Well since over the Holidays my computer connection went from no wireless to no nothing, your movie list will have to be more of a must see in the New Year as opposed to vacation viewing. Since I have a serious love of Kung-Fu I was going to categorize all the recommendations but heck you guys can figure it out! so here they are in no particular order:
Fist of legend – Jet Li
Drunken Master- the original with Jackie Chan before he started doing stuff like Around the World in 80 days
Ong Bak- it will renew your love for Kung-Fu- Tony Jaa is insane.
Donnie Darko- if you loved 80s movies (John Hughes only please) you will dig this totally weird movie.
True Romance- don’t be fooled by the title; it's witty, violent and best of all has Gary Oldman who can pretty much do no wrong. I mean the guy played Beethoven and Sid Vicious. Range anyone?
Taxi- the original French one. If you have not yet seen this you are truly missing out. Especially if you like cars. Cool ass cars.
Millers Crossing-First of all it is Coen Brothers so that alone should sell you but also has bar-none the best quotable lines like: "Take your flunky and dangle."
Ghost Dog- Director/Writer Jim Jarmusch is definitely not for everyone but if you like RZA the soundtrack alone will blow your mind and the movie is damn cool.
Down By Law-Another Jarmusch masterpiece- Tom Waits and Roberto Benigni in one of the funniest films I have ever seen.
Rushmore-Wes Anderson is also hit or miss with most people but if you want something different, sweet and funny check it out!
Sexy Beast- Great gangster flick- Ben Kingsley most intimidating tiny gangster.
Top Gun- I'm sorry I have to include it on every list. Know it by heart- I used to want to fly fighter jets and did 3 years of Air Cadets. Also my cousin is a pilot and sent me THIS

Feel free to add to the list!!! And now time to get back to sports.
