Death Proof (2007)
All future action movie stars should begin their career as stuntmen/women. Zoe Bell sets the bar way, way high. I haven't seen the new Die Hard or the new Rush Hour but I'm sure neither Willis nor Chan goes for anything nearly as dangerous as Bell does here. I'm also sure Jackie totally would've done it back in the Police Story / Armour of God days. I need to dig out those ancient import VHSes, maybe the bro's got them around somewhere.

I watched all my early Jackie Chan VHS until they got worn out during all the action scenes.
We should do a movie marathon of all his flicks up until 'Drunken Master 2', excluding 'Crime Story'...
Man oh man, the bike chase in 'Project A' still gets me excited like a little kid...

I was amused by Jackie in "The New Policy Story" in which his cop character is a depressed drunk and Nicholas Tse's character tries to make him a good cop again.

Who's got Infernal Affairs? I need to watch it again b/c it's the new HK cinema cultural touchstone and the last time I saw it (after borrowing Ian's cc for, like, a YEAR), I was just like "ho hum another overplotted HK gangster movie."
