well bugger that…looks like shaolin soccer is finally being released in america. after being delayed and put off for how long? a new trailer was released last week, and supposedly the movie will be out on april 2nd. id almost forgotten about shaolin soccer…i just fig’d miramax fucked it up big and scrapped it like so many other movies they planned to distribute, then tossed in the poop shoot. i cant even really tell whether theyre releasing the dubbed or cantonese version, as there is absolutely no movie dialogue in the new trailer. when last reported, it was said that miramax did intend to release the original cantonese version…but miramax is also highly stupid, so who knows. anyhoo, i havent really seen or heard much about the movie, so given the release date is next week, you have to applaud the marketing prowess of miramax too. go you. anyhoo, if anyones still interested, check out the new trailer. and maybe even consider seeing the movie in the theaters. dont let miramax’s stupidity put a halt to more asian movies making their way over to america…
