Curse of the Golden Flower has too much cleavage on the girls.

Watch Curse of the Golden Flower and tell me that the amount of cleavage on the girls isn’t distracting. They literally bounce up and down when one of the girls run. I’m mean, how am I suppose to read the subtitles when all the girls are so scantily clad in the headlight region. I swear they are all wearing push-up bras in this movie. Part of the evidence:

Looking mad with a lot of cleavage.
Carrying soup with a lot of cleavage.
Writing with a lot of cleavage. And I think they will fall out if she bends over.

This is the first wuxia movie that I have seen that emphasized cleavage so much.

But hopefully, not the last! Yes, it was a bit distracting at points.

Then again, of the films in this genre that I’ve seen, I didn’t find Golden Flower to be all that great, so I was probably more easily distracted than usual.

Y’know, I keep reading that title over and over and it’s weird–I understand each separate word, but for some reason it makes no sense whatever as a sentence.

Let me try again–nope, does not add up to meaningful information in my world, sorry.

Aaaaand, this movie just got bumped to the top of my Netflix queue.

Thanks for the links.

Bwahahahaha! Good one!

But those puppies are so tightly bound they’re not going anywhere.

I kinda saw it as “Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah cleavage on the girls”

I’m somewhat ashamed to admit I didn’t really read the OP, I just clicked on the links and skimmed down the thread to make sure there weren’t any more links.

What? You couldn’t have posted this a day earlier?

I was out buying movies yesterday.

Allow me to rephrase the observation: Curse of the Golden Flower had so much general suckage that the large amount of cleavage on the many hot girls could not save it.

How unusual, a film made in China showing the superiority of centralized authority.

It looked to me like those poor girls were really working hard to get even a modest bit of cleavage going. Ya gotta have something to push up for the push up bra to work.

Some people like cleavage. I personally look down on it.

12

Any movie, no matter how bad, is improved by female cleavage. Imagine how bad the film would have been without the cleavage distraction, and you’ll realize this is an absolute.

Thanks for the mammeries

Too…much?

…Too much…cleavage?

You’re aware you’re going into “giving up your man card” territory, right?

“Long wait”

Dammit!

16

I’m sorry, but that is to cleavage as Loni Anderson’s hair is to blonde.

I’ll take the real thing any time.

While I usually like movies of this genre, I didn’t make it all the way through this movie. Something about it just wasn’t very good. Maybe too much pretty scenery, not enough kung-fuing?

18

Just out of curiosity, is it another wire-fu movie? Man, I get sick of those. I plowed my way through Hero only out of force of sheer will. I know it’s supposed to lend an air of myth and fable to the proceedings, but I usually find the stylized fight sequences to be really drawn-out and pointless. The scenery and the cinematography provide good eye candy, and the plots are good, but the wire-fu just takes me out of the experience.

The imperial “ninjas” take wire-fu to a whole new level.

Hoo boy.
