I love it how this Rogue Jedi carries on like he is a mad **** but really he likes shit movies too, because his avatar is Hot Fuzz. Seriously, have a think before you talk again.

MildPossession
Hot Fuzz isn't a shit film, it's bloody brilliant!

Bardock42
Yeah, Hot Fuzz is pretty damn hilarious.

quite honestly, most of the chinese movies are lack of imagination, it is partly because there are too many restrictions from the gov. when the movies are lack of imagination, it's boring.

but some Chinese films are funny, i like The Crazy Stones and the other one Togather (he ni zai yi qi) but i guess there is no english version,

and the HongKong movies are much better, there's a long list i like, esp. the movie of Stephen Chow;

i hate Horror movies, coz i live alone, it would scare me

i think for american movies, maybe around 200, and i have also seen a lot of chinese, Korean, Janpanese, and Hongkong movies;

don't understand why no body here say they like the other two, Patton and The legend of fall, i really love these two.

Dr Will Hatch
I like some of the films on your list. Patton is one of my favorite movies too. What are some good Chinese films besides Hong Kong films and Raise the red lantern?

I never said thr films I like are the best in American cinema, they are what I like, that's all. "I dont know art, but I know what I like."....

Here's a quick top 10 for you, off the top of my head....

1. Scarface: I like
2. No Country for old men: I like
3. Forrest Gump: Was OK
4. Pulp Fiction: I like
5. Gladiator: Loved it
6. Raging Bull: EPIC
7. Jaws: Loved it
8. Taxi Driver: Very weird
9. Platoon: Best war movie EVER
10. Fargo: Kooky but good

Maybe YOU should think before you talk.....Just saying. And Hot Fuzz is a great flick, as others here agree.

How about you calm down and quit talking shit about other members? Sound reasonable? Okay. Good.

I'm done with other people talking bad about one another in here. This goes for everyone. Next time is a warning.

Rogue Jedi
Well I just returned the favor, so I'll heed that warning too.

Impediment
Please do, sir. I appreciate it.

Dr Will Hatch
No flame wars? Aww. sad

Rogue Jedi
And I'd appreciate if you stop by and pick up your wife.



































ninja Dude you know I am kidding.




































No really, she aint here...........








































Stop pointing that gun at me.

Exactly, it's a free world and to each their own. He can like what he likes, and I can like what I like and you can like what you like. And I can say your movie likes are shit, and you mine, and he your's, and he mine, etc;

No need to tell me to "Stop and think." I DID stop and think, then I posted what I posted.

many of Chinese don't like Raise the red lantern....

and don't know if you like Kong-fu movies, Swordmen type,

the Hero,
Battle of Wits,
House of Flying Daggers;

but i heard some foreingers say wirefools to such kind of movies, the ators were hang on the wire and swing their swords....

most of the chinese movies can't make people think deep, well, the gov. does not like the people have their own independent thinking....

I agree with you about Chinese cinema in general, although there is a lot I like, like "The World" which was in 2005 I think.

That's a circular argument, friend. But really, you did start the shit flinging by telling the Oriental fellow his list blows (which it does, imo).
