*ignores review and goes AWWWWW at the Cao Cao icon*

If he's reminding one of Andy Lau this means he'd remind one of Sun Ce and then things with Chang Chen (a.k.a. Sun Quan) would be very incestuous. :P

2/10 is v good! *applauds* >D

Cao Cao needs your support. Wei is lagging behind in all popularity polls. Call 0800-LUV-CAOCAO to vote for Wei NOW!

Seriously, the resemblance is scary. For about five minutes I entertained the horrific thought that Takeshi was Andy's son. Then I thought no, Andy would be a father at the age of 12. Not impossible but so very wrong >.<

2/10 - 1 point for EEEEEE/Anime Eyes and 1 point for the comedy!

For that icon alone I'd vote five times. *dials*

I wonder who's the mum if he fathered Takeshi at 12. O______o;; That is so tabloid news. LMAO.

I was going to say Andox, but that would be too disturbing.

LMAO The CaoCao icon is cute!

Did the second chief pleasure - The Snake - turn up in this movie too? XD

NO *cries* but there was a Villainous Woman who shags every gangster in Shanghai and she looks quite similar to the woman with the snake.

There is a horse though, as good as No85 - I'm thinking it's a Shaw Bros joke as Takeshi's character is called 'Ma'. It is a really loyal horse and saves him from every gangster in Shanghai (clearly it is the ancestor of the pony in Red Cliff) - and then the gangsters slice its legs off. Ewwwwww.

Not as good as the snake but still LOL-worthy for Takeshi crying on the road "My horse! So loyal and noble! Don't dieeeeeee!"

Oh the Villainous Woman sounds like an interesting character XD

I am sure Takeshi's horse is very loyal as he is called "馬永貞" in the movie - which means 'Horse (is) forever loyal' PMSL No wonder poor Takeshi cries his heart out!

Villainous Woman gets attacked but she survives gang-rape with only a cut on her head (o_O) and she weeps bitterly as she realises the error of her ways! It's so morally instructive!

Takeshi/馬永貞 OTP! Well, if SQ is going to get off with a were-tiger then why not...

Real heroes slay dragons and rescue fair maidens!

Give him the Tale of Genji. The hero cries all the way through. In fact I'm sure Genji's tears are the source of the Kamo River.
