Kung Fu Grip!

So "The Forbidden Kingdom" opens today, starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li in their first cooperative film effort.

The adverts make a big deal out of a battle between the two of them, but given that this is a story about a 13-year-old American boy who goes back in time to ancient China to learn kung fu, I'm expecting that the anticipated "fight" will be three seconds of disappointment.

That's okay. The trailers have plenty of ass-kicking stuff in it that makes me want to pony up some cash and check it out.

Tonight's a new Dr. Who and BSG, though. And I hate opening night at pretty much any movie.

Hmm... maybe over the weekend. I'm taking a nice, long weekend. I can catch a matinee or evening performance.

WOH-PAH! Ninja-agile!
