Nothing in common but came across both recently.
I wonder how Korea will review the American remake of Sassy Girl; esp. cause it looks like it butchers the original:

(IMHO, the most hilarious scene of Knocked Up that was deleted) |

Another Korean movie, currently in post production, that Hollywood has tackled is A Tale of Two Sisters. I really didn't care for the Korean movie so am keen to see Hollywood's take. Oh, it's got Emily Browning in it so that's a bonus.

I thought my Sassy Girl's appeal to Asian audiences was she was not a demure woman but took charge and was very outspoken. It was shock appeal. Western women are rather used to that role. I'm not sure how they can translate that. |

The Knocked Up clip was great. I can see why they chopped it down. Goes a bit long. I suspect he was improving. I wish actually they used a bit more of him because he was quite fun to watch. I think there's a movie waiting based around the "angry asian man" character. It's like the angry asian guy in Lost is kind of fun to watch. |

My post in this thread was randomly deleted. Not that it really contributed much anyway, but it's kind of rude to play with someone's sanity like that. |

As was mine.
All I said was that this blonde girl is a lot better looking than prissy JJH. |

Boy I watched that American My Sassy Girl trailer and I was bored after the first 2 minutes. Didn't watch the rest. I think I saw this movie already, it was with Bruce Willis and he had a blind date and couldn't get her drunk. But he accidentally did. And hilarity ensued... the straight talkin' girl confronts the stuffy business world and gets her man a promotion...
Seen it. |

Please re-read the board rules. They clearly state that JJH must not be insulted in any way (eg "prissy"). As was put by Mr. A. Einstein, of Princeton NJ: "Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth." |

sorry about that guys..i thought i was going crazy b/c I was sure i posted to the general index as I was used to posting there; so i posted to general index again and then I realized the moderators were moving it to off-topic since this is about entertainment i guess.
mindmetoo - yeah I agree - i dont think sassy can work w/ western audience. yeah ken jeong clip was too long and people are trying not to smile/laugh, which made it funnier. I was disappointed they didn't include it in the deleted scenes in the DVD; you have to buy the special double disc edition for it.
i hope ken jeong is one to watch but pineapple express itself doesnt seem promising for some reason; we'll see... |
