The Jeff Lau Chun Wai directed film EAST MEETS WEST 2011 (DONG SING SAI JAU 2011) gathered several dozen stars in its cast.  Male lead Eason Chan Yik Shun in the film played a businessman.  Despite his shape dressed appearance his every move had a comedic flavor.  Female lead Karen Mok Man Wai looked cool like a sassy girlfriend.  Kenny Bee (Chung Chun To) who was in the original EAGLE SHOOTING HEROES (DONG SING SAI JAU) this time in EAST MEETS WEST 2011 continued his humorous and mischievous image.  although he no longer had the initial film's "boot in the head" look, he had a Bob head that looked like Watermelon Taro, floral print shirt and bell bottomed pants 80s retro look that remained rather funny.

EAST MEETS WEST 2011 had nothing to do with the previous film.  In it Eight Heavenly Gods due to a dispute were exiled to become a group of mortals and thus leading to a series of funny stories.  The star studded cast included Chan Yik Shun, Mok Man Wai, Chung Chun To, Dior Cheng Yi Kin, Huang Yi, Tan Weiwei, Jaycee Chan (Fong Cho Ming), Yang Mi, Jon Lee Chung Sing, William So Wing Hong, Stephy Tang Lai Yun and Alex Fong Lik Sun.  Many scenes were rather classic, in which Mok Man Wai and Chan Yik Shun had a John Woo (Ng Yu Sum) styled face off with thermometers, Fong Cho Ming stood behind Tan Weiwei with an evil grin and bad intention, and others.
