Tony Jaa should Play Hanuman! He did well to show Thai culture here.
Firstly I am not of Thai descent so this is my perspective as an Indian.
I have always been interested in learning about and understanding different cultures. I have seen a lot of Chinese films and I have really wanted to know about Thailand as there are many similarities. Like the worship of Ganesh and Hanuman as forms of God.
I enjoyed this movie as I saw a lot of Thai culture, villages, and ancient civilisations. I felt it was truly beautiful. The elephant scenes were also spectacular. Ong Bak 1 was good but for me it just seemed western, maybe that is how Thailand is today but Ong Bak 2 and 3 has shown me a lot.
I think Tony Jaa should take on real Thai fairytales and folk stories like Ramayan. I can see him play Hanuman really really well. Especially if he goes to Hollywood, he should keep it like The forbidden Kingdom. Show Thai and Indian civilisation like that.
I can see Tony Jaa play a funny, warm, bubbly and fast Hanuman in an English Ramayan. I think he should join the new movie Rama: Rise of Dharma which is being made in Britain.
