No endless high speed car chases

No CGI

No unrealistic fights where the loser should have gotten knocked out 50 kicks and punches before it ended

No cheesy one liners throughout the entire movie

The gangsters couldn't curve bullets

Not ONE single glittering vampire or werewolf who morphs when he's angry, not during a full moon.

The lead role wasn't a female who bruce lee's her way though every gang member she comes in contact with

Lead character doesn't play limbo with bullets in slow motion

I'm too lazy to read subtitles, it should have been shot in English

Again, NO CGI!

The main reason, which I would think is pretty obvious, is because it is not an American film, and never appeared on the big screen here.

I once shot a man in Reno just to watch him heal

Drug dealers don't have any cellphones, not even pagers!? retarded.

No homosexuality or penises depicted. And they call this 'Artistic'? The gall!

MTV camerawork, but no MTV music? Lame.

'Rocket' never goes in the water. Pussy!

Ginger kid is never shown with a sunburn. Totally unbelievable!

If these events were true, how come we never saw it on Fox News? Fake!

'Shaggy' was OBVIOUSLY their low-budget Brad Pitt look-alike. shameful.

Story takes place over many years and many seasons and we never see snow!? Ridiculous!!!

When 'Shorty' beats his wife with the shovel, the sound is all wrong.

Their Spanish was all f^cked up.

We are deprived of the full-on banana+anal sex scene. The bastards.

No nukes (WTF?)
