Great, now we get the onslaught of “Kung Fu <animal>” movies

A friend saw my review of “Kung Fu Panda” [1] and sent me a link to “Kung Fu Gecko [2]” (yet another nail in the coffin for Hollywood's creativity). I saw the trailer for the film, and as my friend said, “they better hire some writers if that's the funniest this thing gets.” I can't even figure out what the film is about.

Not to say that I didn't know what “Kung Fu Panda” was about either from the one commercial, but just seeing a giant panda [3] and a red panda [4] fight using chop sticks over some dumplings was enough to make me see the film.

The trailer for “Kung Fu Gecko”?

Let's just say that it makes “The Love Guru” look good [5].
