ie crouching tiger hidden dragon...shaolin soccer...house of flying daggers... they all did well at the box office cuz it's still a relatively new thing for them but it's not new to chinese people...that's why we dont think they are so great :P |

And movies like crouching tiger and flying daggers.. well they sort of fit into their own category as well, because until now, you have likely never seen such a wonderfully produced and directed movie. With these movies, I think it just 'happens to be' a kung fu movie. So like ulic said, bruce lee was hugely popular here before you or I were even born. Belive me, north americans aren't new to chinese or kung fu movies. And jaded chinese people don't (or shouldn't) find shaolin soccer or kung fu hussle to be 'more of the same'. Both movies were HUGELY popular in hong kong. In fact, they have been some of the most successful movies in HK in the past 10 years! I think you are totally misunderstanding these movies, and what makes them popular. Maybe CBC's fit into their own category in this regard? |

stephen chow = comedy so its big difference now with his new movies... they just arent as funny as his old stuff... u gotta admit to that. i guess he is trying out new roles... i myself would not mind him making a comedy like in the old days... house of frying faggots was ok. the story line wasnt that bad, same with hero (same director i believe)... but to be honest, i saw it cuz it was the new movie out, and zhang zi yi was in it... |

all his old stuff rocked! |
house of frying faggots?! HAHAHAHA i gotta check that one out. |
|
His old stuff is hilarious... but I think you need to understand cantonese for it to be really funny. |
i think for the people that didn't find the movie to be good is because they don't have a good understanding of old hk movies. Most of the movie was an tribute to the old movies that made hk movies the way we love them. He takes the bunch of movies and adds new elements to it. I personally enjoyed it, just had a good time trying to see what movie they were referencing. |
