Making his Hollywood début in the Wachowskis' 2008 pop art spectacular, Speed Racer, Korean superstar Rain re-teams with the Dudes de la Matrix - this time with Jimmy McTeigue in the director's chair, and the Wachowskis relegating themselves to blocking the action scenes - in this year's Thanksgiving blood fest, Ninja Assassin: due out November 25th in the U.S. and November 27th in the U.K.
I'm sorry. I can't help it. But I'm actually more pumped for this than I am for Avatar. Yes, I know Avatar will be yet another amazing Jim Cameron film...but this film has ninjas! And lots and lots of blood!
I'm sure the script will be thinner than the Olsen twins, but that doesn't change the fact that this looks like absolutely great, mindless, B-movie entertainment. I doubt it'll score above three stars on this blog, but that won't stop it from being a fun time at the movies.
If you haven't already done so (or even if you have), I suggest you click the vid below and bask in the bloody brilliance of Ninja Assassin:
Here here. Although, I think I'm looking forward to Avatar more :P

Yes, it's true. Terrible news.
