    Thanks for posting. This movie shows a lot of promise even though from the trailer I would guess a better choice of name would be "The Kung Fu" kid.

    It all looks good enough, but something about the original 'cheeze' factor made the movie what it was.

    I guess any clever name that implies TCMAs rather than TJMAs. Otherwise we may end up with a MA world that is even more confused than it is now regarding the traditional arts.

    I mean I already have my hands full here with kung fu clueless cross trainers. The last thing I need is for one of these guys to say, "Chinese Karate is better and more functional than Chinese Kung fu....LOL

    I agree. I just hope that this updated version will have something special of its own and succeeds on its own merits.

    LOL... as if there isn't enough confusion in the martial arts world already... the movie looks good, but the title is waaay off base... red china propaganda: the wushu kid seems more appropriate.
