Keep your friends close and your elephants closer for today's exciting episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! Our Animaysterpiece event continues with 2005's Tom-Yum-Goong (released in the United States as The Protector). Tony Jaa stars as Kham, a young martial artist descended from the ancient fighters who once protected the King's War Elephants. One day, Kham's elephants Por Yai and Korn are kidnapped by poachers and taken to Sydney, Australia. Kham travels to Sydney and discovers that his elephants have been taken by Madame Rose, a rising crime boss in the midst of consolidating her power. He teams up with Mark, a local Thai-Australian police officer, in order to face Madame Rose and her network of cronies. Chief amongst those cronies are Johnny, a vicious Vietnamese gangster, and Vincent, a corrupt Australian police inspector. Kham's skills as a Muay Thai warrior will be put to the test as he fights his way through legions of henchmen, assassins, and giant grapplers to reach Madame Rose and save his friends. Pack some mangoes, hide your pangolins, and protect your tendons for today's elephantine installment of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!
