Keep wishing. I had a hard enough time getting them to send me to Orlando
for the Roland/Edirol GS Developers Conference, and that's real work.
JF> I recall you telling me that there's a surprise on the Shadow Warrior
JF> CD. Could you tell me what it is (I'm not a big fan of surprises)?
Well, Lo Wang gets his chance in front of a microphone, sort of. That's
all I'm going to say on the subject.
JF> on how well you did). Of course, you probably got word that Elliot
JF> Chin doesn't think too highly of Shadow Warrior! He calls it racist

All you have to do is look at "The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu" (Peter
Sellers) or "Kentucky Fried Movie" (the "Fistful of Yen" sequence -
Zucker/Abrams/Zucker) to see exactly what we did. Parody of movie styles.
Par-o-dy. Look up an old rerun of "In Living Color", or check out Eddie
Murphy's "undercover assignment" as a "white man" to see other parodies of
this type. No one complained about this stuff, but they complain about
ours. Go figure.
