:shock: 24 producers! this movie must have the record!

An anonymous editor did most of the job.

Added 4 prod. companies, 12 members of the prod. team, 3rd unit phot., gaffer, sound, 4 assist. action dir., and 9 actors more!

BTW, this is the 4th time I change the chinese name of Michael Biehn! :x

I am assuming you mean this is the fourth time you have changed Biehn's name for this particular entry? Well, if it's any consolation, at least now you have it correct to how he is actually credited in the film itself.

But if you mean you've had to correct it four times because it's been changed every time you correct it, irrespective of how Biehn is actually credited in the film (per these screen captures from the Hong Kong DVD*), then I think we have a serious problem! :evil: Perhaps one that can be rectified by the implementation of new guidelines for fact-checking? If people keep changing things to either suit themselves, or because they think they're right, over proven factual evidence -- then I think things are going to get very messy here in the DB, very quickly... :?

* Yes, I have too many (DVDs) -- I've you're all ever stuck on a title...ask...I've probably got the film on disc!

:lol: no no, this time the editors are innocent.

Biehn had 2 different chinese names in the chinese sites announcing the movie. So I added those 2 names. Later Mr. Thibodeau found that in the mainland poster (and probably the mainland DVD edition) he had a third chinese name.

Now according to your credits he has... a fourth chinese name! That means 4 chinese names and only 1 movie in our DB. :lol:

:lol: Is this a challenge...?
OK: "Young Dragons: Kung Fu Kids"

Erm...whoops! :oops: I might have to reword that to "If you're ever stuck on a non-martial arts title..."! I think the closest I've ever come to martial arts films are some mid-to-post eighties Jackie Chan, nineties Jet Li and...erm...um...well, do the Twins in THE TWINS EFFECT count? :P
