Monkey King 3
#5
Watched this again on DVD with Stacy and Tara.  Both approved.  Stacy usually disdains fantasy CGI movies (except for Harry Potter) but was taken by the visuals and story.  Tara laughed a lot and slightly remembered the story from when I read it aloud to her.  She knows the characters well and got just as excited as I did with the final scene - the tease that the next film might be the Fiery Mountains.  That's one of the best stories in the book.  

MK3 didn't do that well in the theaters - comparable to how Solo performed actually - it still garnered a decent box office but it wasn't the blockbuster they hoped for and so was deemed a flop.  Not sure if MK4 will happen.  Stephen Chow is taking another shot at MK with his next project.  We'll see how that goes.  His previous stabs at MK have been messes - funny as Chow is wont to be, but messes.
