"At ease was never that easy to me. I don't relax by parting my legs slightly and putting my hands behind my back. That does not equal ease. At ease is not being in the military. I am at ease, bro, because I am not in the military." - Mitch Hedberg

GPB as a chick flick?
Of course it is.
10 year school reunion, long lost romance, caring PA concerned about her boss's mental outlook and steering him in the right direction, true love in a wary sort of way, fathers giving their blessing, therapy sessions, questioning if it's love, or a new found respect for life.
And what has to be one of the best martial arts fights ever. None of that cod-Kung-Fu sterility and detachment Hollywood and TV uses to show fights, but without anyone actually getting hurt. ( eg Martial Law. All the cops do Kung-Fu, and so does every single bad guy. How many dojos can that city have?)
GPB is an ideal date movie, too. If the girl, or boy doesn't like it, you'd be better off binning them right away.

Everything there goes on my list. I figured putting 197 items on the post might get a little hard to slog through.
"We've gotta go to the crappy town where I'm a hero."
Now why didn't I think of doing that?
Here's mine, if anybody's interested http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.html?cat=1&id=needsalt

Wow - we sure do have similar tastes. I must say it's interesting to see all of the different cover art on Region 2 discs.

Yeah I know
They're not the only difference, usually the US versions have more extras... well it was until recently.
Not only did the international versions of Serenity have more extras (And different artwork), but Fox released 2 disc versions of films like I Robot, Day after tomorrow and Man on fire before the US. Its about time too
