TT observation
There was a scene showing Tony Leung and Takeshi playing table tennis(TT). Tony Leung was using penholder style playing against Takeshi. The Takeshi character was a total beginner, and Tony Leung character was supposed to be good. So anyway, did anybody catch that later Tony character had a shakehand table tennis raquet instead of a penholder raquet. After I caught that, I was thinking to myself, NO WONDER the Tony and Takeshi character were playing pretty bad table tennis in that previous scene. Tony character was being too nice, playing Takeshi with a foreign style(penhold) as opposed to using his natural grip(shakehand). So you can play with beginner like that. Now I can go to bed soundly with this rationale. =)
