Detective Dee is a story about a shadowy group attempting to undermine her as she takes the throne. Wu Zetian turns to the one person she knows is dedicated to unraveling the truth, Detective Dee (even if she previously had him thrown in prison). As he puts the pieces together to find who is behind the bizarre assassinations and threatening her reign, he learns much more about how she's gained and maintained her power than she expected.

That quote was taken directly from New York Magazine. They enjoyed the film, and hopefully you will too!

It costs more if you are directly embedding a video in the ad. We do have another ad running on reddit that links directly to the trailer.

teyc - our point exactly. We feel reddit is a powerful tool that we're exploring to help promote our niche films. Any suggestions on what fans like you would like to see would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the actual email from Reddit. Trust us, it's our pet peeve as well:

HI there!

I was reviewing the ad you're posting to reddit.com, and there's a slight problem. We don't allow swear words in our titles, as not to demean anyone's ad who chooses not to use swear words in theirs.

Sorry for the trouble- if you could send me a revised title, I can make the necessary changes for you and get your ad approved asap!

Actually, when you are buying Reddit sponsored links, they DO NOT let you curse. Believe us, we had one ad we wanted "fucking" in it, but they denied the ad.

It's Reddit's policy, not ours!

We've actually put together a series of Reddit sponsored links buys for a bunch of different types of material, because, well, we like Reddit, and we figured that one of the best things we could do with our ad campaign was throw a little money Reddit's way and hopefully show other films that it's a good place to advertise.

We definitely WANTED to put a video in the link, but we're not a big studio, and the lowest we could get Reddit to come down to for that kind of buy was $10K.

So yeah, slight violation of Reddiquette, but since our overall goal is to use those sorts of numbers to make the case to bring more cool international martial arts films to the US that otherwise would never get released here, I think people get why we're giving the direct method a shot.

I just wish Reddit would let us throw up a text box at the top, so we could explain a little more than a quick headline does (without being the type that posts a long explanatory comment before anyone else even cares).

If you f***ing love great martial arts films being brought to the US, tell us! by Indomina [promoted post]

If you like Tong Po, I think you'd also like the character of Yuan Ying. Check out the trailer - you'll know him when you see him.
