A JOKER'S CARD

A JOKER'S CARD-From Director Johnny K. Wu and MDI Films comes this entertaining short film which pokes fun at some of the heroes and villains in the DC Comics Universe. The plot has Jonathan Napier(The Son of The Joker) joining up with Dr. Vince Fries (Son of Mr. Freeze) to try and eliminate the Superhero population. Napier demands vengeance for His years of torment growing up and for His father being locked up in Arkham for most of His childhood. Fries (played by David J. Levy) takes Napier(played by Kyle Znamenak) under His wing and with the help of a local crime Boss named Mr. Big (played by Gerry Keating) They assemble a team of goons and go looking for the offspring of their sworn enemies. Nick Grayson (son of Dick Grayson AKA Nightwing) is kidnapped and brought to the criminals secret hideout. Next Fries and Napier's gang track down Ellen (Daughter of Wonder Woman) who refuses to go down without a fight and escapes. After tracking down Grayson's location Ellen arives to save the day but finds an army of Baddies waiting for Her.However, Ellen will not be alone in this fight thanks to the assistance of Nightwing (played by Andrew Schofield) Check out the ending of this puppy Yourself for the battle Royale featuring of all things, Wire-Fu! There are many things that make this film so great, from the perfect casting, to the impressive display of Martial Arts (choreographed by Johhny K. Wu Himself!) this is one short You don't want to miss! I admire Mr. Wu for making the offspring of the Heroes "real people" rather than starchy clones of their Comic Hero predecessors. This film is also very humorous, even poking fun of itself at certain points. While this film should prove entertaining to all, Comic Book Fans will definitely get the biggest kick out of it.
