wht?

I'll rephrase.

"I never know why the English name of that film is Justice, My Foot"
"I'll tell you why, because the title "Justice, My Foot" is bloody funny!"

It's funny because it comes across gramatically wrong and possibly is an outdated way of saying something like "Justice? We don't have justice!" or "Justice? WHAT A LOAD OF OLD BOLLOCKS!" or possibly even: "Justice by foot", i.e, giving justice with your foot.

thank you thrashduck!

Shut up Paul.

...And I'm left picking up the pieces after Hurricane Lev..

I'll quickly mention Audition. Find out as little as you can about it before watching it - don't even find out the genre or read details. I reckon the less you know before watching the more effective the film. Going to watch Brotherhood tomorrow - Korean War film.

Really enjoyed Network recently as well. Great film about the media. "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!"

Brotherhood looks really good, I remember seeing the DVD in HMV in Leeds a couple of years ago, and thinking "I'd bloody well love to see that". I'll pop it on my rental list, lovefilm.com is bloody great!

i know its in the videos thread already but sod it,its going here too....


(MY YOUTUBE NOTES:)
since the age of 12/13yrs old i started collecting jackie chan films on vhs around 1995/96 with my hard earned paper round money.then a year or 2 later "dvd" became the format of the future.as you can see from the entire first row on the clip i eventually updated and expanded my jackie collection.this also got me into hong kong cinema in general and over the years the kung fu/chinese movie collection developed.
i still love so many other genres:manga/sci-fi/zombies-horror/carto ons/brit flicks/gangster/hoodmovies/tv series etc etc.to name a few.

the best part of my collection is the 120 shaw brothers studios movies from china(all on the black shelving) which cover kung fu/swordplay/drama/musicals/huangmei opera and contemporary.
760 of the finest shaws movies which ran from 1950s to 1985(the year it ceased production although its a t.v studio these days)have at last been restored immaculately for dvd since 2003-2007 by celestial pictures.theyve done a superb job considering these films were locked in vaults/stored away.not until 2003+could westeners get such an opportunity to see such great pieces of woundrous chinese cinema.(there were limited cinema showings in the 70s during the bruce lee kung fu craze and a handful of bootleg or limited release vhs tapes circulating in the 80s)i could go on all day about this section but its easier if you google search/youtube search shaw brothers to find out more on these amazing classics.

also moviesuper.com is an official dedicated site selling these historic masterpieces.

check it out!

Shit.

Bloody hell Rik, you've every DVD in the world. And you've got Shaolin Soccer, tell everyone how amazing it is!

everyone:shaolin soccer IS amazing!!!

also John,if you liked that you will love dragon tiger gate starring donnie yen.its an adaptation of a famous chinese comic book series.
it uses plenty of special effects which enhance the action rather than spoil it.a perfect blend and balance of cgi,wireworkand real martial arts action.


also check out SPL(aka sha po lang)starring donnie yen,simon yam and sammo hung as a badass gangster boss(he is in his mid/late 50s you know!).
another modern masterpiece,with cool characters and a triad plot.

Having all the Bottom DVDs lends credibility to your collection.

Rik you really dig hk movies!!!

well well well
SPL, I dont like it
I dont like donnie yen's flashy style
too unreal

I love old, real true kung fu fighting scene in Chang Cheh films
anyway, it's just persoanlly favour

Has anyone seen the movie Gojoe, it based on Japanese folklore about the Gojo Bridge
