What went wrong?
>>70410663
Nothing
After America was limiting him he went back to Hong Kong after paycheck
Still the best action director around, even his lesser Hollywood films have better action than most blockbusters

>He went back to Hong Kong
But there is no Hong Kong cinema anymore, the mainland industry has literally subsumed it. He hasn't made a Canto film since Hard Boiled

Paycheck was horrible desu

>paycheck is horrible
Lad no ones saying it isn't, woo was notoriously limited in Hollywood, but he still made some solid, if not goofy, shit

No the killer or hard boiled tho
do you think woo could direct a capekino?
>>70410987
He could but I don't think he would
Punisher and wolverine seem right up his alley though
>>70410892
Paycheck was good but they should have kept the original ending.

What went Wong?
the doves started shitting on him
red cliff was pretty good
>>70410663
isnt it obvious. The fucking guy doesnt understand american culture so he can only direct.
look at his Hongkong and Mainland China credits, he is always the director AND the writer. In hollywood he can only direct shitty scripts shitty writers give him.

there is a pattern that hongkong and mainland film makers have trouble understanding hollywood. The only exception is Ang Lee and hes from taiwan.
some notable hollywood failures from chinese directors:
my blueberry nights - wong karwai
dragon blade - daniel lee
Killing Me Softly - chen kaige
