NetFlix and MirrorMask

[michimoro]

Well... I joined NetFlix.

As a result, I am now getting the chance to see several of those classic, cult-followed movies that I've never seen while growing up.

MirrorMask, though a newer one, was first on my list (well, second if you count Doctor Who: The Three Doctors

I got new hair!

It's all long curly now.

Mindy is also getting us a new playstation 2 tonight, since our old one is about to die.

Depends on how many samurai flicks you've seen/would like to see...

Classics of Akira Kurosawa:
The Seven Samurai
Throne of Blood (an adaptation of MacBeth)
Yojimbo (inspiration behind the Eastwood classic "Fistful of Dollars")
Sanjuro (sequel to Yojimbo)
The Hidden Fortress (inspired many elements of Star Wars)
Ran (adaptation of King Leer)

Other classic samurai movies/series:
Samurai Rebellion
Samurai I, II, and III (a movie about Musashi Miyamoto, the famous swordsman and author of The Five Rings)

That's what comes to mind right off-hand while I'm at work...

Oh! Samurai flics!

I'll have to had those to my list.

I know I've already seen Ran, but I will have to check the others out.

That also reminds me, I should add Shogun to my list. I have the book lying around somewhere, and had only gotten to see a small part of the movie.

I also once saw a movie about a blink samurai... but I can't remember what it was called. Should be easy enough to find out, though.
