Jesus Christ this was on Netflix literally yesterday. *sigh* Fucking streaming services. Please hold. Technical issues or whatever.

Ugh, I have to watch an English dub now.

Ip Man 2 (2010)

Anyway, it's on Tubi, so bonus weird ads.

Oh no, the dubbed voice for Donnie Yen is all wrong :(

Ip Man 2 (2010)

Ip Man 2 is a lot like Rocky IV but not as fun. Like Balboa’s fourth adventure, it features a cartoonish antagonist and the nationalism is basically a main character. This film also features expertly choreographed martial arts sequences and a climax that - while predictable - does deliver what audiences want to see. It’s a major step down from the first but if you want action and don’t want to think, it’ll satisfy.

Now living in Hong Kong with his family, Wing Chun master Ip Man (Donnie Yen) seeks to open a school to teach his unique martial arts style. Unfortunately, the competition in the big city is fierce. Before Ip Man can accept students, he must prove himself to the other master, notably Hung Chun-nam (Sammo Hung). Rivalries are set aside after British boxer Taylor "The Twister" Miller (Darren Shahlavi) challenges Hong Kong's champion to prove whose technique is the best.

Like Ip Man, this sequel can be split into two halves. The first has Ip Man humbly learning the ways of this big city and gathering pupils. Even though you know no one can defeat Ip Man, the film maintains tension by introducing Wong Leung (Huang Xiaoming). Young and arrogant, you just know he’s going to get his master in trouble. When he does, things get crazy. We’ve seen Ip Man battle multiple opponents before but never as many as he does here. What makes it more complex is that while he’s also trying to avoid getting hurt/killed, he has to pull his punches to prevent himself from making an enemy of these students' master.

It would be a shame not to discuss the choreography on display. There are some impressive - and extended - sequences that put most of what we see in North America to shame. The best is the fight in which Ip Man must prove himself against Hung Chun-nam, another high-stakes battle in a unique arena that’ll have you screaming “ohhhh!” more than once.

Then, we get to the second half and that sweet energy drink of action might as well turn to mop water. I’m not going to say that the British occupying China in the 1950s weren’t racist but in this movie, they’re the most racist you could be. You wind up hating “The Twister” more than you did the war criminals in the previous film, which I suppose might be a good thing - a way to keep upping the ante so to speak - but this is the second movie in a row when “foreign devils” come in and start stomping on China. Technically, the opponents Ip Man is up against - all of which are corrupt and dishonest - are British, not American but with the similarities this film has to Rocky IV, you can’t help but wonder if writer Edmong Wong isn't trying to right some wrong. I’m willing to say it might be just me but it's not the only off-putting aspect of Ip Man 2. Ip Man’s wife, Cheung Wing-sing (Lynn Hung), for example. She’s given nothing to do except be a pregnant lady who worries.

The deeper into the film we get, the worse it becomes. At one point, Twister insults Chinese martial arts by comparing them to dancing, boasting that British boxing is superior in every way, etc. Audiences don’t buy it for a second. Styles like Hung Ga or Wing Chun allow you to use your legs so you want to see him cut down to size (the blatant racism also makes him plenty hateable). When Hung Chun-nam enters the arena, things go bad. How could they not? The man’s old and asthmatic, he’s going against an opponent who towers over him and is in a completely different weight class. After exchanging blows, it’s clear Chun-nam needs to throw in the towel, but he doesn’t. He has to stand up for the Martial Arts, whose feelings have been hurt by this one guy. Eventually, Chun-nam dies. It’s tragic but no one questions his decision despite the seven children who will now have to grow up without a father and the widow he leaves behind. Caring about yourself or your family? That’s less important than caring about what some stranger thinks. Even Ip Man’s family thinks so, which is why our hero misses the birth of his second child to compete in the rematch. It isn’t totally selfish, however. Once Ip Man wins, his glorious technique and humble victory speech cure the brain damage Chow Ching-chuen (Simon Yam) suffered!

There’s a lot to love in the first half of Ip Man 2. Scrutinize the latter half at all and the film becomes problematic for multiple reasons. What is it with this series and needing to remind us of Ip Man’s connection to Bruce Lee? I’d rather just watch Rocky IV again. At least that movie is so goofy you never wind up with the wrong kind of expectations. (Original Cantonese with English subtitles, March 26, 2021)

i also really loved that when beelzebub first mentioned liking the song in the pub that we actually couldn’t hear it because we were remembering the moment from gabriel’s point of view and he himself didn’t hear the song until beelzebub pointed it out to him. really impactful moment imo. he couldn’t distinguish art from sound until they shared it with him and so the audience wasn’t clued in either

#i love how this series is written so Fucking Much #gabriel #beelzebub #good omens #good omens 2 #really impactful moment of them introducing something so profound as music into gabriel’s life #man #i would have fallen in love with them too #unless ofc my tv fucked ip and actually just didn’t play the song in the background while they were talking

Hate to doom post, but I really don't think there's gonna be a 3rd season of Good Omens.

Not being renewed immediately is a very bad sign. Righteous Gemstones was renewed immediately; Succession was offered a 5th season, but Jesse Armstrong most likely declined considering he didn't want a 5th season.

From dumping off a whole season in one day, the writer's strike and (awful lol) studios prioritizing AI and reality shows, streaming generally dying, and the industry floundering, it's never good for very expensive shows that take a long time, e.g. fantasy, sci fi, etc. Even superhero shows are suffering and are going the way of westerns.

Basically I'm still dealing with trauma from Pushing Daisies being cancelled mid-season and I've been fighting those demons since I was 12. Disillusionment runs my life smdh

#and fucking dark crystal WAS RENEWED AND THEY BACKTRACKED #and studios are selfish with properties #in the past if you got cancelled you could try to go to a new studio #but now studios keep certain assets as part of IP #so they would have to make changes possibly like the set and music or even the actors #i'm super sad about it since while a book would be dank it just would noooooot be the same #idk it's depressing me more than the ending lol #being a fan of fantasy and sci fi is just hell man #good omens #good omens speculation #i am cry #good omens 2 #good omens 3 #good omens meta #aziraphale #crowley #michael sheen #david tennant #not tagging [redacted] author because he's on here and i'm not tryna make anyone sad i promise #pushing daisies #i didn't watch it regularly at the time and feel personally responsible for it dying smdh #dark crystal #i mean at least dark crystal had a NOT BUMMER REAL ENDING #my mom bemoans masters of sex being cancelled mid season but i didn't watch nor care about it so eh #succession #the righteous gemstones #and yes word choice of 'fighting my demons' was on purpose lmaoooo #reminder pushing daisies came out right before the writer's strike in 2007 #which killed a lot of shows #especially high concept

who had any idea rogue one and andor would be the only ones left standing after the Disney nuclear apocalypse of star wars

#star wars #and its all bc the same dude did it who doesnt give a fuck about disney or star wars #i really enjoyed andor a lot & rogue one #i wish they wouldve made heir to the empire in the style of andor w a recast han luke leia #thats all they had to do #instead they destroyed the whole IP #its bafflibg #the sequels destroyed the legacy characters and all they sought to fight for and build..... how did you do that #it failed finn rey rose and poe as diverse characters #the Bo Karendalorian failed the only decent project with atmosphere they had which followed a deeply devout man and his son on their holy #quest which gave them both deep spiritual ties #boba fett and obi wan had some high points but not enough to excuse the whole execution #just.... how #tales of the jedi and tbb are like Nick Jr tv which is fine for little kids but isnt even TOUCHING the clone wars level which was legit #a masterpiece from Lucas #just #sheesh #honestly this fandom really deserved better than the slow decay and destruction of an institution #at least we have Andor season 2 before its p much lights out for Star Wars #im grateful for that #and gilroys work

Just had such a freeing epiphany. Now I can go to sleep and be excited about drawing naked people before breakfast tomorrow.

#and use the rest of the day after breakfast with family to sign up for stuff work on my application read for my term paper ...#perhaps I shall even take notes for IP so that maybe I can rewrite on the train since I'll be on it for a long ass time next week #it is a pity I never take my laptop on vacay with me but I really won't need it so that time on the train will be for reading #man remember 2 years ago when I went on vacay and wasn't stressed out to hell and back ... loved that bitch #beablabbers
