    When asked by Hollywood and western media on his obsession with akimbo's and dual wielding automatics, which is rare in western cinema, Woo simply replied :
    _"god gave us two hands, why not use both ?"_
    Thats why I love this guy and his films

    If I were to do a parody of a John woo movie; I would have a shoot out scene in which right the middle of the crossfire would stand a magician with a top hat 🎩. He'd remove his hat, doves would fly out and either crap on the protagonist's shoulder or fly in the faces of the bad guys.
    It's would also be funny if the movie took place in California, and the good guy had to fight the bad guys with only 10 round magazines
