Ikiru was good. It's about a civil servant who finds out he's dying from cancer and how he changes his life in his last few months. Very different from most Kurosawa since it takes place in modern times there are no samurai.
nopantsdave:
Oh, and I think I am going to be buying the new version of Ran. It comes out the 22nd, but I don't know that I'll have the extra money just then, but by the end of the year I should have it. It's a two disc set with a bunch of extra features.....good stuff. So, I will make sure to get you my old copy of it when I get the new one.
in my ongoing tribute to corporate america i bring you another segment of "stupidity inc."

So the stuffed shirts goofed (and admitted as much by fixing the problems), but did they rescind your write-up?
lightbulbjack:
The Top is far to roid buff to chance an up-close assignation. Im thinking to using some sort of high powered ranged weapon like a trebuchet.
My contacts overseas have informed me of a facility in Cambodia that trains monkeys to be sappers. Now normally I would dream of blowing up any sort of animal, but the Top represents a clean and present danger that calls for desperate measures.
