####All these Western countries except Iceland have high immigration rates which indicate that immigrants are not a liablity at all.####

They haven’t reached critical mass yet. Check out this website:

Actually about 10% of the Norwegian population are recent immigrants. Minorities mean mostly Sami (Laplanders). Check out Wikipedia. Icelanders are descendants of scandanavians and their Irish slaves and they pretty much constitute 100% of the population.

I share your concern about Moslem immigration. Look at what is happening in Paris even recently.

Dude, would be great if you include ONG BAK, Audition, bird people of China and Ichi the killer to your fantastic list !

Thanks! Those are all great movies, but I worry about adding some of them given that this is a conservative site! I did add Oldboy with a cautionary warning. Ichi the Killer and Audition might be too much. LOL! But, yeah, they are great if you like over-the-top films. Ong Bak is a trip, that's for sure. I could probably add it. The Bird People in China could be added. It's beautiful (well, other than the scene where the Yakuza guy gets sick) and something really different from Miike. The location photography is off-the-charts and the ending is awesome! Congratuations on being familiar with that film. Even a lot of people who know Miike's work aren't familiar with that one! Have you seen Happiness of the Katakuris?

Maybe I could add a "special warning" section for films like Save the Green Planet and the ones you listed!
