well.

if you have ever seen a blockbuster and enjoyed it
star wars
harry potter
spiderman
shrek
troy
van helsing
i robot
titanic
armagedon
1000 ect

well they are all hollywood bullshit made to make money so the billionairs can now be a couple million richer.



this film. well you can see the love in it. it is an art..a skill.

jet li did not get payed to be in this film (he would have got a % of what the film made). he opted not to be payed so that the film would be beter



who the f### greedy actor in hollywood would ever do somthing like that

you tell me..


this film is a chinese blockbuster...$30 million.

in america you can make **** all for $30 million..

this has computer generated stuff..so for this film to be made in america would coast about $130 least.

meaning most people that worked on this film in china didnt get payed

by the way

most hollywood stars from movies actually had stunt mens and all that fake sh it to make them look good and popular for the work they didn't do

Jet li and Jackie Chan most of the time had
no stunt mens, in case u didn't know they were in martial arts
which means they earned what they deserved

well because this film is set in china 3000 years ago..it makes the film a tad bit believable


like what the matrix does...because its based on a world beyond out own...you never know..so it makes it more believable...

as to spiderman..which is totaly and utter bull s###..set in new york in modern time

Chans fight scenes are way too over-choreographed, they seem phoney.

Didnt know Jet Li was in his 40's!

I am afraid I have to agree with him. From what I have seen so far, it does look pretty rediculous. But then, I hate those movies with the crappy Matrix-wire fighting. It is so phony it sucks me out of the movie.

Jet Li is a great martial artist. His own skills should be enough for Quentin but I guess not. Why is Hollywood so anamoured with crappy wire fighting. Is there anyone anywhere who looks at that and believes it?

And yes, you can say a film "looks like it will be bad" just from seeing a preview or commercial. Just as you can think a movie looks like it will be good. This film looks like it will be pretty bad.

jet li... jacki chan... doesn't matter, they both have been "domesticated" after working here in america for as long as they have.... they are now mere farm animals brainwashed into saccrificing talent for the "bitches and the benjamins" .... so to you: jacki and jet,
welcome to america! skim from the top what you can and we will still see BAD movies, it's what we do. (hanging head low).

Well, if they don't like this movie, it's their own taste. If you like the way they work ancient Chinese fight scenes, then, you'll love this.

Yeah, what a piece of **** Medalion was.


I like the wire work in these movies. Its not suppose to look "real". They are fantasy and as such the wire work adds to the poetry of the movement.

But when you have a film that isn't fantasy and uses wire work to make something look real then its crappy, because 1.) the wire work is uncalled for and pretentious, and 2.) it's done poorly anyway. The show Mutant-X uses it constantly and they're really bad at it. Barf.
