zimarra and I watched "Drunken Master" (1978), starring Jackie Chan. I am profoundly glad not to have noticed that we weren't renting Chan's "Legend of the Drunken Master" (1994) (which I have already enjoyed), because it turns out that the 1978 movie was directed and choreographed by Woo-ping Yuen (fight choreographer for "Kill Bill," "The Matrix" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"). It also stars Yuen's father Siu Tien Yuen, who kicks similar ass in "Jade Claw" (with action direction by Yuen's brothers). What a find!
Here's another recent highlight: Buying tons of half-price candy on February 15th.
