Nah, all the other mentions on this page are really far off base.

Which films do you think he's hit on?

I dunno, I think your opinion on Gosling vs. McConaughey could change on that once The Dallas Buyers Club comes out.

You could say that about anything that hasn't happened yet.

Das Boot (The Boat), 1981, a West Germany movie about a fascist submarine caught in Atlantic war in 1941/2. Watched it two nights ago and still can't understand how this claustrophobic fiick kept my attention for almost five hours. According to wikipedia the actors spent months on location, so their growing exhaustion as film progresses is no makeup. Great movie, IMHO.

Today I watched Spirited Away of all things. A friend of mine nagged me to watch it for ages and lent me the DVD the other day, so I figured I'd give it a go. I've made a few rather negative comments about generic anime in the past but to call this generic would be a big fat lie because it's really quite brilliant. Well-written, well-animated, well-dubbed and altogether very well-rounded. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I'd recommend it to anyone, even someone who hates everything remotely Japanese.

If you liked that, check out Princess Monoke. It's by the same director, Hayao Miyazaki, and it's even better. Miyazaki is a ****ing genius, and just about everything he touches is gold.

I've got two Japanese films on DVD which I've never watched, Spirit in the Shell and Blood the Last Vampire. They came with a magazine.

I'm assuming that's Ghost In the Shell (or at least that's what it's generally translated as)? If so, stop typing, and go watch it, and Blood the Last Vampire. They both rule, and are in no way Naruto/Bleach/Inu Yasha/etc/etc/etc style anime stereotypes.
