I have watched the first several times and thought it was awesome but I have yet to get around to the other film (started several times but owing to lack of sleep never got far)/book/manga.

Really, in concept, it's amazing.
But when they put it to film...
I actually laughed when I watched it.

Well, then you should probably stay away from Ichi the Killer.

The most disgusting (mainstream, released in the U.S.) Japanese movie is Audition.


As for BR, 2 sucked, now doubt.
The manga (plural, manga) was OK, but it was a little too hardcore for me. I haven't been interested enough to find the novel, though I hear it's good.
I enjoyed the first movie, especially Beat Takeshi.

However, this movie came out like 10 years ago. It's old stuff.

ichi the killer is one of the lamest movies i have ever seen.... a lot of sword cuts and a million litres of blood don't make a movie cool or scary....

I laughed a few times while watching BR, but I didn't like it.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.
