My top 5 favorite action movies ...

and yes I chose Road Warrior over the more obvious Lethal Weapon ...Also Predator over T2 and Conan 

 

No Seagal? I kid but I enjoyed those movies up until, and including, Under Siege. I think Out for Justice is my favorite due to the villain (William Forsythe), who is excellent in the role.

I saw a comedian once talk about those Seagal movies...the title is exactly what you get in the movie. And very little other than that. He is a joke now but those movies were raw and rough and a lot of fun.

A classic animé?ninja scroll,appleseed 2004,spirited away.

we are working our way, slowly, through the Miyazaki movies. They are so well done.

how about Akira? Saw in on the big screen in about 1997 and was a bit high at the time. Well, maybe quite a bit high. The visual and sonic experience was amazing.

I was always more of a Van Damme guy than Seagal...

The Karl Urban Judge Dredd remake ( much better than Stallone's version) was clearly based on this ( a very wise move too)

This movie blew my mind - no stop action and one of the best 2/1 fight scenes I’ve ever seen ... nice to know these guys have finally branched over to US films ( and a small cameo in Force Awakens )

I actually have been trying to get Sony, VUDU and Movies Anywhere to post the English version of The Raid via digital as you can only get this on DVD or bluray. Just like Kung Fu Hustle (another Sony property). Another reason to not go 100% digital for now.

I was so excited to watch these with my girls...when the oldest was about 5 I bought a few and tossed one on. The characters head came of his shoulders and rolled around, out the door and away it goes. (spirited away but maybe Howl) She freaked and that was the end of those for about 10 years!

My youngest freaked out at John carter of Mars...the bad lady gets torn in half in silhouette, good crunchy sounds and everything, and I said something like "thats the end of her", my girl realized what she saw and screamed. She later told me it wasn't until I said something that she put it together.

My dad took me to see this in the theater. It is so awesome and weird and has a one hell of a cast! I still have my Marvel Comics adaptation stashed away too. :cloud9:

If someone hasn't seen this at least once, you're missing out.

Unconfuse yourself @Namtak :foryou: :baiting:
