i liked the part where the hero died and then came back to life and stuff, and i had no idea what was going on.. when the heck did he acquire a 1up? i had to search google to find out that the entire death ordeal was.. an illusion? im still confused really
maybe i missed something in ong bak 2.. i havent seen that one
I can't resist posting my own list:
Martial arts:
- Enter The Dragon
- The Prodigal Son
- Police Story (or basically any Jackie Chan movie from that era. Jackie Chan is my hero!)
Pure adrenaline/action:
Robocop (I re-watched it fairly recently and I was still amazed at how many bloodbags they get through in that film!)
- Westworld
- Predator
Cheesy but great fun:
- Running Man (cheesy as hell, best/worst one-liners ever "What happened to Buzzsaw?" "HE HAD TO SPLIT")
- Live and Let Die (uber cheesy Bond movie - Roger Moore using alligators as stepping stones across water? Check!)
Cheesy for me would be early 80's Flash Gordon love that movie
Guyver was dope, but the anime was even better.
Gone in 60 seconds remake with Cage
Wheels on meals (jackie chan)
All the police storys (jackie chan)

Modern action flicks? There are so many, and they are so good, uhm.. Avatar. Aliens.
