Kaiju Shakedown confirms the name–we think–and release date for Stephen Chow's latest film, just not the plot.
The Hope, which we linked to promo photos under the working title CJ7, will be released on January 31st, 2008.
The plot is still anyone's guess, but we can confirm three things: Chow plays a poor man, probably has a son and aliens are involved.
And there will be laughter. And exploitable CGI.

His son. 9-year-old girl. What. The. Fuck.
Was there not a single 9-year-old boy on that @#$&%ing contiinent to play the part of, um, a 9-year-old boy?!?
Stephen Chow makes very entertaining movies, and I've seen a lot of what he has done - and multiple times. But dude, Stevie-Boy, we don't need cross-dressing 9-year-olds on our hands, especially when you damn near shave their heads. Got some kind of sick fetish for the freakish alien-head Natalie Portman look? Bad Chow, bad! And I'm not talking about this greasy, slimy cheeseburger I'm wolfing down right now, either.
