TIFF Report: They Broke It! They Broke Kung Fu Hustle! Arrrrrgh!!!
Posted by Todd Brown at 12:56pm.
Posted in Film News , Toronto Film Festival 2004.
Gah! I was lusting after this film! All of us Twitch-ers were! We all had tickets for this morning at nine, but they didn’t do us a whole lot of good ... apparently some time between the first screening and last night the Festival organizers released their print for a private screening. Bad move. The private screening people killed the third reel. Killed it dead. Thus, no second Kung Fu Hustle screening. All you people who went to the first one: I hate you.

I hate them like ebola, the first screening people.
Wolf 09/16/2004 @ 7:05pm
I feel your pain too, man. Apparently, they show House of Flying Daggers instead and I didn’t even got to watch that because I left right after they told me...grrrrr

It seems they did not kill the reel at all:

Whaaaaaaaaa?!? If that’s true, that’s really, really sad on Sony’s part. What happened to all of the anti-piracy devices they kept telling us about at screenings? Has there been a record of piracy at the festival in the past?
Todd 09/17/2004 @ 10:32am
I kind of doubt that’s legit ... I mean, they replaced the screening with one of House of Flying Daggers, which is another Sony owned property. If Sony was worried about piracy on Hustle why would they replace the screening with another of their highly anticipated films?
