SKIN TRADE (Ekachai Uekrongtham, 2014)

[TEMIRLAN]

I like the fact that Dolph and Michael respct each other and have a nice communication. Looking forward to photos with Perlman, Weller, Tagawa whenever they come up on the set.

Looking at the cast, not to mention the topical story, I'm not throwing it outta the realm of possibility that this gets a theatrical release, albeit limited, but some kind of mainstream attention. Regardless if it does or doesn't... this'll get picked up for distribution no problem.

While filming last night in something they call Bangkok's "Red Light" district, we happened upon what I would guess was some sort of medical massage therapy practice called DR. BJ's. I quickly deduced this particular Doctor must've specialized in "Backs" and "Joints," thus the initials. The nurses uniforms were of a very light material no doubt due to Bangkok's hot climate. Why this Doctor had so many nurses, I couldn't understand. I figured they must've offered food as well from the way the nurses kept gesturing to their mouths. I don't know if there is a chain of Dr. BJ's but judging by the countless men leaving the place strangely covering their faces as the exited, BJ's seem to be a popular thing out here in Thailand!

Jaa and Jai in the Lab, cooking up something just for you.

Hahahahahahaha at MJW's trolling. Though I can't blame the guys, being in Thailand when you're single is a 'when in Rome' scenario.

Practice makes perfect. To put on a good fight you need to make sure everything is put together perfectly. TJ

'Gotta be happy for the big guy... with all the shit he's had to deal with over the last several years (sans expendables) it's great to see one of his dream projects come to life. Hopefully this is super successful for him.

Hope those MJW/Jaa pics aren't spoiling anything.

Time to rumble, in the film "Skin Trade" TJ

[savagesketch]

Is it safe to assume that Michael Jai White portrays the "heavy" in this film? The lead villain / head trafficker...? Or am I off?

Shooting on location last night, in between takes I noticed a lot of people from the neighborhood near the set peeking through a fence. We opened up the fence to say hello. It was really fun meeting the people who lived in the area of the set location. TJ
