You're English, but of Asian descent, right?
No, I'm English, of Italian/British (Welsh) descent and some other mongrel. Basically I lived in Japan for ~1 year in my early 20s, so I have an interest in some things Japanese. I think Alen is basically to blame for calling me Japanese.

God this story is fucking boring now, not your fault though.

Back on topic:

You guys should watch The Raid 2. I'm not the type of person to watch brainless action, but if you're going to watch one movie in that category this year, The Raid 2 will very likely be the one to watch. I've rarely seen better action than here. Bloodier, crazier and more creative action scenes than what I have seen in quite a while.

Just looked at the back story to this franchise, very interesting. A Welsh film director who ends up in Indonesia, picking random people with martial art training as martial art movie actors. Sounds real.

the raid: redemption, the first movie was insanely good. probably the best choreaographed fight scenes in existance. i don't know how they can top it, but can't wait for raid 2

The main actor can't act for nuts though. Seriously good action scenes regardless.
yeah but sometimes i don't want to watch good acting. To me entertainment is more that good acting. sometimes i just want to watch stunts and action that remind of old jackie chan and van damme movies that i grew up watching.
