So it's going to be Oldboy but in blackface and there will be a chicken instead of an octopus being eaten alive?

"In many ways, director Peter Chan Ho-sun's WU XIA has redefined the martial arts genre. His intention to create something unique and special is clear, and to a large extent, he has succeeded. The first half of the film involves the investigation of the deaths of two notorious criminals who are highly skilled fighters. The dissection of the fight scenes, which takes place in the investigator's mind, uses science to explain the injuries, and is a highly innovative way to tell the story.
After a strong start, the movie goes into action overdrive in the second half. Action fans will no doubt be very satisfied by the spectacular fight scenes, which are played, designed and choreographed by Donnie Yen himself. They are certainly up to the usual high standards that audiences have come to expect from him."
"WU XIA is a gorgeously and gloriously filmed martial arts film. It has top notch production values and some breathtaking action sequences. What impresses the most is the determination to create something new, something different and something original. It would have been nice to see the approach to the early action scenes also adopted in the second half of the movie, but this is just minor quibble for an otherwise wonderful film that can easily be considered a new martial arts classic."
Walking Dead Season 2 Promo Trailer Delivers The Slo-Mo Splatter
Check out this zombie movie made in Cuba! Juan of the Dead!
It's actually a comedy with social commentary about immigration but with zombies! Please have Fidel become a zombie. Though seeing how that was filmed in Cuba I really doubt they will have a scene like that.
The Hobbit is in the middle of filming. Screw all other movies, this is the one movie to rule them all. They released a new video diary.
Oh and here is Gloin!

CONFIRMED: Schwarzenegger Takes Lead In Kim Ji-woon's THE LAST STAND
Now that the faux furor over Arnold Schwarzenegger putting his thing where it didn't belong has died down, Deadline is reporting that Kim Ji-woon's The Last Stand is slated to move ahead in September with Schwarzenegger in the lead.
Here's how Kim has described the film:
My concept for The Last Stand is that it's kind of a combination of Die Hard and High Noon where (the latter) was about protecting something very important that needs to be protected, while Die Hard is a very drawn-out, long process that almost kills someone in the process, so my film will be something that has to be very well protected and in the process, we almost die protecting it in a way. So if I Saw the Devil was about a person's extreme remorse about having lost something that they couldn't protect, The Last Stand would be where someone puts their lives on the line to protect something that's very important and it will be a bit more optimistic film in that regard.

New Action Packed Trailer For TINTIN
U.S. Trailer and DVD Box Art for the Vietnamese Actioner Clash
So the tintin movie is based on the Secret of the Unicorn which leads into the Red Rackham's Treasure story.

These two stories have already been animated in the classic Tintin movie boxset which me and Bugsie own. I thought I had seen where Tintin and Haddock met before when Haddocks ship was hijacked. I've seen this already.
gamingeek said:Is he played by John Rhys Davies too? No one would know.
Because they look so generic. True.
More info here on the Oldboy reworking.
A mix of manga and movie, new stuff, sort of like the Departed.
New info on Kim Jee Woon's Schwarzenegger film:
Schwarzenegger will be starring as Sheriff Owens, a man who has resigned himself to a life of fighting what little crime takes place in sleepy border town Sommerton Junction after leaving his LAPD post following a bungled operation that left him wracked with failure and defeat after his partner was crippled. After a spectacular escape from an FBI prisoner convoy, the most notorious, wanted drug kingpin in the hemisphere is hurtling toward the border at 200 mph in a specially outfitted car with a hostage and a fierce army of gang members. He is headed, it turns out, straight for Summerton Junction, where the whole of U.S. law enforcement will have their last opportunity to make a stand and intercept him before he slips across the border forever. At first reluctant to become involved, and then counted out because of the perceived ineptitude of his small town force, Owens ultimately accepts responsibility for one of the most daring face offs in cinema history.
