Trailer With English Subs

More info: wikipedia entry

Just saw "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" at the cinema today. It's meant to be a more fantastical re-imaginationed sequel to the classic "New Dragon Gate Inn" (新龙门客栈) (1992), which was more slapstick wuxia. If you don't watch a lot of kungfu flicks, the 1992 film had an excellent femslashy scene with the following clip (which has French subs) between the characters played by Brigitte Lin and Maggie Cheung:



Anyway, about the movie; all in all, if you are prepared to suspend your disbelief at some of the scenes, and ignore the ultra cheesy romance, it was actually a pretty fun movie. :P Again, I might be reading too much femslash these days, but from this new movie, it looks like Lin Yanqiu/Su Huirong is a definite femslash pairing, though I wouldn't mind if I saw a few fanfics involving the Tartar tribal princess (does anyone remember her character name?).

Did an action movie marathon yesterday with Fast & Furious 5, Hanna, and Source Code (in that order). These were three pretty solid and engaging movies, although if I had to choose one to recommend, I'd probably recommend Hanna. It was beautifully shot, showcased great acting all around, and the plot had just enough mystery to keep me going. :) Saoirse Ronan is awesome! The kiss in the tent was also quite interesting...for any femslashers out there... :D
