I know about Reservoir Dogs, not about Resident Evil ;D Bah... I've watched so many zombie films in this past two weeks I guess they have clouded my mind... lol ;D Sukutsuto: That sounds like Drunken Master 2... you mean the one in the factory where Jackie crawls across hot coals right? That was from the 90's and was released later on for the US audience redubbed and cut, with the title "Legend of Drunken Master" I think. Great film, and still contains the best fight scene ever, in terms of stunts and amazing choreography. It was probably the last TRULY amazing thing Jackie did imho. The original 1979 DM is still cool though... the old guy and also Hwang Jang Lee (the main bad guy) are awesome, and it was the second movie that really put Jackie on the map  Useless trivia time - the old guys rock partly because he fathered a son who went on to be the action director for films like the Matrix and Kill Bill: Yuen Woo Ping ;D And yeah, I am a big CYF fan... surprised you didn't see the CYF God of Gamblers avatar I had a while back  Kaz |

also shawshank redemption is excellent. 1 I know, but I could only pick five.  It's the best one out of Stephen King's Four Seasons, and one of those rare occasions where a movie outshines the book it's based on. |

Ahh... you like that ol' Soft core anime porn. ;D (j/k) Anyways, i like tarantino's stuff generally. (I know its popular but for some reason Reservior Dogs is my least fav. movie of his  ) Like most of the world i think the star wars series was badass. My top five films would mostly consist of comedy's though cause i get the most good times & rewatch value out of them but i couldn't even start to name my favs. cause there are so many. Btw, Ukyo, i noticed you mentioned Dune. Really good stuff there  |

1. Enter the Dragon 2. City of Gods (a brazillian flick) 3. Legend of the Drunken Master (Jackie Chan flick) 4. 13th Warrior 5. Hardboiled (a chow yun fat flick where every guy has loads of guns!!) with the exception of City of Gods (which is a true story type of movie), all my faves are filled with great action and a very high badassednesses factor, proving i'm an action movie junkie  what would go wrong with a Bruce Lee, CYF and Jackie Chan movie anyway? |

damnnit i miss the Star Mandarin channel in cable! that channel has all the coolest HK flicks especially Jackie Chan, Chow Yun Fat, Stephen Chow and Sammo Hung flicks! coz of my grandpa's sucky cable subscription, i'm stuck watching "reality" channels and other channels not worth mentioning! btw, CYF is uber cool, especially in God of Gamblers and Hardboiled! Sammo you say? Sammo Hung & Yuen Biao in Prodigal Son... another one of the best movies of all time! Gotta love the old classic Yuen Biao/Sammo/Jackie movies of years ago. Man, I really wish those three would settle whatever differences they might still have and make another kick ass Kung-Fu flick. They did fall out at one stage but I think Sammo and Jackie patched things up because they did Mr Nice Guy Together a few years back... so you never know. Would be great anyway, and afaik Yuen Biao can still bust a move with the best of them. Been so long since we heard from him though. Kaz |
