Oh, also, Karkash, that list is too long and encourages skimming =p

I really recommend Hot Fuzz, though. They did Shaun of the Dead too, but I liked Hot Fuzz a lot better.

Yes Indiana Jones is ++, but it was already listed, so =) I don't care much for the lady in "Temple of Doom" though, but Shorty is awesome.
