Ryne Barber’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

I'm Ryne, a graduate from Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts with a degree in English/Communications and a focus in education. I've been writing online for almost a decade for my own website, TheMoonisaDeadWorld.net, and occasional contribute to other like-minded sites as well. I also do freelance work when I'm not swamped at my day job, a Data Quality Specialist for a small hospital. I enjoy writing about movies and television, but I like change as well.

We're kicking off Red Hot '90s Action Summer by returning to the Bronx, this time with Jackie Chan in his American debut from 1995! We talk about the film's dubbing, the nonsensical plot about a diamond heist, dirtbikes in the city, and a whole lot more.

The doldrums of summer are upon us and so we wanted a nice easy, lazy film. So of course we're talking Dennis Hopper's Easy Rider, a thesis on the American dream and Americana of the late '60s.

Since we've already covered Escape from New York, it was only right that we also do the Italian copycat film Escape from the Bronx, which, as we quickly point out, actually has nothing to do with escaping.
