WILSON YIP GOES BACK TO HONG KONG

Wilson Yip's new movie now has a title - CITY WITHOUT MERCY (PO JUN) - and a location: Hong Kong.

Originally slated to start shooting any day now in Macau, the production has returned to the good old HKSAR because they couldn't find enough extras. With 8 billion new casinos going up in Macau everyone is busy and no one has time to be an extra. Yip was going to import 250 extras to Macau from HK and China before someone said, "Why don't we just shoot in Hong Kong?" Which was very sensible, and it turns out to be exactly what they did.

(Thanks to the sharp-eyed reader who sent this in)
