My Collection of Asian Movies
Many of these movies are great; some are not. This is simply a list of what's in my dvd collection.
If you want to know what my Asian favorites are, see this list: http://www.imdb.com/list/bVsYXEtKuLg/
I made a note of the movies I have watched so I get less confused about it myself. Asian names are not always easy to remember. ;-)
Movies which are made together with a non-Asian country are also listed.
