In this episode of Two Asian Blokes, we kick things off with a meandering conversation that touches on everything from modern Australian cinema to the explosive success of Kpop Demon Hunters, which has just become the most-watched film on Netflix. We chat about what this means for positive representation in media and how the globalisation of Kpop continues to shape pop culture in surprising ways.

Our main topic this week is The Shadow's Edge, the latest thriller starring Jackie Chan and Tony Leung Ka Fai. Set in a rain-soaked neo-noir Hong Kong, the film blends action, suspense, and psychological drama. Is this a bold new direction for Jackie Chan — or just a shadow of his past work? Tune in to hear our full review and thoughts.
