Man, that's a big list. I've only seen like 3 or 4 from that list.

May I suggest "Better Luck Tomorrow"? I saw it when it first came out in the theater and it was really good. It deals with a lot of Asian American issues.

That "the Motel" and another movie called "Journey from the fall" were all recommended to me recently via myspace..

I am guilty i download A lot from torrents and clubbox but I also religiously scan through ifc and sundance for the latest films

I also forgot to add 2046 and dragon boys to the watch list

Angelle I have seen about 80% of the movies on your list. But I am more into Martial Arts movies in their original Asian languages (with sub-titles of course). About 90% of the dvd's I own are Martial Arts movies.

ProAzn you remind me of Jennifer Aniston's character in Office Space. She loved kung-fu movies too
