fx martial arts drama downtown dragons gangs no guns

Downtown Dragons could kick butt in more ways than one!

After guns are outlawed in Chinatown, would-be gangsters must relearn crane kicks and karate chops of yesteryear while they battle one another for street supremacy!

FX just started rolling the ball on this new show which S. Craig Zahler is set to write and executive produce.

It's a wacky concept but we are completely confident that the network behind Justified and Sons of Anarchy will offer up a compelling glimpse into the Big Apple's sleazy, scary underworld.

We wonder whether the production team will recruit any big-time actors with a history of martial arts??

Jackie Chan perhaps? Or the glorious Lucy Liu?

Oooh, oooh! We we bet Ralph Macchio is still in game shape, LOLz!!

Miley Cyrus Insists Alcohol Is 'Way More Dangerous' Than Weed! Shares Her New Priorities As An Adult & Artist!

Perhaps Amanda Bynes would have been better off giving Miley Cyrus her bong!

The We Can’t Stop singer interviewed with Rolling Stone magazine for their July 4th issue, and revealed her fairly liberal thoughts on drugs and alcohol.

Given her stoner reputation, we’re not totally surprised. Though, when asked to clarify her penchant for weed, she said:

"You can't ask someone that and expect them to say yes... I did a song with Snoop Dogg called 'Ashtrays and Heartbreaks,' so people can put it together for themselves."

That sounds fairly straightforward to us. Mileybird then went ahead to state that she thinks there are things much, much worse than a little bit of the green stuff:

"I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana -- people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care... I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed."

She added:

"As long as it isn't illegal, there are far more dangerous things. And it's legal in the state of California. So I'm happy to live in California, a place where you can be whoever you want to be."

Well, Miley, marijuana isn’t exactly legal in California unless you have a prescription, so we’re not entirely sure what you mean. But, okay...

As for her transition from Disney teen idol to mature pop star, she said:
