I swear that this DVD cover has not been altered in any way.
Nowthat's postmodern irony!
One of Hong Kong cinema's iconic faces.
I remember how happy I was to see him in The Detectivea few years ago, and I wish he had been around more often.
For a very uncharacteristic role that he carries off well, please buy and watch The Blue Jean Monster/著牛仔褲的鍾馗.
It's on DVD, too, so don't be goo haan and watch it on VCD. Big Silly Head deserves better...Read more
I saw this film last Saturday and have waited until now to post this entry because I wanted to be sure I still felt the same things now that I did when I first viewed it. More or less, I do.
This started off as my shortest movie review ever. But I couldn't decide on the two-word version or the three-word version:
1) "F@#$ SARFT."
2) "F@#$ Jeff Lau."I&...Read more

I really do try not to be bitter. But single-hood, combined with celibacy, have made me at least... .
Here's a few reasons why.
Recently I find that the most pronounced effect pretty young women have on me is making me realize my own (by comparison) advanced age. I never try to talk to them (read: hit on them) because I am so squeamishly aware of the age difference.
Another thing that makes me bitter?
People (often women) telling me what a great guy I am...Read more
It's easy for me to go berserk about a bad movie; too many recent films have been 'spleen Viagra.' But I realized I don't go out of my way to write positive reviews, and I should. So...
Turning Point/Laughing Gor之變節is a TVB/Shaw Bros. production taken from a TV series (as far as I can tell).
Shaw Brothers?
Directed by Herman Yau?
<...Read moreDid you ever stop to think about how awful it must have been to have to sit through Lust Caution and decide just how much of it to get rid of?
Can you imagine having to tell directors how to construct or modify films when you have absolutely no experience or education in filmmaking?
For some people, this horrible existence is all too real.
But now, thanks to technology (even if it does come from a morally corrupt nation of imperialists), we no longer need actual humans sifting through potentially 'offensive...Read more
100,000 visits!If this keeps up I might start thinking that what I say matters in some way shape or form.
Oddly enough, as often as I complain about my hermit-like existence, I was actually out of the house when this milestone occurred.
Although I was still the 'third wheel,' so even in success I still squeeze enough ink out of my spleen to fill out a Complaint Form.
But thank you to everyone who reads my blog and/or looks at the pictures.
I promise I will do my best to keep both interesting, and ma...Read more
WARNING: POTENTIALLY OFFENSIVE IMAGES
As part of the summer HKIFF, I indulged in this highly guilty pleasure last weekend.For a long time, I avoided Japanese cinema in general and these 'video nasties' in particular. At some point, however, I began to change.
It was probably picking up some Japanese DVDs at very cheap prices.
The other thing that ma...Read more
I have previously written that one nice thing about hallucinogenic drug use is that it provides a nice, convenient coping mechanism: whenever life gets too weird, you can always tell yourself "I am obviously hallucinating this," and whatever is happening stops bugging you so much.
Trust me on that; no need to try it yourself.
Well, this was one of those days, except I was not, unfortunately, high as a giraffe ass.
On a recent afternoon, I found myself heading to Wanchai to be a judge in a milk tea making compet...Read more
Maybe the recession is worse than I thought. These signs usually read 300"
Distinguished young girls"?Distinguished by deformed limbs, knife scars and cold sores, probably.
Thank God for the light switch. And bourbon.
If we don't support the movies that deserve it, we get the movies that we deserve.
