Razorback, at Apex, by Ursula Vernon.

Trailer (with subtitles) for Stephen Chow's new movie 《美人魚》 aka Mermaid. Not sure if the movie is worth watching, but the trailer is hilarious for the ways the poor bloke tries explaining to the police that a mermaid is half-human, half-fish, and keeps getting questionable sketches. Also other trailer for the non-ironic octopus-man.

ETA: Trailer for Monkey King 2, focusing on the encounters with the White Bone Demoness, which is one of the most awesome segments in Journey to the West. It's typical fare in operas because it's big and dramatic. This one has Gong Li as the demoness. Unfortunately, Aaron Kwok as Monkey. Bleh.

Yes, whose idea was it to cast Aaron as Sun Wukong? But Gong Li!

Oh man. I need to actually start paying attention to Asian movie releases. I am feeling a dire need for some good HK movie right about now.
