Oh yeah? I was into that for a while, but I stopped. I picked up a Criterion Collection copy of Seven Samurai when I was at it. The subtitling was slightly different than the version I saw when I first watched the movie, but it's still a really nice set.

I've got that one awesome movie, good set. Got quite a few Criterions. It's cheaper and less frustrating than Joes, believe it or not.

I'm a cheapskate though so if I really get interested in something, I'll wait for for a really good deal on it. I think I got Seven Samurai for $20. I was going to get the Criterion Collection version of Yojimbo and ... the sequel. I think AMC was playing Ran during Christmas time, I'd like to get that too. I was reading up on Kurosawa when I caught part of Ran and I want to watch Kagemusha now.

I know a used place with great prices. Matter of fact, I got all three of those there (not at the same time & Yojimbo/Sanjuro is the box set) and the cost was around $45 - which for Criterions is not bad at all. Kagemusha was also very good, first & only Kurosawa I've seen in color so far. Though, it's not quite the same as his earlier samurai work. Ran is on my list but, I think that one is going to take awhile. Here's all my Criterions; rsg

I didn't realize that both you Cobra were waiting on me to update the scenario to send out orders, I sincerely apologize. In my pm, I said that the strike game would be just Joe and Cobra, and that the targets would stay the same, so I assumed you guys would just send out orders to take out the Cobra characters, and vice versa, while disregarding the IG characters.
But I can see how it was confusing, and you guys didn't want to take the chance of sending out incorrect orders, which would have been a complete mess. I should have been more clear so that you didn't have to wait on me, I'm sorry guys. I really appreciate how cool you all were about it, both the Joes and Cobra.

Yeah I think Ran and Kagemusha are a bit darker than some of his earlier stuff. Ran is sooooo bleak, but it's very good. I need to see Red Beard too, and re-watch some of the others like Hidden Fortress, Rashomon and Throne of Blood. |

Red Beard is excellent, I'd say it's one of Kurosawa's best.
