Trying to pick something that will fill my need for a badass action movie.
Sort of like Die Hard, but I've already seen all of those.
James Bond movies have all that.

The Machine Girl (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=eSpCWJnnWVI) I've wanted to watch it for so long, I even downloaded it because it looked potentially like thre greatest movie in existence.
So much so that I refrained from watching it until I could do so in the proper set-up, maybe some drugs, tons of munchies and this friend of mine who's fucking crazy and has nice boobs.
Undead (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undead_(film)) Very, very fun movie. Get's a bit slow near the end.

Shoot em up IS A COMEDY. And it's really funny. It's notstop laughter.
I LOVE the Bourne series...unfortunately if you look at it, most of it isn't action...however, the action it does have is insane.
Crank, yes. Non stop action, it's nearly comedy, but still awesome.
The newest rambo sucked.

actually a while ago, i was thinking about great headshot fest movies of the 70's 80s and 90s and pretty much concluded that there were 5 actors which made up most of them:
stallone
schwarznegger
norris
van damme
seagal
willis
so just look up their filmographies
though there are some older good ones too, i really liked some classics like The guns of navarone and Where eagles dare
also, have a look at The Nest (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0280990). its a cult french action film thats pretty cool
Strapping Young Lad
2008-12-07, 19:19
uh, that's 6 actors...
Other than that you're right. Seagal makes some of the funniest movies and his newer movies have some really cool action scenes.

Ichi the Killer
Battle Royal
And I second The Nest, as you might be wary of foreign films (most are). Extremely good shoot-em-up action flick.
love that movie
Although I agree, it doesn't exactly fit the criteria for gore.

District B13 is awesome. Even though I kind of dislike parkour, I still found the movie excellent.
By the same writer, Luc Besson, the film "Taken" starring Liam Neeson is great as well.
the Kill Bill flicks should fill the op's needs...
