Ip Man 2- Kicking ass in Hong Kong!
Awww shit! I just saw the 1st one on Friday here on campus, they had a showing by the HK Student Association. It was pretty good, loved Yen and liked the action...it was good but a bit too formulatic. Anyway..this looks badass. Discuss, you crazy HK action lovers!
This needed it's own thread anyway...

I liked the first one alot. The bootleg I bought off Amazon sucks, I should buy an official copy.
Anyway that trailer looked pretty good, nice to see Sammo still kicking ass well into his 50's.
When's the last time Jackie and Sammo made a movie together? They need to get the old crew (Yuen Biao as well) back together for another film, and throw in Donnie Yen and Jet Li for good measure.

I still haven't seen the 1st one. You know most martial arts movies are formulatic, it's their choreography that makes them great.
Btw I never knew Donnie Yen was one of the villains in Shanghai Knights. A short but good fight, but they made it seem as if Donnie won that.

Interestingly enough, Sammo Hung isn't happy with how his fight scenes with Donnie Yen turned out. He had just undergone heart surgery and couldn't go all out. So he wants to collaborate with Donnie Yen in another feature so they can do something better.

That wasn't all out? Man, I love Sammo. Fuck yeah...put them in another movie. I don't mind as long as there's great kicking of ass HK style.

Re: Ip Man 2- Kicking ass in Hong Kong!
Can't wait to see this if it gets released stateside. Either way, I can always hope for a HK DVD/BD release sometime this year
I thought I had read that the HK disc fared a little better in the PQ department. If it is equal, I might have to order the UK BD sometime soon.

Wikipedia says:
asianxcore: I like that fight a lot but...the Donnie Yen vs. Wu Jing was much much better. I'd give the edge to the Hung vs. Yen but that horrid ending to their little bout just took me out of the film. It was too far fetched for the tone of fighting they were going for. And for those of you not in the know of wtf I'm talking about:
ALSO...HK is an amazing institution for editing of action. Probably the best.
SPL: Sha Po Lang aka Killzone (US title, Dragon Dynasty did a pretty damn good DVD off of this check it out)

Let me just remind...that really is a big guy moving that fast. He's Jackie Chan fast if you need a reference.

Still, I'd love to see Donnie Yen, Jing Wu, and Sammo Hung collaborate again.
Check out Drunken Monkey for excellent action from Jing Wu. Lau Kar Leung directs and stars. It also features Gordon Liu.
