ok, firstly...

its a top FIVE not a top 10

secondly, "its like a finger pointing away to the moon". misquoting bruce, even by one word, is shameful!

other than that, good selections. thank you!

"Don't get uptight with me man, cos if you do I'll give you a dose of medicine and if I medicined you, you'd think a brain-tumour was a birthday present." Please forgive me plan9 for my innacurate description of Bruce Lee's dialogue and for spouting 10 movies instead of 5, I promise not to do it again Big Grin

Enter the Dragon and anything else with Lee in walks this. crouching tiger sucks by the way! all that hype and its basically, well, rubbish. jumping buildings, important swords, crap ending. Waste of time watching it.
