KevJumba and Justin Chon star in the buddy comedy 'Man Up'

Justin Chon's directorial debut is now available for on-demand streaming from Vimeo.



Man Up is just about one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen... and I laughed my ass off. The indie feature comedy from actor-director Justin Chon, and starring Kevin Wu (YouTube's KevJumba) and Nichole Bloom, is now available for on demand streaming exclusively through Vimeo.

The buddy comedy, set and shot in Hawaii, follows 19-year-old slacker Martin, who has big plans for the summer... to do absolutely nothing. However, his plans are foiled when his girlfriend Madison drops a bomb on his carefree summer -- she is pregnant and refuses to see him until he grows up. With the help of his best friend, he embarks on a man-quest to figure what it means to be a dad and "man up."

We have the newly dropped trailer for the crime drama Revenge of the Green Dragons.

Production begins on Revenge of the Green Dragons

Some interesting movie news... It looks like we'll be seeing the likes of Harry Shum Jr., Justin Chon, KevJumba and MC Jin starring in Revenge of the Green Dragons.

Production has already begun on the gangster action thriller, which is inspired by a New Yorker article on the Chinese American underworld. Directed by Hong Kong filmmaker Andrew Lau and executive produced by Martin Scorsese, the 1980s-set crime drama tells the story of two immigrant siblings' rise and fall within a New York Chinatown gang, the Green Dragons. So who's in the movie?

The film's IMDb page already lists Glee's Harry Shum Jr. and Eugenia Yuan as part of the cast. But some rumors began circulating this week that Justin, Kevin and Jin have roles in the movie. The speculation seemed to be confirmed by a couple of intriguing tweets between the actors.
