Is there anything like Shaolin Soccer?
Just saw this movie for the first time a few days ago and I just loved everything about it, the humor, the style, just a really entertaining movie. I plan to see Kung Fu Hustle when it comes to DVD because I know Chow directed it as well, but are there any other films you recommend for a similar taste as SS?

If you liked Hong Kong comedy, check out Mr. Vampire on Fox/Fortune Star. I bought this as a blind buy and just loved it. Hilarious and over-the-top action, could'nt stop myself laughing watching this. Highly recommend.

Go Region Free, every film fan should do so.

IMO, it's not nearly as good as SOCCER.

There's a thai movie called Sagai United that looks like an almost carbon-copy of Shaolin Soccer. It still looks pretty decent though, and I'll probably pick it up at some point. The official Thai release can be had for only $10.00 over at eThaiCD, and it actually has English subs.

god of cookery is great
kung fu hustle is his best in my opinion
there is this other hilarious film that is just insane...especially if your stoned. forgot what its called. citizen zero...something like that. ...something with zero in the title. its a korean high school comedy with martial arts.
its best to watch it with the awful english dubbing on and the subtitles because they seem to translate two different films!

Also, I think the movie you're thinking of is Conduct Zero.
