    As far as I know it Shaw Brothers was co-producing Blade Runner, Golden Harvest had nothing to do with that movie.

    I just hope that they bring back the good old days and move forward and get back to their former glory The trend of all these non martial artist singers taking lead martial art roles has been doing my head in and i hope this puts some decent martial artists to the industry they rightfully belong and not some pretenders who cash in further on their pop careers!!! hope we won't be waiting in vain!!

    If Golden Harvest is serious what they need to do is bring back Jackie Chan,Sammo Hung,and Yuen Woo Ping as directors,and fight coreographers.

    There is no way they can fail. Demand, by far, outweighs production. That's why we're seeing such a strong resurgence of these films and production companies. As long as they keep cracking down on piracy, and continue to keep costs low, its a win win.

    echo-ing another post the only way this turns out well is IF real talent is brought in. That's real marial artists, quality writers for the bigger movies( although true hardcore action can succeed without the strongest stories), top choregrophers, and directors, DoP's and editors that know how to make the action look good and tell a story.

    Pop stars need to be banished back to music, martial artists need to be kings again...maybe some acting lessons wouldn't go amiss but I can stand sloppy acting if the action is top notch, afterall amazing fight sequences, awe inspiring stunts and breath taking action is why I love martial arts action movies.
