Today's victim will killed by ....THE SATURDAY KILLER!!!

sourceTwitch
Thailand is famous alot of things Great sunshine, great food, and ehh ladyboys but they are good at mashups of various genres and there's one director who is the master at it and thats Yuthlert Sippapak.
It was the name of this movie intrigued me SATURDAY KILLER and how Sippapak's doing back to back sequels (i:e Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,etc....) matching comedians with beautiful young starlets. Each movie had a slight variation and oddly the movies werent released in order of the days there killer was based on either?!
As i what the actual story is all about, your guess is good as mines, I wonder if this is a funnier version of Smokin' Aces?
Trailer For Saturday Killer  is after the break....

When your going to bring a classic story as in classic Manga/Anime to the big screen its good to pick a classic sometime and Fumhiko Sori has done that with Tetsuya Chiba & Asao Takamori’s classic boxing manga Ashita no Joe (Tomorrow’s Joe).
With the poser of the internet I have been able to watch some of the classic anime's online as I am a massive fan of old school retro Japanese animation. Dont get me wrong I do love current anime but there just an essence piece of magic connected with classic animation that you just cant put words to but you know you love it.
The story focuses on the story of Joe Yabuki a troubled young man and he meets Dampei Tange who teaches Joe the art of boxing. During a stint in prison Joe meets a boxing prodigy Toru Rikiishi whom a respectful but fierce rivalary develops and their battles inspire other inmates to take up boxing resulting in various battles  of whom are all of different skill levels and weakness.

Trailer for John Woo's REIGN OF ASSASSINS

Source Twitch
Since John Woo decided to move back into the Hong Kong/Chinese movie market I feel a sense of confidence, happiness, a man back on form. Woo'smovie seem to have moved back up to the top where they belong and he is a fine example that Hollywood isn't the dreammaker many filmakers & actors see Hollywood as. Its dogeatdog world and if you hack it on the first attempt and keep the momentum going dreams turn to knightmares.
Bought Red Cliff last week on DVD and if you give me anything set in China when chivlary is in order with John Woo behind the lens Im sold! Here is the first trailer for REIGN OF ASSISSANS which Woo co-directs and produce, proper old school here! The movie is currently in pos-tproduction but what we do know is that Weinstein Company have the American rights so we can expect a release in UK too! Yesss!!!

Movie stars Michelle Yeoh, Woo-sung Jung, Barbie Hsu, Kelly Lin and Shawn Yue, trailer after the break...

First Trailer For Song Hae-sung's Korean remake of A Better Tomorrow - INVINCBLE

source FILMSMASH
Song Hae-sung''s Korean remake of the classic John Woo Hong-Kong thriller noir A BETTER TOMORROW, now called INVINCBLE has its first trailer.
The talk of the movie has stirred up a few corners as the original movie (as well as movie 2) have some iconic scenes which some up the whole reason why Hong Kong thriller/action flicks have such a massive following worldwide. According to the director only the characters as well as the basic set up of the story remaining with the rest having a modern retake on the original, I think their treading on eggshells as the 1980's feel and look of the movie madeit so good.
As it's Korean the badguys in this version will be North Korean special forces entering the world of organised crime, mmm what do you think guys?

Anyway check out the trailer after the break...

source 24FramesPerSecond
If this movie was a cheeseburger the amount of cheese on it would rocket you cholesteral leve; through the roof, but hey we do love what were seeing from MR & MRS INCREDIBLE.This was one of the reason I love cinema, something a little different, cheesy but fun looking and sadly we dont get enough of that in mainstream hollywood these days. The movie stars  Louis Koo and Sandra Ng as our heros and the movie did play out at Cannes and did get a great reaction and you can see why in the 3 teaser trailers after the break. The teasers are called "The Moon-landing story", "The Superman story" and "The Golf story" each with there mini story to tell about the movies protaganists.
This is over the topstuff here, though funny full of action as well been created on a big budget, will it be a big sucess, hard to tell as asian markets are alot different than western ones, but dont be surprised if this is a sucess itll be ripped off by Hollywood in a cheap looking remake.
