After watching that, I'm all in.

Cash me in too.

I watched the first one well over a hundred times. Funny I was only just wondering when they would get to these movies.

As long as the Colonel Wilma Deering outfit stays nice and tight like it was for Erin Gray............. and the actress chosen is as cute of cors

Biddi-biddi-biddi!!!!

See, I watch a lot of Hong Kong Kung Fu and I found Crouching Tiger to be just more of the same. Nothing really original from the usual Kung Fu movies.

Art house Kung Fu - with a budget.

Why I am sticking with Chinese Ghost Story and Mr. Vampire....

The Auld Grump, Chinese Ghost Story is seriously strange....

So, I recall the summer of 81. It was early summer, and we kept seeing these BAD-ASS promos for this AMAZING looking movie ... Clash of the Titans. We just knew it was going to be the next Star Wars. Also, we saw these stupid promos that was just a black screen with some funky jazzy writing scrawled across it, what was it? Oh yeah, Raiders of the Lost Ark. Looked stupid. Certainly no Clash of the Titans.

It takes a lot to make a 12 year go, "wow, that was bad", but I came out of the theater after seeing Clash thinking just that. It was _BAD_. (And later we saw Raiders ... and the rest of that story is history.)


So, let's just say I went in with pretty low expectations. And I wasn't disappointed. It was cheesy, but fun. Compared to the original, it was GREAT (of course, Ishtar looks pretty good next to 81's Clash). The effects were cool, the Kraken was bad-ass, and it's always nice to see Alexa Davalos (from Chronicles of Riddick) on the big screen (and Gemma is easy on the eyes, too).
