The director behind classic hong kong action films such as Hard Boiled, The Killer, Bullet in the Head, Face/Off, and A Better Tomarrow.
John Woo's films revolutionised action movies and inspired other directors such as Quentin Tarantino and the Wachowski brothers with thier dramatic storylines and action scenes that showed characters using two guns at once.
He recently has been making Hollywood action movies in the US, even though most people argue that his work in hong kong was his best work.

A creation of Massa Kim after witnessing a nigger's obsession for meat.
The John Burger consists of a meat patty in between two more meat patties, so that you will never run out of meat.

John: Damn, there is no more bacon on this sandwich. *throws the sandwich on the ground and steps on it*
Brasil: Dude, think about your starving brothers in Africa.
John: I don't eat a sandwich if it runs out of meat.
MassaKim: Hey John, I'll create a burger that has a meat patty in between two meat patties, so that you never run out of meat, and call it the John Burger.
Brasil: Surely is good.
John: Thank you Massa Kim. You are a genius.

To Cheers John is to respond to a terribly boring/unnecessary story to which the user can make no other comment. For a comment made which has no comedy value whatsoever.
Guys guess what, I woke up at nine this morning.
Cheers John
My mum just got back from shopping, she bought a carton of orange juice.

Arguably the father of Independent Filmmaking, John Cassavetes is one of the best directors ever. Known for his uncompromising, deep character studies, long winded and revealing dialogue, a hand held documentary style, and gritty realism, Cassavetes is still one of the most relevant and thoughtful Directors to ever live.
Also acted in many more mainstream films, such as Rosemary's Baby and The Dirty Dozen. His great acting roles sometimes overshadow his amazing job as a Director, and his movies are something that need to be explored even more.
His movies do not necessarily leave you breathless like a great Spielberg film, but they explore man's insecurities, there delusions, there behavior, and above all, their weaknesses and how you, as the viewer, can learn from them and truly make your life better. Cassavetes work takes multiple viewing to understand, but once you do, you're life will change for the better.
Whether or not he's an actor or a Director, he was a truly thoughtful and insightful artist, who's work has been foreshadowed for far too long. Forget Psychoanalysis. Want to examine your own life and enlighten yourself a better way? Cassavetes is your answer.
