Yeah, I saw this on IMDB's "Now Playing" list. It stars Yao Ming...Shaquille O'Neal & is voiced by a "close personal friend of Yao" whose name I happen to forget.

Pff, phenomenal? What was so phenomenal about it? He's just another player. Nothing spectacular. If his story is so "amazing", every other Euro should have a movie about himself. Let him go through something like Zo & then I'd say that's phenomenal. Wow, he flew over to the US in an airplane, phenomenal! OMG! :roll:

I kinda agree with you, but I'd still watch any movie about a basketball player :D
And that crossover...wow :shock:
By the way, Pink Floyd-fan Mazzocchi?

Would everyone shut up about Yao? He's on the news, he has his own movie, he started in the all-star game (oh ya what competition except for Brad Miller) he did a frigging grade 2 crossover, he's really overrated imo. :roll:


...and don't answer back with a C-Webb joke, it's getting really annoying... :wink:

C-Webb called timeouts when there weren't anymore and screwed Michigan out of the fab 5, and his team won more games without him than with him. He's on half a leg and he's really overpaid imo. :roll:

Until he's done something amazing (which I'm yet to see), he's just another player.

Bringing up Shaq? What for? A jab? Lame? Yes.

I could bring up the fact the Bulls sucked so hard & made stoopid decisions like trading Artest, but ofcourse, you've got an excuse for that, haven't you?

Oh wait, your reply will probably have something about the Lakers not making the post-season, right?

Ofcourse you plan to see it, Yao Ming is a philipino, isn't he? :lol: lol.

lol predictable...



the reason for bringing up shaq is that you don't need "nba superstar" on your resume to make a movie

and you are being ignorant for only considering yao's nba stats/accomplishments as to why a movie should be made about a nba player, especially for a player like Yao, who is a national hero :roll: :lol:

this is not about you and your shaq daddy so get over yourself :roll: :lol:

hmm maybe you are just having a hard time understanding the english language again.

Who said you do have to be a nba superstar? Don't fabricate stuff to suit your needs. What has Yao done? Zilch.

As I said, wow, he flew to the US of A. Omg. Why don't guys like Pedja get a movie?

If the last part is referring to the word "philipino", I'm just using Jowe's logic, which I think is quite correct. The place isn't called Filippines, is it? It's called Philippines.

No problem, why would there be? I just don't get the hype surrounding the movie.

Gordon here feels the hype is justified, Yao's so amazing you know. :lol:

They're called Filipinos because in Spanish you spell "ph" sounds with an "f"

lol now you're just making shit up. i'm not even hyping the movie up- i just said i'll see the movie. and if you think yao has done nothing at all, not even anything for his country, then i won't even bother dealing with your ignorance and total lack of being in touch with reality

wow, jackal, you must be losing it. i could have just printed that latest post on paper and wipe my ass with it and it would have been just as useful

The thing is Yao's like a Chinese national hero - and since China has the world's largest population, it will be viewed by LOTS of people. Make a movie about Manute Bol and you'll have difficulties drawing a living soul to the movie theaters. Besides, him being even taller than Yao(?), there's no way you could fit him on screen :lol:
