House of Flying BananasPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, March 26, 2007 4:45 PM
A group of American students of Chinese has produced a spoof kung fu film and posted it to Youtube. Apparently shot in Vermont, the film is titled House of Flying Bananas. The dialogue is in laowai-inflected Mandarin, with English subtitles. It's a fun piece of silliness, which you can watch below or on Youtube.

Comments on House of Flying Bananaswow. uh..wow. Ha, funny clip. I don't think I've ever seen so many "greengoes" speak Chinese at the same time before. George -- um, I think that was part of the joke. If I didn't have enough motivation to study Chinese already, this would so seal the deal for me. And where can I learn those moves? Those students are from Middlebury College's summer Chinese school. Those sweet slo-mo moves and banana action kicks aren't available to just any mild-mannered monk in a blue blanket. Years of practice, little grasshopper, years of practice. Plus some ancient green tea and quick video editing. |
