Shaolin Soccer 2: Shaolin Girl Trailer
A while ago we heard about a follow up film to the amazing Stephen Chow film Shaolin Soccer… the catch is that this time it’s about a girl who plays lacrosse. Yes… lacrosse. At first it sounded too odd to be true, but I immediately realized that if you really think about Chow’s other films… NOTHING is too ridiculous.
Anyway, our friends over at Filmjunk posted up a trailer for it and I thought you’d like to check it out. I actually don’t think it looks anywhere near as fun… maybe they’re holding a whole bunch back from the trailer? As a side note… seriously folks, if you haven’t been Shaolin Soccer yet… make sure you get out and grab a copy or order one online… it’s sooo worth it.

…uh, John, shouldn’t it be named “Shaolin Lacrosse” then?

This isn’t supposed to be a direct sequel. Stephen Chow is on board as producer only and some of the cast is back. Heck, it’s not even a Chinese production. A film company from Japan (hence the Japanese tiles) decided to pick it up. It has potential, though.

Bless your heart for promoting Shaolin Soccer. That show is hilarious- Kung Fu Hustle is even better.

Is this movie even related to the original one? The chinese title just translates as Shaolin Girl.

its not a sequel!its like someone said above, its only using stephen chow as producer maibe who nows a special apearence but i dont no.
the cast is almost all japonese and the production its from there to.
i think its one of that movies that only use the premise or the basic idea from a previous succesfull movie to atract moviegoers.
this is normal here in japan!
