    You may want to correct your opening sentence to state that "The Green Hornet" is officially one of YOUR most anticipated movies of 2010. I doubt very seriously very many people are waiting for this with baited breath.

    Oh, Vic. What other movies are you anticipating for 2010?

    Beverly Hills Cop IV? Boondock Saints: Never Going to be Made?

    On second thought, I hear there's a remake of Captain Blood coming scheduled for then, and if they can get Errol Flynn's body reanimated for it, that would. Be. Awesome.

    i have to say this. im a avid film watcher from hk, and judging by how i see many of
    chows original films that have never been released in the u.s, i am both happy and
    shocked when i found out that chow will be directing the green hornet.

    chow's humor relies on slapstick humor, the kind of humor that doesnt really appeal to
    u.s audiences, and combine that with the fact that chow cant really speak english and has
    never done a large u.s film might result in a rather good movie for hk film watchers, but
    end up confusing and rather boring since they dont understand the kind of humor we
    enjoy

    and for everyone whos ever watched kung fu hustle or shaolin soccer, you might want to
    watch some of chows original films (if you can ever find them) and see the large
    difference in comedic talent that he has compared to Sandler and Ferrell

    Yeah! Go Boondock Saints! I just saw it for the first time last Saturday! Superb flick! And I'm
    Irish and have lived outside Boston so how I never saw this is astounding.

    Evan Goldberg - Funny
    Evan Goldberg making Green Hornet - What?
    Seth Rogen - Funny, overexposed
    Seth Rogen making Green Hornet - WTF?
    Stephen Chow - Awesome
    Stephen Chow making Green Hornet - HELL YES!
    Stephen Chow, Evan Goldberg, and Seth Rogen making Green Hornet - What?

    I have serious reservations about this film, but adding Chow to the mix can only make it better. I thought that Kung Fu Hustle was virtually perfect story telling. I was honestly a little bit in awe after watching it and that rarely happens to me. (I hate everything, remember?)

    I loved Chow's Shoalin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle so this is really great news!

    We're gonna have to see the first shot of the film at least then we'll judge it. I don't Seth Rogen playing the handsome actor before him who made the Green Hornet as one of the the most viewd TV Shows back in the day. I still Think Stephen Chow can make it happen.
