Top 3 movie ever IMO... and the Hollywood remake was to be directed by Will Smith; not star him... that's what I was told. Also, as far as I know; it's still going ahead.

I have over 1000 Japanese, Korean and Chinese movies and Oldboy is one of the best.
A Dirty Carnival is a good movie, it is no "old boy" but is great if you are getting into asian movies.
Rough Cut is another one that shouldn't be missed
I could give asian movie recommendations all day.- Thanx - I'll check these outRW
- over 1k? jesus dude, can I drop by and borrow a few?zenmasterfoo
- I have them all backed up to hard drives.DrBombay

Good point Pizza but there are some few sites where you can buy directly from asia. They tend release regional version for asia (including english).

Oh please, Old Boy isn't THAT messed up.
All it is is that a guy is fucking his sister in high school and "Old Boy" finds out and does something that makes the sister commit suicide so the brother takes "vengeance" by locking up Old Boy for 25 years
Then when Old Boy comes out he looks for vengeance from THAT brother, but falls for the brother plot to make Old Boy fuck his own daughter which at the time he didn't know existed.
And the brother shoots himself in the head at the end when the intricate vengeance is complete.
It's not THAT fucked up.
Cool slick directing style/acting sequences tho. I believe it's a Korean film in the style of Japanese film.
peace

Basically, if you think incest is fucked up, you'll find Old Boy fucked up. It's nothing worse than that.

Yeah watching a guy pull out someones teeth with a hammer and eating a live octopus isnt messed up at all or hard for anyone to watch.
- aww. They did something similar in Marathon man. And "A Fish Called Wanda"Khurram
- sensitive prick. LOLKhurram
- Im not sensitive, I watched it with no problems. Im saying there are many ppl that cant watch that stuff genius.CygnusZero4

And honestly, what do you care where I got them from?
– DrBombayJust curious because most people tends to just download movies. And I really hate to see korean movie industry end up being what happened to HK industry.
No one wanted to invest in movies anymore because they know that a movie will just be out on the street with in hours of premiering it. The actors in HK are either making movies in China or doing TV shows. If there are movies done, they tend to be bubble gum crap that they know can make a lot money in a short run to counter balance the pirated time frame.
Few guys I know in HK are only doing commercials and product placement. They say that no one wants to take a chance on a good script.
