Can't wait! I love Tony Jaa and his action films. Ong Bak 2 wasn't the best as far as the story is concerned. It left off at an odd point, and didn't conclude enough in order to feel worth it. That being said, the action is simply amazing. So sad that he's a monk for the time being and Ong Bak 3 will be the last we see of him for a couple years.

Agreed. I love Tony Jaa's work. He's simply awesome on the screen. One of my favorite martial arts actors. Just amazing watching most of his stuff. It two, that part where they're fighting on the elephant was cool. But I do agree it wasn't as great as the first. Can't wait to see part 3 though.

And seriously? I didn't know that about him being a monk and being away for a while.

Yeah, I wrote it from memory, but here's an article I just looked up for anyone who's curious. http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com...

I think 3 will be better because it'll actually conclude the story 2 started with. And yeah he went off to join the monastery. Presumably the reason is that he's trying to get away from his production company (who kidnapped him once when he didn't make the movie they wanted him too) until the end of his 10 year deal. In his country it's not unheard of for men to join the monastery for a period of time, and then leave whenever they want. According to their laws, when they become a monk, the laws essentially can't touch them. So if he's trying to get out of his contract all he has to do is sit there until the time is up, and they can't do a thing about it.

Sucks for us though, who can't wait to see more of him.

Blu-Ray Review: Ong Bak 3 – The Final Battle - NERDSociety

Tony Jaa was suppose to be the next big asian action movie star. He had the lethal moves like Bruce Lee but did his own stunts Jackie Chan. His first movie, Ong Bak, was an international success. Martial art fans loved the movie for its brutal fight and innovative fight scenes.

(Nfamous.net) Review: Ong-Bak 3 on Blu-ray

Nfamous writes:
’m a sucker for good kung fu, no matter it’s nationality. Show me someone stylishly kicking someone else’s head in and I’ll tune in like a bandit. That’s why I love Tony Jaa so much. Sure, his films make very little sense (just watch Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior for proof), but his mastery of fighting is unmatched, to the point that I want to see him make a movie with Jet Li and Jackie Chan. Has to happen, folks. Has to happen.

Has anyone seen this? Is it any good? I loved the first Ong-Bak but 2 was completely different and I wasn't really into it.

That pic looks really sex.... errrgh I mean homo. EWWWWW.

Arcee5057d ago

I haven't seen it but my writer on the site did. He was so-so about it. But then again, he is a big martial arts film fan.

-MD-5057d ago

Well if he's into martial arts and he only thought it was "so-so" then I should probably avoid it. The original was so good too why did they have to go and ruin it?

darklordzor5057d ago

I'm going to be honest with you...I didn't care for #2's story. It was convoluted and tried for too much. It just didn't work. However, that's not at all the reason I watched it. I probably could have watched all of the film without the subtitles and enjoyed it just as much. That being said, I'm anxious to see the third film, just because I love seeing Tony Jaa in action. I'm sure the story won't get much better, but the action is always top notch.

JL5056d ago

lol Exactly. The story could've been the worst writing in the world ever and I still would've watched it. Just like I'm still going to watch this. I don't need a story to watch Tony Jaa. Hell, just give me a montage of action and fight scenes with him and I'll be happy.

Despite the story in Part 2 taking a dive, I still very much enjoyed the movie. Just like I'm sure I'll enjoy the third. Can't wait to see it either.

By the way, you're "eager" to see it, not "anxious". "Anxious" denotes worry or nervousness in your anticipation. Sorry, had to be a grammar nazi for a second :P lol

I dunno... it says

2. earnestly desirous; eager (usually followed by an infinitive or for ): anxious to please; anxious for our happiness. "

I'm pretty sure his use of anxious fits in that sentence. Then again I'm no teacher.
