Times like this make me really glad I don't live in places like that. What a stupid, pointless thing to do.

That is...silly, yes.
To be fair, though, the scenes with Chow Yun-Fat were by far the most pointless in a movie filled with many pointless scenes.

I wish those scenes had been cut out of our prints, too. _________________Magic Mike wrote: zwackerm wrote: If John Wick 2 even makes 30 million I will eat 1,000 shoes. Same. Algren wrote: I don't think. I predict.

"The previous installment in the franchise, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" was banned by the Film Bureau because of scenes of cannibalism and ghosts."
Wait a second, so films can be banned for having ghosts in them?

Oh I've heard more bizarre reasons again given by the Chinese censors office.

That's retarded considering Chow Yun Fat is probably the biggest draw to this movie in China.

I don't know why since Chow-Yun Fat is huge in China.
And it's funny how this one is allowed to be released in China, when DMC wasn't. AWE is the darker of the two.
