I know what you're thinking: When the hell are we finally going to get a Chinese Kung Fu Steampunk movie?
Soon, my children, soon.
Tai Chi 0 by director Stephen Fung is currently in post production. That's a promo clip for it up above. I think I'm going to enjoy this one a lot.
You can read about it here.
And meanwhile, elsewhere in the future . . .
Google is apparently Beta-testing a lowest-possible-imagination version of Bruce Sterling's old cyberpunk data spex. If you wind up with a pair, be sure to read every word of whatever agreement they require you to sign. I'm betting a lot more of your experience has potential commercial value than you realized.

Well if you're desperate to see a kung fu Steampunk film right now while convalescing, you can see the recent detective Dee film; however I haven't seen it myself, so I can't vouch for it's steampunk credentials...

I thought the Judge Dee movie was a hoot. Which surprised me, given how unfaithful to the Judge Dee books it was. But steampunk? Well... kinda-sorta, maybe.
ReplyDeleteYeah, read the contract. I'm suspicious of the part that says Google reserves the right to edit everything you look at.
ReplyDeleteNever wear the spex when you're working on a story!
