REVIEW: Eye in the Sky (2007) A crew of armed robbers undertake a series of meticulously planned jewel heists, led by the anonymous “Hollow Man” (Tony Leung Ka-Fai). At the same time an under-confident recruit, code-named Piggy (Kate Tsui), is inducted into one of Hong Kong’s police surveillance units under the tutelage of team leader Dog Head (Simon Yam). As the surveillance team begins to track the robbers, Piggy’s resolve and talent is sorely tested. Eye in the Sky is a 2007 procedural thriller produced and set in Hong Kong. It is produced by Johnnie To’s acclaimed Milkyway Image production company, which automatically brings with it a certain aesthetic and tone. This consistency is not a surprise, since Eye in the Sky marks the directorial debut of Yau Nai-Hoi – the screenwriter who wrote or co-wrote many of To’s own films.

  • Displeasure, Star-Chasing and the Transcultural Networking Fandom
    . Volume 10, Issue 2 November 2013 Displeasure, star-chasing and the transcultural networking fandom Egret Lulu Zhou The Chinese University, Hong Kong Abstract: Pleasure and its politics have been overemphasised in audience studies for many years. To delineate a more well-balanced picture of everyday-life consumption practices by fans, this paper aims to directly study the experiences of displeasure using a case study of star- chasing fans of Hong Kong television stars in Mainland China. In this paper, displeasure is defined and analysed culturally rather than psychoanalytically. Seven years of auto- ethnographic experience and seventeen in-depth interviews are the sources used in this qualitative study. Drawing on Castells’ ‘network society’ thesis, displeasure is identified by mapping out the power relations within transcultural fan communities, in which the traditional industry/fan dichotomy is replaced by multiple social players. Displeasure occurs in tandem with pleasure; thus, the fan identities in this case are constantly negotiated, reshaped and even discarded. Keywords: displeasure, star-chasing, networking, transcultural. Introduction Popular culture studies appear to be inextricably intertwined with the politics of pleasure. This type of research can be roughly categorised into two traditions. The first is ‘Pleasure is bad; it makes people passive and dull’. Cultural scholars who subscribed to this belief looked down on mass culture and often treated audiences as ‘cultural dopes’ because they indulge in the consumption of pleasure; most of the Frankfurt School theorists are exemplars of this tradition. The spectatorship studies of the British Screen journal also generally degraded popular pleasure. For instance, Mulvey (1975) proposed the ‘destruction of pleasure as a radical weapon’ in criticising mainstream Hollywood narrative movies.
