Well yea, its worth some brownie points, but being brought up with every other movie being this super-fighting-roof-hopping-hadukening (?) shit, I don't really care much for it anymore.

You cannot believe how mundane "Hero" and "Crouching Dragon" and the such really is to us, the only difference that sets these different from all the other ones in HK/China is the advertisement efforts. Yet these become Oscar winning/nominated films...

Speaking of Asian movies in the US market...has anyone seen the Infernal Affairs series?

SPOILERS ------
What about the K-horror with the two sisters (can't believe I forgot the name)? It's basically about one "sister" lost her younger sister and mom at the same time and became severely traumatized. Her mental condition makes her "become" their stepmom, and she repeatedly reenacts the scene where her stepmom "kills" her younger sister. This is a must watch!! The cinematography is amazing and the story is just killer (uncover the complex twists and you'll know why I have quotes around some of the words up there).
If you guys are interested I'll dig up the name and previews of it and I'll update asap.
