Here's a list of film I've watched on DVD this year that I've enjoyed, and all are non-Hollywood films, you can get them at www.yesasia.com but some are not Region 1 coded, so you either need an all region dvd player or you find a combination of commands for your current dvd player to make it all region - yes, that's possible, more info about dvd player stand alone info can be found at www.vcdhelp.com


- 2046, the lost memory (interesting twist movie - Korean, available at Hollywood Video)
- Kung Fu Hustle (no need to write anything here)
- New Police Story (Jackie Chan's latest, more drama than comedy based, soon to be released by Miramax in US)
- DragonBlade (HK animated movie)
- Ong Bak (Thai's film with Tony Jaa)
- Born to Fight (I believed this is Tony's 2nd)
- House of Fury (Stephen Fund's 2nd directorial film - produced by Jackie Chan's company)
