Ong-Bak

[Rtificial]

Well I went and seen Ghost in the Shell 2 at a small Art theather Sunday. Before the movie they showed a load of Trailors for movies I haven't even heard of. One of the trailors that stood out was this bad ass kung fu flick called Ong-Bak.

So after a good bit of searching for the movie, title and such I finally hit pay dirt. Seems its coming to the US in November.

I also found a bunch of trailors for it HERE I HIGHLY recommend the Apple Quicktime trailor.

So have a lookie at the trailors and see if that pumps you up a bit about asian cinema.

Wow damn that was posted in 2003. Sure takes the US forever to get good flicks.

[Rumpy]

Yup. I didn't even know it was getting a US release, I've been wanting to see it since I heard about it.

[Despair]

Cool to hear its finally coming to U.S. Took them forever.

Creative team behind Ong-Bak, minus Tony Jaa, recently released another, balls to wall action flick. Trailer was posted a while back at KFC cinema board, and it looked like a mix between Shaolin Soccer with Ong Back, with team of soccer player beating the shit out of evil military and gangsters.

I will try to find the link and post it later.

The amazing thing about this movie is that the story doesnt even matter...you can just sit and watch this w/ your jaw wide open.

[Tsubaki]

Well maybe, but you are reminded time and time again that the story is just filler to get from one fight scene to the next. Anyone expecting a real film will be kinda disappointed.

Not that I didn't enjoy it for its awesome fights and stunts... I did. But you almost wish they didn't force making a movie out of it.

I've been waiting for a HK DVD release of this movie for some time now and well, it looks like I might be seeing the US release before I have a chance to buy the HK version.

I believe the HK and French dvd's are out already. I kept finding dvd reviews for em.
