i get a kick out of watching asian movies... (movies, shows... what the heck, just as long as it's asian, i love it already).

Hero has just been shown in the US and korean movies are gaining popularity outside Asia, Asian cinema is getting the respect of not only asians but of the americans, or the brits as well. good for them.

In lieu of Hero, the director of the said movie has another one yet to be shown here (it's shown in Korea last Sept 10 already and to be shown in the US on December). It not only stars famous actors and actresses, it boasts of good fight scenes and the cinematography. (heard though that the plot's not good enough).

Title: House of Flying Daggers
Director: Zhang Yimou
Cast: Takeshi Kaneshiro (crush-worthy. he's of japanese and taiwanese parents), Zhang Ziyi (who doesn't know her??), Andy Lau (HK actor and asian superstar).

Enjoy these 2 trailers.

am officially excited.
