… that having Jet Li AND Jackie Chan starring alongside each other in the same movie would be nothing short of kick-ass, they release a trailer like this:

I am so disappointed, I won’t even tell you the name of the movie. I don’t know if they’re trying to appeal to both the action stars’ target audiences or what, but the chemistry is just plain sad. Jet Li is all in his own Hero zone, while Jackie Chan seems as if he simply fell out of the latest Rush Hour set right into the scenes of this movie. Wrong, wrong, it’s all so wrong! The last trailer I saw with this much “flop” written all over it was Glitter. And that one stars Mariah. Go figure. Skating. E~hehh…

On a different note, it’s cool to see Jackie Chan’s moves more choreographed to suit the fighting style in that “kung fu world” setting. But, who are we kidding, we all know that Jet Li can wushu the shit out of Jackie’s crap-hole any minute of any hour of any day. Booya!

nim’s island

Ever since I grew up to be a little kid smart enough to not let my cousins decide every single thing I watch, I’ve pretty much detested childish, Disney-type adventure/comedy movies, but this one I gotta post about.

So basically, Nim is a little girl who lives on an island…

… and this is funny because Nim is also my 23-year old Indian friend from Taman Tun(and not because I enjoy googling for pictures of random machas with afros ala Alleycats and photoshopping them into posters of cheesy flicks starring Jodie Foster).

Now this is something we can all look forward to. No, really.
