F.O. Row Peter Puffer, You Left Off...Shit year, relatively speaking. Gladiator was really good, but this is a year I'll actually go with a comedy. High Fidelity and Snatch are both way-up-there for me, but Me, Myself & Irene is comic gold. Funniest Jim Carey movie, IMO.
Gladiator was great, but not, say, Shawshank great. -
F.O. Row Peter Puffer, You Left Off...“Gladiator” is amazing, and I don’t begrudge it winning the Oscar for best picture, but “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, which took home the best foreign film prize, was truly groundbreaking.
It leveled up the martial arts / wuxia genre into an art form and popularized the genre in the West. -
GladiatorDid it though? Has Wuxia ever caught on here? I wish it did. Fantastic movie.

SnatchYou like dags?

GladiatorGladiator is a mans movie but the plane crash in Castaway was actually pretty intense in the movie theater

GladiatorI went with Gladiator because it made me want to gut Commodus like a fish so fucking bad I could taste it. I know some of you think that may be an everyday occurrence for me, but it isn't.
And the opening war scene and the gladiator battles? Epic. -

It did for a bit. “Hero” and “House of Flying Daggers” were released in mainstream theaters, IIRC.Gladstone said:Did it though? Has Wuxia ever caught on here? I wish it did. Fantastic movie.
But you’re making a good point, the momentum died off. -
