Member 36tripsofdeath Posted December 5, 2019 Member Share Posted December 5, 2019 I think that this trailer above is really cool. I just don't know why it's so zoomed out. It shows lots of new footage and I really like all of the car chase stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Ramji Posted December 5, 2019 Member Share Posted December 5, 2019 Hmm, not sure about this anymore! Initially looked promising but it’s crappy cgi galore and dodgy wire work all over the place in these new trailers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member DragonClaws Posted December 5, 2019 Member Share Posted December 5, 2019 While offering nothing ground breaking, I think it's his best trailer since The Foreigner. A lot better than those Bleeding Steel, Railroad Tiger's, Kung Fu Yoga etc previews. This looks like it could be good light hearted entertiment. Jackie Chan has long since earned his action stripes and then some. I'd expect a lot of CGI/Wire's when Chan's the age he is. Wire's have also been a big staple of Martial Arts cinema since day one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. His only good trailer since The Foreigner and the last trailer I liked of his before that was for Police Story 2013. What seems to benefit a movie like this is that it's light-hearted in stark contrast to its topic but can amp up its own kind of seriousness through the shooting and firepower, you know, a glimpse at the thin line between life and death. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member laagi Posted December 6, 2019 Member Share Posted December 6, 2019 Pretty solid trailer(s) besides the awful CGI. Also I'm not sure if it's just me or did Chan's english get worse 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm not sure if it's just me or did Chan's english get worse Usually, when it is not an American production, they are not too concerned with how well Jackie speaks English. Jackie can speak good English when he is talking to a crowd or an individual but that's because his words are not predetermined by words on a page. On his US movies, directors will film many takes of his lines to make him sound more fluent. Especially in the case of the Rush Hour movies and The Protector. I think the English lines in his Chinese films are normally two takes at most. Jackie dubbing his voice in his movies has always been good except for with Police Story 2013. I had a very hard time understanding what Jackie was saying. Watching it in the original language was fine but I had to rely on what other characters were saying to figure out what was going on in the dubbed version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member NoKUNGFUforYU Posted December 30, 2019 Member Share Posted December 30, 2019 Terrorist=HK Citizens? Workers striking for better wages? Religious minorities? Ah Jackie. His family supposedly escaped China because of a totalitarian government, but once greed became the agenda, all was forgiven! Sorry, had to say it. Looks like more pro PRC nonsense. And I don't really want to watch the US version of that, either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Rodolphe Dux Posted January 6, 2020 Member Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Well the trailer is action packed but it will probably better than the movie, nothing new here and the cinematography is so flashy that my eyes bleed. Stanley Tong and Jackie Chan definitely have a thing for lions these days! Edited January 6, 2020 by Rodolphe Dux 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member sym8 Posted January 12, 2020 Member Share Posted January 12, 2020 Think this looks terrible hope I’m wrong but not expecting anything great here,like some have said awful cgi and dodgy wire work.Maybe Chan should concentrate on quality rather than bringing a movie out every couple of weeks(well that’s what it feels like to me) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member 36tripsofdeath Posted January 23, 2020 Member Share Posted January 23, 2020 Due to the Wuhan virus outbreak in China, Vanguard and three other Chinese movie releases have been postponed. When they will be released in theaters is unknown. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
