My first available book happened to be The Forbidden Game trilogy.

Her books were regarded very highly, so I decided to give one of her series a try. Smith's name on one of the Twilight forums. One by one the friends must confront their phobias to win the Game. Because the Game isn't just a game - it's the seven friends' new reality, where Julian reigns as the Prince of the Shadows. And when he places the Game into her hands, she knows their connection is something deeper.īut as Jenny and her six friends begin to play the Game at Tom's birthday celebration, a night of friends and fun quickly turns into a night of terror and obsessive love. There is something mysteriously alluring about Julian's pale eyes and bleached-blond hair. But as Jenny and her six friends begin to play the Game at Tom's birthday cele When Jenny buys a game for her boyfriend, Tom, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to the guy behind the counter.

When he's not writing, Brad enjoys going on a ride with the latest action hit or Netflix original, though he's also known to just pop in "The Room" from time to time.When Jenny buys a game for her boyfriend, Tom, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to the guy behind the counter. Brad also offers philosophical musings on martial arts and the filmographies of everyone from Jackie Chan to Donnie Yen on Kung Fu Kingdom, where he's also had the privilege of interviewing many of the world's great stunt professionals, and hearing plenty of gripping stories on injuries incurred in their line of work and the intricacies of designing the acts of death defiance he first thrilled to as a youngster. Today, Brad channels his thoughts on all manner of movies, from comic book films, sci-fi thrillers, comedies, and everything in between through his writings on Screen Rant.

Growing up, Brad developed an innate love of movies and storytelling, and was instantly enamored with the world of adventure while following the exploits of Indiana Jones, Japanese kaiju, and superheroes. In the end, The Forbidden Kingdom would ultimately stand as a fantastical kung fu fable with Jackie Chan and Jet Li joining forces for the first (and to date only) time.

The unutilized idea of Li playing Jason's sifu in the contemporary Boston setting is fascinating to look back on in how it would've altered the movie's story. Since its release, The Forbidden Kingdom remains a timeless and action-packed adventure of a teenager living his dream of mastering kung fu, as well as a highlight of Jet Li's English-language movies. Though Chan and Li's characters Lu Yang and Silent Monk are allies guiding Jason through his training and adventure, The Forbidden Kingdom also delivered the pair's first on-screen fight, much to the delight of martial arts fans around the world.

As Fusco mentions on the commentary, Chan and Li's involvement came about due to the then-unfulfilled desire by millions to see the two in a movie together. The Forbidden Kingdom was based by Fusco on a martial arts story created and told to his young son, which he then hit upon turning into a screenplay.
