'The Warrior's Way' trailer: East meet West

From what I can tell, The Warrior’s Way is not based on a video game, but it sure looks like it: Operatic violence, lushly surreal panoramas, vivid Wild West characters who resemble children’s action figures. Oh yeah, it also features cowboys vs. ninjas. (The Indians, it appears, are wisely going to sit this rumble out.) Oddly enough, the appearance of Geoffrey Rush seemed more foreign to me than the ninja hordes.

What do you make of this clash of movie-making styles and cultures? Did Rush seem oddly placed to you, too?

    “Ninjas. Damn.”

    I like Rush, and I actually think he fits right in. Apparently, Gary Oldman was unavailable for the “Respected Actor Who Chews the Scenery, Classes the Joint Up, and Ends up Being the Best Thing in a Junky Movie” slot.

    When I saw this trailer before Let Me In, I thought that the name was going to be Cowboys & Ninjas. Whichever, it looks like mindless fun. It looks like it was made on a blue screen set like Sin City, 300, and The Spirit.

    Well now, seems like this is has the making of a real toilet treat. How boat this why not make a video game about the greatest presidenial bowel movements then make a movie of it. Now that would really be exciting.

      That film has already been made. You can see it when you look in a mirror.
