a5c7b9f00b Old 1970s Martial arts films individually re-cut down to standard television half hour lengths, re-scored with hit music, re-dubbed with the comedic voice overs of hip hop personalities, and re-combined with comic book style graphics and video game theme pacing. This is a super fun series that was so far ahead of its time that it still feels engaging year after year. Tons of great music and creative editing ideas mixed with smart comedy and style while displaying obvious respect for classic kung fu films, comic book art and video game culture. I first saw episodes of Kung Faux being played at a memorable exhibition at the Studio Museum of Harlem and then again at a cultural exhibition at The Bronx Museum of the Arts. Its awesome to see entertaining television be treated as art when you least expect it. If you love hip-hop & Kung Fu movies, or even just anime this show will make you laugh your ass off. They take old Kung Fu movies and dub them over with the voices of gangster rappers speaking ghetto slang. Thats the basis of the show. But it makes for some hilariously comedic moments. I can't speak for anybody else.. But personally, I could watch this show all day while stoned and be content. If you've ever wondered how faithful English dubs of foreign films and shows are, this show is sure to confuse you if you have no sense of humor and you don't realize its a joke… Also, if you're an extreme weaboo otaku this show might offend you. lol
