I’m delighted to announce that as of Eugene’s review of Wu Xia the other day, Heroic Cinema now has precisely 1,000 reviews up on the site.
It’s been a long time since we started — even I, a Johnny-come-lately compared to some of the team, can remember when we used to review films on videotape and couldn’t wait for SBS to program something fun… say, all of Jackie Chan’s HK movies on successive Friday nights. Nowadays, we get Australian DVDs and theatrical releases of so much Asian cinema and anime that our biggest problem is keeping up with it all!
Thanks to everyone who’s ever written for us, and here’s to the next thousand!
(And if you’d like to help out and feel like writing about your favourite piece of cinema or anime — get in touch, we’d love to have you!)
