I’m so ready for this. But I’m sure every girl in the world is peeing in their pants for Rain.

Looking good.

I read that Rain fights Colbert (who plays the Big Boss) at the end. I also had no idea Naomi Harris was in this. I love her, and she’s hot.

I’m betting they’ll try to downplay the wackowski’s role in this after the speed racer debacle. (decent movie but definitely not good for the bros careers.)

More like behind-the-scenes footage, but still cool. I’ve been waiting for a good ninja flick to come around, so I’m definitely going to check this out. Hopefully the story has some substance and depth to it so this doesn’t become just another 2-hour demo reel for the fight choreographers.

I’m optimistic.

Another movie to get from torrents! Lucky I didnt go see hancock in cinemas! Watching DK 4 times instead was well worth it!

@You Know: really? i’m hoping the exact opposite for the Dragon Ball film. I’m hoping Stephen Chow leans hard to add the kickassery of Kung Fu Hustle’s fights.

“kung fu, tae kwon do, tai chi”
WTF?! tai chi?! that’s not used for fighting!
also, since when do ninjas do kung fu?! where in the hell is the ninjitsu?
and rain isn’t even japanese, is he? damn you hollywood and your inaccuracies!

i’m not as optimistic.

Kevin: Good story and good kickassery aren’t mutually exclusive.
