    Back when Stephen Chow was directing he was also going to be Kato. But, of course... he left.

    I wonder how Stephen Chow would have approached this film and the role of Kato.

    I'd rather have Christoph Waltz play a villain in just about every case though.

    If I had my way every villain would be played by the only man in Hollywood qualified to portray every villain!

    He is a shining beacon of vileness and an inspiration whenever I channel a role myself.

    not being a native english speaker is kind of part of kato's thing though

    Yeah, but that trailer ruined his speaking parts for me. I mean goddamn.

    Apparently no-one really thought about what they were doing when they set about making this movie-
    The tone is too campy, they're not happy with the work from director Michel Gondry and Seth Rogen does not look the part.

    edit- Yeah I don't know what to make of that trailer. It's trying so hard to be serious but with nothing serious to use.

    Wouldn't the data get instantly sent to somewhere else as soon as the picture was taken though? I mean, what, does it just print out polaroids inside the box, and then some guy comes round at night and collects them?

    I love the Green Hornet. I listened to a lot of old radio programs when I was really young, because my parents evidently set out to raise a chronologically-dispaced weirdo, and most of the tapes I had were the Green Hornet, The Shadow, and Sherlock Holmes. As a kid I loved The Shadow a little more than Green Hornet because I really liked Margo.

    But seriously, listen to how awesome this show was.

    Anyway. I'm going to see the hell out of this movie and, I hope, enjoy it. Although I'd prefer it set in the '40s. I hope it is good.

    ...the other thing the Green Hornet always reminds me of is this, which doesn't really mean anything, but is a further proof of how awesome the character is:

    I don't know what to make of that article already bashing Green Hornet when there hasn't even been screenings yet. I enjoy Gondry and I even liked Be Kind Rewind... so I'm sure I'll find something to like from this one.

    Edit: Ok, I just found the trailer on Youtube so I could watch it at work... wtf was wrong with that?

    I have no idea why people are expecting something UNcampy from the Green Hornet. I've seen the 60's TV show and heard the serials...

    Honestly I'm mostly excited about this for Christoph Waltz.

    Nicolas Cage had the role originally but had to drop out. I'm really glad Waltz has it now.

    Christoph Waltz is good yes

    But man

    it could've been Nic Cage

    It could've been Nic Caaaaaaaaage

    The Green Hornet show had like those two crossovers with the Batman series, but it never quite meshed because it wasn't nearly as campy as Batman; the tones were still very different, though the shows were created by the same guy (I think). But with GH they managed to avoid the campiness.
