"05/04/08": I missed my deadline. I'm terribly sorry. Now, everything is going down the drain. Or maybe not?
For more information about the reasons and some more words of apology read
this small article.
"Wushu": Even though the news are a little bit old already, there are a few trailers you have to check out
for "Wushu", a movie produced by Jackie Chan featuring Sammo Hung. You can find the trailers and more info at
Twitch.
The movie surely looks promising and introduces some new fresh martial arts faces.
"The Forbidden Kingdom": New update on the Jet Li/Jackie Chan movie! Apart from some cool new posters released, which
you can find here
here, the
official site
is launched, and there is also a new and extended trailer to be found there. A trailer that really makes you wonder
if this movie is maybe, after all, not that much of a letdown as many expect it to be. The trailer really looks great, that
much is for sure!
"Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon": As already mentioned several months ago, there is another big budget
epic battle movie. This time by Daniel Lee. It is based on the famous novel
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and features Andy Lau, Maggie Q, Sammo Hung and Vanness Wu. Definitely check out the
trailer here, or an extended and better one at, what place else,
Youtube!
"Chocolate": Prachya Pinkaew's ("Ong Bak", "Tom Yum Goong") newest movie doesn't feature Tony Jaa in the cast,
but instead has a leading lady with the name Nicharee "Jeeja" Vismistananda! This time the director tries to deliver
a more profound story about an autistic girl. But rest assured: This is primarily a martial arts flick. And the action
once again looks breathtaking! You don't believe me? Check out the
trailer!
"Hansel and Gretel": Does everyone still remember the fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel"? The german fairy tale, which
is one of the most popular of the Brothers Grimm selection? Well, Korea makes its own fantasy thriller based on that tale,
and the pictures look absolutely gorgeous. Director Yim Pil-sung's ("Antarctic Journal") work really looks quite
promising. A trailer can be found
here.
"Mad Detective": It's time to help promote Johnnie To's newest HK-thriller! The cast consists of
Lau ching Wan, Lam Ka Tung and Andy On. As not the be expected otherwise the picture looks pretty good! You can
get the trailer
here. (Thanks to 24framespersecond.net for
the info.)
"The Forbidden Kingdom": Formerly known as the "J & J Project" there is finally a trailer to the movie. Although
the film by director Rob Minkoff is titled a kids movie, and even though leading actors Jet Li and Jackie Chan found
only little words of praise, yet, the trailer still looks quite appealing. Time will tell if the movie is any good at
all, but the trailer can be found at
Youtube, nonetheless.
"Shamo": From the same filmmakers, who did the gritty action thriller "Dog Bite Dog" comes the live adaption
of the manga "Shamo". In the main lead is Shawn Yue, and the movie once again looks very dark and dirty. Director
Soi Cheang surely tries his best to revive Hong Kong cinema. Trailer can be seen on
Youtube.
"L - Change the World": The Spin-off movie to "Death Note" has its own internet presence now. Just click at
the first link at the bottom of the official page to watch the trailer. The link can be found
here.
"Bullet and Brain": Very unexpectedly a trailer emerged for a promising looking HK-actionfilm. The movie's cast
includes such well-known names as Anthony Wong, Francis Ng and Eric Tsang. The cast gets complemented by probably
soon-to-be stars Alex Fong Lik-sun and Tang Yan. You can watch the trailer
here. As always when visiting the "Sina"-site: Press the
Pause button and wait until the trailer has been downloaded completely before you watch it.

"06.10.2007": I just needed a little bit of space for my own this time. There are some small changes
on the site, mainly the addition of a new category: The
TV Series directory. Little by little, I will add reviews about,
who would have thought, TV drama shows, fantasy series and whatevery there is in shape of a TV series.
Therefore, this update almost solely focuses on this new category, which means that there are three new
reviews this week. More to come. Furthermore, I try to reserve a little bit more time and space for the
soundtracks corner, as some of you might have noticed already. Well, as far as I'm concerned that's it for now
about infos that most likely no one else but me is interested in.
"Triangle": The long awaited collaboration between Hong Kong's first-class directors Tsui Hark, Ringo
Lam and Johnnie To finally yields fruits. In "Triangle" each of them contributed a 30-minutes movie,
of which every one continues the story of the former. If this movie doesn't deserve the tag "Can't wait
to see" which does? There is an official site up and running and there is also
a trailer you can download
here.(Thanks to twitchfilm.net for the
info).
"The Detective": Oxide Pang's new promising movie isn't a horror flick as to be expected from him, but a
thriller with a supposedly entangled story. The film's main protagonist is played by no one else than
Aaron Kwok.
You can watch the trailer
