Michelle Yeoh returns to Chinese-language cinema as an elderly woman finding her new calling as a Rubik’s cube champion in IT’S MY TIME, co-starring Liu Haoran.

I know BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS is yesterday’s news but I see it’s coming out on Blu-ray and DVD in Hong Kong on June 10.
I hope Well Go USA will follow suit and go one better with a 4K UHD too.

Probably my favorite find at last week’s Austin Record Convention: THE YOUNG MASTER vinyl soundtrack.
Xie Miao reuniting with his GOD OF GAMBLERS RETURNS co-stars Chow Yun-fat and Tony Leung Ka-fai while promoting THE FURIOUS.

Also: opening in mainland China on June 11, one day ahead of Hong Kong.
I’m digging the artwork. #TheFurious
