I just saw "Bulletproof Monk." Chow Yun Fat is so cool.

Seann William Scott seems like a righteous dude, too, a fact I wouldn't have necessarily gleaned from his work in the American Pie ouevre.

Fun film, comic-booky and escapist. I liked. And Chow Yun Fat really is The Man.

1. Seann William Scott

Actually sensitive, intellectual and totally focussed on his acting. On the "Dude, Where's my car" DVD commentary, both him and Kutcher were drunk, so that doesn't count.

He's actually nothing like Stifler and bristles at the presumption.

2. I liked ...

...Jamie King better than SWS.

But Chow Yun Fat ruled that movie.

7. Yes, he is

I'm just sayin', platonically, in conjunction with much spitting, crotch-grabbing (my own), and mentioning of football teams...

10. If you haven't seen them, track down "Hard Boiled" (best action film ever)

"The Killer", "A Better Tomorrow" (1 and 2; haven't seen 3 but it's not supposed to be much cop & John Woo's not involved) and "Once a Thief" - all John Woo films and IMO in order of best first. Also check out "Full Contact", which is a Ringo Lam film where Chow Yun-Fat plays the bad guy and does very cool things with a butterfly knife.

15. speaking of both Chow Yun Fat and Ringo Lam try "Ring Of Fire"

I think that's what it's called. A great movie.

17. yes, typo, that's what I meant

I wonder why the hell I typed that, I was just looking at the title right before that.

Yeah, that one, it's so similar to Reservoir Dogs that a lot of people think Tarantino straight plagiarized the film, haha.
