Stephen Chow CJ7
Stephen Chow is brilliant. He manages to create worlds and humor that translates globally. But when I heard the concept behind his newest film, I was a little worried that he was going too "mainstream". ET/Pokemon? Uh...no.
I'm sure the "Stephen" in his name is an homage to Spielberg. Both are focussed on appealing to the global audience.
What I love about Chow's work, though, is he's not afraid to make characters that aren't very likable. There's a charm to the selfish guy that American creators are afraid to explore. Chow loves them (just like Jerry)!
All concerns I had for the film were dispelled upon seeing this full trailer. Now I can't wait.
