Ok. I'm leaving Korea in about 5 days and I bought a 500Gig external harddrive to download movies. (I'm way out of the movie loop and have no idea what new good movies have been out over the past year or two)
I want to take advantage of the internet speed. Also, where I'm going I'm not sure what I'm going to be able to access Internet wise.

So...any movies currently available as torrents that you would suggest.

I downloaded Inglourious Bastards and enjoyed it quite a bit. Art, suspence, action, goofy comedy...not big on romance.

Thanks!

Gran Torino

These are two of the best movies I've watched recently.

Public Enemies is good - you should read the book after seeing the movie though

list of most downloaded torrents. no link to the actual movies themselves, just statistics. I would recommend using demonoid.com and can give you a private invite if you need one.

Well seeing as how you are coming to Korea there is a Korean movie I would have to recommend- 'The Classic'. A bit melodramatic, but overall a very good slice of Korean life. It has a little bit of everything.

Aside from that just bring the ole simple favorites from back home.
