I love chinese movies as well. They have some of the best fight choreography & rope work.
It's like a dance. I'm a sucker for pretty much any genre, as long as there is production value to it.
There is a French director I'm sooo waiting to see. I saw his debut short and it was remarkable, I can't believe some studio hasn't snapped him up already. He did a 60 minute short about a paranoid guy who ends up in an insane asylum. In the end, it turns out he was right all along. He zooms in on the fly that had been the object of this poor guy's obsession, ...and as the camera gets closer & closer, ...we see in the final shot, that the fly is actually not a real fly, ...but a mechanical one manufactured by the CIA. It was BRILLIANT! I couldn't believe it was the debut work of a student film maker. It looked like it had a multimillion dollar hollywood budget behind it.
For those of you who like tear jerkers, you have to get a DVD copy of Nicholas Nickleby and a box of kleenex. I swear that movie will take you through every single emotion possible, ...and in the end, you will just be spent.
