FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: The world's greatest action movie

Working title: JACKIE CHAN'S IKEA ADVENTURE
Gist of the movie: Jackie Chan. At IKEA.
Plotline: A corrupt CIA official plans on selling plans for a brand new, supersecret WMD to an Irish mobster. The drop point: An IKEA wastebasket, which Jackie Chan happens to pick up as one of many items on a new-apartment-shopping-spree with his girlfriend.

Insert 80 minutes of furniture-based thrashin' here.

END CREDITS: More inspired by Jackie Chan's American works, in which a good number of outtakes involve flubbed lines, the end credits sequence will consist of five to ten minutes of Jackie Chan attempting to read the names of various IKEA catalog items.

Sorry, no offense. I don't have anything against GAP, it's just that it's the one store with the most various outlets, (baby, kid, girls, guys, possibly some sort of pet GAP in the near future), so it was the most obvious choice for the joke. A&F is just creepy. I avoid bringing it up in conversation. Don't they sell shirts? Why don't any of their models wear them?

And no, they'd rather spend time talking about bad choices in celebrity marriage than any real tragedy. Especially if the person wasn't starring in any Jessica Simpson movies.

None taken. :-) Just stating my own preference. Actually, A&F have a bunch of subdivisions, too; they just don't brand it the way GAP does.

I did actually hear about Leslie Cheung's suicide from the mainstream press (well, mainstream entertainment press), even though I had originally thought it was some sort of twisted April Fool's joke. Sadly not. Still, that I didn't have to go to an HK movie aficiando website gives me some hope.
