For the longest time RZA has been talking about a movie that he was working on and how he would not release it until he got the blessing of “The Abbot” Quentin Tarantino. Well judging from this lengthy expose trailer for Wu-Tang Vs The Golden Phoenix, I am going to assume that the Abbot told his young padawan learner to go ahead and birth his baby to the world.
Being a lifelong hip-hop fan and one of the kids of the eighties that worshiped Kung-Fu Cinema, Enter the 36 Chambers by the Wu-Tang Clan revealed to me a sound that echoed many flashbacks of the movies I so love. From the production days for the Wu-Tang clan all the way up to being one of the most wanted music producers in Hollywood, Robert Diggs aka RZA has become a cultural icon along with his friend Quentin Tarantino. On this alone I put my trust that this movie should not disappoint!
I dunno folks, with Black Dynamite’s success, this coming out and The Karate Kid doing as well as it did, I am going to wager that black and yellow makes for some good Kung-Fu creativity… and to think we thought that the love of Kung-Fu died sometime in the 80s. Somebody pinch me, I think I’ve fallen into fanboi paradise.
