Member Linn1 Posted October 21, 2006 Member Share Posted October 21, 2006 that's the one with the baby I think. I've just seen the poster, and heard little bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ToothbrushFu Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Check out this article on twitch from a while back, it links to scans of the flyer for the film. Haven't seen anything about it since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WongFury Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 from what i know is about some autistic little girl beating up thugs for her mother or something, does anyone know when this film is getting released? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ToothbrushFu Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 This is the upcoming Prachya Pinkaew movie. The last I read it was supposed to be getting a Thai cinema release in July, so I guess any DVD will be a few months after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Dragon Ma Posted January 4, 2008 Member Share Posted January 4, 2008 I came across the trailer for Prachya Pankaew's latest film, the fights look pretty good, the film is very reminiscent of Danny the Dog though. Prachya has said he will making another female action vehicle after this one, should be interesting. http:///video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1053379045929040117 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted January 4, 2008 Member Share Posted January 4, 2008 Looks good. It looks like there is some wirework, but it didn't bug me. I just hope there isn't too many Bruce Lee impersinations. That was a bit odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member The Amazing Psycho Per Posted January 4, 2008 Member Share Posted January 4, 2008 Ah come on, the Bruce nod was funny... I know there are a lot of detractors to the recent martial arts movies but I love them. They really remind me of the old glorious days Hong Kong action cinema, like some sort of hybrid of the 80s and 90s. I'm looking forward to this one. Panna is the man and his choreography is a breath of fresh air in a genre that has stalled in recent years. The only one right now who can rival his originality is Donny Yen, but I believe recent Thai films are much more satisfying, at least in terms of quantity.

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted January 4, 2008 Member Share Posted January 4, 2008 Ah come on, the Bruce nod was funny... I agree, I just don't want to see it the whole movie. It seems like it would maybe ruin what looks like a dark film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Yakuza954 Posted January 4, 2008 Member Share Posted January 4, 2008 Heh, that was better than I thought it was going to be. I'll try to keep my expectations normal though as Dynamite Warrior had a pretty good trailer and still turned out pretty crappy. Here's hoping this is the one to break the string of bad Thai action movies that've come out lately. A few comments: I liked the whole "she learned kung fu by watching kung fu movies" angle. Cheesy but cool. I also liked the clothes she was wearing the whole time she was fighting. It was just regular female clothing, no special uniform or anything. It reminds me of the clothes Yukari Oshima and Moon Lee used to wear in some of their movies, like here- http://youtube.com/watch?v=b9_9VeXpcoE I also agree with Morgoth that if she does Bruce mannerisms the whole movie its going to ruin it. Hopefully its just a little here and there done in jest like the way Sammo did it in Skinny Tiger Fatty Dragon and Enter the Fat Dragon. Any more would get old fast.

Member theportlykicker Posted January 5, 2008 Member Share Posted January 5, 2008 Wow! She looks amazing, and much better than Yukari Oshima could ever hope to be. Hopefully, the film will be good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member greenfan Posted January 5, 2008 Member Share Posted January 5, 2008 Woooooaaahhhhhh damn!!! That film looks so dope that my underpants have suddenly become very tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yi-Long Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Looks interesting, at least. Although a litlle bit low-budget at times, although that could be because of the poor video-quality. Not overly impressed with her MA skills yet though, but the premise sounds cool so I'll definately give it a chance. ...and is it me (or the poor videoquality), or does she look a little bit simular to a modern-day Nora Miao!?

Yeah you are right. at the 1:52 mark I thought maybe there was a wire used, but I can't tell for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Ivan Gorchev Posted January 5, 2008 Member Share Posted January 5, 2008 It looks like they use everything in the book,wire 1:52,2:08,undercranking 1:46 Probably cgi and she is easy to double(2:12)with that hairstyle. BUT I STILL LIKE IT!She is good and yes she looks a little bit like Nora Miao. But for me every asian looks the same LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member froffeecoffee Posted January 7, 2008 Member Share Posted January 7, 2008 Count me as thouroughly impressed. The trailer looks fierce. I expect the same from this as Ong Bak and Tom Yum Goong plotwise; weak plot, tons of fantastic action. Also I read that Prachya Pinkaew and Tony Jaa had a falling out and that's why there will be no Sword film that was announced awhile back. Too bad.

Member The Running Man Posted January 7, 2008 Member Share Posted January 7, 2008 Although the action does look quite impressive, this movie, from the little I know about it, has about the dumbest premise I have heard in a long time. I mean, I woldn't expect anything decent from the guy who directed On Bak and Tom Yum Goong (since he is pretty much a hack), but really: A girl, who like chocolate a lot, learns to fight by watching Bruce Lee movies and then goes to single handily take on the Japanese Yakuza for revenge. I want to see the film just to see if they are seriously going to try to pull a story like that off in a totally serious fashion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member AlbertV Posted January 10, 2008 Member Share Posted January 10, 2008 I saw the trailer and I couldn't believe what I saw. She is freaking awesome!!! I like her fight against the guy who does the pommel horse moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
