Channel 9 used to run “Kung-Fu Theater”, where they showed poorly dubbed martial arts movies of the 1960s and 1970s. “Kung-Fu Theater”, and later “Black Belt Theater”, introduced me to martial arts movies and the memes associated with them. You know the memes: the exaggerated chopping and blocking sound effects and the cases where the character’s lips were still moving even though the voice dubbing them had stopped. As a kid, the movies didn’t make any sense and I didn’t bother to remember anything about them other than that I enjoyed them.
