===2001–2007: Decline in Hollywood and other ventures===
Woo made two additional films in Hollywood: ''[[Windtalkers]]'' (2002) and ''[[Paycheck (film)|Paycheck]]'' (2003), both of which fared poorly at the box office and were summarily dismissed by critics. Also in 2003, Woo directed a television pilot entitled ''The Robinsons: Lost in Space'' for The WB Television Network, based on the 1960s television series ''[[Lost in Space]]''. The pilot was not purchased.

Woo also directed and produced the 2007 video game ''[[Stranglehold (video game)|Stranglehold]]'', which is a sequel to his 1992 film, ''[[Hard Boiled]]''. The game features Woo as a multiplayer playable character. That same year he produced the [[anime]] movie, ''[[Appleseed: Ex Machina]]'', the sequel to [[Shinji Aramaki]]'s [[2004 in film|2004 film]] ''[[Appleseed (2004 film)|Appleseed]]''.<ref>Kelly, Kevin (17 December 2007).
