The Bloody Case That Started From A Steam Bun (一个馒头引发的血案),

Has anyone seen this spoof? I never saw the original movie (The Promise) but the parody sounds really funny. Is it available on youtube?

i think most chinese have seen the spoof,or at least heard of it. as for the original movie(promise), it's also funny.thinking of the laughters brought by it, i guess it deserves the money on the ticket.

hah ,you have seen this spoof! it's very funny, i like this spoof too,but i haven't seen the original .

This spoof was a big hit   and it  was  very famous in china. even  the  author  got into trouble for this short film.i saw it  many times but i never saw the original film because i don't like the director.

you can find it on youtube .  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIU4udZRKEY

i hope you will understand the  chinese dialogue. 

oh…i don't like it…

Apparently, Chen Kaige's mother-in-law was Mao Tse Tung's English teacher!

Film director Chen Kaige's (陈凯歌) awful but awfully expensive movie The Promise (无极) has been widely panned by Chinese moviegoes and critics alike. A man named Hu Ge (胡戈) made a twenty minute spoof of the film called The Bloody Case That Started From A Steam Bun (一个馒头引发的血案), which was copied on many different websites and Internet forums.

Chen Kaige was enraged, and has started proceedings to sue the author of the spoof, earning the famous director even more ridicule.

Now his ex-wife, Hung Huang (or Hong Huang) has stepped into the fray, on her new blog on Sina.com.

Unforunately, I cannot understand the humor.

 I like the concept though. I love comedy. 

I understand that one of the problems with using a lot of humor in language learning is that what may seem to be amusing in one culture may not be so in another.
