LOL! I used to own that movie. Yea, that movie was completely bizarro. I remember being scared of it as a child. I think you needed to be high to get that one... :sweat:

i remember everyone in the cinema walked out before it finished. only the four of us stayed to get our money's worth! :beaten:

Let me guess...."KILL"?

But it was quite enjoyable even without the subtitles actually. Hhmm... I'd say it's contra 300.

Didn't like how Takeshi Kaneshiro looked though. I mean, waht kind of bandit wears foundation, eyeliner, and does his eyebrows??

Someone uploaded it to YouTube w/ his/her own English subs in like 20 parts, but it's the 'sanitized' mainland China version and the subs aren't that great (they're ok grammatically but didn't convey the real/whole meaning). The uncut R3 DVD version w/ English subs will be released in Hong Kong sometime next week.

And no, Takeshi Kaneshiro did not wear any foundation/eyeliner/whatever (that was revealed in a TV interview conducted in Hong Kong by the wife of the director, also on YouTube but in Cantonese/Mandarin).

hhmm... worst movie. I remeber watching some movie with the spice girls on it. you know, the one with the freaky funky bus

LOL no. i didn't even catch any of whatever Jet Li said. it's kaka, which is i think means similar to 'brother'

ew, seriously?? wow. then he's simply good looking (in a bit of both good and bad way). but still, he looked to 'clean' for bandit.

i saw 'cloverfield' today. i liked it but could happily lose the first 20 minutes. i realise that part was in the film for the audience to build up a relationship with the characters but after seeing the trailers i just wanted to get straight to the action. :mrgreen:

I finally saw "Persepolis" today. I'd highly recommend it to those who like thoughtful and slightly rebelous animated film.

anyone going to see Will Smit's new movie Hancock? i just seen the Theater for it! It looks good i think

I saw Cloverfield today. That movie was horrifying...just want happens to the characters. It was pretty good.

I hate this movie. not the good story for me :sweat:


back to topic, yesterday I watched CJ7. Quite good movie and I love Stephen Chow in here. His character of a nice and responsible father really moved me out

Yup.

This has got to be Ford's last hurrah in this role... He's no spring chicken...

He doesn't wanna milk it to death like Stallone with Rocky and Rambo... :sweat:

Yeah his over 60 now I believe....yeah good point about Stallone. Well maybe Ford can use some HGH and pretend he didn't like Roger Clemens.

Ford is 65... And Stallone is 61. :sweat:

LOL... That'd be okay: there's no drug screening by SAG presently. :hehe:
