1) Crouching Tigers. Stunning special-effects-enhanced martial arts scenes(*), an epic plot revolving around a legendary sword, and *gasp* good enough roleplaying to make a dent at the Oscars next year. Omit this film again, and I will sweep the leg (***). (*) Think Channel 9 Sunday afternoon Kung Fu theater(**), only done by the people who did The Matrix. (**) Yeah. Like I'm the only one who watched that religiously. WWOR, baby. Sometimes, they'd even run some serious Godzilla action right after. -Extra- tinfoil on the basement TV antenna for that. (***) Bonus points if you could not suppress the urge to say "But Sensei, I can take him!" (****) (****) Speaking of that, go read Nepenthe's Karate Kid post again, Grasshopper.(http://carrion.gameshadow.com/cforum/messages/32114.html) *nods wisely* The Tao of CF, that. (*****) I like footnotes.
2) Hidden Dragons.
