God of Gamblers – “Chow Yun-Fat” “Andy Lau” Uncensored Trailer

God of Gamblers – “Chow Yun-Fat” “Andy Lau” Uncensored Trailer ?? “Wong Jing” Charles Heung “Joey Wong” “Sharla Cheung” “Ng Man-Tat” “Lung Fong” “Michiko Nishiwaki” amnesia gambler gambling dice Hong Kong action comedy drama film Violent gun fights Las Vegas to gamble trailer preview teaser Heroic Bloodshed Intense hardcore ballistic Max Payne Stranglehold shootouts Cinematography Peter Pau
God of Gamblers (traditional Chinese: ??; simplified Chinese: ??; pinyin: D?shén; lit. God of Gambling) is a 1989 Hong Kong action comedy-drama film written and directed by Wong Jing, and featuring an ensemble cast.
Chow Yun-Fat plays Ko Chun, an extremely talented gambler who can guess how the dice will turn out by listening to them rattle in a cup. On the eve of a big confrontation with a famous Singaporean gambler, Ko walks into a trap set by Knife, an avid but a so-so gambler (Andy Lau), meant for an Indian servant. Struck on the head, Ko suffers from amnesia and regresses to a child-like state. Knife, not knowing who Ko is, takes him in and gives him a name, Chocolate, since Ko now has an over-obsessive love for chocolate. As soon as he recognizes Ko’s talents begins to exploit his abilities. This invites further trouble and trauma for Ko leading up to a big finale. Ko’s bodyguard Dragon arrives after tracking him down to protect him from thugs who tried to kill him. After a fierce gun-battle in which Ko killed all his enemies, he became horrified and ran out into the street where he was struck by a vehicle. Moments later at the hospital, Knife came to visit him only to learn Ko have no memory of him and was thrown out by security to his dismay. Meanwhile, Ko Chun’s driver helps the Singaporean gambler by giving him glasses that can see dots on cards (which tells him if it’s a King, Queen, Jack,or Ace). During the big showdown, Ko Chun loses 2 rounds and during the last round, fools the Singaporean gambler thus winning all of the money. Then, the Singaporean gambler is sent to jail because he misunderstandingly shot Ko Chun’s driver. In the end, Ko Chun remembers Knife and takes him to Las Vegas to gamble.

[edit] Cast

* Chow Yun-Fat as (??/??)Ko Chun(The God of Gamblers) / Chocolate
* Andy Lau as (???)Michael Chan/Knife/Dagger
* Charles Heung as (??)Lung Wu/Dragon
* Joey Wong as (?)Jane/Jen
* Sharla Cheung as Janet
* Ng Man-Tat as (???) Brother Shing
* Lung Fong as (??)Ko Yee
* Michiko Nishiwaki
* Wong Jing (cameo)

[edit] Sequels, spin-offs and parodies

The success of the film spawned many parodies and spin-offs such as All for the Winner starring Stephen Chow. Several more comedy-driven sequels also starring Stephen Chow were released, as well as a sequel where Chow Yun-Fat reprises his role as Ko Chun.

God of Gamblers series:

* God of Gamblers (1989)
* God of Gamblers II (1991) – This film continues where the original God of Gamblers storyline left off. This time, Andy Lau’s character teams up with Stephen Chow’s character from All for the Winner. Chow Yun-Fat did not return for this film, but his God of Gambler character did show up for a brief cameo appearance using archive footage.
* God of Gamblers III: Back To Shanghai (1991) – The film is the sequel to God of Gamblers II. Only several characters from God of Gamblers II returned for this sequel.
* God of Gamblers Returns (1994) – Also released under the name God of Gamblers 2 (but not God of Gamblers II) this is the ‘true’ sequel to the original God of Gamblers film, with Chow Yun-Fat back to reprise his role as the God of Gamblers.
* God of Gamblers 3: The Early Stage (1996) – A markedly unsuccessful prequel of the original God of Gamblers, starring Leon Lai as Ko Chun. It may be assumed that this is a reboot to the God of Gamblers series because of the inconsistencies with the previously established story of God of Gamblers e.g. Ko Chun and his bodyguard, meet for the very first time in the first film and therefore should not know each other in this prequel.

Spin-offs:

* All for the Winner (1990) – Stephen Chow is the Saint of Gamblers in this popular God of Gamblers parody.
* Fist of Fury 1991 (1991) – Stephen Chow’s Saint of Gamblers character does a brief cameo appearance at the start of this film.
* The Top Bet (1991) – This is a spin-off of All for the Winner, with only several characters from the original reprising their role. Stephen Chow did, however, make a cameo appearance in this spin-off. The film stars Anita Mui and Carol Cheng.
* Fight Back to School 3 (1993) – Stephen Chow’s character visits Mr. Hung, the ‘King of Gamblers’ from All for the Winner to gain some gambling tips.
* Saint of Gamblers (1996) – A spin-off of the All for the Winner series, with only Ng Man-Tat reprising his role.

The 12 You’s Of Online Gaming

Fourth in a series of 12 You Videos by Aron Ching (ForFun808)

This video is a list of 12 things to annoy everyone about Online Gaming.

Thanks to all who sent their ideas for this video! I have another 12 You video in which YOU can participate in, so go now!

My Website: http://www.forfunproductions.com/

FU#1
To the people who have to hack and cheat just to win in an online game.
WTF is your problem?
These cheaters are retards because the spoil the fun for everyone playing the game, including themselves, so what’s the point?! They will also never get any better at the game because they’re never going to understand the game and are gonna have to rely on their little hacks just to compete, how pathetic!

FU#2
L-A-G
Lag during an online game. If you lag, then fix your connection or buy a better computer! You would think that with all the new technology available and the next generation being such spoiled brats, that people could at least afford something better than a 56k modem!

FU#3
Don’t play an online game unless you know how to play or have played the single player first! Nobody wants a noob who doesn’t know what the they are doing on their team! So if you don’t want to be called a noob, play the single player game first and learn how to play before going online!

FU#4
Users who BACKSTAB and KILL THEIR OWN TEAM MATES during games! Again wtf is the point!? Users who backstab are douche nozzles because they sit at their computers all day killing their team instead of learning how to legitimately play the game!

FU#5
OK people STOP MAKING EXCUSES when you lose or die in an online game. NO the other person is not a hacker, the other person didn’t cheat, your team mates were NOT noobs, your connection wasn’t bad, you just lost and were beat fair and square. So LIVE WITH IT, DEAL WITH IT, and learn how to take a loss you poor sport!

FU#6
Spam bots that flood the game chat rooms with useless bullshit. Why can’t we ever escape spam!? NOOO I don’t want to win a million dollars, win a hot date, or claim my prize because you’re not going to actually give it to me dammit!

FU#7
Users who go around stealing other people’s kills and items. Stealing experience, stats, and items from other users online is a new low. Learn how to earn your own the real way, and while your at it learn how to play the game by yourself without having to leech off of others!

FU#8
Shit talkers and extremely cocky players in online games. First off, stop being cocky? Who gives a if you’ve been playing longer or know more. Secondly, its ok to talk smack, but some users just over do it. Just shut the up and let your playing do the talking for you! And if any of you get your kicked, don’t continue to talk to the other player! I mean they just kicked your ass, so it makes no sense to continue to talk crap to them. Also, don’t even think about calling a person who just killed you a noob! Think about it, they just killed you and your calling them a noob, you know what that means? It means your saying you just got OWNED by a noob, dumbass.

FU#9
Microphone abuse! Like when little kids are going around screaming and swearing; or when people can’t just keep quiet and play. And the ventrilo harassment on the vent talking system has got to stop. It was funny at first when users played sound bites on the ventrilo talk, but now its just old and retarded. Not everyone who plays online games is a nerd, and none of them deserved to be harassed by sound bites. So leave the players alone, let them play their game, and have fun!

FU#10
Its ok to play games, but its never ok for people to play games 16 hours straight! If you thought crack addicts were bad just take a look at some of the video game addicts. Come on people, wake up! Take a break and get off your computer before your eyes go blind, your brain goes numb, and before your social life goes plummeting down to the depths of hell.

FU#11
Stop E-Begging people for money and items in online games! In the time you spent spamming the out of people and begging like a for money, you could have actually played the game and earned money yourself! These beggars will never move up anywhere in the game and they shouldn’t be begging! So stop being lazy! Get off your and start earning your rewards in the game yourself!

FU#12
OK people STOP taking these online games so seriously! I mean you’ve all heard the phrase a million times, “its just a game”, and its called a GAME for a reason. The purpose of these games is to keep people entertained and to give users the fun and enjoyment of playing it. Video games and online games are NOT your lives. Its ok to play them, and not everyone who plays games is a nerd so don’t label them. But if your one who plays games all your life, go outside for once and see the rest of the world your missing!
