Yeah my family is Chinese but I was born here. I've come to appreciate the human values in America after my father's description of the flawed Chinese government.

What the hell, poor John Woo. I hope the movie turns out well, it sounds pretty damn sweet but the poor guy is definitely having a tough time.

it sucks worse to be involved in the film industry in other places such as India where disease and famine are rampant and you have to shoot movies on the street while knee deep in cow manure.

Yeah, sounds to me the Chinese government is pretty much like any major studio releasing their next blockbuster.
