Trailer for 《殺破狼2》 / 《SPL 2》 with Tony Jaa and Wu Jing taking the centre stage this time, alongside Zhang Jin, Yam Tat Wa, and Koo Tin Lok.
weird they avoided showing tony jaas face til that one scene with his name. odd
I swear both Donnie Yen and Jason Scott Lee look like they haven’t aged a bit. I know JSL is close to 50 but he still looks like he did in Dragon. Here I thought “Black don’t crack!”. LOL!!
Looks like Skin Trade dropped today (Ludgren, Jaa and MJW). Gonna watch it later. If its a decent copy will upload it to my dropbox for you all.
I’m about 10 minutes in. Not sure how I feel about it already. I know they don’t need to have Jaa speaking though. Dude just needs to stick to beating up the baddies.
Vodlocker and Downloadhelper got my back on this one. I hate mkv files, since they’re huge. Mp4 is fine for me, since I like to watch stuff on my phone, away from home. Jesus, Lundgren looks too fuckin’ old for this movie.
Lundgren looks like he has aged terribly since Expendables, like for a genius and legit MA dude he really did fuck up on looking after himself, musta hit the bottle hard somewhere last decade or something lol or hes been reading the reviews for the last 20 of his movies or some shit.
That said anybody seen Command Performance? The premise, well everything about the movie was bullshit (He is a former biker in a band that is playing in Moscow, terrorists try to gank Vlad Putin n ole Dolph throws away the drum sticks and starts beating ass lol) I enjoyed this nonsense, he was putting out some damn good moves for an old man. A lot better than his shit in the Expendable trilogy.
Got Skin Trade on download though.
I find it interesting Bruce Lee’s mom was half german.
Thats where the Jeet Kune Do came from, cant mess with that German efficiency.
lmao my Sifu says the exact same thing!
…wait
Germany is truly the best.
Best women
best efficiency
Best Science in the world! [details=Spoiler]

this thread got really weird all of a sudden
Finally finished watching Skin Trade. Its okay I guess. Not enough fight scenes for my taste. Too much gun action, and hearing Tony Jaa talk was just weird. Maybe I am spoiled from watching the kitchen fight scene from The Raid 2, but the fight between Jaa and MJW was kind of sweet, but very short lived and really shows that they have not really evolved too much in choreography.
Honestly after watching this, I think that the hype for Jaa is pretty much over. Iko, Cecep and Yanya Ruhian have basically taken fight scenes to a new level which I am now kind of comparing every new fight scene to (which is a bit unfair).
But the movie is worth the one watch, but I wouldn’t rush to see it honestly. I give it a 4.5/10
Told you guys Jaa is a glorified punk ass acrobat ages ago, shiat his best appearance (save ST which ill watch later) so far has been the bodyguard, think hes in it for 2 seconds. Actually youtube…
Well when Ong Bak first came out that shit was mad hype. I think for me after I saw Ong Bak 2-3 and Protector 2, I noticed how he didn’t really do anything different. When I saw the Raid, I was like “what the fuck am I watching” The fights were more brutal and diverse than Jaa’s knee to head followed by elbow, etc. Honestly I think Marrese Crump (black guy in protector 2) did a way better job than jaa, and I am hoping to see him in more films as well. I guess the way I see it, is that these young directors are bringing something different to MA films by not going the same cheesy route.
Yay! Finally got the time to watch Ruroni Kenshin 2.
[spoiler=]i guess I should’ve known they’d edit stuff but the last scene with kaoru getting kidnapped thrown overboard and kenshin jumping into the sea was kinda “meh” to me.
It’s still ok though. I’d have to watch it twice to see if I like it more than the first.[/spoiler]
This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:
Up next on my MA marathon…
Ruroni Kenshin 3.
K Skin Trade. No way to sugar coat it the movie some some terrible shit. Like everything was bad, the story the characters the pacing the fighting the effects the music (that weird upbeat RPG melody playing when he is in the hosptial/ restaruant wtf?).
Dolph is Dolph doing his usual b movie spiel fucking shit up.
Jaa was not too bad, showed a bit of depth than what he normally does, his english wasnt as bad as I feared but his acting lol, just naw son.
MJW… seriously? Wtf did he even sign up to this shit?
ST totally missable, infact if you like any of these actors then you probably will want too. Also lol Cary Tagawa stealing money at this point.
Only redeeming feature of this piece of shit is Peter Weller who as per usual cant help but be awesome, and plays his part as the angry police captain pretty great. Tells a russian diplomat to fuck off, best part of the movie no joke. Ron Perlman should have stayed at home as well.
Movie had a budget of 9M dollars? I wanna see some receipts, 8M of it looks like it went up Dolphs nose the dirty bastard.
On the cool Japan needs to outsource its action flicks to Korea like they do their animation.
A friend showed me this today, oh my ears
That clip was better than Skin Trade, not bullshittin. It also is what happens everyday in HMP Barlinnie by the sounds of it holy shit.
