I've not bought other than R1 DVDs in a while. I've been stocking up on Disney stuff for my daughter.

I'm feeling the itch again...

I know I need to get Ichi the Killer but I'm not sure what else to load up the order with.

Some info on my taste:

Loved Kill Bill (pure fun and beautifully shot)
Loved Crouching Tiger (despite what the old school haters say)
Loved The Matrix (disliked the sequels)
Loved Fong Sai Yuk I and II
Loved Hero
Loved Iron Monkey
Loved The Mission
Loved Drunken Master II (of course)
Loved Prodigal Son
Loved The Emperor and The Assasin
Loved Riki-Oh for what it is.
Loved Ashes of Time (I'm odd, I know)

Really liked Versus (for what it is)
Liked Dragon Inn
Liked The Killer and Hard Boiled
Liked A Hero Never Dies
Liked Shaolin Soccer
Liked Tai Chi Master


Here's my full collection

I loved the Once Upon a Time in China series... the historical setting actually added to the plot.

Thanks for the suggestions! I have a few of those (Mission, Infernal, Swordsman II, 36th Chamber, Bullet, Wing Chun).

I also think I'm gonna get Battle Royale.

I think I got overhyped for Chinese Ghost Story. I didn't really enjoy 1, and I heard it was the best of the three. OUATIC one was so-so, I enjoyed II a bit better.
