By AARON MESH

1. Willie Nelson's 4th of July Picnic: Drunk fiddlers and topless groping. Say it with a shrug: "Oh, Texas!" Laurelhurst.

2. The Strangers: Masked visitors interrupt a Joanna Newsom dance party. Academy, Valley.

3. Love and Honor: A blind samurai can still cry manly tears. Clinton Street.

4. Son of Rambow: Children re-create First Blood, with fewer steroids. Academy, Kennedy School, Laurelhurst, Mission, St. Johns, Valley.

5. Bigger, Stronger, Faster*: Bodybuilders re-create Rocky, with even more steroids. (They are not vegans.) Laurelhurst.
