Escape From New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China, and Tango & Cash. Truly, Kurt Russell is not appreciated enough when it comes to his 80s action movie star cred. Bruce Willis, for example, only had Die Hard (and, that being the best action movie of all time, is no small "only", to be sure) in the 80s, and I feel like more people think of him as an 80s action star than poor Kurt. So, let's take a moment to appreciate the fantastic and awesomely campy 80s action (and sci-fi/horror) movies Kurt Russell gave us. And let's also appreciate how loving awesome all his character names were. I mean, Snake Plissken, R.J. MacReady, Jack Burton, and Gabriel Cash? Checkmate, fags. There ain't no doper names than that.

The street fights between the Chinese gangsters in Big Trouble in Little China put any Kurasawa battle scenes to shame

There is no finer psychological horror film than The Thing and there is no tastier cheese than Big Trouble in Little China

I don't think he's underappreciated at all most people who are action movie fans hold him in pretty high regard because he had a ton of good movies. Don't forget Stargate, Tombstone, Executive Decision, uhhhh Escape from LA, Soldier, Backdraft, 3000 Miles to Graceland

Big Trouble in Little China is the best Carpenter/Russell collaboration.

John Carpenter missed an opportunity by not putting Kurt Russell in Halloween.

Willis and Arnie don't have gaunt faces at all. Kurt Russell stepped it back to raise his kids I played hockey against his son
