No comments:

source TWITCH
It's not just the American's who remake movies left right and centre, The Asian market has its fair share of remakes some obscures other you expect but at no time would I see a Coen Brother's movie been remade but one has. That movie is Blood Simple and below is the American Trailer for A WOMAN, A GUN AND A NOODLESHOP.
The movie has been remade by House of The Flying Daggers/Hero director
Yimou Zhang and typically Chinese they concentrate more on the humour factor rather the drama  and guess what American fans can catch this movie as it goes on a limited release on September 3rd as for UK &Ireland there is no word, more likely direct to DVD.

Early days for this movie weren't looking with it even missing possibly the festivals but thankfully it made Cannes and now several months on here is  Jiang Wen’s LET THE BULLETS FLY. offical trailer.

This looks a visually fantastic looking Period piece and its one thing I can say about the Chinese when it comes to period based movies they go all out to make it as authentic  as possible in a grand scale and it has a rock music score to compliment it. You know sometimes they things happen for a reason, maybe the delay was the best thing to happen to this movie as it looks mighty fine movie!

Movie stars Chow Yun-fat, Ge You, Carina Lau, Fan Liao, and Yun Zhou and will be in Chinese cinemas from  December 16th.

Trailer For Cannes Selected I WISH I KNEW

Zhang Ke Jia is a big favourite with the film festival network and his network continued into this years Cannes festival with the selected movie of I WISH I KNEW.


Now the movie is getting a theatrical release below after the break is the trailer, which does give an overall protrayl of Shnghai, China's largest populated city.

Shanghai, a fast-changing metropolis, a port city where people come and go. 

Shanghai has hosted all kinds of people – revolutionaries, capitalists, politicians, soldiers, artists, and gangsters. Shanghai has also hosted revolutions, assassinations, love stories.

After the Chinese Communists' victory in 1949, thousands of Shanghaiers left for Hong Kong and Taiwan. To leave meant being separated from home for thirty years; to stay meant suffering through the Cultural Revolution and China's other political disasters.

I'm not a massive Martial Arts fan but there is a few martial artists cum Actors you have to show respect for because there so good. Donnie Yen is, he's probably number 1 box office smash in China and his latest movie Jing mo fung wan: Chen Zhen(Legend Of The Fist:Return of Chen Zhen).
If anyone thinks hollywood have got the suff when it comes to martial art superhero type movies like 2011's Green Hornet? Think Again Donnie shows Hollywood hows done with this movie and more I see of his movie Im sure ill be a 100% convert of martial arts flicks.

this is the real deal, check out the teaser trailer after the break and if your Chinese this movie you should check it out and you can do that on September 23rd.

Its days like this I'm greatfull where I live (Scotland) for the sake that earthquakes have a 1% chance of ever happening in my country. Lets go to China the biggest populated country in the world, it's 1976 Tangshan City in Hebei province on July 28, the world's worst earthqauke destroy's the area with a 7.8 on richter scale killing nearly 250,000 people and injuring just as many, its a tragic event. 

Feng Xiaogang's movie AFTERSHOCK is centered around this event following the tragic events through the eyes of a little girl. This is not a disaster movie as in the sense of fictional Towering Inferno, this is based on a true event which no one ever wants to see but tragically does occour, this is a weepie folks an emotional rollercoaster ride.
The movie is due out on July 22nd in china and will be the country's first produced IMAX movie and the poster on the left is for the American release  as in when it is I dont have or even if there's a UK release too, hopefully there will be.
Check the synopsis and trailer, Featruette after the break...

Trailer For Chinese Anime KSITIGARBHA

No comments:


















source Twitch
China isn't renowned for been a centre of producing animation,thats animation in the same frame and to the same qaulity as there neighbours Japan . Every so often there always comes a project which could match that qaulity of the Japanese anime masters and below theres a trailer for a movie that could be one of those projects, its called KSITIGARBHA.
The movie has been directed by Wu Hanqing and will be released by Beijing based animation house Vasoon. Visually it does look it does look really great, wait until half way when the action kicks in, the only doubt I have in this movie is the actual story is it good enough as you know a good story is usually a good movie (well 75% of the time!). There's a biggest religious feel to the movie especially Bhuddism  definately one of caution, I would love to get my hands on this movie and many other movies but Im only a blogger!
check out trailer after the break...

Trailer For Chinese Period Comedy-drama The Dragon and Phoenix Inn

No comments:



Source FilmSmash
There's not anything I can say on this trailer but its for Chinese/ Hong Kong period comedy THE DRAGON & PHOENIX INN, which has Richie Ren and Barbie Hsu both big names in the chinese cinema. It does look like it has plenty of kong-fu action scenes, plenty of laughs and it does last nearly 5 minutes which isnt unusal for a chinese movie.
anyway no graphics so the trailer is there instead.

I just recently got a few glimpses at CJ7 from my friend who likes to delve into the unusal movies from the world I have to say I liked it, was made funnier by the dodgy english voiced dubbing they use as well.What I watched of the movie I have to say im not surpised a cartoon version has been made probably some of the live action version humour will be appreciated better.
Below is the teaser trailer for the animated version which will be out next month in China on July 6th, expect more whackiness/slapstick and if you loved shaolin Soccer there's even a little homage thrown in as well!!!
