China, the Middle Kingdom, gets the Middle Earth treatment. I remember Crouching Tiger, HIdden Dragon was disappointing in that it seemed to lack that epic quality in terms of plot; it was built on imagery alone. This seems to have a lot more substance, and pairing Jet Li with Jackie Chan gives it immediate gravitas. I am looking forward to this.
