house of flying daggers - go see this movie!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Saw it yesterday, and it's brilliant!

IMDB link

It's a Chinese movie, with lots of good martial arts, nice costumes, beautiful characters, and a reasonably good plot for a martial arts film. Drama, love, fighting, scenery, intrigue, everything!

It's out now, so go see it! :)

I'm gonna buy it on DVD :)
Seems like a very beautiful movie - and I've heard alot about it.
Can't believe I'm still here.

Hmm..I might see it. But I still haven't seen Hero, I'll probably concentrate on that one first.

My girl likes this movie but she has a stronger stomach than I do, is there a lot of blood in the movie? *Hates blood*

If I remember correctly Hero didnt contain any blood (I dont remember any at least).
So I think House of flying boogers is quite free from blood.

Hardly any blood, just in one scene and then it's quite artfully done
