 | 07:23 pm - I think I don't need to buy a crappy pirate of Red Cliff 2
Magnolia just announced they've acquired the acquisition rights to the Red Cliff movies and Warlords. This pleases me immensely, as they've done right by their imports pretty well as far as I can recall. Red Cliff was released as a pair of films, and John Woo's made no attempt to hide the intent to edit them down into a single film for US theatrical release. This is still the plan (this fall, I think?), but Magnolia being what it is, there will be an accompanying release of the individual movies on DVD. Yay!
Warlords is pretty kick-ass, too.
Sorry for no link, but KFCcinema doesn't have individual post links.
I heart Mark Cuban sometimes.

Currently watching the copy of Warlords I picked up in SF.
A: It is obviously a pirate. This makes me sad.
B: The subtitles on this may be the worst I've ever seen. Jet Li just gave a huge dramatic speech about, um, something, that totally didn't make sense on the first time through. And I say this as a fluent speaker of badly translated HK English!
