Looks awesome.
I was starting to think the whole wires thing was getting out of control. Good to see something like this pop up!

The wires thing is kool if done right, it is often more artform and creativity.
Such as the movie Hero.... which is top cinema-artistic stuff.
The guy who plays the spearweilding Sky in Hero, Donnie Yen is a top martial artist and prolly my fav.
Check out his parts in Iron Monkey, Once Upon a Time in China II, Highlander Endgame, Blade II (plus a heap of earlier HK fliks).
Some have wirework but without wires he is so awesome, it is his execution and expressions of the way he executes movements.
-----------------
Ong Bak.
Heard so much, and want too see it bad.
Havent even seen previews.
But what I do know is, I have seen alot of real Muay Thai boxing.
And it is not an "excitement" style of martial art really, quite rough and even random.... kinda hard to word what I am thinking.
But for people to be jumping up and down about how spectacular the fight scenes are in Ong Bak... I am starting to wonder how much of it is actually Muay Thai. They do use knees and elbows often but yea.....
even the ring scenes in Kickboxer between Tong Po and a thai adversary.... not anything like any Muay Thai fight I have seen; alot of low and high round houses, hugging and kneeing simultaneously etc...

Everyone has a right to there own opinion, but I have to say I disagree with you 100% as the Muay Thai martial arts shown in the movie by Tony Jaa put a new meaning to the word EXCITEMENT!
Thats just my opinion though.
I took all my friends that haven't seen it to watch it for my birthday on Friday and I must say watching it for the second time was just as entertaining.

I havent seen it yet, I want to.
I was refering to what I know of actual Muay Thai in ring fights etc, not on screne display, from what I herad the on-screen is spectacular....... so I wuz thinking it may be not very true to what muay thai is in that sense, that was the only small point i wuz making.

Agreed and Agreed Wire work is awesome in hero and artistic stuff like Crouching Tiger... What I was talking about was more Charlies Angels.. 
Although this Ong Bak doesnt use wires, it is still all staged and rehersed to make it looks awesome. But this doesnt take away from the huge props at the actual skill it takes to peform it!

Umm I am guessin a particular release of Ong Bak DVD will have it as special feature.
ebay search works wonders for finding particular DVD releases.
Tramps.... instead of wires, interesting.
well I have seen Samo Hung use some in a film/making he was directing.
