Big Trouble in Little China Jack Burton Tank Big Trouble in Little China (also known as John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China) is a 1986 American fantasy martial arts comedy film directed by John Carpenter and starring Kurt Russell, Kim Cattrall, Dennis Dun and James Hong. The film tells the story of Jack Burton, who helps his friend Wang Chi rescue Wang's green-eyed fiancée from bandits in San Francisco's Chinatown. They go into the mysterious underworld beneath Chinatown, where they face an ancient sorcerer named David Lo Pan, who requires a woman with green eyes to marry him in order to release him from a centuries-old curse. Although the original screenplay by first-time screenwriters Gary Goldman and David Z. Weinstein was envisioned as a Western set in the 1880s, screenwriter W. D. Richter was hired to rewrite the script extensively and modernize it. The studio hired Carpenter to direct the film and rushed Big Trouble in Little China into production so that it would be released before a similarly themed Eddie Murphy film, The Golden Child, which was slated to come out around the same time. The project fulfilled Carpenter's long-standing desire to make a martial arts film. The film was a commercial failure, grossing $11.1 million in North America, below its estimated $19 to $25 million budget. It received mixed reviews that left Carpenter disillusioned with Hollywood and influenced his decision to return to independent filmmaking. It has since become a cult classic and has a 79% average rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a steady audience on home video. • 95% polyester, 5% elastane (fabric composition may vary by 1%) • Comfortable, stretchy material that stretches and recovers on the cross and lengthwise grains. • Precision-cut and hand-sewn after printing Size guide XSSMLXL2XLChest (inches)32 ⅜34 ⅝37 40 ⅛43 ¼46 ½ Brand: Whatever Threads Color: White Size Type: Regular Style: All-over shirt Rocky's Punchout on Black $20.00 Blame Canada Deadpool Wolverine South Park $20.00 Here Lies the Invisible Swordsman $20.00 Iocane Powder - Princess Bride $20.00 Starlight Starbrite Trailer Court The Last Starfighter $20.00 Spaceballs the T-Shirt $20.00 Beastie Boys Pep Boys Logo $20.00 Royale with Cheese Pulp Fiction Quentin Tarantino $20.00 Dogs and Cats Living Together!
