I'm digging those posters for the Jiang Wen flick.

I think I'm officially a bit sick of Donnie but Shu Qi in a period piece -- again! -- does make me a tiny bit interested.

Me too, I'm sooo tired of covering Donnie Yen but I feel obligated. Wish he'd take a break from filmmaking. Or at least take different a role.
