Look Out Officer! (1990)

[Drunk Monk]

Then again, maybe you just introduced some false memories in me.

It wasn't me, i swear. It's been that way since Jinan, after we recited the BSL#1-10 drinking that gawdawefull wine.  That opened a nexus to...the tesseract. 

If you watch Mad Monk, do a lot of speed first.  Everyone talks a mile a minute, and I could only get about half of the subtitles.  But if your Chinese is decent, that could supplement your understanding a bit, and you could probably cut the speed back a smidge.  But why bother?

I got about an hour in and passed out - into the movie, not the blow - still tweakin with my circadian rhythms obviously as I'm posting now at 3AM.  I suspect that it's one of those Cantonese pun-ridden comedies.  Cantonese, being tonal, has an extra dimension of punning, and I've been in theaters where the dialog gets fast and furious, as well as rather random, just like this, and the audience is roflmao. I remember watching movies with Sifu and him even chuckling like this. But the Cantonese speakers can't explain - puns just don't translate.  My understanding is that Chow is a master of this sort of pun humor and the puns are sustained with wicked double meanings for long complicated scenes.  

Or maybe it's just a false memory of mine.

I blame the tesseract.  It's always the tesseract.
