DRAGON TIGER GATE IS YUMMY LIKE CANDY

DRAGON TIGER GATE looks like super-sharp wire-fu in a world built of Jolly Ranchers

The DRAGON TIGER GATE website has been updated and while navigating it is brain-crampingly hard for English-only speakers, there's good stuff in there for those willing to dig.

If you click on the first bottom button on the far left you'll get a huge number of stills from the movie.

If you click on the second bottom button from the left you'll get a new trailer with lots of smoking hot footage. The movie looks like super-sharp wire-fu in a world built of Jolly Ranchers and without  a lightbulb budget.

It's listed as having a release date of 7/28/06 and I can't hardly keep my shirt on.

What I am consistently impressed with is Donnie Yen's ability to strike the perfect buttocks to pecs curve ratio in every single promo shot.

Holy cow.

Was Shawn Yue in that film -- you know, that film with the Twins, and Anthony Wong has that one scene with his kid on the beach that made me tear up, but otherwise nothing much happens because they're in this sleepy small town? JUST ONE LOOK. Yes, it took typing that entire paragraph for me to remember the title.

Call it what you want, but don't slander this movie as being "wire-fu." Donnie Yen stated in the interviews that the choreography in this movie was done WITHOUT wires.

"Donnie Yen stated in the interviews that the choreography in this movie was done WITHOUT wires.
"?

Have you watched any of the making of videos out there for Dragon Tiger Gate?, there is extensive use of wires. And just a tip, any time someone is able to pedal their feet during a long jump...they are on a wire.
