    I am still waiting for my DVDs. The US DVD set of Liao Chai hasn't been released yet. I promise I will do a review after I watch the story that Jimmy is in.

    I noticed that he was not healthy in that year, many pictures came out rather bad. Now, he looks cute and energetic, I am happy with his present look and hairstyle now.

    Did you watch "Wolf" or "Brother", in Chinese "Lang"?

    Jimmy and ambrose worked together again in "Wolf", after "Love Winner".
    Both of them were so hot in this movie. Ambrose played as a cop, and Jimmy played as an assassin.
    You are welcome. Jimmy looked a lot healthier in TLBB 03. He had a fuller face then. He seems to have lost a lot of weight after 2003. He was skin and bone in The Love Winner. I am happy that he looks good now.

    He does look cool in the pics of Wolf. I haven't watched it. I don't see it for sale at yesasia.com.

    Jimmy as a boxing coach

    Be patient girl, you will get it definitely, they have the problem with its stock.

    Here is some pix from www.jimmylin.cc
    When Jimmy attended F1 activities, he got the chance to see the pilot room.

    Thanks for the info!

    Hu Ke is very pretty I think. She's in Liao Zhai, the story with Huang Xiao Ming, is that right? Is He Mei Tian in Liao Zhai too? I actually have the Liao Zhai series but haven't had time to watch it yet cuz I'm currently watching TLBB. I watched the Shen Hu movie which is basically the shorter Jimmy part of Liao Zhai and it's very good! Jimmy did an excellent job as a retarded boy and then an evil guy. Li Bing Bing is very pretty in it too, though sometimes she looks older than Jimmy. The girl who plays Mu Wan Qing from TLBB is the evil snake woman in the LZ with Jimmy and I thought she did an excellent job. It's kool how she can act as the villain too. Overall, I really liked this series. Jimmy looks pretty good in it too! I also watched Xiao Cian, the one with Yang Mi and Hu Ge.. very good too!

    Wow, the boxing movie was an HK production? Yea, I didn't like it very much. You're right Relive, I think Jimmy looked younger than his little brother in this one so it was kinda off. I really want to watch Lang/Wolf but I can't find it here. I even asked the lady at the store. Is it a taiwan or hk production? I might ask her to special order it in. At this store they have all the Jimmy series... it's really kool cuz I get to buy them right away! I ordered Jimmy's album from yesasia tho.. hahaha, and I got it really quickly so I'm surprised there is such a wait for you guys. I totally understand the frustration cuz I'm currently waiting for my macbook to come in and it's been delayed TWICE! I got caught in the backtoschool rush... bahhh... ANYWAYS, hope you guys get the things you ordered soon! I'm moving soon for school and stuff but I'll be sure to come online and check back on the news.

    What's this thing Jimmy was part of with Jackie Chan? That old caucassian man looks familiar too eh.

    Actually, i don't believe Leila Tong is in Liu San Bian. She's in the Liao Zhai series. And yes, she's in the ghost story with Tae. I'm looking forward to watching their story, "Xiao Xie and Qiu Rong." Of course, along with Jimmy's though i'm not a big Li Bing Bing fan. I guess as long as it's not He Mei Tian. I wish Leila was in Liu San Bian...i find her to be very cute since she looks so innocent. I'd probably consider watching Liu San Bian if she was in it.

    Here are some pics of Leila Tong as Xiao Xie:





    Speaking of Tae, does anyone else think he can sometimes look like Jimmy? This has been brought up by other people before and obviously not everyone agrees. But I've seen some pics of Tae where his facial features can really make him look like Jimmy. That's probably why they were cast to play "twins" in the sequel to Legendary Siblings. I remember this one scene where they were disguised all in black and had to cover their faces. After they did that, if you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't know who was who. Their eyes were pretty similar. Anyway, i think Tae is cute in his own way but i prefer Jimmy's look. Too bad i don't have any pics at the moment to show the similarities.

    Jimmy looked to young for this role and his brother looked older than him.
    In the above pictures, is Terence Yin supposed to be playing Jimmy's younger boxer brother or something? Terence is the guy on the far right in both the first and last pictures. If so, then yeah, Terence definitely looks older than Jimmy even though in real life he's actually younger than Jimmy by a year. Jimmy's boyish look makes him look really young.

    I guess they're totally out then. I remember when Wolf (or Brother) first came out and it was on the main YesAsia page for a while as a new release.

    I got the same exact notification email as you. Right when i saw it, i was like okay so many days are we going to extend out to this time? I have this weird feeling that the ship out date will keep getting further and further extended as each email comes. I'm getting a bit bummed out myself. My scenerio might be seen as a little more aggravating because i preordered the Liao Zhai series together with Jimmy's F1ght cd/dvd. The cd/dvd version is actually now temporarily out of stock. YesAsia did let me know that they were holding a copy of that version for me since i had placed the order before it was out of stock. But now i'm wondering if i should just ask them to ship it out separately from Liao Zhai. I'm just hoping they really have been holding a copy for me. The things i go through for stinking free shipping. I sure do hope they hurry up and find a Liao Zhai supplier soon so they can ship out my stuff.

    Regarding Boxing Hero, is the female in the picture with Jimmy (the one saying "look at me") supposed to be his mother or dare i say love interest?

    Has anyone seen any of Jimmy's past movies; those like Grandpa's Love or Shaolin Popey or School Days? What's your favorite movie so far? I never got tired of Shaolin Popey. I made my students watch it and they liked it. They know Jimmy from LS2. It was aired in the Philippines not so long ago. Afterwhich they aired LS1. There were more followers of LS2 than 1. There's a fan club here for LS2 lovers!

    Those who have listened to the new cd, which song is the best?

    WHAT? HIS LOVE INTEREST! She looks old enough to be his mother, especially in that pic. I laughed till I burst into tears, Beanybeans. I am glad that I read this at home and not in the office. Or I would have to cover my mouth and pretend to be coughing. Everyone would think that I was choking to death.

    Someone please fill us in. Who is that woman. Please don't make her his love interest. PRETTY PLEASE!!! Sorry, no offense to her fans, whoever she is.

    I have seen Grandpa's Love. It was the first Jimmy movie that I saw after TLBB 03. It is so touching. The first 2 times I watched it I cried so hard. By the third time I could control myself. Jimmy was very good in it, and he was so young then. I have never seen Shaolin Popey or School Days. Are they good?

    My favorite song in his new cd is 'Accompany Me Home'. I like the beat.

    If I were you I would ask them send that last copy of Jimmy's cd/dvd. I am so mad at yesasia now. That's not the way to do business. They should have just sent the cd free of shipping charge to you ASAP considering that they have postponed the shipment thrice. I ordered my copy of Liao Zhai as a single item since it is enough for free shipping.

    I think I've watched almost all the Jimmy movies except Ang Yee and Lang. I found Grandpa's Love pretty good, though some parts I didn't understand. Like why did he decide to randomly go treat two girls to popcorn at the movie theatre? All in all, it's a good movie though. Shaolin Popeye was one of his more popular movies. It was pretty good too. Vivian Hsu was so young in that movie! Jimmy's character is kinda cute but kinda dorky/loserish at the same time. He does a pretty good job there. School Days is one of the movies I can watch again and again. Ruby looks super young in there... her teeth weren't fixed yet in that movie. It's a cute movie though. Typical storyline.. Jimmy looks really good in that movie. I like Takeshi's character in it too. I also really enjoyed Vampire Family. I don't really remember the entire storyline but I remember I thought it was pretty good. Athena Chu is in that one, I believe. I think Jimmy is a doctor in that movie? I remember him wearing glasses or something. What movies did you guys like?

    Yes, Hu Ke is in Liao Zhai, with Huang Xiao Ming.
    He Mei Tian is not in Liao Zhai.
    Oh yes, Jimmy did a great job there, he could convince the two different characters, I am so proud of him.

    Jiang Xin did her great job again in Liao Zhai, she was really evil as the snake demon. She is absolutely versatile. Again, Jiang Xin and Jimmy got the intimate scenes together

    Wolf or Lang is a Taiwan production.

    Jimmy attended F1 event, while Jackie Chan came to see the event.

    Tae really resembled Jimmy when he just started out in Taiwan.
    That's why Jimmy and Tae were in The Legendary Siblings II.

    Here is Tae's comment

    T: There are really a lot of people who feel I look like Jimmy, but it does not make me unhappy, because Jimmy looks very beautiful, and he is popular in Thailand too. When I was in Taiwan, often there were people who would run up and say,"Jimmy please sign your autograph"."But I am not him", I would tell them, "I am Tae." Now, I look more and more different from him; people would recognise me, I am the Thai- Tae.

    Sorry to reveal the fact that she paired up with Jimmy's character

    She worked in a pub where Dragon (Jimmy) and his uncle asked for the information of his mother and brother.

    There were the scenes where she was nearly violated, and Jimmy saved her. I found it's funny.
