shaolin soccer
this movie is so good i swear. punchy punchy kicky kicky! soccer ball!(the link is admittedly...in chinese...but watch it just for the opening animated sequence thingy.)
what brings on this vehement display of affection? well i went to see spykids2. (yes spykids 2. i saw spykids 1 too. whaddaya think about that, huh?) and one of the previews was for shaolin soccer. now at first i was a little confused because this movie already came out and i have seen it on dvd which i rented from my boyfriend at dvd depot. hot diggity damn. but they appear to be dubbing it and releasing it thru miramax in the states. i want you all to see it. jacob will see it. jacob will be uber excited. because jacob saw it already with me. yeah me and jacob! seeing the coolest shaolin monks playing soccer movie of all time.

the girl on the left in this picture is cecilia cheung.cecilia cheung for fuck's sake people. she's cameo-ing. be sure to also check out the legend of zu and help!!!, (both of those have ekin chang in them too. love him. love him so much.) she's no kristy yeung, but that's ok.
hmmm....i just found this review. now i am a little nervous. they cut things? and the dubbing is bad? it sounded ok in the preview.....

Hong Kong wacky movies? I love them.
Spy Kids was great and I am looking forward to seeing Spy Kids 2.

SHAOLIN SOCCER!!!!!!!!! In English? Things are cut? Maybe I’ll just be mad.…
I hope they at least kept SOME of the wackiness.

good lord. it’s like people decided to comment all at once and threw up all over my page.
tracy: spykids2 has steve buscemi who is at least as good with his wierd little animals as alan cummings was with his singings! i was laughing so much. mainly in shame. but still laughing.
jacob: i know. i am scared. super scared. maybe we should watch it again uncut to once again appreciate the comedic genius.

Umm. that would be me. It’s odd that you’ve decided that the hosting provider is the loser in this scenario and not the author of the page (or even the commenters). Anyhow, huzzah, bring on the hate.
And in retort, I propose that not only am I not a loser and that this site doesn’t suck, but that you are both a loser and suck Mr. Hater.
Your friendly hosting provider,
Gene
