    will it be released in the US (in the theater)? because i would love to see this on the big screen and hopefully it will not flop....it seems much more like a wuxia movie than anything that has been released much more recently.

    This and Wuji are the only 2 asian movies i've cared about. Everything else is filled with too much pop stars.

    official Trailer Looks to me like BLADE without the ferocity but with silly traces of wire throughout. In other words, my expectations are low. after Legend of Zu & that Vampire movie, I am confident that Tsui Hark has lost it.
    忽见柳荫下两个小孩子在哀哀痛哭,瞧模样正是武敦儒、武修文兄弟。郭芙大声叫道:「喂,你们在干甚麽?」武 修文回头见是郭芙,哭道:「我们在哭,你不见麽?」
