Bloodsport is not a very good movie in any conventional sense. But I love it. i can't help it. When i watch the movie and I use my brain, I come away feeling offended by how not good it is.

But ya know what? Fuck it. I watch Bolo kick ass to some awesome 80s music and I don't care about things like plot or bad acting or the fact Dux is a lying piece of shit probably.

It's sort of the same witHh Rocky IV. It's not a good movie. And yet Drago is as iconic as anything else in the Rocky series.

Li and Drago are essentially cut from the same cloth - scary foreigners who say almost nothing with their words. Their actions speak to their villainy. If nothing else, I think Chong and Ivan were good at looking bad.

But which was gooder at being badder? Who do you prefer as your Narm-y 80s movie villain?

Ivan Drago. He was scary when I first saw the film as a kid and he still looks pretty intimidating even now. Especially when you read that during the making of Rocky IV, Sly asked his actor, Dolph Lundgren to really punch him. Which Lundgren did and caved in half his ribcage.
