Seth Rogen is still kind of tubby. Chou is awesome though.

Yeah, but he died, like a long time ago.

I remember rumors of him being alive and just hiding from the triad when I was a kid... supposedly he was to reappear in public in 1984... triads must've gotten to him earlier than that.

I saw the trailer for this, and it looked like a piece of crap. All overdone action with little or no story. Too bad.

Come on! The original series wasn't exactly Shakespeare. This looks like it will be precisely what it should be, though Kato should probably take a more supporting role. Shows up mainly to kick ass.

Am I the only person that hates comics, superheros, and their movies?

I wouldn't mind them so much if they weren't always poorly done.

They're all vehicles for product placement and McDonalds Happy Meal promotions.

My point is that the acting doesn't look very good, and with 30 percent of the trailer being slow-mo action (The Matrix beat that to death a decade ago), it looks like they're relying on the gee-whiz factor to woo in 17-year-olds who don't care about the lax script. The fact that the original may not have been so great really isn't a factor here: when you're spending this kind of bucks on not just producing but reinventing a franchise, why not actually make it good?

You might want to try non-superhero comics

Green Hornet was great as a radio show, I have a bunch of episodes of my iTunes that I listen to frequently. Seth Rogen does not look like how I pictured Britt Reid, at all. This will probably be an awful movie. I will probably still see it, at least when it comes out on DVD.

I used to have a couple of episodes on cassette and liked them a lot. I wonder where those went.
