Cheeky fuskers! I hope you've notified our Legal Department.
Isn't there some sort of rule of thumb with Batman like there is with Star Trek? with ST every odd numbered one was shite and even was good - or vice versa.
The Batman rule is probably 'all Batman films are shite'.
I reserve the right to amend teh Batman Ruyle to 'All Batman sequels were shite'.
I forgot about the 60s one - I quite liked that but I don't think I've seen it since I was 13 or something.
I HATE flying kung fu movies. Hero just didn't appeal to me.
Give me an old fashioned kickabout in a tea room any day.
But does it involve flying Kung Fu?
And has your boss died?
So what you're saying is you need to be supervised to be effective. Peon. ;)
And Flying Daggers is shite. Because it's a Kung Fu On Strings movie. Pah.
I've got a load of borrowed Jet Li / Jackmaster Chan Chinese language Kung Fu DVDs in the house to watch over Christmas. Tremendous.
I just watched the one with the old bloke out of Drunken Master and Jackie Chan - Eagle Claw Something Or Other. Tremendous.
Tremendous stuff. C4 are usually THE Jackie Chan-nel. Twunts.
Yeah? Old bloke in straw hat doing kick ass moves.
I've just looked and the film we watched the other day is Snake In Eagle's Shadow. The bloke that appeared in this and Drunken Master is apparently called Siu Tien Yuen.
It's been a while since I've seen DM but the character looks pretty much the same (same clothes / manner /etc) in both films.
Looking at the other DVDs there they are mostly early Jet Li. And not a single one of them is Kung Fu On Strings. W00t!
The HK Jet Li films are good - I've only seen a couple but the fights are fscking awesome. One was about 2 kids growing up in a Shaolin Temple then getting expelled. One sides with the evil Lord type and the other sides with rebels. The final fight scene between the two is one of the best fight sequences I've seen.
I've heard the name of that Ghost film but that's it. No doubt that will end up on C4 or BBC2 at some point.
