Transporter 2: Russian girl makes Statham strip before she'll give him the keys to the car. Then she demands a kiss. Then a better one.
That was 3. I know this because I saw it on cable yesterday.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Yeah, and I saw 2 and I didn't see that scene at all.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That is unparalleled filmmaking, and Statham is a master thespian.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I finally scored a copy of Funeral Parade of Roses a loose adaptation of Oedipus Rex among the late sixties Japanese gay underground (mostly transgender). It's gorgeous, playful, influenced by pop art and Godard. It's a huge acknowledged influence by Kubrick on Clockwork Orange. A genuine masterpiece that's largely gone unseen and unknown. There's an excellent review here, with many shots from the film.
More fantastic images from it here.
