Red Cliff review was a good read. I think it’s been since Lust, Caution that a film was worth that type of quality review. That’s sad. And neither are really Hong Kong films.

But any “goodness” from watching Red Cliff got quickly overshadowed by the brilliance of The Dark Knight. Kozo, you should be able to get some hits if you slam The Dark Knight and say Batman & Robin was better.

That Pokey the Penguin is quality. Thanks for sharing, Gabriel!

V, I would love to bring back April Fool’s jokes, but time always gets to me. Even worse, April is now right there with the HKIFF and possibly Udine Far East Film (if I go back), so I’m not sure how I can create an April Fool’s Edition unless I plan it in December or January. As I’m fond of saying, time is a luxury and I’m not a rich man.

Eliza, thanks for the kind words, as always. Truthfully, I needn’t have raced to write a Red Cliff review, since it’s already been covered all over the web. Hell, Twitch has THREE reviews of the film already.

Frankly, it’s the existence of high-profile sites and blogs like that which make me consider hanging it up, or at least not reviewing the bigger titles. Red Cliff or Johnnie To don’t need coverage anymore, since they’ve all but invaded mainstream geek culture.

However, we could be the first site to review La Lingerie.

The ‘Kozo, the pervert’ page is quite funny. Please bring back the April Fool jokes!
