How crazy are asian movies??!?! I watched "Vocano High" and it was so crazy! Cool, awesome, but still crazy. And then there are Chinese seriels. Some of them are just whacked. Don't get me, wrong, I'm Chinese and I do like a lot of Chinses serials, but some are just crazy. What are some that you think are good/bad/annoying/crazy etc? Asian films and serials, that is?

You mean series right? Serials is something completely else.

Unfortunately, other than Anime, my experience with Asian movies is limited mainly to a precious few Akira Kurusawa films (cinematic Nectar-of-the-Gods as far as I&#39;m concerned&#33;), the Toho Studios "Monsters on Parade" collection (Godzilla, Mothra, Gamera, Rodan, etc.), and more chop-sockie Martial Arts flicks than I care to think about... <_<

I wish I&#39;d had a broader education on Asian cultures when I was a kid, but it just never dawned on me when I was young that I would become so fascinated with Anime later in life. (I always was a "live for the moment" kind of guy...)
