Get a load of this skit.... It might not be Chinese theater, but it's damn cool!
(Over 3 minutes long, so it'll take a few moments to start.)

Just watched it, very cool
But I'm thinking there could be short Chinese people in robot suits :P It would be interesting to see breakdancing robots!

I thought it was fake at first, but I've shown this (multiple times) to a few friends who have degrees in physical therapy and the like... the concensus is that the movements are too abrupt and deliberate to be humans.
Kye-U, if you want to see the best robot dancing ever, check out these:

In fact, that's exactly how the dancing style got its name - white people thought the dancer's would break something for sure. [no guffaw]
But yes, in principal, CGI could have been used to make all this happen. Doesn't reduce the cool factor, though.
Just finished viewing those two dancers - oh man, to be young again, so that I could once again move like that! [rolleyes] [lol] Cool! More, please!
