promo reel of tony jaa’s “ong bak 2″ on twitch - now for real



Twitchfilm has an exclusive baby that’s not yet on Youtube now - a very official promo reel from the directorial debut of Thailand’s supreme action hero Tony Jaa. Jaa’s earned an instant ticket into the martial arts “unbelievably good as fuck” class with his first movie Ong-Bak and strengthened it with a more brawly and brutal sequel (with just as good technical finesse) Tom Yum Goong. This movie has also been called Ong-Bak 2, this being a universally bad move as the movies have nothing to do with each other.

Ong-Bak 2, on the other hand, has nothing to do with these - the movie is about a youngster whose life is saved by a group of martial artists. The little guy makes quite an effort to study and blend all his masters’ skills together and trust me, if you thought Jaa has nothing to do with kung fu or close-quarters melee fight, watch the Twitch trailer and you’ll be so amazed.

The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first .hu netradio for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning animation Nyócker.

Started LD50 in 2001, an alternative community portal for some, a media experiment for him. DJ'd and organized for 6 years @ Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights, the VK/jrock Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Key figure behind the cyberpunk PDF magazine THE DOSE and he's making a comeback with it.

He's currently an IT/science journalist, with a love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee and chili, eyecandy, Japan and a life-long devotion to all things cyberpunk & slipstream.
