Bangkok Dangerous Mai Dai mayday mayday

It's a good film. I watched it maybe 10 years ago or more, I remember a few scenes. The American version is NOTHING like the original. I prefer the original even if I have forgotten much of the film which I am now about to watch or download since I am fixated on watching Joker again, as it is a most fascinating film on many levels.  Bankok Dangerous maybe not so much.

Mai pen rai.

You, parenthetical reader, can watch it if you will see a rape scene and murder!!! American films mostly focus on murder and consensual sex. Welcome to Bangkok Dangerous. There's also a Muay Thai fight scene and a motorbike race. The Thai Government has recently outlawed/banned street motorbike racing as many have been injured or killed. That is a reality and shown in the movie as the reality of Bangkok.  As for the rest, it's about gangs and drugs. But it was the rape scene which was unusual as I wrote, women being raped in a movie is not a very American media pursuit. Men who are raped in movies (usually hinted at, never shown) make waves in culture whereas women being raped is relatively not portrayed as a crime as much as men being raped (which appears as a huge tragedy for endless series --i.e. Mr. Robot.) Men are allowed to murder their assailant whereas women get killed in the movies if they say no, are somehow to blame if they get raped, or are killed off at the end (Thelma & Louise--I HATED THE ENDING they should have lived happily ever after with some fun, happy boy toys who are not playboys like b.p who starred as the one-night boy toy in the movie). When will H-wood ever get it straight-up? As I recall, in the Thai version the male friends of the woman raped go get some payback for the rape and beating the beautiful escort Thai prostitute/bar girl endured. It was a work of art, deserving of the awards it received. The American version was of a mercinary money-oriented white male who gets a Thai blind lover who showers him with the servitude he is lacking in Western society, etc murders upon contract--bloodshed as the final tumultuous climactic ending---like the last movie, and the last H-wood movie, and the last H-wood movie....

and assouncing--Bangkok Dangerous, where women raped get supported by men and girls can also drag race on motorbike and be tough and intelligent!

You just have to watch the move to see what I mean.  I also forgot the ending so this movie watched once again will be a very nice treat compared with the usual climactic death ending (it probably follows the same formula).

All I am doing is fighting to not be poisoned/drugged raped to death and more fascist nazi politicians like trump not put in office for brutalizing me (for years). The blue wave of newsom is just white nazi "liberal" men taking the controlled opposition side, the "progressives" are very guilty the white progressives act like closeted nazis the hate and racism they openly display towards me but in the "private" enclosure of fully-protected nazi teleportation. //Not a single political candidate for office of president will help me to block this trump brigade of sleazy dirty disgusting ugly rancid and in most important ways, utterly stupid blank scumgbags, instead they all join in. All the giggly cackling ones, the smiling "make america like roman and greek democracy" used car californication sales scumbags like new old scum---and the rest just all falll in line. Established crap like raskin are the minority nazis who have been promoted for putting pelosi's january 6 committee nito a public airing diverting from the actual DOJ investigation--and along with pelosi comes raskinn and all the rest all viciously assaulting me--meaning ALL politicians and anyone not eagerly a nazi in drag in the closet is too timid terrified to do more than smirk and laugh, joining in to appear that they are in complete agreement, if even those types exist.//Mutilation/slicing under cuticle to a severely damaged finger--15 years of knives slicing into my cuticles almost every night--my hands comletely deformed--(plus countless other nightly slashes, poisoning to my body skin and internally plus non-stop torture abuse using teleportation plus global all-business discrimination across-the-board all businesses landlords and then family and government up to all presidents, all candidates for president, all governors all senators all house reps and all of society). I put on a pair of opera gloves, then another pair of gloves with a sock tied to the end, then a wrap-around string which I tighten as much as possible, then another elastic band to tighten the string, then wrist bands which I wrap around as tightly as I can without extreme blood flow constriction, and one hand already bound up can't tie the other band as tightly as possible so they always get one of the hands every night--on top of that is a pair of compression socks--I double over the top layers of socks and than have a tightly-sewn long-sleeve sleepp shirt I also had to sew a mouth covering for due to my gum tissue being cut to the bone--underneath that they sliced my already entirely gouged out cuticle for left middle finger --swollen, red the veins on my hands perpetually swollen and enlarged due to non-stop healing attempts. Alll nais are black, almost all nails from complete destruction of cuticles and the nail bed.
