If you've watched or are going to watch a film today, tell us what it was/is going to be.
Go on.

He is a director - of choreography. Ack, nevermind.

Anyway, I grow weary and need food. We shall debate again sometime.

Perhaps on the subject of "Rocky", an all too often underrated masterpiece!

it'll mean "action director" which is a choreographer. Still, suppose its kind of a director. Trust me - I know my Woo Ping!

Then explain to me what I'm missing?

You admitted the plots were indeed weak, thus if I'm not watching for the weak plot, I'm left with very little to watch but the "action" which, while grounded in realsim, seeks to massage Mr. Lee's ego rather than provide me with entertainment. His films aren't bad as such, they just don't adhere to the ideals I look for in a kung fu film.
