Re: The MoFo Top 100 Action Movie Countdown

Terminator 2 is way better than Diehard. I watched Diehard and found myself really disappointed with it, it's a fine movie but nothing super special.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 Action Movie Countdown

I always felt that King Kong (2005) and Guardians of the Galaxy are not action movies but adventure movies. But anyway, the borderline between action and not is not clear.

Well, they are full of action scenes. Princess Mononoke is pretty brutal and Miyazaki regards it as action movie.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 Action Movie Countdown

I voted for Drive, unlike abstract arthouse masterpieces such as Commando and Rambo 4, Drive is a pure action flick.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 Action Movie Countdown

There are no animated action films made in the West. Actually I don't know any animated action movies made outside of Japan.
