Dragon Boys receives Critical Acclaim at GEMINIS 2007
Schema has always been a big fan of the mini-series DRAGON BOYS! In fact we devoted an entire fansite to the Vancouver-based Asian Canadian crime story. Packed with internationally recognized Asian Canadian talent, as well as Hong Kong's megastar Eric Tsang, it was no surprise that Dragon Boys was nominated for 9 Gemini Awards (the official Canadian Emmy Awards).
On Wednesday Dragon Boys received the Gemini Award for BEST DRAMATIC MINI-SERIES. Uber-TV-writer Ian Weir also took home a trophy for Best Writing in a Dramatic Program or Mini-Series. According to lead actor Byron Man's blog, "Dragon Boys will debut in Hong Kong and China this fall."
To all the haters who complained about stereotyping, see Jet Li's latest film War. Also shot in Vancouver, War takes the west coast Asian gangster stereotypes to a whole new level.
