Pumped! Still loving the coverage of brand-spankin' new Asian films on your site.

I'm anxiously awaiting news of others like The Monkey King, Giant God Warrior Appears in Tokyo, Outrage 2, The Grandmasters, and more.

Glad you're enjoying it!

We'll definitely be covering OUTRAGE BEYOND as soon as press materials are available, and we're in talks right now to do some VERY cool coverage of GIANT GOD WARRIOR. We don't have any real contacts with Hong Kong/Chinese studios but I'll see what I can do about MONKEY KING and THE GRANDMASTERS. I'm also looking to cover the live action RUROUNI KENSHIN film.

I do have press materials for some upcoming (and few released in the last 6 months or so) Japanese films-- both anime and live action-- and am trying to get as much of it translated as possible.

Yeah anything new is much appreciated! It is definitely harder to find stuff on Chinese, HK, and SKorean cinema compared to Japanese cinema, but I guess that's due to their film industries only getting a lot more attention in the last decade or so.

We do have contacts in South Korea so covering their films is usually pretty easy. I haven't looked into HK/Chinese cinema coverage as much since they generally don't do as many sci-fi/fantasy films as Japan and Korea.
