Guest Hermeskungfu Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Has anyone any news on when the new Lau Kar-Leung movie is likely to be released or how it is going. The latest news I can find is over a year old and IMDB has nothing new. I love his films, though I hope its better than the mess that was Drunken Monkey. There were lots of rumours about this new film then all seems to have gone quiet. Perhaps it got cancelled ? Anyone know what happened ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hermeskungfu Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Thanks, that's kind of you to point me in the right direction. As a thank you have you seen this web site: http://www.bmovies.com/kungfumovies.php I just watched Street Fighter online and it seems to work pretty well.

Guest FrankyLau Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 latest news... LKL had a meeting with Tony Jaa and his manager in China,Tony is interested but had to see what role he would get...would be a baddie..lets see:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aeksis8742 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Oh man that would be interesting to see Tony in a villain role for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheGrimReaper Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Any movie (except Drunken Master 3) with and by LKL is always welcome, has to be patient and see what he will come up with in 2008, not to forget that in the same year there will be Ong Bak 2, Kung Fu Hustle 2 and The Forbidden Kingdom released...

Member 5 Element Boxer Posted November 1, 2007 Member Share Posted November 1, 2007 I've been waiting for the film to come out ever since I saw the trailer on youtube. And I heard something about Gordon Liu playing the role of Pai Mei (again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hermeskungfu Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I'm puzzled by this. A trailer for a film not even made yet. Have you a link for the trailer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest will91XingYu Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 This soudns so cool! Maybe this could be the project Tony Jaa and Donnie Ye could work on! Just imagine those two coreographed by Lau Kar Leung! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Sifu Posted November 1, 2007 Member Share Posted November 1, 2007 To me, I don't think Tony Jaa and Lau Kar-Leung would mesh well. There styles are very different and subsequently would clash or look forced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest will91XingYu Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I know what you mean, but i guess it would just be the fun of seeing these three make a film together, i was going to say that Lau Kar Leung had worked with really talented acrobats before like Hsiao Ho and Ching Chu, but then Tony Jaa is a muay thai guy with like a thousand other skills, but it'd would be cool if done right to see the results.

Guest wackiechan Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Would it sound like a bad idea to have LKL reunite w/ Jet Li in "Heroes of Shaolin"? LKL was the director of Jet's classic, "Martial Arts of Shaolin", IIRC. However, some of you might have said that LKL didn't get along that well w/ Jet during the production of "MAOS". So if that's true about "MAOS", then maybe the reunion would be a bad idea, especially because of Jet getting older. About "The Forbidden Kingdom", if that's the movie where Jackie and Jet finally appear together: Has this been known for not having that much HK movie involvement? I guess that the only HK movie connections that it has are Jackie, Jet, and also Yuen Woo Ping, if he is the fight choreographer. However, if those two former superstars of HK movies are going to finally appear together in a movie, then maybe the director or producer should've at least worked in HK before. some examples of possible HK directors include Sammo, and the directors of "Fist of Legend", "Black Mask", etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest doug maverick Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 yeah jet even said himself on his site that he didn't like lau sifu or the hk crew working there in general cause they were treated better. and lau kar lueng you know is a craftsmen but the way jet tells it he wasn't that professional on this film. showing up six hours late one day on set.

He probably feels that he has seniority. And maybe he's super-old! He's 71!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest will91XingYu Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I heard that Lau Kar Wing and Hsiao Ho are helping him with coreography. Also a new kind of Mad Monkey Kung Fu is being made with Bruce Liang, with Fong Hak On and Hsiao coreographing and i think having roles in it to. I heard this a while ago, it was announced when Bruce Liang's film with Vanneses Wu and Fan Siu Wong came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard this a while ago, it was announced when Bruce Liang's film with Vanneses Wu and Fan Siu Wong came out. Sounds promising, it's just sad that some of these amazing old-school choreographers like Hsiao Ho and Lau Kar Leung aren't gettin the big budget or Jackie Chan and Jet Li flicks any longer. It's just pretty much Sammo Hung, Yuen Woo Ping, Corey Yuen and Jackie running things on high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest will91XingYu Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 It's a shame, but it'll be cool to see these back in front and begind the camera making new films. Does anyone know if Kung fu Fighter with Bruce Liang and Fan Siu Wong is any good? Also Bruce Liang has made a film with Shawn Yu based on a manga called Shamo.

Guest deathdunt Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I will definitly be purchasing Kung Fu Fighter as soon as it comes out. I tend to purchase all of the movies the studio, My Way, puts out. They are one of the few HK studios still producing martial arts movies on the regular...although the Shaolin Vs. Evil Dead movies were such letdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
