I’d be happy if I could speak Cantonese OR Mandarin… it would open a whole new world of movies to me for sure. As it is I’m limited to reading subtitles (I never go with dubbed).
If the Forbidden Kingdom is the same as the Forbidden Palace I’ve been there and got around just fine, solo, speaking only English. Of course if you know Mandarin things become 10x less expensive so it’s worth it bringing your mom!
I looked at the trailer for Forbidden Kingdom and I’m almost 100% sure it was shot in the Guangxi region which is held to be the most beautiful in China. At time 00:17 in this video it is clearly Guilin, and pays homage to the Chinese currency. That picture from Guilin is close to the image on the back of the 20-yuan note.
I was surprised to have liked Drunken Master I a lot so will definitely check out II thanks!

April 20, 2008 at 11:23 PM #191176StradivariusParticipantGuangxi does look very beautiful. This site lists some of the other filming locations: http://www.movieweb.com/news/58/23058.php
I'm also interested in Wuyi Mountain in Fujian province. Looks amazing.
Now if I could only take a month off of work to travel….
