We're getting close. Real close.
And now for some more bad news. Ready?Copy !req
616. - This gets worse? Come on!
- 2,258 years agoCopy !req
617. the First Sovereign Emperor...Copy !req
618. He subjugated Lo Pan, made him of no flesh.Copy !req
619. - Only an evil dream.
- Get to the goddamn point, Egg.Copy !req
620. In order to be whole again, he had to find
this certain girl of his prophecy,Copy !req
621. and marry her to appease the God of the East.Copy !req
622. But to appease the emperor,
he had to kill her.Copy !req
623. Kill her? No!Copy !req
624. Well, let's go. What are we talkin'
Chinese history for when we gotta get...Copy !req
625. We are getting ready to strike the final blow.Copy !req
626. - If we reach Lo Pan...
- When we reach Lo Pan.Copy !req
627. then the power in this flask
will be our only hopeCopy !req
628. against the Bodhisattva of the underworld,
the ultimate evil spirit.Copy !req
629. Yes. Only a dream can kill a dream.Copy !req
630. I've waited for this for a long time, Jack.Copy !req
631. The evil dream will die.Copy !req
632. Wing Kong outside.Copy !req
633. - Were they real?
- Yeah. Dressed for Lo Pan's wedding.Copy !req
634. What's in the flask? Magic potion?Copy !req
635. - Yeah.
- Thought so. Good. Do we drink it?Copy !req
636. - Yeah.
- Good. Thought so.Copy !req
637. I am the past,
come back to haunt you, Lo Pan!Copy !req
638. My God, no! Please!
What is that? Don't tell me.Copy !req
639. A guardian. What it sees, Lo Pan knows.Copy !req
640. They have returned.Copy !req
641. And this time they are not alone.
Egg Shen is with them.Copy !req
642. Little bastard sorcerer has brought them
through the Bog of the Dead Trees.Copy !req
643. Egg Shen?Copy !req
644. Egg Shen! You have come
a long ways to find me, but it is too late.Copy !req
645. There are two girls with green eyes,
and I will marry them both.Copy !req
646. And then I will sacrifice Gracie Law
to appease my emperor,Copy !req
647. and live out my earthly pleasures
with Miao Yin.Copy !req
648. That's right, Egg Shen.
The best of two worlds.Copy !req
649. You never know till you try.Copy !req
650. Let's get outta here.Copy !req
651. You know what I don't like?
Where is everybody?Copy !req
652. Preparing for Lo Pan's wedding.Copy !req
653. We should not be in here, not this easily.
It's a setup, I'm tellin' ya.Copy !req
654. Lo Pan is about to take his queen.
He's too busy to care.Copy !req
655. So where is he, Egg? Where?Copy !req
656. - Jack, here!
- What?Copy !req
657. - Hollow.
- Fuck it.Copy !req
658. - I know. It's an elevator. It only goes down.
- Yeah, look.Copy !req
659. - Hey, all right!
- Time for the medicine!Copy !req
660. - Cheers!
- This does what again, exactly?Copy !req
661. Huge buzz.Copy !req
662. Good!Copy !req
663. You can see things no one else can see,
do things no one else can do.Copy !req
664. - Real things?
- As real as Lo Pan.Copy !req
665. - What more can a guy ask for?
- The six-demon bag!Copy !req
666. Terrific. A six-demon bag.
Sensational. What's in it, Egg?Copy !req
667. Wind! Fire! All that kind of thing.Copy !req
668. Here's to the army and navy
and the battles they have won.Copy !req
669. Here's to America's colours,
the colours that never run.Copy !req
670. May the wings of liberty never lose a feather.Copy !req
671. I feel pretty good. You know, I'm not...Copy !req
672. I'm not scared at all. I just feel kind of...Copy !req
673. - I feel kind of invincible.
- Me too.Copy !req
674. - I got a very positive attitude about this.
- Good. Me too.Copy !req
675. Is it gettin' hot in here, or is it just me?Copy !req
676. Ch'ing-ti! Ch'ing-ti!Copy !req
677. Great Ch'ing-ti, equal with heaven,Copy !req
678. come into our presence
and witness this holy matrimony.Copy !req
679. - Miao Yin.
- And the ultimate evil spirit.Copy !req
680. And now, my beloved disciples,Copy !req
681. the moment of truth.Copy !req
682. The needle of love.Copy !req
683. - I'd like to shoot that bastard.
- Not until he's married.Copy !req
684. - Then he's flesh.
- Then it's too late.Copy !req
685. Ch'ing-ti!Copy !req
686. You, who shake the heavens
and descend from the east,Copy !req
687. all I ask in order to conquer this universeCopy !req
688. is that you grant me flesh and blood.Copy !req
689. Yes! Guide my handCopy !req
690. as I insert this needle into Miao Yin.Copy !req
691. Let him complete the ceremony.
Then he is ours for certain!Copy !req
692. Come, my love. Give it to me.Copy !req
693. It's working!Copy !req
694. I'm mortal!Copy !req
695. Look out, guys!Copy !req
696. No way!Copy !req
