scroll down a bit and they have the cover for the Taiwan edition of the Crash dvd. They got the four characters lookin happy, Spader with a big warm smile. It gives one the impression that the film is a young adult romantic comedy.

LMAO!!!!!!!! Nice find I burst out laughing for like 2 mins straight, what a hilarious DVD cover. It's so funny cause your right, if that was the first time I had seen that movie in a video store I would think it was some Romantic comedy hahaha ohhhh man.

My girlfriend is Taiwanese and I just had her translate the DVD title from Mandarin. They've renamed it "Super Speeding Sex Chase".

(Apparently they renamed the new Michael Fassbender/Steve McQueen movie "Shame" to "Man Who Is Addicted to Sex", so this would seem to be quite a common phenomenon).

I used to want to change the world. Now I just want to leave the room with a little dignity.

Hahah I wonder what some other films had their titles changed to in Taiwan. I can just see it, Guardians of the Galaxy = Adventures of A Man, A Green Woman, A Big Dumb Tattooed Man, A Talking Animal And A Tree"

That cover is completely ridiculous and hilarious! What incompetent art director did that?

lol, hilarious cover for sure... it reminds me of the one for She's All That or some other romantic comedy I can't quite put my finger on.

And I was going to say at least "Super Speeding Sex Chase" lends some kind of insight into the subject matter, but then again, I don't know. Not really.




I ate more fettuccine Alfredo, and drank less water, than I have in my entire life.

Oh that's awesome! Now if only someone would do a mock trailer making "Crash" look like it's a fun romantic comedy starring your favorite 80s actors, ala the mock trailer for "Shining" 

I don't remember him ever looking that happy in the entire film.
