Sorry! Here I am...not much news but word on the street is that Myth is heading for a September release. No word yet if it's an Asian or US release time frame tho. It may well be US as it was mentioned in an article about Chan selling his home in Beverly Hills (it was a US news site)

I really hope it's a US release, we need this from him. Is it almost positive that NPS wont be released in America?

Well there have been rumors that Miramax bought it, which I hope are not true. If Paramount buys it, that would be MUCH better as they are not as likely to changethe film as drasticaly as the edit happy idiots at Mira-axe

(thank god you told me about that site LClem, if it wasen't for you and that site, I probably wouldn't have got my NPS and Police Story trilogy DVD's)

I'm thinking of getting:

Crime Story (Never seen it)
Drunken Master (Saw it)
Accidental Spy (Never saw it)
Vampire Effect I & II (Never saw it)
and a movie called Project A (don't know much about it)

I wonder what JC's upcoming projects are.

He's I think basically finished with the Myth, so I wonder what he'll do next.

Crime story is VERY good (another drama which got him a Golden Horse award for his acting) and it's also the only time you'll ever see him get kissed by another man. (Don't panic, it was just Ken Low as a baddie, forcing one on him to intimidate his character . And Ken Low's "kiss" looks more like he's gonna swallow his head..think grouper kissing a minnow LOL) Ken Low is a long time bodyguard/ stunt team member as well as one of JC's best buddies. I doubt Jackie would have done the scene with any other actor. (His pic is below as we featured him in Jade Screen. I wrote a bio on him as well for the issue.)

Accidental spy is a great one so long as it is the HK version not the US butcher job. It features Jackie fighting in a marketplace while totally nude while trying to keep covered with various things he finds in the shops along the way. Vampire Effect 1 & 2 are only Cameos. if you must get one of them, get 2. It's not a sequel anyway and it features an incredible fight with weapons (and a lot of CGI) against the wonderful Donnie Yen. The film also features choreography by Corey Yuen (Jackie's opera brother and long time Jet Li choreographer. Project A is a MUST HAVE. It features Jackie with Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao. Also it's the first time Jackie ever did major stunts. The clock tower is a classic. If you like that one go get Project A 2 as well.

Yeah he's just finishing up some reshoots and add ons to Myth now...been pretty mum about what his next one is. When I know, you'll know

And I hope you enjoy the Mags!

Nic Tse has been working on a film (the title escapes me, sorry) and recently released another album. Jaycee Chan is working on a film called "Precocious" (Actually the literal translation for the film's title is "Early Maturation" LOL) and for the film he has finally cut his hair! He looks a lot better.

LClem said:

The Nic Tse Film is called Journey West. cast includes Patrick Tam Yiu Man, Nicholas Tse Ting Fung, Isabella Leung Lok Si, Fan Bingbing, Charlene Choi Cheuk Yin, Chen Bo-Lin (Chan Pak Lam), Boy'z and new comer Dai Jiaoqian.

As for Jaycee's film:
It's said to be a romantic light drama mixed with humor.
"The film will have a touch of comedy, but is mostly a story of a budding romance between a pauper played by Jaycee and a young woman from a wealthy family played by Fiona Sit and their parents in the movie having to come to terms with the reality of their children growing up into adulthood."

The Unknown Jedi said:

So after that is Jaycee gonna do any action/drama flicks? Also do you know if America will get a release of Nicholas Tse's The Promise?

The Unknown Jedi said:

That sounds ok.

Hey do you know any other asian movies coming to American theaters? They're one of my type of movies.
