Member reason108 Posted July 28, 2013 Member Share Posted July 28, 2013 Damn you, Michael Bay! No, wait, wrong thread. No, wait, this is the right thread. Looks like Tony has gone Hollywood on us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member derwood Posted July 28, 2013 Member Share Posted July 28, 2013 ...looks more promising, apart from Rza... whom I wish would just go away. HA, was thinking the same thing, why is he even in there? & why does that scooter shoot vertically from a stairwell out a roof? lets just hope Tony is getting closer to his Ong Bak style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member sifu iron perm Posted July 28, 2013 Member Share Posted July 28, 2013 HA, was thinking the same thing, why is he even in there? & why does that scooter shoot vertically from a stairwell out a roof? lets just hope Tony is getting closer to his Ong Bak style Tony Jaa was supposed to have a part in The Man With The Iron Fists but because this movie's production kept stalling it couldn't happen. However, RZA and Jaa got into talking so RZA helped on the production of this movie, and in return Jaa would star in Iron Fists 2 if that was ever to happen (since it barely made any money, it won't).

Member ShaOW!linDude Posted July 28, 2013 Member Share Posted July 28, 2013 Actually, the 1st trailer (the unofficial one, I guess) intrigues me more than this one. I don't care about action clips from Jaa's past films seeing as I watch them all the time, and this preview seems for stunt heavy than MA driven.

Hey ShaOW!linDude, I'm curious based on your preference for fight action over stunts...what's your opinion on the popular movies in the genre that are stunt driven, the one's that immediately spring to mind are 'Born to Fight' and 'Project A Part 2', but I'm sure there's plenty of others as well. For me personally, I love a good stunt movie just as much as a good fight movie, so this trailer has me sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member SiamKnight Posted July 29, 2013 Member Share Posted July 29, 2013 Looking good in the trailer. Expect it to be a no so good movie with a lot of good action scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member MLee Posted July 29, 2013 Member Share Posted July 29, 2013 Looks interesting from seeing the trailer. Would have liked to see more martial arts action as this seemed to focus mainly on the stunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me personally, I love a good stunt movie just as much as a good fight movie, so this trailer has me sold. Don't get me wrong. I love both though I tend to lean more towards the fight scenes. It just seemed to me that the first trailer had fight and stunt action while this one seems more stunt-driven to appeal to action film fans more so than MA film fans. Chan's POLICE STORY 1 & 2 would be two I'd include with the ones you mentioned. I think stunt-driven film films of this type are good as a hook to lure viewers to the genre. Thai films especially seem to be pushing that way, and those guys do some stupid crazy stunts sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Drunken Monk Posted July 30, 2013 Member Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think this trailer reflects a slow-but-steady trend in marketing and that's to essentially mask the fights. I've seen a bunch of trailers (especially teasers) that simply suggest the action instead of giving us a series of exchanges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member helios Posted August 22, 2013 Member Share Posted August 22, 2013 Am I the only one that think this looks like garbage?? Hollywood explosions, 3D, RZA. I agree that other leaked clip looked better - this one had zero interesting action (all looked super fake anyway). Maybe I'm just grumpy, I don't know. Also, the hair whip at 0:45, wtf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member The Amazing Psycho Per Posted August 23, 2013 Member Share Posted August 23, 2013 You are not alone. I used to be excited like a little child whenever a trailer to a Jaa movie was released, but this one is very underwelming. I loved TYG but this looks worst then Ong Bak 3. I really hope I'm wrong.

Member SiamKnight Posted August 27, 2013 Member Share Posted August 27, 2013 I really have lost faith in Tony Jaa a long time ago, but I checked out some of his new practice videos on his official facebook. He looked really fresh and it looked like he still got it. I really hope that he learned of this past and plan his career more carefully. I really don't know how to post video on here but I can give the link of his facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tonyjaastyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member slinky Posted August 28, 2013 Member Share Posted August 28, 2013 That pic looks like it was taken right from a certain Bruce Lee movie. (Facebook pic) I can't say i am not alittle excited to see Tony back in action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Gwai LO Posted August 28, 2013 Member Share Posted August 28, 2013 Official synopsis sounds like they are promising a lot more fights than most expected Kham (Tony Jaa) has become the suspect in the murder of Suchart- the influential owner of an elephant camp, who was killed by three punches to the dead spots by a martial arts expert, and Kham (Tony Jaa) was the last one seen at crime scene. He needed to run away from the authorities and the hunt by Suchart’s twin nieces (Jija Yanin and Teerada Kittisiriprasert) Luckily, he was helped by Sgt. Mark (Petchtai Wongkamlao) the Interpol who was sent from Sydney to handle some secret mission. Kham keeps on running while trying to find Khon, the elephant whom he loves like his own brother who was kidnapped a few days ago. The longer he runs, he more he gets involved in a secret organization led by LZ the big boss who is very passionate in collecting fighters from all over the world into his secret stable. His fighters like Twenty (Ratha Pho-ngarm) and Number Two (Maritz) intend to grab Kham to satisfy their boss’ objectives. Be prepared for the extreme fights by Tony Jaa with various action disciplines, all death defying and the risky fight scenes designed by the Thai action movie which the whole world is waiting to see in 3D shooting platform.

Member Drunken Monk Posted August 29, 2013 Member Share Posted August 29, 2013 Second teaser - That quick, two second exchange halfway through the trailer actually looked really quick and powerful. It gives me hope that the film won't just be big stunts and flip kicks. Buuuuuut...feet on fire? Again? Someone's getting lazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member TibetanWhiteCrane Posted August 29, 2013 Member Share Posted August 29, 2013 way better than the first one.... little more interested now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member helios Posted August 29, 2013 Member Share Posted August 29, 2013 Second teaser - Looks better here than the first. Though lot's of sloowwww motion. Also, lol @ the Prometheus music. EDIT: The speed-up at 00:30 couldn't be any more jarring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member SiamKnight Posted August 29, 2013 Member Share Posted August 29, 2013 LOL... I read the Thai language comments on this Teaser. It seems that the sexy villain girl (Her name is Yaya Ying) caught more attention than Tony Jaa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member OpiumKungFuCracker Posted August 29, 2013 Author Member Share Posted August 29, 2013 If I can see the action, I will see this movie/ it's that simple. I want to see who is doing the kicking, who is getting kicked. Who is doing the punching, who is getting punched. I want to see combinations/styles/sound f/x, if it meets these requirements, I'm strapped in!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
