Back then here in Singapore whenever i watch a John Woo. Its alwaya a mini games to think where doves and pigeon will appear. Finally for once its not use as decoration but played a crucial role as a messanger pigeon.

This has been one of my favourite movie scenes since I was a kid. I always watch it to hype myself up for a challenge. I love how the director chose to hardly even focus on the smaller navy to make you feel not only were they small, but they were insignificant and not worth looking at compared to the grandness of the larger force.

nobody spells cao cao as tsao tsao

Battle of chibi.. Epic history.. Next battle of Fan castle.. Need see guan yu.. Show 💪

they should add this to Total War: Three Kingdoms

I really love Iwasiwa Taro's musics in this film

Dove~ symbol of John Woo film~!

What movie is this i want to wacht it

Saw the movie, and I don't have half of her guts to stir up trouble like his kid sister did! I was very amused!

its kao kao mic drop

I hate how Cao Cao portrayed as a tyrant in this movie.

這一幕我也超喜歡 ! ................. 滿坑滿谷的荊州水軍 一切盡在不言中 講一個字都是多餘的 !

I wish this (or the red one) as screensaver, so epic.

while you die in resi 4 if you touch the laser i assume you just sound an alarm in oceans 12?

@Plautus123 Können Sie Deutsch?

Oceans Twelve, the little French guy is amazing, but compared to a computer game, it's badass.

That song is epic

That's the human race for you; A wonderful scene like the and 3 pages of people arguing over pronunciation /-:

Ocean's Twelve for sure. He even does a heel click for a flourish. No contest. The Biohazard one can't even be called a 'dance'.

All are wrong. This is what I got from my Chinese gf, whose name is Caiyun with the C pronounced differently. Pinyin, which is Chinese Mandarin written in English letters, pronounces C's as TS's, but their pronunciation of T in TS's is so powerful that you cannot hear the S, making his name really pronounced Tao Tao, not Tsao Tsao or Cao Cao.

It's Tsao Tsao. End of discussion.

It's aight. In that case you haven't heard Mandarin enough to distinguish certain sounds. Since Mandarin is a tonal language many of their pronunciations has no counterpart in IndoEuropean languages, and people lose the ability to distinguish sounds they don't often deal with. Many Japanese have a hard time distinguishing between l and r as well.

No, you're just hearing it wrong. Native Mandarin speakers do not say Kao Kao, they say Tsao Tsao. I know this for a fact. You're probably not familiar with the tones and think they pronounce it as Kao Kao. There is no "ka" sound in Mandarin.

Just because I'm American doesn't me I don't know any other language besides English... >_>

>_> ... I am able to speak Mandarin. I've also read texts on how these names are pronounced. I can tell you now that it is definately not pronounced with a K.

They must've had an accent that made them pronounce "ts" as a "k" then...

No, in the film they say T'sao T'sao, not Kao Kao. There is no K sound at all in his name. Most of us English speakers would pronounce Cao Cao as Cow Cow/Kao Kao because of the way it's written.

Comparing pinyin with wade giles Romanization of Mandarin, both of them are really inaccurate, but way more words in pinyin are way off when used in English pronunciations.

His name is pronounced T'sao T'sao. Pinyin is horrible at correctly replicating what the word sounds like for English speakers because it was influenced by Russian. Cao Cao sounds like "Cow Cow"

Maybe he has a hard-on for pigeons? xD

But those two are totally different situations. Troy was in the 10th century BCE, and nobody knows the size of the invasion fleet except the made-up numbers given by Homer. Tsao Tsao's invasion force was about 250,000, with most of them being land forces, and this was in the 3rd century CE.

hiya ...thanks for the get back....i'm sure we're both into the notion of 'flotilla's being filmed....both ...and i've looked again and again at this scene...both offer some amazing imagination.....sad that probably you and i both see the same outcome for a china with too many people....it's truly a beautiful country ravaged by population explosion....but my thoughts are as inconsequential no doubt as is the world's stomach for depopulating....nice to talk on this forum

U got me wrong, I meant the size of the Greek invasion force in the movie Troy was tiny compared to Cao Cao's fleet. Anyway, regarding your comment on China's industrialization program destroying her natural habitat, with greed as one of the motivating factors, we can only expect it to get worse....

it complements but doesn't shame, what shames is what has become of this country where i have lived for 10 years. the raw beauty of china destroyed by the ravaging of population. to me that shames what is otherwise a mightily shot film

Awesome... totally puts King Argemenmon's invasion fleet in the movie Troy to shame... ^o^

Wow very nice music but how did you make the text dissapear?

oceans 12 for sure man!!!

In Leon's defense, the Ocean's Twelve's laserdance is the fakest thing on the planet. It looks cool alright, but the lasers are supposed to have senders AND receiver devices, not just swing around aimlessly. So to make it short, Leon wins. :)

Finish the game at least once. Then choose your hidden blade and start killing
