Bottom of the list, Doc. If it gets too long we might just boot you off.
I have the support of El presidente, mehro.
don't make me send you to the newbies.
oh, and RAN was a cinematic tour de force.
Anyone ever watch Kurosawa's film Dreams? Some wonderful vignettes in that one.

It has. The one with Scorcese is brilliant for example.
Yes, watch it again. I thought it was very well paced and easy to follow, not too aggressive or overwhelming. Cinematically, it was a masterpiece and all, I can honestly say it's as good as anything I've seen in that department, too. I'm actually thinking of watching Kagemusha again.
What did you think of Seventh Seal?
Alright. Who the feck's been ghosted. The thread has a page 54 and yet Doc's post is the last one?
That's some old posts by Revelz and his different usernames, Suresh.

You should post in here more regularly, you daft sod.
Favourite Kurosawa then?
my favourite was the one in the little village..with the funeral procession.
it looked so beautiful that it made me want to give up the modern world and live there.
Am I the only one who found the jester in Ran incredibly annoying? I liked the film but not more than Seven Samurai.
Sanjuro, but I have a soft spot for Samurai movies and I haven't seen too many of his films. Should see Seven Samurai, which would probably become my favourite film of all time.
I know, Spoons, I am a daft sod...I'm working on getting more posts in, but for now I've got to get back to work.
T'was good to e-see y'all again.
I've seen it before, I watched because of the sad news this week. I've always rated Bergman more as a scriptwriter than a director, but this one is beautifully done too. You would like it, I reckon.
Ah. It was annoying me.
Seven Samurai is brilliant. Ran's my fav thus far, though.
Seen it, Cinc. I liked it. Might watch Wild Strawberries tonight.
Word
Have you been living a non e-life lately?
I might end up watching Dr. Strangelove today finally. There is something about it that just doesn't make me want to watch it, a mysterious movie virus of sorts
Oh, do that. this is one of those movies where i had to check the title, it is called "End of the Day" in Hungarian. Fantastic.
Well?
Oh! Off to the PM box!
I found Seven Samurai a harder watch. . .which will probably surprise most people. And I didn't mind the jester at all. Thing is directors lighten films up with these types of characters. In Seven Samurai Kikuchiyo(?), was the joker. I think both films would've been too harsh without those characters. I reckon if Kurosawa made Seven Samurai in the 70's + that it probably would've been as good cinematically. Both great films.
I haven't seen Yojimbo yet.
So I've heard, yes
Is it one of those movies which you have to watch twice to really appreciate it?
Was away for 3 weeks or so. Ended up part of the Far East tour.
As in United's?
No. But you'll watch it many times because it's so bloody good.
There, I was looking forward to a good movie until you jinxed it
feck's sake!
feck's sake!
What's the Peter Sellars film called in which he was an Indian character?
I remember enjoying it as a kid.
he he he. Fred The Bin Dipper would've taken that literally.
Just checked he was called 'Hrundi V. Bakshi'. Remember it being hilarious. Would recommend it to the Indians on here. . .I think they'll love it.
Yes, but you'll get the humour of it the first time around too. There are lot more going on though, so that might need repeats.
It is The Party
Talking of movies with Indianness, why was Bend It Like Beckham such a huge grosser in the UK? I found it cringeworthy
Excellent
I'm watching this in a few moments
I haven't seen BILB. . .nor will I ever do so. Most of the highest grossing films are pretty lame. Probably helped that it had Beckham in the title.
I may have watched like half an hour of it
Sports and movies rarely work. Unless ofcourse it's boxing

Of course is two words.
Raging Bull and Rocky are both classics. Cinderella Man's a good watch, too, though not their league. As for other sports. . . Shoalin Soccer? but it's hardly the same thing, I guess. When We Were Kings is a brilliant sport-doc, by the way and a must for Ali fans.
Spoony, there's a match on.
You liked Shaolin Soccer? Probably the most clueless Academy nomination that I've seen. Another highly rated sports related gibberish was Jerry Maguire
I found Million Dollar Baby worthwhile too. The first 4 Rocky movies were good, the remaining 2 weren't

Not seen SS. It's on my harddrive, though.
Is it on MUTV, Mehro?
Is it on MUTV, Mehro?
Yes it is. Anderson's playing and I can't see it because my work computer wont' let me install anything on it.
Anderson is playing, and he aint that bad either. Martin has an off day though, just as Bardsley. Pique is class.
And Gibson is quite good again.
What's the score then?
0-0 Why aren't you watching it?
