That it is a remake of 1992&#8217;s <strong>Dragon Inn<\/strong> and will star Jet Li and feature action choreography by Yuen Bun is just icing on the cake.<\/p>\n<p>And it sounds as if all involved are putting some thought into how they will be shooting this wushu extravaganza in 3D. In a recent interview pointed out by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20140201191616\/http:\/\/www.bleedingcool.com:80\/2011\/01\/08\/images-and-details-of-tsui-hark-and-jet-lis-first-3d-film-flying-swords-of-dragon-inn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bleeding Cool<\/a>, Hark stated-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>There are three major criteria pertaining to wushu choreography, the  exquisiteness and difficulty level of the moves, the set up as a whole,  and how to use film to show the characteristics and principles behind  wushu. 3D brings about a whole new visual experience, and would  ultimately result in actions designed originally for 2D filming losing  impact, so, we can\u2019t simply import\u00a0these three points based on  traditional ways of filming, but have to come up with actions that are  most suitable for 3D showcase.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bun elaborated-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The sublime state in swordplay only exists in legends, for it&#8217;s hard to  reach such a perfect swordplay level, only very, very few can accomplish  it. As Jet Li is the one using sword this time around, we are able to  go out all in designing some even more demanding, new-wave swordplay,  and given his experience and calibre, he would definitely not let us  down.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Flying Swords Of Dragon Inn<\/strong> is just finishing up filming.
