[ask_rabber]

Just saw it, and I suggest you do also. I didn't not like anything about the movie.

So.. see it.

[Sovereign]

Fine, ill go see it, just because you said so :p

[Grav]

Otaku lovers across the world like this movie.

[J_iceman]

I didn't not like anything about the movie. ...............so you DO like something about it??!! O_o (negative pluse negative equels positive)

just mess'in with you

people said that movie had really good scenery, just a bad plot !

[KagomJack]

I am gonna go see it. It looks good.

[ask_rabber]

Thanks iceman, you pointed out exactly what I was saying :-/.

[Jamesadin]

I guess I'll move it to Media forum.

[Rurouni Storm]

Otaku lovers across the world like this movie.

People who love fanboys love this movie? Because that's what you literally said. ;)

It looks interesting from the previews. I'll probably end up seeing it.

[J_iceman]

good movie then?? i'll watch it!!.....when it comes on dvd!!
theaters are too expensive!! 14 bucks...if you dont have a student ID.

[pnaidork]

i think it looks kinda stupid.. but ill trust you and go see it. meh.

[WetWired]

Yes! This movie is good.

Rurouni, I was under the impression that meanings of the word otaku range from anime fan to obsessed person to house. Maybe he's saying that even people that like to stay at home like this movie? :p

[Rurouni Storm]

The word actually just means a "fanboy". It has nothing to really do with anime.

[WetWired]

The word actually just means a "fanboy". It has nothing to really do with anime.Except in the US, where it is assumed to reffer to anime fandom.

[velocity]

Great movie A+++

[J_iceman]

you think we should get a poll here ??

[Dan XIII]

The word actually just means a "fanboy". It has nothing to really do with anime.Except in the US, where it is assumed to reffer to anime fandom.yes but it is possible to be a car otaku,a computer otaku,etc.It basically means you are obsessed with something.so it basically does mean fanboy.

[WetWired]

What part of "in the US" do you not understand?

[Admiral_Jason]

OK TC has finally scored a classic movie for the first time since Top Gun. This movie was just so fucking orgasmic on so many levels. The battle scenes alone would make it a classic.

[zagggon]

Ima have to see i then.

[RoboticSilence]

This is truly the best movie I have seen. It was very inspiring. I highly recommend all of you to view it. It is absolutely wonderful.

[Rurouni Storm]

Better than Braveheart?

[RoboticSilence]

I believe so... but it may just be my love for the Japanese culture and history that causes this judgement. I have great respect for the honor and discipline of the samurai.

[Adrenachrome]

I liked the movie, but The similarities to so many other Civil War movies kept me from loving it.

[RoboticSilence]

This is a very different kind of civil war... this movie is not a Civil War movie... it is a movie about a civil war and a man who finds love in a people.

[tidus2005]

yeah it is a great movie but i dont know about it being better than brave heart becuase simply braveheart is and awesome movie but this movie is almost as good. i am very impressed and suprised that tom cruise actually made a good samurai.

[RoboticSilence]

This movie also made me finally realize how great of an actor Tom Cruise really is. He was magnificent.

This movie also contains no genital mutilation, so that makes it better than Braveheart.

[zagggon]

Omfg dont dare try to say that this is as good as BH.... BRAVEHEART PWNZ ALL THE SHIZZ>...

[RoboticSilence]

Why don't you go see it first before you make assumptions?

[Eddie_Perez]

Yeah, I saw it yesterday and I must say that movie pwnd. It was sad when the guy died (forgot his name, supa samurai guy), and appearently there are problems when there are 18 year old empererors...

[Jimbo]

Ill go see it but I doubt it's better than BH...

[J_iceman]

i cant believe that THIS movie is actually the best movie of the year??? i GOT to see it this weekend then !!

[ask_rabber]

Yeah, I saw it yesterday and I must say that movie pwnd. It was sad when the guy died (forgot his name, supa samurai guy), and appearently there are problems when there are 18 year old empererors...

KATSUMOTO!

[J_iceman]

wait wait, tom cruise dies in the movie like that other guy in braveheart??

[tidus2005]

no tom cruise doesnt die the leader of the samurai dies

[RoboticSilence]

The Dalai Lama was 3 years old when he was proclaimed so.

[Randuin]

I saw it the day it came out, purely awesome, better than LOTR

[Titusfied]

I saw it last night, and I'm really happy I did. I was going to see LoTR, but my date didn't want to see it. She and I both really enjoyed this movie. :D

I don't know if I would go as far as Braveheart, but it is a contender to Gladiator, IMHO. I'm a huge movie guru, and this just didn't pump me up like Braveheart ever could, hence, not as good to me. Then again, I'm a little biased towards Braveheart, and I highly doubt any movie will be better, in my mind at least.

The fighting scenes were exquisit, and just the fact that Tom Cruise can actually do all the shit he did, it flat out jaw dropping. I saw a few interviews with him since the movie, and I am back to really enjoying him as an actor.

Good flick, highly recommended.

Now I just have to see LoTR and I will do a comparison. I've always loved the fantasy types of plots and movies better, but LoTR really has something to live up to now.

[J_iceman]

all good reviews, i must see this move.....before LOTR??? you think??

[Titusfied]

Well, I did see it before LoTR, but not because that was the order of interest for me. It just worked out that way, but I'm actually glad it did, because if not, I probably would not have seen this movie until it came out on DVD, and it would have lost some of its effectiveness, like most movies do outside the theater.

[Randuin]

I like the fact that it wasn't based on shit hype or relied on sex to sell

[haplo]

awsome fucking movie!! i never realy liked tom till this but he proved his worth. this movie kicks ass right along side BH!!!

[KagomJack]

in my opinion, that was the second best movie of 2003 and all time

LotR:RotK is the best of 2003 and all time in my opinion

[J_iceman]

BH as braveheart?? is it as good or better??

[undeadzombieguy]

nice movie yes, saw it last week.
The last battle reminded me of kenshin... actually the whole movie reminded me of kenshin ^_^
Also the armors they wear are looking very cool

[Titusfied]

Finally saw LoTR last night, and I have to say it, but it was definitely better than Last Samurai, IMHO. I could have done without the long-ass drawn out last 45 minutes or so that seemed to be in slow motion the whole time, but it did put closure on the movie, so in a sense I am happy.

Both movies were awesome, I'd recommend both to anyone, but for me, LoTR was fucking GODLY!

[Froggiemama2004]

I thought the Last Samurai was a pretty awesome dramatic fighting movie. I also think Tom Cruise is HOT....lol

[JohnnyTAE]

I think it's better then return of the boring ass endings (cuz it was just nothing special) but yeah man Last Samurai is crazy good katsumoto's son was crazy.

[WetWired]

Yes, I saw it again today with my brother. Definately one of the best movies of the season.
