The best-laid plans of kung-fu masters and princesses

Ad Nut likes these two short films from HSBC and Saatchi & Saatchi, where life twists in interesting and ultimately satisfying ways. 

Ad Nut is even willing to forgive the fact that the film above, which is about kung-fu and is made for a company with "Hong Kong" in its very name, and which in certain shots looks like it was filmed in Hong Kong, was apparently produced exclusively in the UK (at least according to the credits Ad Nut was provided).
