I never realized some of you even got into foreign flicks but I know Korean movies very well since I am one. Old boy was just one of those smash-hit success films that made it overseas as a pioneer over of other successful Korean flicks. Many are just as good or BETTER actually, but never really made it overseas. But I don't believe that it doesn't mean it's a shit movie... I have tons more like it if you guys are into some of these freaky Korean flicks. There are oh so so so many more out now than just Old boy which is an old-ass movie now (year 2000-ish?) but I've enjoyed watching Old boy a lot in the past. Multiple times lol. Showed it to some of my white friends and they found it hilarious/'entertaning. Let me know if you wanna check out more Korean movies guys.
P.S. anton should probably know a bit as well, as Korea is located just north of the same timezone line as AUS is at, and quite a bit of Koreans settle in Sydney and area (although nowhere near as heavy as L.A./Toronto etc) My aunt's family's been in Sydney since the late 1980's and never looked back.

Common's character is excellent.

Agreed. I was hoping Ted Levine's character would last a little longer though ... put the fucking lotion in the basket!! lol
Shit's going to get even crazier come next Sunday when the Finale is on.
Did you hear they got signed on for a couple of more seasons (one more for sure)? Brings a smile to my face!

I dont know if any of you guys saw the "World War II in HD" series that the History channel put together... If you did and you enjoyed it, they just started a "Vietnam in HD" series this past Monday. I have the first episode taped on the PVR and have yet to watch it except for the brief intro. Based off the intro, looks off the hook. Michael C. Hall is doing the narrating too for all you dexter fans.
