WUSHU: RELOADED
I saw The Matrix: Reloaded last night. The fight scenes were cool, stuff inbetween the fight scenes was not so cool. And I still stand by my opinion that a lot of the effects looked way too computerized. Beyond that, I don't really have much to say that hasn't already been said in most reviews. I would like to add, however, that the extended church/rave/Neo-and-Trinity-making-wild-monkey-love scene was far too long.
We also had our Wushu barbeque today, which was nice. Free meat + free sodas = good fun. I did discover that one of our teachers, Zhang Hong Mei was chosen by the Chinese government at age 9 to do wushu, and then joined a professional team a couple of years later. She told us how they would get up at 5:30 am to train, only breaking for lunch, then do their school work in the afternoon, and then train again for a few hours at night. I think I'll stop complaining that I get tired during our two hour practices...
